Here's a crazy idea. He could have gone to both meetings.

Did you manage to keep a straight face while typing that?

Yes. And then he blocked anyone on twitter who questioned him on it.

This statement and the failure of Duggins, or anyone senior from the council, to attend the meeting when every other party involved sent the key decision makers is a real slap in the face to all the supporters. However it does seem they have got to cocky, Duggins recent comments that they can...

So you're seriously suggesting one small Aldi store has a greater economic impact on the city that CCFC and that's where he should be concentrating his efforts?

I've always found the best way to maximise interest in a sale and ensure you get the best price is to carry it out in secret and not bother marketing what you are trying to sell.

Even by the ever lower standards expected of the council that's poor. Everyone else involved sent the big hitters and decision makers but the council can't be bothered.

The other parties agreement not to comment didn't last long.

FFS, wasn't expecting much but go away and sort it out yourselves is basically what we've got.

Hope they get searched on the way in. Don't want anyone sneaking a flask in.

Is it a meeting that happens to be taking place at the Houses of Parliament rather than a parliamentary meeting? Can't imagine any side would be keen on having it streamed.

Not sure if its good if Joys there or not. On the one hand given her reputation on negotiations it might not be helpful but alternatively you don't want everyone coming out saying it was all positive for her to then veto whatever has been decided.

What has to happen at the council before there's actually some action over their constant incompetence? Council's excuse for not making millions from student flats

For those who are saying that even in the highly unlikely even SISU actually were intending to build a new stadium there is no suitable location in Coventry does that not impact the defence of the councils actions being made on the basis that a new stadium was being built? Can't have it both ways.

When Wasps put in their application to redevelop Higgs didn't it mention something about how much assistance they'd had from the council prior to submitting the application?

Prior to SISUs statement we had them going in to the meeting with SISU refusing to consider dropping the legals and CCC & Wasps refusing to engage with the club unless the legals were dropped. Now we are going in to the meeting with SISU saying they are prepared to drop the legals. Surely that...

I'm hoping that they come back with something positive and things can move forward. I fear it will just be the usual 'look at SISU' type statement.

If I was the council the first thing I'd be doing tomorrow is identifying a suitable piece of land and then putting a statement out saying we believe this to be a suitable site, would urge SISU to purchase it and we will fully support the building of a new stadium in any way we can. That would...

Think about what you've just posted. 'She’s saying I’ll do what Wasps has asked', so that's surely a good thing. 'but with a condition that talks on a new stadium start' a stadium nobody thinks is getting built so why the problem talking about it. Have those talks, Wasps have their condition...
