    Could those attending Wasps games...

    Unbelievable. Blatant PR? The Wasps PR machine has been in full throttle all day and you happily gloss over that. Like offering use of the facility at 'excellent' rates, knowing full well that rules surrounding academy status make that a completely empty gesture. Some people will swallow it...

    Ticket office staff losing jobs

    I still don't know what they'll do if there is a high demand game, because while most of us don't understand why people don't buy online, they'll always be those that prefer to get them in person - or more specifically pay cash, a lot of young fans don't have debit cards. No ticket office in...

    Academy Protest Idea's

    For two hours in the evening? If we can maintain academy status under those terms I would be amazed.

    Official Season Ticket Sales 16/17

    Yeah hopefully they'll be a late rush. Really important we back the team this season, have the feeling this could be the most important season for the club in a generation. Not a time for apathy.

    Academy Protest Idea's

    As an example of what we're up against see the comments: http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/ccfc-academy-crisis-alan-higgs-11415227#comments-section The Wasps/CCC unofficial PR team are out in force. I think I may be fighting a losing battle.

    Planning application for Higgs submitted by Wasps

    Wasps' promise to redevelop land around the Ricoh (the council really sold that idea) turns out it was an empty one. They have no intention of doing anything of the sort. Still, that empty promise got them a multi-million quid leisure complex on a 250 year lease for peanuts, so what the fuck...

    See the CT have caught up. Just waiting for the usual suspects to post their gleeful comments beneath the article.

    No, you only have to give your name and email address when you submit the objection.

    Academy Protest Idea's

    What I would like to see is some of the retards who post comments on the CT challenged - there is a small clique who reply to every CCFC story with anti-CCFC (not just ant-SISU) sentiments. To the casual reader it may appear that they represent the consensus when often the issue they're...

    Planning application for Higgs submitted by Wasps

    Agreed. It will go through, but if lots of people object on the planning portal (link above) it will perhaps be an opportunity to make it known to CCC the depth of feeling and the planning officer/councillors on the planning committee will have to respond with a formal response and...

    Planning application for Higgs submitted by Wasps

    First thing you can do is submit an objection: http://planning.coventry.gov.uk/portal/servlets/PlanningComments?REFNO=FUL/2016/1458 Won't make a difference I guess, but I've done it anyway. Made me feel slightly better, but they may have to blank out the obscenities when they publish it. All...

    Official Season Ticket Sales 16/17

    Bit concerned by the poor sales. The early bird offer ends one month earlier than it did last season, and a few days ahead of that deadline we had sold nearly 4000 - whereas at the moment we're only just over 3000. Doesn't bode well.

    Official Season Ticket Sales 16/17

    What is surprising is just how many of the reserved seats have come available today - clearly the vast majority of last season's ST holders have not bothered renewing before the deadline, perhaps they are taking a chance and waiting til payday assuming their seat won't have gone by then. As it...

    Official Season Ticket Sales 16/17

    Seems odd that they have set the renewal cut off for current ST holders for a bank holiday weekend when the ticket office is shut and also a couple days before pay day. Would have been better putting that back a week and having the EB cut off a week after that, but not sure it will make a...

    As It Stands

    Agree with much of the OP, but disagree that Wasps don't see CFRC as a potential threat. Of course they do. If they were to get their act together and rise up through the leagues (they're hardly lacking in pedigree) that would pose serious issues for Wasps. Another top flight Rugby side in the...

    Revenues blah blah blah !

    I understand the general thrust of the OP. An obvious one is property. It's a pretty safe bet. You buy an apartment block, channel rent revenues to the club and the asset itself would/should rise in value at the same time. Relatively low risk investment that could generate cash flow (relatively...

    Ricoh Talks Failing and Butts More Attractive

    Don't know why people are flapping. The future looks decidedly less bleak than it did a week ago when there was seemingly no new stadium option. There is a solution, its called the BPA. Get behind it and stop daydreaming about yellow seats and a future in the shadow of a shameless rugby club...
