    Gyokeres switches to 'top' agent

    Imho, this doesn't appear to be good news, re keeping our star player. Players generally hire new agents in order to get better contracts or lucrative transfers. MR has already been quoted as saying that players shouldn't be asking for telephone number salaries, and to be realistic because we...

    King talks accounts and predictions

    Oddly he says this: Moving forward, future funding requirements will be provided by the new owner via the new parent undertaking CovCityCo Ltd without incurring interest or management charges Erm, Doug you own us, but you make it sound like someone else does ?? Probably just badly phrased...

    Southampton sack Jones

    Well aren't we all shocked by this lol Lots of people, myself included, thought this was a terrible appointment at the time, and so it turned out. Whilst boasting of his top European credentials, in 3 months, he oversaw a terrible run of results, culminating in a defeat at home against 10 men...

    Hughton sacked...could MR be a target ?

    It's fair to say MR has done an amazing job with us, but would he be tempted if a club the size of Notts Forest came sniffing around with bundles of cash ? Personally i hope that he learned his lesson first time round, with failure at Huddersfield and Scunthorpe proving that the grass definitely...

    Fan Engagement Index 19/20

    Saw this Index in an article about the 'big 6' money grabbers, and how low they were positioned in the index. I had to see where Cov were, obviously. Turns out we are 68th out of 91. That's actually higher than i expected. It seems there are much shadier owners than ours...

    Pearson signs 3 year contract

    Gregor Rioch

    I seem to remember he was a highly regarded academy manager here, brought through some excellent young players, and we were gutted when he decide to move on. Just by chance i read an article about Wigan (where he moved to to take up their academy manager post) and wondered if he regretted the...

    Wilfred Bony?

    Now training with Newport after being released by Swansea. Presumably just keeping fit, and very unlikely to actually sign for them, but he's only 30yo, cost £28 million 5 years ago, and still hasn't found a club yet. Improbable transfer though. Wilfried Bony: The Premier League striker and...

    JH and Garry Thompson - 1981

    Legendary Coventry City chief’s astonishing threat to star striker JH's investment in US soccer was a very poor decision, but i didn't realise things were THAT bad at the time, and that JH was quite so ruthless.

    Anyone now thinking that SISU will jack the whole thing in ?

    Now that it seems SISU have gambled poorly and blew their chance of buying ACL, why would they want to stick around ? Most believe they were after assets for their investors, and to be frank, there are now none left at ccfc. What are the chances they will sell up or even liquidate ?

    Marlon King's appeal refused

    So i was reading this article on the bbc sport site regarding MK and his latest conviction, and guess who one of the three judges was (under the heading 'deliberately dangerous driving')...... Personally glad his sob story didn't work...he may have been a decent footballer, but in real life, he...
