    The return of the 50/50 draw

    The club are re-launching the 50/50 draw tonight. Sounds like its all the same as before. 50% of the money goes to the winner, the other 50% to the academy. Been modernised so its not the old style raffle tickets. Hopefully with a big crowd tonight should be a decent amount for the winner.

    New stadium in 2026?

    Seems Birmingham are planning to bid for the 2026 Commonwealth Games. This will almost certainly involve the building of a new stadium and one of the sites being suggested, obviously at a very early stage, is the NEC. Now the NEC is just about 9 miles from the council house, not much over the...

    Worth more liquidated?

    Interesting, and worrying, conversation today with a chap at work involved in land purchases. Regarding Ryton it was suggested that if there isn't buyer willing to purchase at a price SISU deem acceptable they could skip admin and go straight for liquidation and get a decent amount of money...

    Protest groups who's who

    I can't be the only one that is getting these mixed up. We've got the Trust, formerly led by Steve who stepped down to run Fighting the Jimmy Hill Way and are now led by Moz. I thought the point of splitting off JHW was so the trust were arms length from protests but they still appear to be...

    Warwickshire CCC

    As has been rumoured for a while Ashley Giles has left Lancashire to take charge at Warwick. Great appointment and hopefully things will turn around. Seems to be a bit of a mess at the moment with a poor season and players leaving.

    You're the chairman

    Hope this can stay on topic as I'm interested to see what answers there are. If you replaced Fisher tomorrow as Chairman what would you do. Lets sum up the position: Expiring deal to play at the Ricoh, ACL refusing to talk to club about a new deal. Any new deal likely to cost more. Expiring...

    England v Scotland @ Ricoh

    Saw a couple of posts on my twitter timeline about a game tonight at the Ricoh. Turns out it England v Scotland in a rugby international. Surprisingly judging from the pictures on twitter its far from full and lot of people asking why the game is being played in Coventry and not a rugby city...

    All purpose cricket thread

    Thought we had one but I can't find it. If I didn't have a season ticket I'd be very tempted to stay at home today and watch the rest of the cup final, Warwick looking very good for a win here.

    Squad compared to 12 months ago

    Of the players who started a league game last year, and were here in the first half of the season, I reckon we've lost: Vincelot 45 Fleck 40 Martin 29 JOB 20 Phillips 17 Maddison 14 MAF 14 Johnson 12 in their place we have Jones, Turnbull, Bigi, Rose, Reid, Gadzhev, Sordell, K Thomas, Sayoud...

    No stadiums in London?

    Remember that old chestnut. Well according to the lovers of odd shaped balls at my companies HQ London Irish could be about to move back to London from Reading. They are apparently looking to move into Brentford's new ground. Now correct me if I'm wrong but weren't we told this was one of the...

    Ricoh Arena says “I Am Team GB”

    Didn't want to post this on the SBiTC thread as I don't want to take that off track but they have just posted about this event and it looked pretty interesting so I clicked on the link for more into (although someone needs to tell them the link doesn't work and you have to copy and paste it!)...

    How do you buy your tickets

    So after last night I'm interested to know how everyone buys their tickets. For simplicity assume its a league game and there's no issues with things no having been delivered. Also if you don't buy in advance I'd be interested to know why and what would persuade you to buy in advance.

    Ricoh pitch

    As we don't have enough to worry about has anyone been to the Ricoh recently? Spoke to someone today who had been up there and said the pitch is in a shocking state. Hoping its not the case so was wondering if anyone could give a second opinion.
