Yeah, why not. But why AFC? That would mean we'd be called Association Football Club Coventry which would make sense if we were French, but we're not.. What about just Coventry Football Club? Snappy, simple and actually in English.
I just don't think it would work. It's a nice idea, but most people find excuses to not turn up now. Never mind scrapping around in the lower leagues.
I think you'd still get a few thousand. If it came down to it, I would. Doubt I'd be alone.
It would never work.
The people of Coventry were apathetic to the club whilst it was in the Premiership. A non-league club would remain a non-league club and would never rise up the leagues.
All us Coventry fans want is success, you can tell that by the away attendances and the home leg of the JPT, the fans will always be there we will not just disappear into thin air, just saying that this club will never be the same because we moved from it roots, the Stoke Peugeot plant would of been a far better option than some retail park on the outskirts
What about Racing Club Coventry, that will keep all the ones who live in Warwickshire happy, and we have the name Coventry to keep all the ones in Coventry happy.
I am writing this after a few whiskies, but have i hit on a great idea

Dowells Fields or Stoke Road. They were our first grounds. Change happens. Sometimes for the better.

I don't have the romantic view of life outside of the football league than some have, but let's get serious for a minute - if we reformed in the BSP, or even the league below, we would be the biggest club to EVER play at that level in the modern era, by a mile. The idea that a club with our fan base would not eventually make it back to the league is a joke. If we played in the BSP Premier next season we'd get 6K per week easily, that would be MASSIVE by that league's standards. Let's not get silly.
A few weeks ago we had 31000 at home, and now people are saying we wouldn't be big enough to rise out of the conference? Quite possibly some of the most idiotic comments I have ever seen polluting this thread.
Let's get another thing straight, a new club would be called Coventry City because the title would pass over or be purchased. It would be the same club in spirit and all the history would pass over to this new club. It would bounce back eventually because none of the other clubs at that level could compete with a club that is so much bigger than them.
don't think we would get 6000, what did we get at burton about 5K?? That would be a big game for us if we dropped that far?
Personally I have been depressed since we dropped out of the premier league never mind when we went down to league 1 so to drop a further 3-4 leagues wouldn't be great. I am still hoping there are options for our club.
Build a stadium using what?
A digger,a crane, some concrete steel and bricks
