    Maybe he means throwing money around at the lawyers?

    Do you Regret Calling for Gordon Strachan's Head

    Headman had a go at trying to stop him if I remember correctly with just an outstretched arm and the stewards were very slow to respond.

    Do you Regret Calling for Gordon Strachan's Head

    I thought Robinson (having become the chairman) summed it up best on CWR when interviewed and said that we sacked the wrong guy. We got rid of the manager when we should have lost the chairman. I heard a rumour that Richardson allegedly might have been doing deals for players that the rest of...

    Moving forward

    What I'd really like is for Wasps to offer us all the matchday revenue (Pie money, car parking etc.) and for us to build a working realtionship with them, rather than just fish the lawyers number out of the phone book. They shouldn't be here to begin with but now that they are we need to deal...

    Upcoming Changes At The Ricoh

    Actually to be fair to DeVere, the hotel when I've stayed there has been quite good in terms room only as it's possible to nip to Tesco and get something to bung in the microwave to eat. Watching Sky Sports in the bath was a totally new experience for me.

    Upcoming Changes At The Ricoh

    Can't but agree with that (loan not withstanding) the council stitched us up good and propper with their hypocritical stance/sale and Sisu didn't help matters with the new stadium talk. Wasps got a bargain which should have been ours. :(

    Scotland vs England

    Sitting with a mate watching the game and build up to the first Rooney goal was interrupted by someone calling my mates home phone asking if he'd like to get cheaper calls. Angrily he says "no I wouldn't" slams the phone down. Just after the second Rooney goal phone rings again same story with...

    Upcoming Changes At The Ricoh

    Wouldn't put anything out of possibility at the moment. A bit late though given Wasps had apparently been talking to the council since the summer.

    Upcoming Changes At The Ricoh

    Can you blame us for the tirade of abuse on here and on the telegraph comments section. It's not like they're whiter than white in all this, although they share the honours with the hypocritical two faced council for Wasps getting our home.

    Upcoming Changes At The Ricoh

    At a wedding at the weekend and saw a mate who I haven't seen for ages who is a Saints fan (Southampton). He was commiserating me on the car crash that our club has become (and the result), but said don't get too depressed, it happened to us and we came back okay. I replied that I must have...

    Upcoming Changes At The Ricoh

    Was there any actual evidence that whilst in Northampton Sisu/CCFC really did this?

    Pressley been sacked???

    I have to assume that Sisu have put a performance element to his 4 year deal and that if we fail to meet certain targets he can be sacked without having to pay off the full contract. Otherwise we're probably on the hook for a lot of cash and that's not something we're flush with. We were at a...

    CCFC statement

    Their stadium is also world's apart from the Ricoh facilities but I know what you're saying. It makes me mad that we didn't make an effort to buy the Higgs out before the rent boycott.

    Coventry City FC's bid for half of Ricoh Arena firm rejected

    Or because the legals with the JR haven't finished, he's possibly been advised by the lawyers advice not to make comments on here. Not saying that's what has happened just it's a possibility.

    Wasps complete 100% purchase of Ricoh

    That's wrong, Sisu didn't take the Higgs to court, it was the other way round when Sisu decided (correctly as it turns out) that they didn't need to pay the 29k. Counterclaiming for 10 times that amount (which the judge also threw out), causing the case to be moved to a higher court and making...

    CCFC statement

    As part of the training modules that I had to complete was one on money laundering. Person teaching us said that there were cases of people doing suspicious purchases that were having a blind eye turned to. Apparently up until they started getting stricter about this,some people were buying...
