After that game at Forest, if refs at other games were having a poor game in the eyes of the Sky Blue fans, they would shout "Wignall's your father". |

Mark Robins meeting Joy Seppala for an afternoon cup of tea and no obvious questions asked and no answers given. Why? Because we are 15 points clear at the top of the league, have the best strikers, defenders and goalkeeper and own our own ground with millions to spend in the Championship next season. |

Sad to read that Colin Collindridge, the oldest surviving Coventry City footballer, has passed away at the age of 98. I remember seeing him on the left wing when I first attended Highfield Road as a youngster.
RIP. |

Club statement:
Coventry City can confirm that the planned English Football League EGM and vote regarding the Club's place in the EFL has now been cancelled.
This is because the Club has met the EFL's criteria regarding ensuring a venue for matches next season and the ability to fulfil fixtures, by now having a groundshare venue and agreement in place.
This groundshare is in place to make sure the Club has somewhere to play in the scenario of a deal to play at the Ricoh Arena not being agreed.
We can confirm that talks with the aim to achieve a deal to play at the Ricoh Arena are continuing between Coventry City Football Club, its owners SISU and Wasps Holdings Limited.
Our focus and desire is to agree a deal at the Ricoh Arena - this is everyone's preferred option, and the right option for Coventry City. While the backup of a groundshare exists to ensure the future of the Football Club continues, another groundshare is not something anyone wants to happen.
Details of the agreed groundshare and of our ongoing discussions with Wasps Holdings Limited remain confidential, due to mutually signed confidentiality agreements.
We understand the frustration that fans are feeling, and have expressed to us, at not knowing where their Club will be playing next season, not being able to plan for next season and supporting Mark Robins and the team, and the time that this is taking.
We will provide a further update to supporters as soon as we are able to. |

With Brexit looming what will happen to Sisu's latest court challenge to the council and Wasps? Will the EU courts still have any legal say in the matter? Question |

Under the Withdrawal Agreement, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) will remain competent for judicial procedures concerning the United Kingdom registered at the CJEU before the end of the transition period.
Sisu have already lodged their appeal to the European Court so they will continue to hear the case, even if it extends beyond the transition period. The case will be judged on the law as it was at the time the events took place.
Peter.

Hi Slim, thanks for remembering him. I have fond memories of Ron Wylie from his City days. He always took time to meet the travelling fans for a chat. He was a lovely man, one of the game's good guys.
Ron will be sadly missed. A true gentleman and well respected in the game.

Nice thoughts, MisterD-Di.
Remember him as a player all those years ago, football through and through!
RIP Ron Wylie.

Have just read about the sad passing of Lol Harvey. A very sad day. A long time City player and a very decent human being in the early days at the City, he lived in a club house, near Torcross Avenue / Dartmouth Road.
Remember like it was yesterday, him catching our number 7 bus to get himself home from the club. A very decent player and loyal club servant.
In later years, myself and some friends used to attend events that included past players. He was always happy to chat about himself and his life.
RIP, a very decent human being. |
