Seeing all of those logos for a franchise rugby team with no connection to the city, at the home for the football team, makes my skin crawl personally. I don't think the day will ever come when I'll accept it, and I'll never knowingly give any support to Wasps whilst they're here. No one here...

Plant just needs a little time to flower, then he'll bed in just fine. He's more a late bloomer than a hardy perennial. (Sub-editors everywhere are quietly praying that he makes the first team.) :)

Not saying you're wrong FP, but it would be madness not to add more trains or carriages for special events. However, you do wonder. They'll certainly need that crowd control if they're trying to get more than 70 people an hour away from the stadium with the current service!

Looks promising to me - obviously quick and seems to know where the goal is. I'm not convinced he's a number 10 either looking at the brief YouTube clips, definitely seems to prefer running in behind defenders and scoring. I can't see how it will hurt us to have him. Would still like a proven...

This is Wasps, right? That was down to the Council because they sold them the Ricoh - you might remember the deal, it was in the papers and everything. The difference between Wasps and Aston-Martin is that most everyone would accept that AM coming here would be a good thing. There's no issue...

Right. Were the council similarly responsible for Jaguar and Peugeot upping sticks and costing Coventry tens of thousands of jobs then? It's ridiculous to imply either, in truth. The council should be doing everything they reasonably can to keep jobs coming to the city, that's one of the...

Yep - and once they've finished they do a quick change and then clean your patio. :)

We were mate, but in the end we lost 5-2. Mowbray out! :)

I know the feeling mate, but I bet you're still quicker than me. I reckon you should give it a whirl. It's not the playing that really hurts me these days, it's the day(s) after...

It's not a proper sandwich until you put crisps in it. Just eating them on their own doesn't count.

Being around that kind of age, I know a few lads who do it. Some, like me, are still playing five-a-side as well as walking football. You need to be over 50 for most of the games I've heard of, and I'm told the standard is pretty reasonable, and it can be fairly competitive without being daft...

What a mess. The deal to sell the Ricoh to Wasps doesn't look anywhere near as good for the City if it ends up costing the council more than they got for it. Just to be clear here, regardless of how I feel about what's gone on I don't want millions of pounds of Council money ending up in...

It's an interesting thought, but I doubt it could work this way. Maybe some sort of prior, out-of-court settlement might work along those lines prior to the case, but SISU are all about the money and nothing else I suspect. I am utterly pissed-off by the council for how they handled the sale...

Bless 'em, that is a tad embarassing. It's good to see that they could get a picture of that Grealish lad standing up though, he seemed to struggle with that over the summer. ;)

SBT, I know we often differ, but that is genuinely funny.

There's something there in the quote from the original article, about retaining all of the rights and history or something like that. I read that as meaning that they were claiming Coventry City Ladies as their own, despite now being Coventry United Ladies. I could well be wrong, but it struck...

This 'end of' rubbish has to stop. FACT.

Erm... you only joined this forum in Apr 2015, according to your bio. Were you talking about this to someone else, or as someone else, perhaps?

Much as I'd like to be drunk, I've ran out of White Lightning and the missus finished off the meths when I wasn't looking. Either way, I don't remember Fisher ever saying that he'd put his own money into the club. Other than SISU, the only person I can recall who actually is listed with shares...
