    the housing market

    At least you're happy where you are so not too much of an issue. Don't think there's too many places where they're building enough houses to have an issue with more supply than demand. Its the opposite problem round here. Nobody is building and if anyone tries the locals do everything they can...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Its an odd attitude. Don't really understand the whole 'you can't tell me what to do' thing. That's exactly what the laws of the land are for. Try going into the supermarket with no clothes on and I bet you wouldn't get very far.

    All time average attendances

    Even if its not allowed by the time any new stadium is built it would make sense to have the ground setup for it. Other grounds have seating that also allows safe standing so shouldn't be an issue.

    The big man is in for the West Indies. Been looking forward to seeing how Rahkeem Cornwall does in English conditions. Think he might surprise some people.

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Can't see much chance of getting anything steep past health and safety. The top tier seats at the O2 come with a warning and they are nowhere near as steep as some of the stands being shown here in other countries.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Sainsbury and Asda have said they won't be enforcing the facemask rule so that's two places to avoid. Don't really get the people who are complaining because they don't know how long the rule will stay in place. As far as I'm concerned not really massively bothered if its permanent as long as...

    All purpose cricket thread

    Could struggle to get a result in the last test. Rain forecast all day Saturday, Monday and until 2pm Tuesday. If that's correct there's only going to be 2.5 days play.

    Wonder how long it took them to come up with this.

    Comic Con weekend, obviously all being done virtually this year but should still be some new trailers. Looking forward to Truth Seekers on Amazon later in the year.

    Championship salary cap next season?

    Things need to change. Would have preferred it to happen in different circumstances but maybe this will be the thing that finally kicks them into action.

    the housing market

    This was the problem I had trying to buy. You could sign up to every site going to get immediate notification when a property went on the market, get straight on the phone to the agent for the earliest possible viewing and then before you can even look at the place a buy to let investor comes in...

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Can't build houses because a few people on Green Lane don't want their view spoilt. Got no chance. Not like there's even access to the land at the moment so you could at least argue you were losing use of something. One of the councillors who is objecting knocked on my door canvassing and said...

    Match Thread Coventry v Rangers

    Main thing is it looks like he will be fit for the season which considering a couple of weeks ago he was allegedly about to have an operation is great news.

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Do they give any reasoning or have they just pulled a number out of thin air? 10 current PL teams have stadiums under 35K. In the Championship there's only 2 over 35K. I'm all for planning ahead so its easy to expand but equally I don't want to be sat in a stadium that's well below capacity...

    Forum Statement on New Stadium Announcement

    The club will have far more data on ticket sales than we have. I know we like to think SISU are clueless but does anyone really think they're goi g to build a 15K stadium if the data tells them they can sell 25K tickets every week? People seem to have taken the lowest figure that was mention in...

    Site confirmed for New stadium

    I think this is where the partnership with the Uni could really work in our favour. If someone objects saying you can't get 20K people to the site you can point out that there's over 6,600 staff and 26,500 full time students that get in and out. And if planning is needed for any infrastructure...

    Site confirmed for New stadium

    He's one of my councillors so I'll be sending in an email to let him know I'm not happy with his comments. To be honest I expected it to be uproar around here when it was suggested as the locals like to object to anything but its been overwhelmingly positive so far. Maybe as the local...

    Site confirmed for New stadium

    What route maps are you looking at? The initial plan was supposed to be for the first line to go city centre to Walsgrave Hospital and then extend out the other way to service the Uni. Unless that's changed that should be useful. There's also the proposed Kings Hill rail station would could...
