    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    Was never much chance of a clearance sale anyway. Easy enough to just redistribute the stock to other stores. Need to get something done with that site pretty quickly. Won’t give a good impression if the first thing visitors to the city centre see is a huge empty building.

    See they've got Robbie Savage in today to ask the hard hitting questions. That will show people who say this government tries to avoid serious scrutiny.

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Fans going mental on social media is one things but you'd expect owners and board members to try and maintain a slight appearance of professionalism.

    Ticketmaster Refunds

    Its a couple of weeks out of date but the most recent figure I had was that they have sold $3billion worth of tickets for events that are now eligible for refunds.

    Great news about the NHS surcharge Pretty embarrassing for Johnson though. In PMQs yesterday he was insisting it couldn't be removed and that removing it would cost £900m, a figure that was quickly proved to be incorrect by over £800m.

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    She claims they want to play the games so they have the chance to stay up. When the regulations proposed today allow for that: Wouldn't her time be better spent proposing a way fixtures can be completed that is both practical and financially viable? Put that forward and I'm sure they'll get a...

    I'm assuming, maybe naively, this is being looked into with as much effort as a vaccine. If we can relatively quickly get to a situation where popping a few pills makes getting the virus comparable to flu or anything else we don't go into a complete panic about then we're good to go.

    Not good reading. Saw this a couple of days ago as well which is also troubling. The UK government was ready for this pandemic. Until it sabotaged its own system | George Monbiot

    Good news. Any info on what the capacity is? Has it ever been confirmed you can't get it twice?

    Just have Boddy turn up to the zoom meeting late and say he had internet problems.

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Think I'm going mad as the BBC report reads to me like two votes as well! Probably the happiest I've ever been to be wrong as getting through one vote will be easier than two!

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    I get that but that is part of the "draft framework that would be adopted into EFL Regulations". The press release also says "the EFL Board is recommending that the League adopts the original framework with the amendments as identified". To me that reads that these proposed amendments need to...

    The press release says clubs need to vote on the proposed regulation changes?

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Just checking I've got this right. There will be a vote to accept these as the new regulations and then assuming that passes a vote on if this season should be ended now? For the vote to change the regulations is it 51% in each division or 51% overall?

    Its not tests done, that was established the last time the number suddenly jumped. That time it turned out they'd mailed home testing kits to thousands of Conservative party members and counted them with no idea if they'd even be returned. And in any case the promise was number of people not...

    Makes me laugh when they claim “sporting integrity”, at least be honest about it.

    Department of Health have now released their figures and its 60,744 people tested. Also includes a note saying "There have been several revisions to today’s data across all four testing pillars" whatever that's supposed to mean.

    Get the point he's making but pushing the PM, or whoever is standing in for him, to commit to specifics is of no use if nothing happens when they fail. We all know they very clearly said they'd be testing 100K people a day, every day, by the start of May. That still isn't happening and is hardly...
