I'm working today, so missing the game and am actualy quite relived, I'm expecting it to be dismal anyway
Haven't even been able to give my season ticket away
I have no enthusiasm for today's game at all. Not one jot.
I feel like an old, worn out boxer, on the ropes in the 12th round, dazed and spent and just waiting for the knock out blow.
Can't believe we are back here again fearing our future, so soon after returning home.
Wonder if the off field stuff will affect the on field stuff today. Get the feeling the crowd is going to be very flat and it's hard to get at all excited. Not even as if the team have been cheering us up of late is it!
Maybe a good peformance and a win might cheer us up a bit.
Completely agree Otis.
Feeling throughly depressed about the whole thing.

Perspective guys - it's raining, City are playing Crawley - but although we are all worried about our club, it/we will still be about in the next year or two moaning about a full back called O'Regan or a donkey of a centre forward called Smithers. Get a grip !!!!!
We'll still be there though won't we, suckers that we are. :facepalm:
its so quiet on here 3 hours since the previous post I think I feel like so many other fans just bewilderment doom gloom despondancy (and thats nothing to do with the possibility of having to watch swanson or tudgay later)
Yeah....unfortunately my youngest wants to go again.....I wonder how many trips to the toilet it will be today :facepalm:

Each to their own, of course, but I'm always excited on a match day. My lad is already saying "how many minutes before we go?".
I'm always excited too, Torch, but all this franchising and takeover and buyout talk and Ranson nonsense and the concern once agian over our future, just weighs you down and with it also all coming so closely after all the positivity and euphoria we enjoyed, just makes it feel so much worse.
Yes, we know it is perspective, but we go to the football to get away from all this crap going on in the world.
It's our own little time capsule where we can just concentrate on the football and nothing else.
Have had deaths in the family where it's all I have been able to think about 24-7. Going to the football gives you that little bit of respite and just helps you focus your thoughts elsewhere for a couple of hours.
Unless of course you want us to go to the game and spend the 90 mins worrying about mortgages and debt and poverty and hunger and innocent people being beheaded for no reason?
And this is a football forum at the end of the day. Think we do have things very much in perspective, but football is an island unto itself.
To be honest, the positivity of our return burst like a balloon when only 11K turned up to the next match. "Business as usual".
Agree that all the Wasps and Ranson nonsense is something else we don't need, but as I've been banging on about for years, we don't own our own ground and that's alwayys a danger It's why I've always disagreed with the "we don't need to own our ground" point of view. If Wasps do take over then personally, I hope Fisher and Seppala indeed do have plans for a new stadium for COVENTRY CITY and no one else.
Anyway, still looking forward to the game. Particularly hoping that Conor Thomas is still out.
I offered my next door neighbour my ticket, a champagne weekend in Paris, £100 spending money, a packet of sunflower seeds and the use of my wife for the next 5 weekends, but he still wasn't interested.
4 weeks ago we returned we knew it would not be all easy going but there was hope, despite not knowing the finer details this sale to wasps could condemn us to the lower leagues.

Well.....yes, all except for the sunflower seeds of course.Is this offer valid for anyone else?
We can but hope.Perhaps he is worried that five forays with your missus would result in an irretrievable breakdown in your marriage.
We can but hope. ;-)
