Thing is, we're fifth in the league. The football is good, the atmosphere is good, there's a positivity about the place. When something like this happens it's good for the little moaners to come out of the woodwork and try and drag the club down. We couldn't afford the "fee" which really...

Amazing really. Three games at the Ricoh. Three good crowds. Three good atmospheres. All exciting games and still unbeaten. If that doesn't make crowds increase then nothing will.

I first heard it at the Nuneaton friendly. They sang it every time one of the Nuneaton stewards (who had dreads) walked past them. It sounded great last night. Better than Twist and Shout, which basically means fuck all.

Yes, agree about Bigi, Gren. Could never really see what the fuss was about there. Nothing against Thomas or anything but he's nothing special and we have Finch, Lawton, etc who seem similar players.

I honestly struggle to remember him having a good game.

No great loss I'm afraid to say. Use the resources on someone else.

Seems Wasps didn't. Or the councillor I quoted. Still the nationals are having a good laugh about it. You better write to them all.

More than 75 people per hour?

Similarly, CCC have had five years to admit when the station was finally ready then it would be, well not finally ready.

Yes, you are defending CCC, Astute by trying to blame lack of rolling stock. LM stated that five years ago. Yet, in my quote above councillors were still trumpeting the fact that "once the station has opened" then fans will be able to use it to attend matches at the Ricoh. Blatantly not true.

Now that I agree with. What I don't agree with is the mentality of some that we have some right to be up there. Have a right to beat say, Walsall, because "hell, we're Coventry". The Premiership days are long gone and they may not return for a long time, if ever. Regardless of whether it is...

I would reply but I struggle to type with my mouth full.

Ah bless.

Yes, it would. However, the quote above from one of the Councillors strangely omitted the fact that match-day fans would not be able to use the facility despite LM telling CCC five years ago. Look at the many articles on the CT site and glance at the smug Councillors telling us how brilliant...

Coun McNicholas, deputy cabinet member (transport) said: “When the new station opens we will have one train an hour connecting Coventry City Centre to the Ricoh and on to Bedworth. “I am sure it will be well used by local people and on match days – rugby and football – it will provide an...

Why not? They were told five years ago that the station would be useless for anyone wanting to go to the Ricoh. So why not wait two more years until it could be?

Oh come on, Astute. Don't start getting uppity because people are "blaming CCC". It's a total fuck-up. Look at all the nationals who have picked it up. It's a laughing stock and the buck must stop with CCC. It's not an issue for CCFC or even Wasps who were happily telling everyone that once...

But they're not train operators. It's nothing to do with the football club.

I suspect the Council didn't tell LM or Wasps.

This is nothing to do with the owners, is it? Unless you mean Wasps, the owners of the Ricoh. ;)
