    So after all the crying, we have actually (very marginally) improved our position this weekend...

    Running

    Went over to Warwick Racecourse to run the Parkrun course this morning. 18:50.... a bit of a disappointment, but it was very windy out around that flat open course, which probably cost 20-30secs. Still some more hard work required, but i feel it just has to "come together on the day" and i've...

    Consistency is the key. I'm hoping to go over to a nice flat course tomorrow morning for a 5km pb attempt (weather permitting).

    New ground: 10 unsuccessful modern stadium moves

    I remember reading that Juventus old ground (Della Alpi) was never popular. However I loved it, and although huge and never filled, it always seemed a good atmosphere. Their new ground seems well received, although again its well out of the centre of town.

    New ground: 10 unsuccessful modern stadium moves

    Written by an outsider it's a fairly good summing up of the situation. Not saying i agree with all of it at all... but a non-Cov journalist (and it seems most Cov-based journalists) haven't got the appetite to look into the finer details of why we are where we are...

    That is a decent 10km of its own right! About 38:30...

    Scotland

    When you look at the group stages of the last few Euros and World Cups, it's arguable that the Euros were a tougher competition to progress in. But like you say, 3 teams qualifying, and the increase of participants (purely for financial gain), has made it into yet another shambles of a...

    Remember 2nd April 2018 - embarrassing day

    I remember the furore over the Morecambe home game where we were apparently a "disgrace" for just seeing the game through to a draw. Was quickly forgotten about after the Notts County matches.

    Was talking to a Blues work colleague yesterday and he reckons they are awful, and living off the back of a decent first few games. Personally, i don't see a win here for us.

    Running

    My intention this morning had been to go down to Warwick Racecourse and run the parkrun course, a full-on attempt at a 5km pb. But seeing the rain and standing water i didn't think it was a day for an optimum time. So instead did 12 x 2mins hard/2mins easy. 10 miles with warm up and warm down.

    Running

    Just did 6 miles. Out from Bedworth to Lythalls Lane, past the Cherry Tree. Lap round the Ricoh. The stadium part of the Ricoh is looking extremely tired and dilapadated for a stadium only, what, 15 years old. Rather sad that felt absolutely nothing as i ran round past the turnstiles. Can't...

    Wasps meetings with the council

    Is there still a CWR phone in..? There was pressure during last season by some members of this forum, re the indemnity clause, which definitely had an impact. Is this kind of info something "we" can get behind and at least get mentioned on the phone-in...

    Football was best between 95 and 2005

    I remember when monday night football started on Sky. We'd collect my grandad and then go to watch it in Ansley Social Club, Foleshill WMC or Bedworth Ex-Service.... game of pool, live football, can of shandy... life was perfect...!! Still remember seeing that Yeboah goal against Liverpool as...

    Nations league was manufactured by FIFA/UEFA to try and justify meaningless friendlies and the financial gravy-train... Then we still get more meaningless friendlies anyway

    VAR

    Scrap it. Game has got massively worse over past couple of years. Teams having appeals would be abused, used at end of games for tactical purposes to break up play. It can't be left up to the clubs to behave in that way... i read on the 5 Subs thread about subs only being allowed if players...

    Robins 11 points target

    I'd say 13 minimum required from those lot.

    Our position

    Quite possibly... but if life has taught us anything, it's that points attained are not usually divided equally throughout the season... some teams will pick up significantly more than 75% of their total in the remaining 75% of the season, and some will, i assume, pick up significantly less.

    Our position

    Not based on anything scientific... i'd imagine Wycombe will struggle to reach the 40's... I still think Sheff Weds will struggle. That would leave one place, and i just don't see every team in the division reaching, say 47-50pts.
