Coventry City to be shut out of Ricoh Arena

Recommended Posts

Hmmmm i'm in two minds, I hate Cov, with a passion - Don't really know why, I mean there is nothing to be jealous off (Absoloutely nothing), they don't have many fans, I really don't know why I hate them, I know a couple of Cov fans (Probably the only Cov fans :giggle) who are actually decent lads apart from supporting Cov (Mind you they are probably decent because they're hardly in a position to take the piss are they?).

Everyone wants to see their rivals doing bad, but I want have the rivalry there.

Saying that I wouldn't mind them playing Nuneaton or Hinckley, Basically i'd still have the rivalry there just not at Leicester's level - Far from it :giggle:

Better that you'd hoped eh?.

I thought they'd do ok, probably in the top half now.

Not without a win and five straight defeats.

League 1 goes one of two ways for teams who go down. In our first 8 games, we picked up 19 points and were top, they have 3 and are virtually bottom. Incredible really.

I didn't bother betting on Coventry being relegated last season because I thought 2/1 was took stingy - 2/1 didn't look to stingy when they were actually relegated, should have lumped on but I was too greedy - Gutted.

This season no-one apart from Bet Victor would take a bet on Coventry being relegated, seeing at Bet Victor is online and I had 2 online accounts as it is I didn't want to open another account, it was about 16/1 I think, gutted because it's looking quite likely even at this early stage.

Just looked at Oddschecker now for odds and Bet Victor isn't doing a relegation market for League One now either, its 1/100 on Betfair though if anyone fancies it? :unsure:

Nah, I'm not happy to see any big club fall. Coventry fans gave us stick and everything, but it's another game I'd miss going too. Can't believe how bad that club is at the minute.

We won't be going there for a good few years whether they go down or not.

it was a rivalry when we were playing each other and we struggled to beat them and they were giving us stick, but right now it's just not, they may as well not exist.

Same here. I've got a few Cov mates and at first it was funny but they're so bad it's not even fun taking the piss any more because they just agree.

Same here Cov are a bit like annoying family, can't stand living with 'em, yet... Wouldn't want to live without 'em.

Thats ok then. As they are not a big club.

Maybe they aren't, but nobody wants to see a club go under.

They have honest, decent fans just as we do as well as a community that depends on them. Not to mention hundreds of staff and local businesses that need them for employment.

True, but i'd like to see them in the conference.

I for one wouldn't miss them. The Ricoh is a shite hole, they have no fans and there is less rivalry there than we have between Forest and Derby.

They've already lost more league games than we did in the whole of 2008-09! lol

But Robins should do enough to stop them sliding into League 2.

Edit - just picked up this priceless quote from that thread on Sky Blues Talk

When the stadium is full it's like anywhere else, great to be there

If you enjoy rock gigs that is. Seven years after they moved in, Cov have still to fill the Ricoh, and don't look like doing so any time soon.
