Not that its likely to happen but could you in theory have the speedway sharing with a football team without having a massive gap between the fans and the pitch? Think they've had speedway at the millennium stadium before.

The average would be helped by playing the likes of Villa, Wolves and Brum. They'd bring way more than any visiting team now and as we've seen in the past it snowballs. Club say Wolves have sold 4K for example and suddenly its a big match that people want to go to.

No idea, I was convinced he wouldn't go through with it last time and he did. The assumption at the moment appears to be we will be offered another short term deal but there doesn't seem much evidence to support that. What happens if ACL continue to refuse to speak to the club. As we keep being...

I am, that's why my original post was pointing out that the way this has played out works in Fishers favour. He can go to the FL, if Wasps continue to refuse to talk to the club, and say there is no choice other than to leave the city again. As I said in my original post the FL aren't going to...

Get him signed quick before they realise we're in L1!

But it doesn't have to be one or the other does it? Up until the point Wasps showed up everything our current owners had done could be relatively easily reversed by new owners. And we still had a half decent chance of attracting new owners. You can't say the same now. A new owner needs to fund a...

There won't be room for both unless our academy kids are going to play underwater. The pool, supposedly nothing to do with Wasps but has rugby facilities in the plans, will see the removal of the indoor pitch, a key academy requirement and Wasps are taking outdoor pitches for their sole use...

What is misleading. As soon as the council were aware of the club talking to CRFC about a groundshare they made moves to insert a clause in the lease that would make that impossible.

There will be interest on loans in the accounts, just because its not been paid out doesn't mean its written off. People seem to be under the impression that the £1m is somehow spare. Even if it wasn't EBIT and was actually profit it still wouldn't mean we have £1m to spend as it would depend on...

Are you just being obtuse or do you really not understand? I'll try and make it as easy as possible for you. There was an exiting clause which only allowed rugby at the Butts - whether this was enforced or not is irrelevant. CCFC held talks with Sharp regarding a groundshare. Sharp plans to buy...

There was, they got taken over by Coventry United and rebranded.

Agreed. Like the latest piece where he says if fans turn up we can be successful. We know there's a good chance of that working at L1, or L2 if it comes to it, level but when we get in to the championship even with large crowds we have less revenue than pretty much every other team. He's...

Is the rugby club run by a load of school kids? Are they expecting anyone to sympathise with them acting this way?

I saw Malaka drinking a Red Bull. Can only mean one thing.

Have we made some sort of deal where we get paid for taking these American players?

Fisher is still here because whoever actually employs him is happy with his performance. It's not like when he's taken a back seat for someone else to ruin things it's been any better, if anything it's been worse. People keep making the mistake that the owners want a successful club when in...

The clause in place doesn't allow any sport apart from rugby. There was a requirement to change it as part of CRFC purchasing the lease. When it became know CCFC were talking to CRFC about a groundshare CCC wanted to get the clause amended to forbid professional football.

The current lease is rugby only, that is being changed (if it wasn't Cov Utd wouldn't be able to play there). The suggestion from the council was that as part of the change a clause was inserted to allow other uses but specify that professional football couldn't be played there.

Clearly its going to be difficult, and getting more difficult by the week, but we need to get behind the team and hope they can pull of a great escape. A lot will depend on how the rest of the transfer window goes.

So it sounds like the rugby club are blocking access via their land but there is also access via the football clubs land. The current plan seems to be to alter the ground so that they aren't in anyway reliant on the rugby land. Also heard that they have put skips around the mini bus the...
