Has the Rugby idea completely gone away?

...suspect a SISU PR stunt to hustle Wasps into agreeing to a rent deal.

Has to fit with the local Plan and depends on what the Plan has allocated the land to. Council can reject it, but if housing is involved SISU would likely win on appeal and in that case Council cop the legal expenses. If it is designated for leisure, a footie ground could fit that and so make it...

Tricky narrow win, with Willis sitting on JCH all game. Ogogo to be the player he was meant to be for us, by giving the BR midfield real steel (just what we need). I would rest Bayliss and maybe even Stirling but put them on the bench against a "rainy day", and play Meyler and Grimmer in their...

Noted, I had wondered that and seen as some sort of mitigation. I was mainly provoked by the self-congratulatory tone of SBA posters on here. Bunch of part timers in my view

Gave up at page 9 so if this has been said etc etc.... Option B is the "cake and eat it" option by the sounds. The only sensible "condition" is a commitment by SISU to build a stadium otherwise it is just Option A. If the condition is dropping the Court case, they might as well do it now, which...

agreed, particularly Thomas's which i would have expected Burge to get a hand on...

actually I do. I have a hunch it will be SISU that fold through an expedient that puts the case on hold. But what do I know....

...and are unlikely to sustain it - see Rochdale

oh and the self-congratulatory thing that is a feature of the SBA (see above) gets my pip when they are really only part-timers obviously

That implies die hards don't go to home games which is obviously not true. These die hards appear to sing like buggery away, but at the Ricoh just watch the match. Are they not sitting as a group at home games? We could have really done with some help at Burton and Oxford. As it is I have a...

But why are they so quiet at home games? Could not hear a thing at Oxford last week, and I was on the SBA side of the halfway line.

I am repeating myself, but we need SISU to win this. They are the club's owners, like it or not. They have shown in the last 2 years that after 8 years of trying they have finally worked out how you run a football business moderately successfully. It took them long enough. We can only be rid of...

Has SISU got an eye on EFL with this new openness? So, even if Council has not broken the law, they appear to have been underhand in their dealing with the clubs owners So for example should we have to play at a sub-standard ground or one that is too distant from the city, EFL may take a more...

Finally got round for doing some of these Burge 4 The goal was primarily his fault. Every opposition corner is a test of our nervous systems. Most keepers are “good shot stoppers” it is the reason they became goalies in the first place, it’s the day job. Burge does not do much beyond that. I...

IN SISU's time I calculate 9 managers including Robins twice. Give them 2.5 out of 9 (Robins x 2 and Mopwbray x 50%) Every one of those appointments deems to make sense at the time even Andy Thorne. Getting a good manager is harder than it looks

No Bobby Mac was that

Not forgotten though. The top 3 are my 3 favourites of all time. God we need a Yorath right now. Setters kept us up almost single-handedly. Gibbo was "king of Coventry" Sealey was ghastly. He only ever kicked long and took about 10 minutes over it

If this has been said then apologies, but TF might be flying a kite. You put out an easily deniable rumour to test how people react and if there is too much negative reaction. If there is a lot, you just deny the story. I know TF denied it pretty quickly which would indicate he wasn't flying a...

Agreed
