    Match Thread Middlesbrough ("H") - Tues 2nd March - 19:00 KO - St. Andrews

    What causes that weird grid pattern on the pitch, is it the undersoil heating?

    Commentary on ifollow

    Mine has started working on the TV web browser which it never used to. Oddly my Dad has the same brand TV with the same OS, even the same version, as mine and nothing but a blank screen so a bit hit and miss but worth a try.

    It is unrealistic but... Own the Ricoh (at least half of it at least) or Build a new stadium at Warwick Uni?

    The only business case for a new ground is if Wasps refuse to let us play at the Ricoh. Of course we hear different things from different sides so who knows where on the scale the truth lies. As I keep saying even if you do believe there will be a new stadium, and that can't be many people, we...

    It is unrealistic but... Own the Ricoh (at least half of it at least) or Build a new stadium at Warwick Uni?

    Don't think its a matter of Wasps letting CCFC control the stadium, it just needs everyone to act like grown ups. What we're really talking about is not wanting to go a stadium plastered in Wasps branding where every bar has been made to look like a rugby clubhouse. Other clubs coexist without...

    Defensive reinforcements

    Shows what a tough job Robins has got on his hands. Most people have already said we need at least one first choice striker in which is going to eat up a huge chunk of the budget and now we're talking of, at minimum, needing 2 new first choice CBs and a LWB and probably a goalkeeper upgrade...

    Commentary on ifollow

    The Blackburn commentary was just for ifollow wasn't it. Presume either the game wasn't on local radio or they don't have rights to use it. When you hear some of the other commentators makes you realise Clive and Oggy are pretty decent!

    House Buying Advice

    I had a full survey done on mine by a company recommended by multiple people. Cost over £800 and was a complete waste of money. Only found one or two minor things, routine maintenance type things, but I ended up needing to do well over £10K of repairs before I could move in! Day I got the keys...

    Strikers next season

    Walker has only made 13 starts and scored 6 goals so maybe the priority should be someone who complements him. Getting someone like that in and keeping Godden as backup is probably the best we can hope for on our budget. Would get rid of Baka, is his contract up? Can't imagine Max is on big...

    It is unrealistic but... Own the Ricoh (at least half of it at least) or Build a new stadium at Warwick Uni?

    In an ideal world you'd have a city centre stadium but where would you build it? Especially when you have an uncooperative council. So if you're having a stadium that's not in the city centre then transport links come in to play. The Uni manages to get about 30K full time staff and students in...

    It is unrealistic but... Own the Ricoh (at least half of it at least) or Build a new stadium at Warwick Uni?

    Not sure Warwick Uni is a bad location. If all the transport infrastructure plans for the uni come off it would be a better venue on that front than the Ricoh. Of course its impossible to say if one would be better than the other when we have absolutely no idea what any stadium at the uni would...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    This thing of the figures being wrong keeps coming up yet nobody seems able to explain what's causing the excess deaths in the more accurate ONS figures if not covid.

    Things that annoy you

    Think the problem is stats that are only really needed by clubs data analytics people and those really into deep diving that kind of thing are being thrown around by the likes of Sky and MotD without really understanding what they mean. Look at something as simple as possession. That was...

    Weight and working out

    Anyone used Muscle Food to order meat? Quality of meat in the supermarkets is terrible, are they any better, or any other suggestions. Would love to head up to the farm shop or a decent butchers but even ignoring trying not go places for covid reasons can't really afford to pay three times the...

    Football is back!!!! Premier League

    Watched some absolute shit today. How they can claim the Premier League is the best league in the world with a straight face is beyond me.

    Ricoh Return

    That's definitely the shop and ticket office, the measurements in the plans match. Seems odd to get rid of those, not really another obvious location for them. Agree it looks shit. I don't get the business plan to try and make everything at the Ricoh like a rugby clubhouse when its only used...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Its so hard to get reliable information even if you're using supposedly 'legit' news sources. Think some of the mainstream press have to take at look at some of their reporting and scaremongering during this crisis. When a 'variant of concern' is reported what does that actually mean. For...

    Birmingham's ground is falling down

    You mean stadiums that were built on the cheap and have had very little maintenance since? In a few years time we might all be relieved we didn’t end up owning the Ricoh!
