    Saracens points deduction

    I think they set it up so relegated clubs retain their share of ownership in the Premiership and therefore the CVC money while the promoted team gets screwed as they aren’t in the CVC club. Presume the same would apply if they left the league system completely. Of course if they went to Pro14...

    **ALL USERS READ THIS, ACTION REQUIRED ASAP** - Sky Blues Talk forum statement

    Completely agree, that’s the point I’ve been trying to make to Neil. Stop concentrating on potential issues years down the line and worry about the immediate problem. Get that resolved and go from there.

    They promised no further action against Wasps. Think that’s fair enough. If they continue action against the council the only way it impacts Wasps is if the council are found to be in the wrong.

    He’s saying there can’t be an election to get someone else on the board and has admitted it was only existing board members who got to vote on the most recent additions. Couldn’t be any more of a closed shop!

    Saracens points deduction

    Sky have got hold of it and have to say I find it pretty shocking. In the grand scheme of things at least in the world of sports its nothing, certainly nowhere near bad enough to justify the punishment they've been given. Interestingly it seems its Saracens themselves pushing for the report to...

    New Labour Leader

    That seems to be getting pushed quite a bit by the media. I would have thought best person for the job would be the criteria but there's already people criticising that it might not be a women.

    New Labour Leader

    Looks like he's using the Boris Johnson trick and swerving Andrew Neil. He won't be on until 4th March when most votes will have already been cast. Nandy has been getting better with every media appearance. Don't know who is on her team and coaching her but the improvement in just a couple of...

    Wasps Again

    said before there's no way there's only one club doing it.

    The Gigs Thread

    Booked my tickets for Crash Test Dummies in Manchester. Very excited for this one, 19 years since they last played here. Considering doing the London show as well.

    Jordan Ponticelli

    Hope this works out for him. Desperately needs game time and to start banging the goals in.

    Said a long time ago the trust should hammer that angle. The EC investigation will run its course no matter what else happens so what benefit is there for CCFC, Wasps or indeed the local economy for Wasps to continue to refuse us a deal at the Ricoh?

    I think it's a fair point to raise if needed. So far in trying to sort out their training ground Wasps have tried getting our academy kicked out of Higgs, broken promises to Old Leamingtonians which led to the Royal Leamington Spa Archery Club (Olympic archers among those who used the...

    **ALL USERS READ THIS, ACTION REQUIRED ASAP** - Sky Blues Talk forum statement

    Got to admit this has had a much bigger impact than I hoped it would. If nothing else its got the indemnity in the media and a CWR presenter to say Wasps kicked us out. Need to keep the spotlight on the indemnity as that is the key thing at the moment. Neil from the trust is now trying to...

    Byng

    There's lots of differing opinions on here but the vast majority of posters do actually show an interest in the club and the ones who don't are pretty quickly called out on it. IMO that's very different to someone who spends hours every day searching out people on social media who dare to have...

    **ALL USERS READ THIS, ACTION REQUIRED ASAP** - Sky Blues Talk forum statement

    Been asked for months for info by their own members and nothing. Even claiming they were too busy and would need to be full time to respond. Got this out pretty quickly though didn’t they. Doesn’t really address the issues, if anything it illustrates why people are unhappy with their actions.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    I know next to nothing about rugby but figured it was worth a post as its come from people knowledge on the game with contacts at one of the Premiership clubs not mentioned as potential departures. Think the international thing only works if the majority support it. Looking at the three clubs...

    Since when wasn't it CWR anyway?

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Speaking to the guys at my head office today who are rugby nuts they are convinced they're going to jump ship to another league without restrictions in place and that Bath, who apparently have objected to the cap before, and one other (Leicester was mentioned) could join them. Said there would...

    BBC Coventry and Warwickshire will it's name and presenters role.

    Get the impression from posts he made on twitter after his very sudden disappearance that he'd been too critical of certain organisations in the city. He literally disappeared off air overnight.

    Blues Game

    Its a he, Paul Cook. Ask any of the stewards at the Ricoh about him and you won't hear many positive things! Some people tried pointing out issues, politely I should add, to him on twitter but his attitude was very much he knows better than everyone else despite the issues being obvious to any...
