    Nice of our players to finally decide to turn up!

    Got to be more to that surely? If there's millions and multiple properties what has happened in court for the judge to give her everything and leave him without a pot to piss in.

    Stand up if you've never watched Wasps

    The issue I have is that they were allowed by the local media to put out PR without anything being questioned. For example when they picked the Higgs for their training centre nobody questioned why they'd picked the only one of the thirty-something sites they'd supposedly looked at that would...

    And then it will somehow suddenly become unplayable when we bat on it!

    Stand up if you've never watched Wasps

    Its a no for me, never have and never will. Since I've moved back to Cov I don't think there's a game thats gone by where free tickets haven't been on offer at work. Quite simple for me, they shouldn't be here. It is unacceptable to move a club around the country solely for the owners financial...

    Friday night games

    Comparing our attendances in the fourth tier to Wasps in the top tier is ridiculous. If you follow the logic that Wasps are a bigger club in Coventry than us then they would get more than us if they were in the fourth tier. Does anyone really think Wasps v Sedgley Park would be pulling in 7K on...

    Whenever Burge kicks I always think he's carried it out of the area. Obviously he doesn't as a free kick has never been given, must be something about the way he kicks.

    Stoke Details Confirmed - Saturday 6th January

    Except the average ticket price is nothing like that and you've massively overstated the effect lower prices had on attendances: 2015/16, when they reduced the prices, an adult season ticket worked out at £11 per game, concessions were £8. Match tickets were £18 advance, £20 on the gate...

    Stoke Details Confirmed - Saturday 6th January

    Exactly, the rise in attendances didn't offset the reduction in ticket prices so the club took less money. That can work if you are getting all the other revenue streams but we don't.

    Christmas message from Dave...

    Great news about the academy. Looks like the Ricoh on a one or two year deal once they get past the hitch. Makes sense really. Don't want to put off any potential new owner by signing the club up to a long term deal.

    Fair play to their fans, a lot more turned up than I expected. Must be hard going having to watch that style of play every week.

    I was a bit annoyed when it was announced but I've changed my mind now. wouldn't say no to a couple more Friday night games.

    Christmas coming early apparently? / Dale Evans...

    Its a worry considering Hoff seems likely to be involved in any future takeover. If he can be taken in that easily what else will he fall for?

    Things that annoy you

    People constantly getting up and down at matches. Couple of chaps in front of me last night must have gone off to the concourse at least 5 times during the match.

    Transfer Rumour Baker

    Depends what he wants. Wouldn't want to be spending lots on him as that could be better used elsewhere. Given that he's been injured I'd offer him a low basic and then pay per appearance or something like that.

    Mascot experience today

    Good to hear positive things about the club. No matter what people think of the owners there's still some great people connected to the club who work hard on this sort of thing.

    Transfer Rumour Baker

    Not surprised. He's said he was set to come in over the summer until he got he offer from India. Given he's had a payout and been injured we can probably get him for less than before or even a pay as you play deal.
