    Accrington

    Strange claim from the Luton manager. Compared to Accrington then Luton ....... - they are second - they have won 4 less games - they have spent more money - they have a bigger income - they have been equalled (drawn) in 12 of their matches whereas Accrington only 6 times - Yes they have scored...

    Harry Kane awarded goal

    Its a pity that clip doesn't show the final camera angle fully. When I saw it before, the ball didn't seem to touch his head. If he did touch it then it seems to have been his upper arm .............. so isn't that handball and it should have been disallowed? I wouldn't be best pleased with...

    SISU - an improvement?

    I agree at some point we have to draw a line under what happened in the past. My first question is what are they actually doing now that has changed for the better? They oversee the finances. They don't actually invest and are a "bank" of last resort if there is a cashflow shortage, some of...

    SISU - an improvement?

    In a word no tempted to leave as that....... but I am curious to know what it is thought that they are doing better? They don't talk or communicate, they let Otium do its own thing within the budget it has based on them not having to fund it, they do as a final resort top the cashflow up but...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    It would seem they must have a problem signing the accounts off It isn't just Wasps Finance PLC It is Wasps Holdings Ltd Arena Coventry Ltd Arena Coventry (2006) Ltd IEC Experience Limited as well.............. plot thickens .............. and yes you might expect the local press to try to...

    The clock is ticking again Robins...

    I do not think there will be any pressure on him to go from the one place that matters.................. the owners. Change will cost, not only in paying Robins and his staff off but also in bringing new players and manager in. I doubt given the cash flow implication that's going to make change...

    Match Thread Coventry City at Notts County Match Thread - Saturday 7th Apr

    Can't help thinking that robins is being judged primarily on fans expectations not the actual ability of the squad compared to other teams. After 41 games it is pretty clear that the current ability of the squad is not consistent or matching expectation... It is not significantly better in...

    Match Thread Coventry City at Notts County Match Thread - Saturday 7th Apr

    He makes mistakes he doesn't inspire confidence certainly among many of the fans. However the league 2 managers seem to rate him. As they have all seen him that isn't based solely on the back four in front of him Personally I would have favoured an older more experienced keeper especially with...

    Match Thread Coventry City at Notts County Match Thread - Saturday 7th Apr

    This is not a totally unexpected result, last week's was and that lost us more than three points. The team, manager and fans have lost some confidence at the wrong time and increased the pressure. Generally ccfc do not react well to pressure and haven't since the top division relegation. We are...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    It can take a few days to go through the system fp ................... but am a little surprised by it you would think they would make a point of eliminating the potential rumours etc .......... also that the accounts are not of the LSE yet either

    Butch Wilkins

    So sad to hear of this Met him with my lad at a football show at the NEC. Whilst other stars brushed some of the kids away he had time for everyone (he was working at the show) My lad was made up when he tried to get his autograph and Ray chatted away with him and despite on his way to one of...

    Agents Fees

    I would think squad assembly and its costs including agents is pretty much down to Robins and his management team........ SISU would only get involved in signing off contracts and setting him a budget to work within.

    Season Ticket Deadline Won't Be Extended

    I cant help thinking that the shorter and earlier early bird period has a lot to do with needing cash now to cover this seasons shortage in cashflow............ was going to work well up until we have the embarrassment of 6 : 2 against Yeovil. If as Boddy told the Trust the break even was 9000...
