    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    Well according to someone from the council this morning they've already got multiple potential tenants after it.

    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    What would go in there? There's already a cinema and ice rink in the Skydome. Can't imagine the police would be keen on more night clubs as there's already a fair bit of trouble in that area. Could stick a bowling alley in there I suppose, think the only one is up by the Showcase if thats even...

    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    This doesn't make sense. We're told the reason the council struggles to attract higher class, for want of a better term, retailers is lack of demand in the city. How is there a lack of demand if thousands of students are getting on a train to go and shop at those stores? The cafes and...

    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    What about the flats on what was a council run car park opposite the sports centre?

    Stadium

    If you knocked down Ikea and the SkyDome (the whole complex not just the ice rink) along with the car park you'd probably have enough room but even if you believed SISU were building a stadium the cost for the site would make it a non starter.

    Streams for tonight

    Their online player normally has every game the FA provide a feed for so if it’s not listed there chances of it being anywhere are slim.

    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    How busy do they expect it to be? Regularly causes huge traffic jams back onto the ring road so unless they start getting people in by helicopter how are they expecting to increase numbers? Although maybe that’s the problem. The city centre traffic management is so bad these days there’s...

    Stadium

    If you didn't want so many sky blue seats and didn't want multicoloured easiest thing to do is just reverse the colours. Have most of the seats dark blue and the lettering in sky blue.

    Stadium

    Why can't SISU knock something like this up. Only cost $1.5bn and we could share it with the Blaze.

    General Election 2019 thread

    Good to see them sticking together. There was very little scrutiny of Johnson and the things he was coming out with in the election campaign and he seems to want to carry on that way. You can't have a government that refuses to have anyone on shows like R4 Today or speak with anyone who gives...

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

    That should be a case study for the need to read an article as well as the headline! Its one of several contingency plans drawn up by a now departed Chief Exec in the best case scenario although Nissan deny it even exists! One thing stood out to me, the plan involves increasing its share of the...

    You beauty! Great finish. They'll be gutted, wouldn't have been happy going in at half time level let alone losing.

    Great calm finish. Nice little build up for that as well. Loads of room in behind them when we actually manage to get the ball out of our half.

    That was appalling. So many things wrong in the lead up to that.

    Makes a change for the ref to clamp down on the fouls early. Hopefully will make them think twice.

    Robins Meeting Seppala

    This is why, even if you were to believe there will be a new stadium, getting the indemnity removed is vital. The Ricoh is the only short - mid term option for us to come back to Cov. In the highly unlikely, to say the least, event that SISU were actually building a stadium we could easily be...

    Ticket shenanigans

    Sure the club will post the details in their match day guide but looking at other teams who have played there seems to say just head to the away turnstiles and collect from there. The away entrance is separated off from the rest of the ground so assume they'll have a collection point there...

    Robins Meeting Seppala

    Pretty sure he has regular meetings with Sepalla as well so not sure why this one is being hyped up as Robins will walk if Sepalla doesn't meet his demands.

    Robins Meeting Seppala

    Some people seem desperate for Robins to quit so they can have a go at SISU.

    The frothing of the mouth has begun... Again

    And people assume these players would still come to us if we didn't have a reputation for developing players, giving them game time in the first team and then allowing them to move on. How many players do you think we could get away with forcing to stay before agents started telling players to...
