    Are we chickens or eggs?

    From a commercial side it should be players get the fans going. We're paying to be there, they're being paid. Given the last few weeks with the pitch, Hyam being sold, being bottom (even though we've played fewer games), then the issues with the turnstiles you can hardly blame the crowd for...

    Deadline Day Thread

    Not selling any of the big players on the last day was a welcome plus moving forwards. Still not a great window overall, partly due to things beyond our control (pitch, O'Hare injury). Looking against who we've lost: JCS and Hyam out - Panzo and Doyle in. Two coming in not as ready as the...

    Chicken feed. We're still waiting for the £350m a week from Brexit... NOTE TO SELF: Read whole of thread before posting.

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Preston North End Match Thread - Wednesday 31st Aug

    I was directly behind it and it seemed like he left his foot in, go caught and did react like his foot/ankle was hurt. Yes, he grabbed his head after going down but did keep on reaching down to his ankle, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt it was because he was in genuine pain. Going off...

    Wilson - 6. Some decent saves but very lucky to stay one the pitch. Eccles - 5. Not a WB and seems to be lacking confidence, causing him to be too slow making decisions Bidwell - 7. Decent enough and got a few chances going forward. Fadz - 6. OK. Roe - 6. Ok as well. Doyle - 7. Looked good...

    Migrants crossing from Europe

    I assume you are therefore highly supportive of increasing the international aid and development budget and opening our markets up to competition from nations such as this so they have less desire or need to travel here?

    Death List 2022

    Trouble is a lot of Russia don't see it that way. They see him as having sold Russia down to the river and letting the USA 'win'. They're much more inclined to get behind a despot like Putin. They like strong-arm leaders who exert their control and authority. Which means they get to control the...

    That's fine, but in business there has to be investment to improve or you end up failing. If you were still running your business using a Nokia 3210 and Windows 98 on a dial-up modem because you don't want to fork out to upgrade I'd suggest your business isn't going to last long. I accept...

    Spiders

    Anyone else ever had the thing where you wake up in the night, go to take a drink from a glass of water and find a spider's fallen in? I keep the top of the glass covered now.

    Adaramola being sent back to Palace?

    That is probably the thing that would see us persevere with him - we have no-one else. I can't see Reid given a chance at LWB. He played in the centre today and it seems that if he has any future here with us it will be in that position.

    Spiders

    Hotter summers = more chance for them to grow. On the whole don't mind spiders (mainly cos the ones in this country are largely harmless. If I lived somewhere like Oz they can fuck right off) but they are both fascinating and freaky. The false widows are a slight concern. Certainly try and...

    Adaramola being sent back to Palace?

    Ideally yes, but that's not what we bring loans in for. We've got a small squad that could end up getting even smaller over the next couple of days and we can't afford to have places taken up by someone who just isn't at that level, or likely to be for a significant period. We're not a...

    Preston attendance

    There is definitely part of me expecting either a delayed KO or for people to miss the start of the game due to having underestimated the walk-up. Ok, there is part of that on fans being told to arrive early but turning up five minutes before KO and then being shocked that there's a queue, but...

    Club update

    SISU have always been willing to sell up. As long as their price was met. But no-one has been willing to meet it. Which suggests they're over-valuing it. It's amazing that we've just had a statement saying that we need to face the reality of increasing costs etc, yet the owners themselves won't...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It almost unbelievable to think if a weeks time we'll be sitting here thinking Boris was an intellectual heavyweight and a shrewd political player. You keep on thinking it can't get worse... And yet there will still be people who think Truss is a better bet than Starmer. And those people are...
