    EFL Decision on Coventry’s future expected today

    You could easily not have the checkatrade and league cups next season, that would buy some time. You could even skip the FA Cup and pick that up where it left off, would mean less matches to play to complete this season and less matches next season.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Personally I'm not going to be racing to the pub or any other crowded place the minute they announce the removal of restrictions. Will be keeping contact to a minimum for a few more weeks and see how things are going.

    The Gigs Thread

    Exciting project. Be interesting to know what state the building is in and how much, if anything, of the old cinema is left. Can't really remember what changes they made to convert it into JJB sports. Fact of the day this venue was built as a replacement for the old ABC Empire that was...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Was just about to post asking why we aren't seeing similar in other area's with a high Muslim population if that was the reason. Suppose you really need to see the figures per 100K of population to be able to compare.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Saw something on twitter the other day with accompanying pic saying the mosques were closed for social distancing but muslims were still meeting up to pray together. Of course its hard to know if that's true at all and if it is how widespread of an issue it is. There's as much chance of it...

    CET - Click bait titles

    Not going to give them a click but sure it mentions how the comments are inconsistent with previous articles: Jay Bothroyd remembers Coventry City spell fondly

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    "When they turn this on its going to kill everyone" what an idiot. What do people that actually believe that to be the case think the endgame is here. Why are the phone companies all happily killing off their customers?

    CCFC puts players and staff on Furlough

    WTF, I was wondering how you'd made that look like a real Telegraph link. Can't believe that is actually a genuine article.

    Pay cuts at Premier League clubs

    I think the point they are making is they aren't the only ones who are on large salaries but they seem to be the only ones being called out to take a cut.

    CCFC puts players and staff on Furlough

    It's a minimum of three weeks so presumably they've been told nothing is happening anytime soon and the players won't need to be back in training this month.

    CCFC puts players and staff on Furlough

    Player have probably been sent home with instructions for training alone as they would be at the end of the season to keep their fitness up. Most of the office staff will have nothing to do, not like we can even push season tickets for next year as we didn't have them on sale anyway and don't...

    CCFC puts players and staff on Furlough

    Assume they would hope to offset lost ticket revenue by opening up ifollow to domestic viewers and / or extra tv payments to allow more games to be shown.

    CCFC puts players and staff on Furlough

    This is pretty much a perfect example of what the scheme was designed for. People who have no work to do. What does he think footballers are doing at the moment?

    CCFC puts players and staff on Furlough

    Fair enough. If there's no work to do then no need for them to be working. Also worth highlighting the club are paying the 20% the government isn't paying so all staff will get their full salary. Not sure furloughing is going to work out like the government expected. There's an article on the...
