    7 points away from safety and bottom

    Cheer up! We won't be playing a massive club like Fleetwood Town every week.

    Coventry Evening Telegraph

    I can only imagine that they don't pay much - so they don't attract people with the talent to think up investigative or "real" journalism for themselves. They could easily have contacted Red Bull themselves couldn't they? I wouldn't expect them to have insider knowledge such as Malaka, so I...

    Cian Harries back to Liverpool

    Quite smart by Liverpool. They must believe the chances of Man City; Man U etc. taking him are low and hence are biding their time before investing.

    Relocating to Coventry - advice welcome!

    Very small parts. I still have family there - they did up Ivy Farm Lane and built over the woodyard & they are nice but the new estate is just early 70s boxes, most of which are let to students.

    Relocating to Coventry - advice welcome!

    If I were to move back to Cov I'd choose Earlsdon - but it depends what the OP wants. If he wants something pretty vibrant then yes, absolutely. If he wants a village feel then I'd think about some of the other places (Berkswell; Allesley Village; Leamington...). What's Bagington like? We...

    question for nick

    It's OK I figured it out. It's because I don't want to have his babies.

    Nick, I want to kiss Fisher, on the helmet. Why isn't the facebook thing working for me?

    Another Nice..but this time in Berlin

    Thanks for that; yes, I never read or watch the news. I've never watched Question Time or similar and I've never researched an issue to try and form my opinion for myself - probably because I'm stupid and naive. Carry on hating if that's what makes you happy. EDIT: Go ahead, you guys have the...

    Another Nice..but this time in Berlin

    So if I disagree with you I'm ignorant, naive, buy simple answers, I'm stupid and I believe anything I'm told? You deduced all that without even knowing me. I'm surprised I'm not nasty too. I'd ask you to do just one thing: take a look at the values that the left is supposed to hold and then...

    Ben Stevenson - Brentford

    The personal tax year ends in April. Corporations are different. Their end of year is usually on the anniversary of when they form.

    Alan Hutton

    John Terry hasn't been released either; surely he's a better option than both of them?

    Cost of Sales

    Huge time lag in operation here. If it takes 10 years from finding the players until they are sold, we will only see the full effect from 2023.

    Cost of Sales

    Do we think that the stream of talent will dry up now Rioch has gone?

    Cost of Sales

    So if that's correct, in reality there is little profit in these numbers. There's a profit for CCFC, but only because it's subsidised by the very clubs taking our assets.

    Cost of Sales

    As we seem to be settling into a pattern of selling the cream of our youth team as they start to get into the first team, I'm interested in the costs to the club to generate the income. If we assume we train the kids from 8 to 18 (random assumption) and we recoup £1.5m per year from sales, how...

    Cian Harries to Liverpool?

    Nah, we just happen to have two desirable assets this year. My guess is that all the kids that can be sold will be sold each year.
