    It is unrealistic but... Own the Ricoh (at least half of it at least) or Build a new stadium at Warwick Uni?

    Not sure Warwick Uni is a bad location. If all the transport infrastructure plans for the uni come off it would be a better venue on that front than the Ricoh. Of course its impossible to say if one would be better than the other when we have absolutely no idea what any stadium at the uni would...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    This thing of the figures being wrong keeps coming up yet nobody seems able to explain what's causing the excess deaths in the more accurate ONS figures if not covid.

    Things that annoy you

    Think the problem is stats that are only really needed by clubs data analytics people and those really into deep diving that kind of thing are being thrown around by the likes of Sky and MotD without really understanding what they mean. Look at something as simple as possession. That was...

    Weight and working out

    Anyone used Muscle Food to order meat? Quality of meat in the supermarkets is terrible, are they any better, or any other suggestions. Would love to head up to the farm shop or a decent butchers but even ignoring trying not go places for covid reasons can't really afford to pay three times the...

    Football is back!!!! Premier League

    Watched some absolute shit today. How they can claim the Premier League is the best league in the world with a straight face is beyond me.

    Ricoh Return

    That's definitely the shop and ticket office, the measurements in the plans match. Seems odd to get rid of those, not really another obvious location for them. Agree it looks shit. I don't get the business plan to try and make everything at the Ricoh like a rugby clubhouse when its only used...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Its so hard to get reliable information even if you're using supposedly 'legit' news sources. Think some of the mainstream press have to take at look at some of their reporting and scaremongering during this crisis. When a 'variant of concern' is reported what does that actually mean. For...

    Birmingham's ground is falling down

    You mean stadiums that were built on the cheap and have had very little maintenance since? In a few years time we might all be relieved we didn’t end up owning the Ricoh!

    Birmingham's ground is falling down

    The capacity for the games is 40K but that's temporary, after that it goes back down to 18K with uncovered stands at both ends which would be miles from the pitch as they're keeping it primarily as an athletics stadium. Athletics UK were keen to avoid a similar situation to the London Stadium...

    Birmingham's ground is falling down

    Is it just bad luck or lack of maintenance? Bet they're annoyed they can't get a new stadium out of the Commonwealth Games.

    Ricoh Return

    I didn't mind it when we first moved there. Could have done with more to identify it as 'our' stadium but that was a minor issue. But from day one there seemed to be zero maintenance and it was very quickly starting to look tatty and a lot older than its actual age. Then of course you had the...

    That's just what we needed. What was their #27 doing? He seemed to decide to just leave it.

    No chance of knowing if he was offside or not from those replays.

    Ricoh Return

    Of all the things we could argue about on here I don't think we need to waste our time on what would happen if Sepalla offered £100m for the Ricoh!

    Old Arcade and PC Games

    Got Lemmings on my iPad, still fun. Amazes more that more old games aren't ported over to iOS and Android. Can't be a difficult or expensive job and it seems easy money. Loads of people would pay a couple of quid for games they remember from years ago,
