Frank doesn’t know Archie !!
Can’t remember him breaking a leg. Do remember him going in goal when Alan Hill got carried off at Nuneaton Borough (1-1)
Tommy Doc got rid of ‘ Don’t Dilly Dally’ ‘ give the ball to Galley ‘ before seeing him play.
Probably to help fund the spending for new players.

Do hope Coventry City can sort a new ground out sometime soon, certainly won’t be going to Birmingham to watch them again !

I listened to 'Talksport ' yesterday and Tim Fisher the Coventry chairman is talking about returning to the Ricoh stadium.
He said " We've taken real positives from what the Ricoh owners are saying "
" They've said they want the football club back in the city, although it has to be within the bounds of a reasonable commercial deal "
Reasonable Commercial deal ?
Thought they'd tried to negotiate before ?

Do hope they go back to the Ricoh, much better than visiting St Andrews.
Would be a new ground for me to visit.

Primacy of Tenure is the potential priblem with a ground share.

"13.4.1 the playing of any of the Club’s first team matches will always take precedence over the activities of the other party to the agreement;"

Potentially not just about money.

That sounds a bit more positive and I hope it happens for them
New ground for me too so I hope the fixture is scheduled after December otherwise we might not be allowed to attend.

I still have an open mind about being able to attend matches sooner than we think.
Who stated it would be January until crowds can be admitted again. Just guesswork by the govt or media?

There's lots of mitigation measures could be put in place with some lateral thinking about the biggest issue and each seat being occupied.
Other countries are going to do it so let's learn from them

Yes, I realise it's not just about money. I feel sure they will be back in Coventry next season.
