Just about sums up the way the club is treated.

Would say this pretty much sums him up. Although I think he got an unfair amount of stick which probably knocked his confidence a bit. Murphy for me would be closer to getting in the Norwich side that Maddison.

Its not a bad idea. Just had a look on there and they are either oblivious to the damage Wasps are doing or don't care. They seem to think they are being perfectly reasonable or even helping us and CRFC. Without trying to start some sort of forum wars or taking shots at them it would be good...

Armstrong is in the CT saying they picked Higgs out of the 17 sites as its in the city centre and close to the Ricoh. Can someone get him a map of Coventry.

What details do you think we need? It is clear that the existing indoor pitch will be lost. We have an offer to use the Wasps facility when they aren't using it. That does not meet the requirements for a Cat 2 academy. Breed was asked by the CT if the academy could remain and didn't answer the...

Nobody is saying that. Just saying don't swallow the PR line that we can use it when Wasps aren't there and it will all be fine. That won't meet the academy requirements.

Think he's the Executive Director.

Which would mean we lose our Cat 2 status.

1. Firstly what is Maddisons best position? Behind the striker 2. What are his strengths and weaknesses? Falls over a lot, needs some time in the gym to get stronger 3. He is touted as a future star, from what you have seen so far do you believe he will live up to the hype? I'd be 50/50 on...

Thats what we should be doing however some people seem to prefer to deflect attention away from some parties and point the finger at SISU. Does nothing to resolve the issues.

That will be the key. I doubt the FA are saying when the football club isn't using it nobody else can. What they are saying is when the football club need it they get it. What happens when the inevitable happens and Wasps move their academy here? Will the evening hours no longer be available?

100% this. Its a CCFC forum, everyone on here is, or at least should be, a CCFC fan. The primary concern should be protecting the future of the club. Too many people suddenly appear when things like this happen and try and deflect any blame from the likes of Wasps, Higgs and CCC.

I was responding to a post saying younger fans wouldn't be able to buy tickets online. For anyone who can't use a computer they can phone up ticketmaster and do it that way. Or just pay on the gate.

Who sells out things like One Direction tours in seconds if kids aren't able to buy them? We're only moving to a system that the vast majority of events now use.

Exclusive use is probably either certain times of day or first option on times. So it could be used by others when not being used by the academy. That would make sense but its a long way from Wasps letting us hire it from them for a couple of hours at night.

It was a road subsiding wasn't it?

the rules state "shall be for the exclusive use of the Academy at all times" so I don't see how that can work.

Just a thought, what happened to Wasps buying the Severn Trent land? Isn't this all happening on Higgs land?

Do you know that for a fact? The plan on the CCC site only shows 1 pitch and shows that being changed to a rugby pitch with Wasps training centre being built in place of another pitch. So that's two gone. Wouldn't have thought existing pitches being changed from football to rugby would need to...
