    Meeting with Joy Seppala & Dave Boddy - Thursday 27th February 2020

    So what, so they've cried wolf. The point is, nobody believes it, they probably realise that. Working on the slim chance that they intend to follow through this time, identifying a site and submitting a detailed planning application at this time possibly wouldn't be helpful in the Ricoh...

    Meeting with Joy Seppala & Dave Boddy - Thursday 27th February 2020

    Look at it the other way round though. Put aside the history on this issue and also the scepticism and assume for one minute that they are serious this time. Why then, right now, would they be making announcements, submitting planning applications, when it is quite clear that we would first...

    What’s needed in the next 11 games?

    I find the supreme confidence of some a little unnerving (not so much on here, but some fans have reached peak gloat on social media and it's adding to my anxiety). There is a long way to go. Bad runs and dips in form can happen. Our worst 11 game run this season yielded only 12 points out of...

    Sunderland fans crying "again"

    Am ex player of theirs was interviewed last week, trying to remember who it was, and basically said the fans there are the worst he's encountered for getting on players backs. Thought their support was poor today. Numbers were great obviously, but man for man just about the worst we'd had at...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Sunderland Match Thread - Sunday 1st Mar

    Great result, matched by the performance. Getting the early goal always meant we'd come under the cosh the longer the game went on. Did they create a clear cut chance though? A couple of players looked a bit leggy towards the end, but it's not surprising. Overall, thoroughly deserved.

    And yet another thread about us

    People are so easily triggered and get angry about nothing. It's just a link to a forum post about us. Don't follow the link if you're not interested you melts. Don't they have an 'official I hate coventry thread' on there? It's hilarious, absolute gold, and if people want to read it, let them...

    Nope, never. The Roost is open about..... now. Hoping to get there for 9 and get settled in :happy:

    League one Friday/Saturday

    Not sure I buy into the take a draw mentality. If it happens, fine, we're still well placed, but we have to take advantage of the teams around us slipping up today. If you offered me the draw now I wouldn't take it. Real chance to put some daylight between us and third.

    Greta Thunberg / Climate Change Summit

    Much of this is right. There do need to be political solutions. However, the issue is increasingly being politicised along left and right lines (but not traditional left/right), that is not healthy and there is so much dishonesty in the debate. Greta and that whole movement, through no fault...

    Greta Thunberg / Climate Change Summit

    No, he's not. It isn't the message so much as how it is delivered. You criticise Greta and people guffaw at how you are 'triggered by a child'. It's pathetic. If she stands up at Davos and declares we have 8 years to save the world, why can you not question that and disagree? It is a highly...

    New hotel at Ricoh

    Well yes, I agree, but surely that need hasn't suddenly emerged in the few weeks between rejecting one application (from an independent third party) and cheerleading for this one which happens to be backed by Wasps.

    Flat Earth

    Yeah, they do act as a filter in that they take away a lot of the harshness, but I think it's long been accepted that smokers inhale longer and deeper on filtered cigarettes so there are no real health benefits. Not sure this qualifies and a conspiracy, at least not in recent decades.

    Crowd Sunday

    Block T16 has now opened up, so if you didn't fancy sitting in one of the front rows you can now buy near the back without having to POTD.

    Greta Thunberg / Climate Change Summit

    The problem for me is that on the fringes climate activists are a death cult. The world is going to end in...., the point of no return is....; and when the date passes it is pushed back. The Greta thing is curious. She's the perfect stooge for climate extremists. You can't question her because...

    Coach to Ipswich

    No idea what happened, just kept telling the people at the bar that the drinks were on the tab. Seemed to work.

    Coach to Ipswich

    I must have been the only one on that boat trip who didn't pay for a single drink. Came off plastered too. Not sure how I managed it.
