    Hasn't another deadline just past with nothing happening. How many deadlines can they miss before there's some action taken?

    Deadline Day Thread

    At the risk of this turning into the Brexit thread is there any reason he wouldn't get a work permit or have the rules changed post-Brexit?

    Mark Robins is responsible for Hyam being sold

    its a lot easier to bring prospects through or promise PL clubs their players will be in the side when you're in L1 / L2. Realistically how many players we currently see in the U23s would we be happy coming into the side? PL sides loaning championship quality players will want a significant...

    Empty seats in 14 & 15

    We've only got ourselves to blame with things like this. There's been repeated warnings that have been ignored so you end up with OTT solutions like this.

    We need players in but I fear our best case scenario is nobody else going out

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Preston North End Match Thread - Wednesday 31st Aug

    Well its an interesting selection. Guess we'll know in a couple of hours if it was a good idea or not. Not convinced about punishing Hamer, a suspension and fine is surely enough. Not like we've got a squad overflowing with replacements. I guess Robins can't keep picking Moore when he's...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    What I can't get my head round is professional rugby and the Premiership are both relatively new. They had every chance of setting things up in a way that would have been sustainable long term but instead have for some reason decided rugby is going to suddenly be as popular as football if they...

    This is always the problem, you only need one person the mix who is asking unimportant questions and they can derail the whole thing. Sure we all remember when the club was deep in the shit and people were asking about badges.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Saw this today and thought it was worth resurrecting the thread for. Some interesting, and slightly worrying, data on health outcomes following recovery from covid. https://www.ft.com/content/26e0731f-15c4-4f5a-b2dc-fd8591a02aec

    We used to do the ticketing in house and if more than two people were on the site at the same time it fell over completely! Does anyone really trust the club to come up with a bespoke ticketing system that can cope with demand, runs smoothly and interfaces with he stadium ticket scanners...

    By default Ticketmaster, and every other ticket seller I've dealt with for that matter, don't realise the money until after an event has taken place. The simple reason is if they event is postponed / cancelled they are the ones who have to pay the money back out and don't want to be chasing a...

    Club update

    Has there actually been a sensible offer for the club or just Hoffman with his pound? Its all well and good people saying sell the club, we all want them gone, but there needs to be someone who will buy it. Personally I'm not convinced if O'Hare had gone, which was clearly the original plan...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    I remember a report saying that one of the Wasps directors had turned up at a property development conference and described Wasps as a property development company which just happened to have a rugby club attached. Of course all Wasps supporters decided to ignore this as they prefer to believe...

    Club update

    People can complain but without someone willing to just throw money away what alternative strategy should they pursue? The only way they're going to make significant returns is promotion to the Prem and they simply aren't going to write the kind of cheques required for that. So we're, at best...

    Club update

    It says "Coventry City are not paying any additional funds on top of our rent agreement fee to fund the pitch improvements" which is what was suspected wasn't it? We'd already paid rent and we've now made further upfront payment which will be offset against future rent. Long term we don't pay...

    We moaned for years there was no communication now we're moaning because there is. No club is going to give you any answers other than the ones they want you to hear and if the questioning gets too aggressive they will just go silent again. Boddy isn't going to come out and say there is no new...
