Having done a couple of ultras which start early morning, i can comiserate. When you've been running a few hours already, start feeling the first strains of severe tiredness, look at your watch and its still not even 7am, and realise you've still got 12hrs+ to go....!!!

Precisely. I know we have a lot of expert groundsmen, project mangers and wedding-planners on here (not to mention master football tacticians, politicians and scientists), but the attempts to throw blame around are just speculation at best.

Whenever a statement comes out (regardless of whether it is from Wasps/CCFC/SISU/EFL) saying "parties are in discussion/working on something", with no substance, it is usually condemned as being a "waste of time" and "why don't they just concentrate on sorting things out and tell us when they've...

How anyone can call this saga anyone but Wasps fault, as owners and landlords, is beyond me.... Despite the involvement of other relevant parties, SISU will ultimately have to carry the can, as owners, for the state of the club in the past 15/20/however many years... ...and Wasps have to take...

I'm pretty sure you can. As long as its not at times booked out to Godiva (tuesday and thursday evening), or any other group bookings they might have. There is a timetable/booking thing somewhere on the University Of Warwick website where you can do it online. However you should be able to...

Managed to recover in time for the English Champs at the weekend.... then promptly had a nightmare as i was badly affected by the heat, having to sit down three times.... i did manage to finish, but well down on where i should be. Last night was Godiva club night and we did 9 x 1 minute reps...

Ran in the North Wales Fell champs on sunday (interestingly the race registration was in England, the start/finish in Wales, and i believe the route crossed the border a couple of times) Was a hot day so i started conservatively and was surprised to find myself leading most of the way up the...

This was a point i made on the Wasps Downward Spiral thread a couple of months ago... There's rightly a lot of hostility towards Wasps on here, and i expect the vast majority of other City fans, whilst perhaps not quite as bothered about them, would prefer them gone given the choice. But my...

Yeah i think it was 23 or 24k just for the QPR game. Really set the ball rolling on us never getting higher attendances, as we'd have sold out 32k and we destroyed QPR. It was a massive missed opportunity.

What i was referring to is that we regularly couldn't sell out Highfield Road against even the very top teams back then.... We did a lot, but i can recall many occasions where we couldn't sell out against Liverpool, Leeds, i'm sure at least once against Man Utd. Regardless of whether it was...

Yes, easily. If you are "comfortably" running a 10km then you've just got to run more often and for longer.... some longer specific training runs as well. If you're already running regularly then i'd say you can probably turn it round within 3 months.

I'm afraid i'm of the opinion that our home support is poor in comparison to "similar" clubs (and i am aware that it seems to be slowly improving. How far back do we go with the excuses... the past 20 years, granted have been pretty shocking... but our support was often poor through the...

Yeah trying to justify a takeover by Red Bull is bullshit. Would be me done with it i'm afraid.

I was up at the Rugby Sevens on saturday evening courtesy of a last-minute freebie from a friend. First off, the queuing was a complete shambles. Basically the entire crowd had to go through that temporary scanning area outside the casino, so the queue was right back round to the bridge by the...

If i were to rank all league clubs in terms of "size/stature/prestige" whatever you want to call it.... I'd have us probably about where we were last year... battling playoffs in the 2nd tier... although could make an argument for anywhere between lower reaches of top division, and middle of...

Sian Rainsley of Coventry Godiva Harriers came 12th in the Women's triathlon this afternoon. Kare, also of Cov Godiva, is competing in one of the wheelchair sprints over the weekend... she has a number of paralympic medals to her name already.

I would personally keep the ring-road. It is unique. "Strangling the city centre" is not something i necessarily agree with.... it defines it well, and given that city centres appear to be "dying" generally, i think there is plenty of current city centre space which could/should be revamped as...

Title challenge: Norwich Middlesborough Playoff battle: Watford Swansea Stoke WBA Burnley Sheff Utd Best of the rest: Millwall Cov Burnley QPR Luton Blackburn Mid table obscurity PNE Huddersfield Sunderland Cardiff Hull Relegation dogfight Wigan Reading Blues Rotherham Blackpool

I also said on their forum that i'd take a draw. ... play them 6-10 games in when they've been "softened up" a little and we are (hopefully) into our stride, and we are favourites... but opening game of season, they are going to be playing with no fear with a massive hostile crowd, there's no...

I ran in the English Fell Champs yesterday in the Northern Lake District. Was comfortably in the points positions (top 40 v40's) for most of the race, but fell apart spectacularly in the final hour. And crashed completely on the final descent and down the final mile of road back to the finish...
