    Albany Meeting ?

    1) they haven't built it for the Academy, the Academy will hire it for use the same as anyone else; 2) without it there would have been an objection raised to the planning permission for the pool by Sport England; 3) it lets Wasps off the hook as they had promised to build, and pay for, the...

    Albany Meeting ?

    Heard on the radio the other day that the bus gates, where they were told to replace the signs despite insisting they weren't misleading, now only have a fraction of the amount of penalties being issued.

    You can stick your fancy modern games, this is where its at Don't know why they don't port some of these old games over for iPhones. Can't be that difficult technically and plenty of people would pay a couple of quid.

    Myth busting discussion

    I think it is if you know what net is and think it through but I suspect not everyone will grasp that fact. Either because they don't know about net and gross or they skim read. They'll see 50% and that will be what they take away.

    Albany Meeting ?

    The trust can take a stance on something without telling people how to spend their money. Why not just make it very clear the trust does not think Wasps should be in Coventry.

    Albany Meeting ?

    IMO needs to be an official trust protest with the associated PR and push for people to attend. Otherwise, as we've seen with other protests, you'll end up with a handful of people and be completely ineffective. A targeted trust campaign aimed at Wasps is a very different prospect for them to...

    Albany Meeting ?

    And if the trust believe that Coventry City shouldn't be moved out of Coventry, even temporarily, why do they not have a problem with Wasps being moved 90 miles permanently?

    Myth busting discussion

    I'm not wasting my nice long post I wrote while Nick was busy locking the original thread and pinning it :D A good start, hopefully to be expanded on. Just a shame that with the trust for every step forward they take about ten are taken backwards. If they had just come out with this and a...

    Albany Meeting ?

    Surely you're not suggesting no pressure should be applied to Wasps on the basis of a scenario you're come up with yourself that is not backed with any tangible evidence. ie: that Wasps are only refusing to talk with us at the insistence of the council.

    Albany Meeting ?

    If Wasps aren't involved what possible excuse do they have for refusing talks?

    Albany Meeting ?

    It is entirely possible. We live in an age where technology allows you to get that kind of information out virtually instantly. What you mean is the trust, who are supposed to be the representatives of the supporters, are withholding information from the supporters for the benefit of certain...

    Nuneaton Boro on the brink of folding

    Finding 10 local businessmen who will stump up 10 grand each to play football club owner shouldn't be impossible, its the having to cover a hole in the finances every year thats the problem. If they're spending it on wages surely the better option is to live within their means, at least until...

    Nuneaton Boro on the brink of folding

    Fingers crossed it’s good news for them. Don’t know much about non league, are they just badly run or is all of non league a basket case like they are? They seem to be in serious trouble more often than us and some of the figures thrown around are crazy given the crowds and how little they...

    Albany Meeting ?

    Why? The questions that need to be asked don’t relate to legal action. For example the council need to be called out over their lies saying CCFC would be secure in any Ricoh sale. Wasps need to be called out on why they are claiming they can’t hold talks yet the situation is no difference to...

    Albany Meeting ?

    Its a nice idea but think Ryton will struggle to meet the criteria. And if it does how much protection does it really give? Isn't it just that you get six months once the owner puts it up for sale to raise money and make a bid? Knowing our luck we'll end up with fans owning the training ground...

    Albany Meeting ?

    Hope to be proved wrong but given they are citing Johnson’s piece as a factual reference I have my doubts about this being unbiased.

    Grab a beer or a cup of tea, it’s CCFC!!

    Find that hard to believe. After all we are constantly told Johnson is nothing to do with the trust. Not to mention the number of posters who have used the ‘its just his opinion’ defence in this thread.

    Emiliano Sala (Cardiff Player) on board missing plane

    I can believe people might be a bit shocked if they witness a horrific injury like Dave Buust or if someone dropped dead during a match. There’s a lot of Cov players I like, past and present, and I would expect the club to respond accordingly but these days everything seems over the top. Have...

    He also talked about it in terms of the Otium offer to buy Higgs share when they made an offer following Wasps offer Reads to me as if he expects the Otium offer to be based on the formula. Look at PWKH’s post history on here. He wouldn’t confirm the exact figure due to confidentiality but...

    If I meet an untimely end can I request nobody ‘honours’ me with shitty polyester football shirts.
