    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    It was his to do as he saw fit. Most business’s hire people they know, over the period of time of his tenure he increased prices less than most clubs, put up nice advertising boards over the stadium and renamed the stadium. most importantly sold it to the wealthiest people possible. There is...

    So what happens if....

    Of course you wouldn’t feel bad about it. You find it quite easy to stick the boot in at every opportunity.

    Tommy Hutchison Book

    Blackpool was the home of Matthews, Mortensen, Ball, Armfield, Pickering and Green and you know that Hutchison was in good company. That period after the war until 1970 Blackpool had some great players and times when we were a lower league club. My dad said that when Matthews was playing it was...

    Championship 22-23

    I love to link things that happened in the past back to us but linking the fact that West Brom are a yo yo team to our purchase of Lee Hughes certainly isn’t one of them. Nice try though.

    He is proving you wrong, game by game.

    Match Thread ⚽️ Stoke City vs Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Oct

    Every player and I mean every Coventry City player had a very poor game by your definition. None was exempt from poor control, poor distribution. I agree he could have been sent off but he wasn’t by a referee who was useless by any measure. I thought Dabo was par for the course. Obviously others...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Stoke City vs Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Oct

    Couldn’t disagree more. Dabo was facing Ben Osborn and I thought he played him very well.

    Beer in the ground?

    Why would there be a reduction in cost? I genuinely dont understand your point. Madri is a premium lager that you would struggle to find anywhere for £5.00 and most pubs charge £5.50 for a pint.

    Hypothetical changes to the CBS

    That seems fair...always some want to against the flow.

    Tommy Hutchison Book

    just finished the book, bravo Irishskyblue. Captured the pride of a scotsman, the career of a great and very well thought of man. I knew it would be a great read because of the subject matter and that is down to your handling of the subject. my favourite anecdote was from the Bristol City...

    Or it could be a double bluff. They might be just not in the market for a stadium or a sale.

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Sheffield United Match Thread - Wednesday 19th Oct

    Hamer doesn’t deserve a place in my opinion. Eccles was magnificent on Saturday and should be picked on merit until he doesn’t warrant picking. We pay Hamer high wages not to be consistently suspended. Quality or not he is a liability.

    Are we better off because Wasps have gone bump?

    Who ends up with the stadium is the answer to the question “what will it mean for us?” if it’s still Wasps then I hope they haven’t dipped into this forum. if it’s the council then I hope the players have changed in the interim years if it’s SISU then we are sentenced to life with no get out of...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Unless we won’t be playing full stop. Nothing is clear cut, the only thing that is certain is that things will be different and whether that is positive is yet to be determined.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    I had no axe to grind with Wasps until the Birmingham move and then wonderEd how much was down to the intransigence of our owners. Wasps are a massive brand in the Rugby world and their fall has been horrific but predictable and yet...it could have all been so different for both parties. They...
