Reasonably successful clubs seem to run into problems when they encounter Iain Dowie.
I have just been on air on BBC Coventry and Warwickshire trying to calm down agitated Sky Blue fans.
Not because of tonight's clash with Championship leaders Watford, but because the Football League have banned the indebted club from transferring and loaning players.
In practical terms, Coventry have little option but to go into administration and incur a ten point penalty. They have sky rocketing debts and few assets as they rent the Ricoh.
It shouldn't be a problem for Dowie if he can't spend his way out of trouble as having a lot of money available to him at The Valley saw most of it wasted, creating ongoing financial problems for the club which, it has been suggested, are more serious than is generally realised. Perhaps he will find his level in League 1.
However, one has to feel a bit sorry for someone who is being pursued by the Orange One for a court settlement arising from his move north to Charlton.
