Hi Stegosaurus here,

Seems like we signed a good player here. I am surprised he didn't join a bigger club than us. We must have threw every penny in the vaults at him with the Prince foraging around the back of the sofa for a few drachmas.
 
Jeez.

Coventry haven't been in the PL since (looks at notes...) 2000/01 season. Wednesdayeque.

And yet, we (who have been there many times in that period and are in the midst of a takeover) apparently are less likely to be in the PL in the near future than them...

They did remarkably well to get to where they have in recent seasons against a backdrop of terrible ownership and stadium woes... but I had it as a plucky underdog story.

Strange set of fans.
They've thrown quite a lot at our fan base in those comments, but I'd invite them to have a look at their average attendance over the last 20 years and see how they stack up to ours...

Cheers Roy.
My 2 faves are, he wouldn't get in their team this season anyway, and United are a yo-yo club whereas Coventry can get up and establish themselves.

Yes that's so funny .It is obvious they have a problem with us .Calling us a yo yo club might be true but we do keep getting there where as they don't . Not bad from a club who not so long ago did not have a ground of their own to play in . Any way I would like to thank them for being our nursery club keep the good work up we might be back . By the way can any of you recommend any other players who are worthy of wearing the red and white shirt .
 
When they were in the First Division/early Prem, they'd get 13-14k each week.
Then for the last game of the season they'd get a full house and inevitably avoid relegation.
Same when the Ricoh opened. Full capacity as they all came in to marvel at their shiny new stadium, then back under 20k after a few months.
The words 'part timers' were never more apt.

Brummie wannabee wankers.

First? Doh! Anyway;

“Shows a lack of ambition to be honest. Sheff Utd will always be a yoyo club whereas we could go up and establish ourselves. i would be staying at City and pushing on”

I believe I have just found a supporter who is more delusional than the pigs! Is he honestly of the belief that Coventry are a bigger club than us? 😂😂

That was also a WTF moment for me too.

Not been in the Premier League since Richard Keys worked for Sky.

Keep haemorrhaging their best players each summer, yet somehow they are better placed than us who have parachute payments and Premier League infrastructure already in place.

With a population close to 350,000 their support is actually very poor.
 
How are we a sideways move? 😂. They were homeless and ground sharing with Northampton not too long ago
 
I am still amazed how many supporters of all football clubs are unable to grasp ‘freedom of contract’ and the fact that it affects all clubs equally.
If they have any anger about players running down their contract and leaving for free to negotiate their own terms with a new club,they should blame Jean-Marc Bosman and the ECJ not the player.This has been in place for nearly 20 years and people are still moaning and groaning about it instead of blaming their current employer for not planning in advance to lesson the blow.
 
Thanks Roy although I still think we have signed DanTDM by mistake.

O'Hare was very much liked at cov, we're just surprised he didn't go to a big club, instead of going sideways/ backwards and staying in the championship for their next four years.

Well in those next four years, you'll get to see him 8 times because you sure as fuck aren't going up 😂

How is it even sideways. Sheffield United has spent more seasons in the top flight than Coventry, won more trophies, has averaged bigger attendances, has produced better homegrown players and has more money currently to spend. On any criteria used to evaluate the "size" of a football club your club cannot match Sheffield United.
 
It tells you all you need to know really when they are situated in an enormous metropolitan area with six or seven football clubs very close by, and not one of them considers Coventry as "their main rival"
 
Evening gents.

Long time no speak. Always love reading these threads, especially when it's about us.

He's one of my favourite players ever. Grew a connection with the club like very few before him. Whether that's his celebration with sunglasses away at Birmingham, slicing his head open in a match for us (hence his scar) or performing on stage with Tom Grennan at Radio 1 Big Weekend. He's an iconic player for us.

A great player with great feet and a a relentless press. Before his injury he was the perfect attacking midfielder besides a real lack of goals. He gets an ACL injury and comes back scoring more goals in a matter of months than his entire career before.

He was well and truly phased out towards the end of last season and it was clear Robins knew he was gone. His only full game since Feb was against Manchester United at Wembley where he looked at home (until his penalty miss...).

Obviously lots of bitterness. I can almost guarantee Hamer (should he remain with you) gets a heroes welcome when we play and O'Hare will likely get booed. Had he left for £10m, no one would have bat and eyelid.

We will move on and have already spent a lot of the Gyokeres money again this summer. We hope he and Hamer move on (sorry) and we have another war chest of £15m+ to spend in sell on fees.

First Coventry fan i've seen put a levelled message out. Congratulations.

Hamer was like our Berge and Ndiaye last season. We cashed in before the contract expired.
O'Hare is like our McBurnie and Egan. It's expired and now we've lost for nothing.

It happens. Disappointing when it does. Don't get the salty comments all over twitter from you all, and the guy above you here. It's not our fault. Don't be mad at us.
