    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Not directly related to the stadium but is local to the proposed location and will impact infrastructure. The Secretary of State will not be calling in the Kings Hill development. Should increase the likelihood of the proposed Stoneleigh Road improvements as well as the Coventry South station...

    Zain westbrooke

    He needs to be playing every week at his age and it looks like he wasn't going to get that here. Good move all round, we've managed to get a fee for a player who was surplus to requirements and he will be more likely to get game time there. No nonsense from Robins again, same as when we went up...

    All purpose cricket thread

    Its laughable really that the CWC didn't win. The coverage was exceptional and the final in particular with Ian Smith's 'barest of margins' commentary.

    Tommy Robinson

    Would a house being fire bombed not be something that made the news? Would also be pretty visible signs of damage. Although with his criminal record you wouldn’t discount him doing an insurance job.

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Live in the area and the local councillors demanded a meeting with the uni as soon as the news broke. Thats what they've reported back. Doubt they're spinning it to make the club look good, one of them is Blundell who was straight on CWR being negative when the initial announcement was made.

    There will have to be a re-think

    Our shit situation could work to our advantage big time. No stadium to upkeep and we're building a championship squad with the knowledge of the ongoing situation and can budget accordingly.

    There will have to be a re-think

    Agree with this. So hard to draw conclusions from a lot of the data being thrown around. Testing numbers are all over the place which makes it near impossible to use positive tests as much of an indicator of anything. There's also a distrust of those in charge so while they should be drawing on...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    The flip side would be they can't tell people over 50 to lockdown without putting something similar to the furlough scheme in place or it will be ignored. Even those that wanted to wouldn't be able to stay at home indefinitely without any money coming in.

    county cricket back 2020

    If they can put a better production on for country cricket, which lets face it has a limited audience, hopefully ifollow will be improved if it looks like a few months of BCD.

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Few snippets from the uni: They have put together a team internally to oversee the project. The exact details of the location are tbc but it will land owned by the uni that is currently agricultural land and falls under Warwick District Council. The stadium will be serviced by the A46 relief...

    Fans back in grounds in September

    I'm struggling to see how it will be possible. The scientists are talking about us having reached the limit of what we can open up to the point that they're talking about closing pubs to allow schools to open. Letting people into football won't be a priority. The PL can survive on TV money...

    Fans back in grounds in September

    Not to mention they will have spent money getting things set up to allow crowds in line with the regulations they were told would be in place, same with theatres and places like that. Makes no sense. You can go and sit in the pub all day but 1,000 people sat outside at Edgbaston (capacity...

    Peterborough friendly

    So many games going on that we know about but we're supposed to believe Peterboro have to play in secret in case thousands of people turn up :ROFLMAO:

    Things that annoy you

    This in general. Just make the packaging the correct size.

    Shall we have some fun?

    Hope none of our fans give them then money. It won't register with anyone but us so we'd have given them money for a quick laugh.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Might be difficult from a practical point of view, let alone the political shitstorm that would no doubt follow, but if I was in their shoes thats definitely what I'd be pushing for. If you can get it under control in your own country and shut down borders do it. Still infuriates me we didn't...

    Open Letter on Behalf of Coventry City Fans

    Glad they put their name to it and posted it on their site. That's a definite improvement over how they've acted in the past. Not sure there was any need to add to it. If anything that dilutes the statement a little. But its still progress from a point blank refusal to believe anyone but SISU...

    New Kit

    You know how it works. Will have been a meeting with professional designers being overruled by the business owner / director who has zero design background because he's precious about his logo.
