    Match Thread Coventry City vs Accrington Stanley Match Thread - Saturday 10th Feb

    So far so good. Nobody in my parking space, no queue at the gate and nobody in my seat! If anyone thinks Wasps don’t make any money off us they should see all the pints and burgers being sunk and tenners handed over for the car park.

    Club website says Doyle is out injured rather than ill, although there's no mention of illness for any of the changes so that might not be accurate.

    Apparently he's starting his own fitness training business in Cov. Maybe an indication that he doesn't have high hopes of getting to the level needed for Robins to consider adding him to the squad.

    Better line up than I feared. Doyle being ill at least forces Robins to not play the Doyle / Kelly partnership which doesn't seem to work. If Reid gets on surely he'll be looking to prove a point.

    Attendance Prediction

    There's merchandising outlets at the ground every game and today they have extra outlets in the exhibition hall.

    £5 tickets for Accrington - Community Day

    Credit where its due, whoever at the club has organised today has done a cracking job.

    No surprises from the clubs instagram. Haynes, McNulty, Burge, O'Brien, Ponti and Biamou all in the squad today.

    New Ricoh deal close / One Year Agreed

    Bizarrely there is a security of tenure regulation to be admitted to the Football League which is 10 years but once you're in Standardised Rule 2.3.2 applies:

    Tom Clarke of the Enemy

    Ruane has a point, and reactions like Clarke's highlight the problem. The people who own / run the venues are happy with a load of tribute bands and student nights and think the occasional band they book is the best that Coventry can get. We've got the Ricoh which holds 8K, Skydome holds 4K...

    New Ricoh deal close / One Year Agreed

    No fanfare as Ricoh are paying next to nothing after Wasps found out how much it was going to cost to remove all the signage!

    New Ricoh deal close / One Year Agreed

    Certainly clear where your loyalties lie when you suggest it is stupid to think that our fans should be unhappy at the prospect of Wasps making us homeless, to all intents and purposes meaning the end of the club.

    New Ricoh deal close / One Year Agreed

    That's the key point. Unless there is a suggestion that Wasps are turning away 20+ events that would take place in the stadium bowl and can only take place on days CCFC happen to have matches and not all the other days its not in use then how can having CCFC there not be a commercial advantage...

    I think the issue with that is that while anyone can put in for a JR winning one doesn't actually get you anything. There would be another court case to follow where SISU would go after damages. If they were no longer the owners of the club how would they get any damages awarded passed to them?

    Never heard of the Phoenix Supporters Trust. What's that all about? Is it just a supporters club like the Leamington and Warwick thing Juggy set up or are they looking to take over the Trust's role? If its the later why don't those involved just stand for election of the existing Trust?

    They haven't let Dale on again have they?
