    Over The Hill XI-Take No Arjan's!

    Can't remember if this one got done, but the criteria is the biggest possible gulf between their peak & when we signed them (not just old people who were never that great in the first place.) My Pitiful Pensioners: GK-Andy Goram. Was blinding at Oldham & had some good times in the SPL when it...

    Les Sealey

    Randomly, there was a brassy woman just on Real Housewives of Cheshire claiming that she moved up there from Essex "when my son signed for Manchester Utd". A bit of research, and we'd worked out that she was talking about Remi Sealey, who seems to be the son of (also in the show) Joe Sealey, who...

    Tony Sheridan

    Reading up on some of our old players the other day, I stumbled over this article: Tony Sheridan: 'I'd like to be remembered as a player people loved to go and watch' He was a youngster I was really excited about and thought was going to be a star for us. There was a bit of a buzz about him, he...

    David Smith-What Went Wrong?

    Just watching the youtube of Speedie's goals and Smith really stood out as a creative force. He was one of my favourite players when I was a kid, yet faded and disappeared before becoming a jobbing winger at a number of clubs in the second tier. I seem to remember that he suddenly stopped...

    Our Youngest Ever Back Four?

    Two 20 year olds, a 21 year old and a 19 year old. Even better, 3 of the 4 are our player. Glad to hear that Joe Royle has told us that Pennington's best position is CB (although why he hasn't played there before for us is questionable!). Can anyone think of a younger City back four that we've...

    As a tribute to the CCFC fan going on hunger strike, Channel 4 are tonight broadcasting the above legendary episode of The Simpsons. Enjoy, it's one of the last great episodes! :D

    Fisher Shooting for Prize

    Tim Fisher has sensationally revealed that his actions over the past 12 months have in fact all been part of his concerted effort to win the prestigious "Most Lies Told This Year" award. Speaking exclusively to some guy, he said: "It's all true. Or is it? Ha ha, you don't know, that's the...

    City to Exit Administration?

    Somebody from the Sky Blues Trust told me today that he'd met with Tim Fisher earlier in the week and Fisher had claimed that they were "Going to pay our debts and exit administration shortly". Can anyone else shed any light on the assertion? The Trust member himself seemed a bit sceptical...

    2013 Cricket Season

    I feel much more like talking about cricket than football so I thought I'd start a thread for the season which started properly today. I'm a massive Warwickshire fan and hopefully so are quite a lot of other users of this forum. But I also follow all cricket (I manage the database for a...

    SISU Out Balloons

    Where did they come from? :) Ingenious idea, I have to say; small enough to fit a load of them in your pocket so easy to smuggle in. A lot more impact than the banners due to the way they bobbled around the crowds. I loved the way that there were loads of kids with them at half-time...

    Home Record: We Get What We Deserve

    One of the major reasons why our poor form is so much worse than the away form is due to the utterly terrible support offered at home. I don't mean the low gates-I mean those fans who go to matches seemingly with the sole purpose of booing the players and getting on their backs. If I was an...

    Radio 5: League 1 Feature

    They're talking about L1 for the next segment. They've just spoken about it being a 7 horse race, so count us out-but did say that if we beat Swindon tomorrow, "We can start talking about an 8-horse race". Have to agree with them that tomorrow is a must-win!

    Cameron and Marton

    Nathan Cameron: 4 games, 3 clean sheets. Not bad for a rusty player. Maybe people will get off his back and give him a chance? As for Martin, I lost track of the number of times that Clive said "good tackle by Martin" and he made a clearance off the line to boot. It was a bruising...

    Eastwood

    I just mentioned in passing to someone on a different (cricket) forum that I was a Coventry fan. Quick as a flash, he said he was a Southend Utd fan, that they'd smash Crewe for us in the JPT-and asked if we'd mind taking Freddy back off them! Fair to say his second spell at the club hasn't gone...

    Comparisons

    Why on earth has the forum been swamped with comparison threads? At least they're talking about football I suppose rather than the rent fiasco, but I do find them incredibly tedious. You can't really compare players like Ndlovu and Hutch as they played in different era's, for example. Why...
