    Food in Coventry?

    I don't know if there is a Greek restaurant in Coventry but we used to go to one & have a meat mezze platter and they would keep bringing out more meat. They did not like it when one of the girls we were with asked if we could have some more salad & vegetables.

    Mike Ashley Takeover …Ready and Waiting

    He bought out Shepherd & Hall and then found out that he had all the creditors to pay too otherwise they would have gone bust. Some of this was for the buying of player's whilst Shepherd & Hall chased the PL/CL dream.

    Mike Ashley Takeover …Ready and Waiting

    When Ashley bought Newcastle he stopped them going into admin and paid off all their debts. Yes they were relegated twice with him as owner but each time he backed the manager and they were promoted straight back to the PL. Newcastle's fans mainly gripe is that he didn't back the manager enough...

    England or City

    At least the decision for those in charge of the sky blues trust is a lot easier now they don't have to choose between England and the insects!!

    England or City

    And to counter that we have just about everyone who isn't English wanting anyone but England to win, which is fair enough, and they will constantly go on about the BBC or England fans talking about 1966 when it is them who invariably bring it up. I want England to do well because I live in Scotland.

    Things that annoy you

    Our local NHS dentist has decided to go private which means the closest one with spaces is over 25 miles away. We can go private at a cost of £276 per year each which covers 2 check ups & 2 hygiene visits but any treatment is additional. Walnkers!!!!

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Bryan Richardson left in 2002. I thought McGinnity was chairman at the time & Geoffrey Robinson was also involved in some capacity. Someone with a better memory than me will know better.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    ......and it's also absolute nonsense. In the SD shops I've been to in Scotland I never saw a NUFC shirt when he owned them, plenty of the top 6 PL shirts though that may now change.

    Tommy Hutchison Book

    Is Tommy still in touch with Colin Stein, maybe through CCFCFPA? I was talking to a Hibs fan at work about how we bought them both at the same time & he was telling me that Stein also played for Hibs and was alive & kicking and now living in Linlithgow & he knows where he lives.

    Things that annoy you

    Traffic lights that seem to be on timers rather than by sensors for approaching vehicles. I go past a Tescos to work way before it is open & regularly have to stop at a red light when there's no traffic to come out. And whilst I am on about driving how quick do some people think their reactions...
