    Match Thread Notts County v Coventry Friday 18th May

    Astute management, get us down to a low enough level and we'll start winning things. ;) You know what mate, tonight I don't care; that second goal was a thing of rare beauty and that was a great game to watch!

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Notts County Match Thread - Saturday 12th May

    Much the same here mate, though I think if you're flapping your arms around, perhaps to try to distract your opponent, and as a result the ball hits one of them, then I'd say there's an element of deliberation. I think Robins was alluding to this in his post match interview. Either way, my...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    Anyway, apologies for deserting you here Italia - I've got to go for now. Your overtime bills are crippling Wasps, you know that, right. :) Have a good evening mate, what's left of it anyway.

    Yes - he took £10 million back out of Wasps, and only put money (secretly) back in when the bond offer would have failed its terms. How on earth can you turn that into an appetite for further investment? That's more spin that Shane Warne at his peak mate!

    Wasps current finances & hope

    In my opinion, if it should ever happen that Wasps leave, I think CCFC should be offered the Ricoh on the same terms as Wasps (secretly) bought it, including the 250-year lease. My gut feel is that it probably is undervalue at that price, but the council and Wasps are claiming it's fair. Are...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    The evidence is the 10 million he took out. Putting the 1.1 million in (and attempting to describe it as income rather than a loan) is better described as an act of desparation to stop the whole house of cards around the bond issue falling down. If he had sufficient funds and the willingness...

    That would be fine if I could see that your opinion was based on some kind of facts rather than self-interest. The plan would be that we'd be a football club, kind of like we are now, but probably not paying our rent to Wasps. Ideally that might give us a way back into owning the Ricoh or at...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    The response of someone who has clearly lost the argument but isn't man enough to admit it. The spin that you do here on Wasps behalf is staggering and your concept that CCFC need Wasps is frankly risible. I'm sorry mate, but whatever credibility you might have had when it comes to this (and...

    Why are you still here if you're not interested and you hate it so much? There are plenty of other threads where you could contribute something useful. You've had your say here, and while I'm sorry to hear about your mate we're all grown ups here and capable of making our own choices...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    I'm bothered because I've got some sort of a moral compass. Wasps failing here would be a massive poke in the eye for franchise sport. Also, Wasps moving out is probably our best hope of somehow obtaining the stadium that was built for us. What you're seeing here is a company with rather loose...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    In truth I find it a little odd that there are so few people holding Wasps up to scrutiny. Again, imagine the reaction on the CET and here if our owners got pulled up by the auditors for falsifying statements. It's not 'difficult' to represent a true picture to the auditors and the...

    Bugger, it looks like someone at Wasps found 50p to stick in the meter. :)

    They've obviously run out of money to pay italia, or perhaps they think that he's not giving them good value any more. ;)

    Good analysis, speedie87, like it. I know I'm probably the only person in the world with this opinion, and I know I keep banging on about it, but I'm still a long, long way from convinced about the 'independent' valuation of the Ricoh that Wasps are relying on. If Wasps should fold up...

    Coventry RFC Thread 18/19

    I think this obvious success story this season was Latu Makaafi, bloody awsome imho. Hard to miss too. :) Setu copped for a bad injury right at the start of the season and I don't think has really had a chance since to show what he has got. I think you might be being a little bit hard on...

    Keep at it mate. Sounds like a good few of us are interested; the ones that aren't will hopefully find something more to their liking to comment on.

    This is actually what you said: "How about not coming on here and promoting gambling? Prick.". Where's Johnny Blue's name mentioned there? And what exactly did you mean then, if that wasn't a suggestion to shut down CM's thread? I'd quit now if I was you. It gets a bit embarassing when...

    You're allowed to read, and so am I. And I'm actually getting something out of CM's posts. Who are you to tell him to shut up? If you're going to take and then offer offence at a perceived insult to someone else, then maybe it would pay to read thread more closely to understand the context...

    Definitely up for a bit of this CM. I used to trade the horses on Betfair for a bit of side cash, but it's quite hard work for not much reward. Always interested in anyone who does proper analysis in search of value, though I must confess that I've always seen the dogs as a bit of a dodgy...
