    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    That was just checking passports. When we leave they will also be checks on food, drink and agricultural products so even bigger delays.

    The Trust Survey

    Any of the names ring a bell with anyone? Don't recognise any of them and a quick google doesn't seem to show much.

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Would be worth putting this station next to HS2 just to 'future proof' it. When, at some point in the future, they change their mind about extra stations they could have one ready and waiting to service the city.

    Coventry City Supporters Forum - Zoom meeting 3/12 5pm

    This. Fisher says the finances work in L1/L2 but not the Championship. We all know our budget is tiny compared to pretty much everyone else in this division so what's the solution? Having our own stadium, even if by some miracle someone built it and donated it to the club at not cost, isn't...

    Things that annoy you

    From the sounds of things you're still working your hours. No issue with that, think flexible working should be the norm unless there's operational reasons for it. What I'm talking about is people who are basically getting 7.5 - 10 hours off, with pay, per week. Over a school year that equates...

    Match Thread Under 23’s

    Hard to tell, in another stunning piece of journalism despite the poor bloke not being able to get a pre-season in due to a breathing issue nobody thought it was worth asking about that. All we get is "he’s not as close as I want him to be at the minute, but he’s a great kid who has had a really...

    The Trust Survey

    Was there an election? Last thing I remember was they weren't having the AGM because of covid.

    CWR Sky Blues Fancast

    Anyone listened to this? Didn't know it exited tbh until the club posted about it. Worth a go or is it phone in standard? https://www.ccfc.co.uk/news/2020/november/press-watch-dave-boddy-speaks-to-bbc-cwrs-new-sky-blues-podcast/

    Things that annoy you

    'on the school run' How has this become part of the working day? Since people started working from home it seems to have become completely acceptable to turn up an hour late in the morning and then take another 45 minutes to an hour off in the afternoon. Given we work an 8 hour day we've got...

    Fans back in stadia by Xmas?

    If you sat near the half way line at the Ricoh you'd be used to no singing or clapping.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    This doesn't read well from the governments perspective. https://article39.org.uk/2020/11/24/court-of-appeal-rules-education-secretary-acted-unlawfully-in-removing-safeguards-for-children-in-care/

    Fans back in stadia by Xmas?

    Where have you seen confirmation of the rules in place at Xmas? Hancock has just told a select committee he doesn't know what they will be yet and there's a cobra meeting scheduled for this afternoon to discuss it.

    Fans back in stadia by Xmas?

    Think we all know that sitting outdoors and maintaining social distancing has been safe for months yet they've insisted it not go ahead. To make the change now seems the worst possible time. We're coming out of a lockdown and need to ensure numbers don't go back up and we also have Christmas...

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    The stations primary purpose is to service the new housing in the area and the university. Aren't the restrictions at the Ricoh to do with a lack of capacity on trains and therefore concerns about station overcrowding, made worse by the fact its an station with no staff? Hopefully any station...

    Things that annoy you

    Reminds me of when they changed the rules here about what they would and wouldn't collect, how frequent collections were etc. Was then a huge increase in fly tipping which the council claimed was totally unrelated!

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Would be sensible to have it in the same place as the train station wouldn't it and have it as an interchange? Train station is further south on Kenilworth Road than I thought. Wonder if the idea is to have a pedestrian route by HS2 and A46 relief road to stop any complaints from Gibbet Hill...

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    My mistake, missed the key looking on my phone so went off the blurb that came with it from the local nimbys. Thought the relief road was proposed to run parallel to HS2 for that section? Bit odd to leave the route for the road off a map inviting people to a meeting about the road! Sure I've...

    Fans back in stadia by Xmas?

    Would assume if there's any doubt it will just be a no. We'll have to wait and see what is being done to stop fans moving around the country in general. How are they going to allocate tickets and ensure they only end up in the hands of people who don't need to travel?

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Looks like the A46 strategic link road won't be finalised until next year as the meeting dates to discuss the options are 17th December and 7th January. Given the Uni have previously said the location of the stadium, and public consultation, will follow confirmation of the exact routing and...
