    Do CCFC hold the biggest recorded away attendance in England?

    Don't know the answer for this, would be great if we were. However I do know that you have as a football club in the league to offer to provide a minimum percentage of your seating as away seating. Stops clubs gaining an advantage by only allowing a tiny number of away fans. Don't think there is...

    Supporters' group tells Coventry City FC owners to clarify stadium plans

    I thought that was just Elliot not Hoffman?

    Maddison Feels Stronger than Ever!

    Personally I hope that they don't rush him back before he's 100 percent. But will be nice to see him on the team sheet again.

    Ethics Commitee Meeting Tomorrow

    Memory a bit fuzzy but something like that sounds right. Think it was (Lana, Laura, Linda whoever) Joy's right hand woman was who said something like that in the Higgs case. It was something about Sisu saying the Higgs share was worthless and when asked why they had in that case offered £2m...

    Ethics Commitee Meeting Tomorrow

    Yes I think so although had we bought it before the decline in relations they might not have said no. Maybe we'll never know or it might come up/out in JR2.

    Yeah I know that (I use it as a double check in my spreadsheet) but old habits die hard.

    Effects of Sky TV

    The effect of TV moving games and start times will obviously have an effect. Some people may only be able to do a Saturday afternoon for away games especially if it requires long distance travel. I thought that the TV money was supposed to help with the potentially lower gates at televised games.

    Ethics Commitee Meeting Tomorrow

    Where Les fell down for me * was when he obtained a rare interview with Joy and didn't seem to ask the questions people wanted answers to. It's possible that he was given ground rules before the interview about what was and what was not going to be answered and he therefore decided not to ask...

    Ethics Commitee Meeting Tomorrow

    The council managed to criticise Sisu for taking our club away from the city and fans to Northampton, which was fine because that shouldn't have happened. No problem whatsoever with that it's the other side of the coin where it's screwed up. Having said moving teams is wrong and pointing the...

    Crossover fans

    Although I will say I have no interest in rugby you're pretty much spot on. I don't agree with the idea of taking teams away from their fans and home. We didn't like it when it happened to us and I'm certainly not going to support financially or otherwise teams where this has happened.

    I'll give that a go but I wrote an Excel spreadsheet with a VAT calculator for the various different VAT levels a few years ago.

    The way I was taught was to: Divide by 120 (assuming it's a 20% rated VAT item(s)) then times by 100 to get the pre VAT price. Minus that figure from the original price to get the VAT. The weird thing is that I'm normally quite quick doing this and it just seemed to be a mental block.

    Best goal you remember.....

    Whilst that was a memorable any of our goals at Wembley including the one that came off Mabbut. That's probably down in part to the fact that I never thought we'd get there. Time to get out Sky Blue Magic out for a listen.

    I didn't know that about Rob, and it's a shame because with no disrespect to Clive and Geoff I liked his (sometimes over) enthusiastic commentary.

    Midge Ure and Ultravox were robbed by that travesty of a song.

    Don't worry you should have seen my maths earlier today at work. Trying to calculate a price without VAT and came up with a different answer each time. I eventually resorted to Excel to make sure I had the right answer.
