    Swindon

    When I booked 2 tickets online on Sunday, it was only showing about 30 seats left in the Arkell stand, so they should be opening up the open seating behind the goal soon.

    If jr ges against ccc

    Thanks for your comments OSB. It seems that EU law could be a key factor in what damages they would be able to pursue if they win the JR - and that alone adds years to the timescale. If - and it is a big if - the thinking is right, it means there is zero chance of SISU agreeing to any form of...

    Sisu boss Joy Seppala rejects council offer to play at Ricoh Arena rent-free

    Could this be it OSB? I've just copied this from another thread I just posted it onto... Apologies if this has been discussed and dismissed elsewhere already, but I'll float my theory anyway of just what SISU's strategy is... Their case for JR has 4 strands to it - most of the attention has...

    If jr ges against ccc

    Apologies if this has been discussed and dismissed elsewhere already, but I'll float my theory anyway of just what SISU's strategy is... Their case for JR has 4 strands to it - most of the attention has been on the loan itself and how ACL would re-finance the loan if it is found to be improper...

    Does Anyone Remember 'Happy' and His Regular Coach to Away Games?

    I remember Happy very clearly. Very early 70s, around the time we got into Europe, travelling on RHMS coaches from Pool Meadow. He was a larger than life character and looked out for the youngsters (which I was then - a long time ago!). Seem to recall he had a high-pitched voice. He seemed a...

    Question for those living outside of Coventry Re. the future of your support

    I appreciate the mention, Roger! That long journey to Cov is becoming a distant memory now. Although it might be marginally nearer to me, I also have zero intention of seeing us play at Northampton as it is simply wrong to play "home" games 30+ miles from Cov. As soon as we return to Cov, I will...

    How many are complete stay-aways this season?

    I've not been to a game yet this season. I hope to get to one or two away games, maybe Swindon in December. I no longer listen to live commentary, as refuse to subscribe to SBP. I no longer have any reason to visit the city of my birth, and that saddens me deeply. I've lost the habit of going to...

    Telegraph probe into Sky Blues administration raised in Parliament by Coventry MP Bob

    But surely this would represent the planned and repeated use of incorrectly registered players over several seasons, rather than it being the accidental consequence of an inherited mess, which is the way Fisher explained it? If so, are other clubs likely to take action against the club for the...

    Your Choice, Take 15 Point Deduction or ACL Sign CVA?

    Reject the CVA. There is a bigger picture in which pressure is coming to bear on SISU from different directions. By forcing the continuation of administration, that pressure increases. The greater the resistance to SISU's plans, the greater the scrutiny that will be focused on them. I live in...

    Away ticket priority

    For those of us who believe that NOPM is the right thing to do as it will help eventually force SISU to leave our club, it is essential that we do not get drawn into taking out club memberships to improve our chances of getting away tickets (members get them after ST holders but before general...

    Confirmed northampton

    This news hits a very personal nerve for me... My dad was born in Northampton and was a keen Cobblers fan in his youth. After the war, he moved to Coventry, had a family, started following the Sky Blues and encouraged me to support them. He retained a deep affection for Northampton but City...

    Will you support the new (old) owners or give up with CCFC?

    No money from me to the club until SISU go. No home games, whether at the Ricoh or elsewhere. No sky Blue Player, so no longer able to listen to live commentary. A few away games maybe (though my local venues have all gone up or down now - Pompey, Yeovil, Bournemouth!). I felt total despair when...

    Saving grace

    Or, better still, City of Coventry Football Club. And we save ourselves a quid down the line!

    Suggested protest

    Thank you Wingy for your compliment - though entirely undeserved, and I have no idea why I got the call from the Big Man! Aside from the fact that the dog was hassling me for a walk and the missus was waiting for a lift to church, the other thing that threw me was his opening line which was...

    Latest: Fisher says 'no chance' of CCFC playing at Ricoh

    Not sure if this fits into this thread, but do not know how to start another one anyway, so... My Sunday morning was just disturbed by a phone call from Tim Fisher! I'm sure he has made many of these but I was still taken aback. He said that over 1500 fans have already signed up to attend fans...

    Not one penny more

    I'm in as well. No more 'home' games until SISU are gone, just away games. And the Player subscription is going as well, which unfortunately will mean I cannot even listen to the games I am not attending!

    Let's Talk About Football

    Snap! I went with my old friend Shirish - not seen him for years. I've no idea where we got the tickets from but we realised outside the stadium that they were for the Spurs end! We managed to swap them with 2 Spurs fans and ended up down the side, towards the Cov end (where Houchen scored). In...

    Not under SISU

    Last season, I had a season ticket and went to about 18 matches. This season, I dropped the season ticket and went to 9 matches. The 5 at the Ricoh were just not enjoyable experiences - 4 defeats and a draw did not help! The 4 away I thoroughly enjoyed - including the wins at MK and...

    £60m debt. Sisu doubters proved correct

    Don't you mean 4.8 million + fees???

    It just gets worse....

    SISU have maybe missed a trick if - as appears to be the case - they have transferred all the player registrations from CCFC Ltd to CCFC Holdings Ltd. Their strategy appears to be like in the Banking crisis - leave all the bad stuff in CCFC and kill it off, take the good stuff to Holdings and...
