Taking a bit of artistic licence with those figures aren't we? Wasps bought for £2.77m + taking on £14.4m loan (which will accrue interest) = £17.17m + CCFC £1.2m pa in rent Dec 2007 - Mar 2012 (4.25 years). £100k pa Sep 2014 - present (4 years) = £5.5m These figures are just reported rent...

Sorry - it did drag on a bit!

You'd have thought they'd pre-bag up squad names and numbers ready to be fitted (though that'd still leave the chance for spelling errors (and buzzards wrath!). Maybe they do but they'd not had put them together for Chaplin at the time? I guess they also usually pre-print a few ready but the...

Very common practice - it been in the news this week about how to stop it but it's been going round and round for decades and little gets done and those that do it soon find loopholes. Seen it done numerous times with various businesses, especially in things like clubs and security firms...

I think it was a misplaced scare tactic to get them to pay up, forgetting SISU are used to these kind of tricks themselves. I'm sure it works pretty effectively for things like rates/council tax etc. I've been in places whereby an outstanding bill for months has been ignored, you send out the...

The fault for that is neither with the council or SISU - it's with Bryan Richardson for agreeing the stupidly overinflated rent on HR before we'd built (or even started working on the site of) a new stadium. Imagine just for a second you're a Coventry council tax payer but not a Coventry City...

___________Burge Grimmer Willis Hyam Mason Thomas Ogogo Doyle Allassani ______JCH Chaplin Like Nick I wasn't sure about Allassani, especially away from home, but Oxford haven't been great this season (bar us!) so I'd prefer to see how the trickery on both flanks would work...

This is a reason why I think the argument of 'were you at the game?' doesn't always hold true. Where you're sitting in the stadium can make a massive difference on how you see a game. Years ago (HR days) I recorded a game we were playing on Sky while I was low down in the WT. I thought during...

Editors are headlining Godiva Festival later tonight.

But surely when the burger goes over easily onto the floor it'll be nothing to do with him and it's the grill's fault, who's had it in for him from the start of his shift.

Syncopated? Is that a mix of Sycophantic and Synchronised? They both fall over together and suck up to the ref afterwards?

They're quite big fellas so they're more likely to be shot (which I think would be agreeable to a few on here) (EDITED FOR GRAMMAR POLICE)

Firstly, 'the club' aren't the claimant in the case. This leads to my second point - that the owners will not give ownership of the stadium to the club - it will have it's own holding company which CCFC will have to pay to rent the ground. Like ACL just with someone else getting the rent...

With 5 strikers I'd hope we were very much thinking inside the box - no midfield to pick up second balls outside it

If we do get another striker in(!) I could possibly see Nuneaton asking the question of if they can loan him for a bit. Don't know if either the club or JP would be OK with that but 'men's' football would probably be better than U23 and as we've seen ourselves players do sometimes end up going...

Is this more cryofftherapy?

As for 4-4-2 I don't think we should be fixated on it, but with the players we have at the moment it would seem the best bet to get the most out of them bar maybe Andreu who could be one of the two up front or an alternative to Bayliss. The thing about being fixated with a system is when people...

Oh for a team like that now, although Whelan for me was always a back-up striker and Froggatt would be LW. Shaw should never have been more than a back-up either. Not quick, not tall or muscular, but reasonably decent positional sense to be a nuisance jockeying backwards trying to hold up play...
