    Ricoh Parking

    Only know one person who has used it but he's always said its a complete free for all. Stewards disappear by the end of the game so there's no traffic management on the way out. Also nobody stops pick ups on Judds Lane which blocks the road and there's no traffic management on the roundabout...

    Things that annoy you

    Alright for some! I might have underestimated the time some people are taking on the school run. Started work at 8am today, supposed to be a team meeting at 8:30am but someone was missing as they were 'on the school run' which they got back from at 10:25am!!! We have to account for every minute...

    Doesn't seem to have gone down well with their readers. They're now claiming they didn't go looking for it.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I'm in Coventry South and if this is similar to the last time it came up we were going to be bundled into Kenilworth!

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Think there's an element of some groups shouting louder than others and making them seem larger. I've noticed a couple of events recently where tickets haven't exactly been flying out the door despite all this supposed pent up demand. Download Festival is taking place at the end of June, albeit...

    How big is the bonus if the tax on it is a few thousand?! Most places I've worked bonuses have been the norm until about 10-12 years ago. They were paid 3 or 4 times a year and in the (very) low 4 figures so never really needed to make any arrangements to avoid paying tax.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Why is there no doubt? If we see that vaccines are effective against variants and those being hospitalised are unvaccinated then once we're through the vaccination program, which I think is ahead of schedule, it will just be a case of ongoing monitoring. Don't think people have a grip on how...

    Coincidentally Dom Bess seems to have deactivated his twitter account.

    All purpose cricket thread

    This is the problem for me. If you're saying tweets 10 years ago are an issue you're saying people can't change. If you're saying people can't change then all the anti-racism programs we see if football, cricket etc are a waste of time. Is it not better to use him as an example of a guy whose...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I'd say so. When the two weeks was originally mentioned, which somehow then got transplanted into 'they want to lockdown forever' it was to ensure we had enough data to make the right decision. The issue highlighted was that initially there were low numbers with the delta variant, low numbers...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Presumably that's also good news for transmission. That subject seems to have gone quiet but there was a suggestion that those who had been vaccinated could still catch covid, be asymptomatic and pass it on to others? If we're looking at such low numbers doesn't that imply that those who have...

    New supporters club near town?

    Right next to the SkyDome, there's space for 2 coaches there and I've never seen more than two there (one team bus, one for supporters). Car Park is 2.4m maximum according to the council website.

    New supporters club near town?

    Think you'd struggle to get coaches into that car park, the entrance must be too low. Where do the busses to the Ricoh go from now? The Burgess and Pool Meadow presumably. Assume there's none from the station anymore. Isn't the station only about 10 minutes walk away? That might be the quickest...

    Might need a paracetamol

    There has got to be some massaging of the figures to declare Cov has the least crime in the country. https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/coventry-named-safest-city-retirees-20726433

    Logan / Jake Paul / Mayweather Etc

    Exactly why risk a real fight. He got $20m for a ten minute appearance in WWE.

    Things that annoy you

    The school run but not for the normal reasons. Not because of the traffic chaos it causes with parents thinking its a total free for all or the fact that I live less than 500 metres from a school yet see people loading their kids into the car every morning to drive them the massive, unwalkable...

    Logan / Jake Paul / Mayweather Etc

    Odds on a rematch? How do people fall for this shit? From what I can see on twitter they spent more time hugging than boxing.
