Quick question about sponsorship. Lets say company ABC sponsors a player. That player then carries the companies logo on their shirt, they carry out PR and advertising for the company, maybe appear in adverts for them. The player does a post game press conference which see's a one line quote...

Anyone that has booked anything without checking they are covered for alternations and / or cancellations only has themselves to blame.

Looks like we could lose a whole day today. On the plus side weekend forecast is decent and with a day lost we should get 2 full days of play.

Maybe try Sky Blues in the Community. https://www.ccfc.co.uk/news/2021/june/news-coventry-city-says-thank-you-to-its-volunteers/

I used the Headspace app for a bit but there's less than 2 weeks worth of sleep casts on there that I use (don't like having a bloke talking me to sleep!) so it get repetitive fast. Tried podcasts but I end up listening to them rather than sleeping. So its back to music. I really need to spend...

Can't get my head around anyone paying to watch a circus like this, let alone enough to give him that sort of payday.

Why does the simple concept of supply and demand not relate to jobs? Makes me annoyed when I see articles on skills shortages like the one today on the BBC site. On the rare occasion that we try to replace someone who has left with someone that knows what they're doing we end up with a vacant...

Its made up really easy to see who is a management suck up. Although disappointingly it seems there's only a couple of us who aren't.

What a complete mess this traffic lights system is. There was the survey the other day showing a decent percentage of people going to amber countries weren't going to self isolate on return and now this. If there's restrictions in place enforce them. Seeing government ministers saying its all...

Based on nothing but guesswork I think you'd need to throw in an offer of £15m if you wanted to have a serious conversation about taking over the club.

David Earl and Joe Wilkinson have a new daily podcast called ChatABix. Only 20 minutes a day.

If you like cricket Tailenders and No Balls. Jon Richardson and the Futurenauts - you can go back and start from the beginning with those; Curious Cases of Rutherford & Fry; Wolf & Owl - if you don't like Romesh Ranganathan and / or Tom Davis then skip that one! WTF with Marc Maron and Id1ot -...

That couldn't have been much worse really. Increased transmission, increased risk of hospitalisation and vaccines not as effective. Going to have to keep a very close eye on things but if increased transmission and hospitalisation are true you have to doubt if we can open up as planned on June 21.

Every idiot in the company feeling the need to say goodbye every day on Teams. As if that wasn’t bad enough we’ve now got everyone replying to each other individually, it’s like the bloody Waltons. Also people announcing they’ve finished for the day when I’ll be working for hours.

Or they could just get out for a duck 🤦‍♂️

What an innings from Conway. 200 on debut. That run out was pretty tight as well. If Englands batsmen don't mess this up we could be in for a tight game here. Still lots of batting in the pitch.

I had mine done when the doctors phoned up and said get here now and you can have one. They had loads left at the end of the day from people who hadn't turned up.

Why is Gove talking about extending furlough past September? Even if we don't open up on 21 June surely by September pretty much everyone should have had one jab, think if we kept to the original timetable and 12 week gap (and we seem to be ahead and shortening the gap) everyone was double...

Its just shorthand isn't it? Nobody things the entire cost of a player is handed over by Robins in used notes at a service station but its all relative. If we sell a player for £1m and buy a player for £2m (wishful thinking!) it may not all be up front but it will be vaguely proportionate. We...

Totally get where you're coming from and there's no doubt there's a group of people who happily piss their money away and then complain but don't think that's the case for everyone. In my mind if you're working full time you should be able to afford a half decent standard of living. For me the...
