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...

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...

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...

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.

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

The fee will be between 400K-500K, unless you think the board at D&R went to the same school of economics as you and decided to accept a much inferior offer to those they have previously received. Charlton had a 300K bid turned down last autumn. Of course it is the Maddison money that's being...

Sometimes I don't know if you're a parody account or if you actually believe this stuff.

No we don't. Based on what? There is absolutely no basis to that statement. We seem to now be in a position where no money is being put into the club, and no money is being taken out. The club is trying to be self-sufficient, and so while all of the money might not be used for transfers in...

What is a good long term deal? A good long term deal (financially) is still not particularly attractive if it means wall to wall Wasps branding, no club shop, no ticket outlet and an overwhelming sense that we're just squatting 23 times a year. The place feels less like home with every visit...

Think we're over-analyzing things a little here. I don't believe the SBT has an agenda at all. I'm not involved with the SBT, never have been, but just happen to sit next to Steve in B16 and a few others from the trust, and what is clear is that they are decent and passionate and care deeply...

TBF this is just standard practice everywhere to talk things up. I can't recall a pre-season where ST sales weren't "up on the same point last season". On that basis we should be selling the place out. Yeah, we'll sell about the same - but it might be up a touch because of the finance option...

But voted him play of the year the season before. Championship probably not the right level at this stage of his career. I always rated Baker (so did many others as we too voted him player of the year one season) but he is prone to inconsistency. Probably wouldn't want him back, not least...

No pay on the gate, ticket office closing at The Butts and no tickets to be sold at the club shop at all, even on a non-matchday. Mmmm. Get a big walk-up of say 3000, and the matchday ticket office would have to sell 25 tickets a minute in the 2 hours before kick-off. Good luck with that.

I'm looking forward to an epic week in June. Off to the Euros for final group game, fly back to watch ODI at Edgbaston, then next day off to O2 to watch Joshua. Missus is furious :p
