Is he a lot younger?

I believe he is 26. His cousin Melusi is also very skillfull.

1) they have been touting for supporters on the back of the Ccfc mess, and have stated that it was set up in response to the Ccfc debacle

2) I responding to tonylinc who stated "Your Sky Blues have gone never to return, someone is trying to ensure a Coventry team actually playing in Coventry" which kind of implies that there are no other Coventry based teams,

Set up because they were disgruntled with CCFC like a lot of us are. Nothing wrong with letting people know they exist IMO. Not really touting. They're not exactly being pushy about it.

Second point is fair. There are a few Coventry based teams and even more in Warwickshire for those that live outside the city.

I cant help but think you are being used by Higgs / ACL in allowing you usage of the Higgs centre.

If they are not touting why is he on here? Isn't the leader of this rabble a man utd fan? As supporters this is where we let ourselves down. If this guy tried this at west ham, Leeds etc. he'd be told where to stick it.

Can i ask why the green and Red? surely sky blue would be the preffered option?

can i ask if Rangers won their league at a canter last season and why you havent paid out on your bet ?

West Ham and Leeds still have their clubs locally.

Must admit need to watch some football on a Saturday but Utd and playing in Red no I couldn't do it all the best anyway

Hmmm conjecture, thinking about it?

 

[Greggs]

Grendel, you really are a an idiot! Your Sky Blues have gone never to return, someone is trying to ensure a Coventry team actually playing in Coventry and all you can do is to make a daft comment........Que.....give me the evidence that CCFC will never return to Coventry!

What's wrong with Cov Sphinx?

 

[Greggs]

We have Cov Sphinx. Cov Utd isn't needed

I thought that initially but the kit looks good in the civic colours.

No football club is ever needed. This is non league, not premier league. There are more clubs than just Sphinx in Coventry. Sphinx are just the highest ranked.

If this dispute drags on all season - what's the prospects then?
Are you all prepared to soldier on in the likelihood of five years - possibly forever - out of Coventry?
Or do you embrace the idea of a Phoenix club? (and TAKING BACK our heritage from Sisu, who have kidnapped it for the moment)?
Coventry United/Sphinx may be our best bet for a reformed CCFC. With discussions with them about changing to Sky Blue, subtle name change. All up in the air I know.
But I doubt very many posters on here will want ANOTHER season like this one.
Without being over the top, CCFC as we know it, will be dead to a lot of fans if we go into a second season at Northampton.
We might not like it, but if this debacle goes on after Xmas, serious thought will have to be given to a 'reclaimed' CCFC back in Coventry, albeit, lower down the pyramid.
At least we'll be free of Sisu.
AND, I stress, we'll be looking to take back our history.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

The green and red are the Civic colours of Coventry City.
We all know Chris Owen well.

They were also the colours of my school, Woodlands in the late 60's/early 70's.

Does Woodlands still exist and are they still the school clours?

 

[ajsccfc]

It does (assuming you mean the place on Broad Lane where they do Powerleague now), although they call themselves and academy rather than school nowadays.

 

[torchomatic]

Not for me, but good luck and all that.
