You do understand that at some point you have to pay all of the money back, right?

Sort of like taking out a credit card to pay your mortgage. It's possible, but it wouldn't suggest a great business model to me as a potential investor.

Can someone pop round and move all of the sharp objects away from oucho's desk please. He's going to be very disappointed when he reads what happens next...

With respect CJ, who are you or I to say that? This case might be done, but there are some mighty big questions about the conduct of the Council with regard to the arena and the sale that I'd be more than happy to be thrashed out properly in court. And this has nothing to do with supporting...

Sorry SBW! Unforgiveable mistake. :)

Wasps are only loaded because they're £30m in debt to their bondholders. I see nothing in their recent history to suggest that Wasps owners are any better than SISU, they do not have Coventry City's (or the City of Coventry's) interests at heart. They've bought an historic rugby club and...

I honestly do SBK. They've got their own complete legal department for a start, and the ability and funds to go as far as required. In terms of an LA's resources, this is peanuts. I've never yet heard of a council abandoning a legal action because it's run out of budget. If they think a case...

You've not heard about the six new Pot Noodle bars they're opening in town then? ;)

Generally speaking 'the law is an ass' tends to be quoted by those who haven't got the judgement that they've already decided is correct. There's a reason and a purpose for appeal courts, and a well-established process in civil and criminal law that can always eventually be exhausted This...

Exactly my thoughts. Cheaper too. Facebook poll anyone?

How to improve the city centre. Hmm...

Possibly, especially if you don't agree with it personally. But allowing a neutral court to decide is the worst form of justice except for all of the other forms that have been tried from time to time (to paraphrase Churchill). Or we could just let the internet make the call on it, of course.

Bomb squad by December, training by himself at the memorial park - you heard it here first. :)

I'm not sure he's been injured that much over the last few seasons, has he? Just not first-choice at Preston as I understand it, but he had 84 appearances for Sheff Weds in his time there. I'd like an experienced keeper to both support and challenge RCC. He has definitely improved this year...

Completely agree with this, OSB. I'm not too down but what I want to see this time next year, as a minimum, is us going into the last game of the season with at least a chance of getting into the playoffs. Incremental progress, as TM would say.

Sorry chief, but every time I move you seem to end up sitting next to me. "Oi. Cole. You're crap. LAUNCH IIIITTTT!!" :)

£175k salary plus pension contributions to take it to around £200k, as I understand it mate. Not in your league Nick, obviously, but not bad for three days work a week. :)

Didn't get a leaflet other than Lib Dems, and didn't get asked to deliver leaflets (for Labour) this year either. I sense a degree of complacency, perhaps. As it goes circumstances overtook me last night, but I'm not quite sure who I'd have voted for. My heart is red, so to speak, which is...

Nice touch from JC. I wish him well, but I certainly wouldn't be rushing back here from Florida in the middle of winter. :)

Quite fancy this for bringing the eldest up one game next season... to be honest if I had the cash I'd be seriously tempted to do this fairly regularly.
