    Nuneaton Borough FC

    Could be a decent signing for them although doesn't look like he's played much the last few years, assume through injury. Apparently just moved to the area and wanted to play so maybe not costing them as much as you might expect.

    Government admits NHS app will not be ready for launch of contact tracing scheme Not to worry, we won't have an app like everywhere else in the world. We'll get loads of people in to do it manually. Coronavirus: contact-tracing applicants in England wrongly told hiring paused

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I've seen plenty of criticism of Swedens stance so its definitely out there. We're always going to see more about the UK as that is what is more likely to be discussed given it directly impacts us. The other thing is compare what is being criticised. Sweden are being questioned on their...

    Sir Patrick Vallance said a "good outcome" would be keeping deaths below 20,000. The FT modelling, which is a cautious estimate so if anything likely to be lower than the true number, put excess deaths currently at 63,600 so I think we're way past what anyone could say was acceptable or a good...

    This weeks numbers are: Monday 67,409 Tuesday unavailable due technical issue with data collection system Wednesday 60,744 Thursday 67,681 Friday 80,297 So a bit of an increase today but nowhere near the 100K promised every day by the first of this month let alone the 200K a day promised by...

    Deaths seems to be flattening which is a concern. Fingers crossed that next week, at worst, sees no increase as we should start seeing if easing lockdown has had any impact.

    Boddy has done a great job. Odd that when he came here everything we heard about him was negative.

    Think they can do I copy but its the actual key part I'm missing so there's nothing to copy.

    Missing car key advice required

    Bit of a problem, my car key has disappeared! I've got the fob which opens the door and turns off the immobiliser but the actual key part which flips out from the fob isn't there anymore. No idea where its gone, obviously had it when I last arrived home so I assume its in the house somewhere...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Reckon when it gets to the secret ballot Oxford and Pompey might vote in favour of PPG. Suspect the Peterborough chap thinks the same as he's now calling for all votes to be made public.

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    To be fair we don't know why the club are voting stop now. As much as it gives us promotion it also saves the club a lot of money. We all know finances were tight so if we suddenly needed £500K ti finish the season with virtually no revenue coming in it may have needed Sepalla to open the cheque...

    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    Was never much chance of a clearance sale anyway. Easy enough to just redistribute the stock to other stores. Need to get something done with that site pretty quickly. Won’t give a good impression if the first thing visitors to the city centre see is a huge empty building.

    See they've got Robbie Savage in today to ask the hard hitting questions. That will show people who say this government tries to avoid serious scrutiny.

    Fans going mental on social media is one things but you'd expect owners and board members to try and maintain a slight appearance of professionalism.

    Its a couple of weeks out of date but the most recent figure I had was that they have sold $3billion worth of tickets for events that are now eligible for refunds.

    Great news about the NHS surcharge Pretty embarrassing for Johnson though. In PMQs yesterday he was insisting it couldn't be removed and that removing it would cost £900m, a figure that was quickly proved to be incorrect by over £800m.

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    She claims they want to play the games so they have the chance to stay up. When the regulations proposed today allow for that: Wouldn't her time be better spent proposing a way fixtures can be completed that is both practical and financially viable? Put that forward and I'm sure they'll get a...
