    Rotherham kept faith with Warne which didn't work out too badly. If you have a good manager who has a plan, why would you want to ditch all of that? We would appear to have a huge budget deficit over every team in this league apart from Wycombe. Anything above second bottom is over achieving...

    Would you have bright back?

    I haven't heard that Walsh had signed the new contract offered him and I haven't heard if he has recovered from injury and is in the Bristol squad, I might have missed both pieces of news. As the next window is only 2 months away, Bristol would surely want some commitment from him soon or would...

    Robins said that Godden had a superb game last night.

    Max news incoming

    The only time at a game I have actually stood in water. The boards on the temporary terracing were warped and concave and filled with a few centimetres of rain water. I have been in Fellows Park, Walsall's old ground, but I still would rate the Newport ground as the worst I have been in. Great...

    The season Man Utd were relegated they had gates below 30k.I would think a lot of their plastic fans would jump ship pretty quickly if they slipped down the league for any length of time.

    How do you know he hasn't?

    Fresh Ricoh talks

    You know that for a fact? I would think his circle of professional acquaintances would be far more 'in the know' than most posters on here.

    I would think Eakin has more reliable sources than Wasps. There would be a lot of BBC connections at the Birmingham end. (Radio WM etc)

    Fresh Ricoh talks

    How long would you wait for Wasps to go bust? A year? Five years? Ten? I would ask again. What is plan B if Wasps don't go bust? You seem to say that our only strategy we need, one that is costing us millions in lost revenue, is to wait for another company to go out of business At a...

    Fresh Ricoh talks

    That's food and beverages from an average gate of 5 or 6k. last season. Gates at the Ricoh, particularly with many teams potentially selling out the away end, would be massively up on that. In a normal season we would be hugely down on revenue playing in Birmingham.

    I'd sooner trust what Eakin says than what someone on here may have heard down the pub.

    Fresh Ricoh talks

    What would be the plan if Wasps don’t collapse because I don’t see that this is something that is certain to happen? What happens If Wasps collapse but then are saved by some financial white knight charging to their rescue? We are marooned in another city. We need to be back in Coventry as soon...

    I just had an email back from Rebecca Shortland at the club. She said she had just checked and I will be okay for tonight.

    Being an old duffer, I took the advice of my son who said we didn't have to do anything else as we were already registered on the CCFC site. He can pay for my Sky pass tonight if he was wrong!

    Watching Friday

    I assumed that because I am registered on the CCFC site and had bought Ifollow match passes from the site this season that that would mean I was okay to log on this evening and watch the game (I bought this season’s membership and ST). Just looking on there now it seems that there was a separate...

    Little bits of history.

    You are probably right. A long time ago! I remember listening to the game on BBC Radio Derby which kept fading in and out. The local radio at the time was BBC radio Birmingham who obviously couldn't be bothered with us that night. The mention of buying the programme to gain admittance to the...

    Kastaneer

    He has never really looked the part. He scored the great goal against Bristol Rovers and looked sensational in his ten minutes as a sub at home to Doncaster. But in the games he has started that I have seen, Watford, Rotherham, Nuneaton he has been anonymous. I think he also played and was...

    West End.

    I wish that we had stayed at Highfield Road, but that is mainly because of all of the fall out with the Ricoh resulting in us not having a ground and having to play at St Andrews, something that would have been unbelievable had you spoken to a City fan in 2005. As mentioned on here, I think...
