    Probably because when these things get mentioned everyone agrees and nobody starts jumping up and down saying SISU are the greatest businessmen ever and should be admired. However say anything against Wasps and that's exactly what you get. Anything that could be seen as a negative against Wasps...

    Yes, there will be at least the Community Sheild and Rugby Challenge Cup Final.

    What? Much more football and rugby than gigs at both grounds. Emirates is, they had no issue staging a round robin pre-season tournament a couple of years ago after multiple gigs had taken place in the summer. Not sure what you're both failing to grasp here. Other clubs have their grounds...

    But why is that an issue for us and not elsewhere? There's 9 gigs currently scheduled for Wembley this summer, and I believe at least another one yet to be added. Isn't impacting football or rugby being played there.

    At no point have I said everything is good at CCFC. I'm addressing the particular point you have made. What good will extra entertainment do before and after matches. People go to football to watch football - that's it. Unless you have some evidence to show otherwise it is a complete waste of...

    What is a full match day experience supposed to mean. Most people want to turn up just before the game, watch the match and then leave. We don't need to be wasting money on the sort of rubbish Wasps put on. Besides which it would benefit Wasps more than us. They'd charge us more and get the F&B...

    So what you're saying is unlike every other club in the country our pitch is of such a poor standard that it can't be used for pre-season friendlies, charity matches etc.

    No more season tickets

    At a guess they will take 2 or 3 months upfront so you're always ahead of where you would be if buying individual tickets. Depending on the ticketing system they will then either add it to an electronic ticket or mail you tickets.

    3 to be called up for England

    You do have to laugh. Since he signed for Norwich his form has gone downhill so he now gets picked for England! Hope that means we get a bit more money out of them.

    Don't know why this is such a complicated issue for some. Seems simple to me. CCFC Should play in Coventry. Should not have moved to Northampton even on a temporary basis without a solid justification - if there was one they did little to get that message over to the fans. Everyone had to make...

    What are you currently listening to?

    Saw Chris Stapleton at the O2 on Sunday. Was incredible. It was just him on guitar and vocals, his wife on backing vocals, a drummer and bassist. The four of them were huddled into the middle of the stage with just a couple of lights on them. The response he got was amazing, half the crowd were...

    Ryan Kent

    How much gametime has he had up there? I'd take him back - although that gives us a headache again with the number of loan players. His final product wasn't great but he was useful in that he scared defenders and pulled them out of position.

    They sell 5ft x 3ft flags on the club site: http://ccfc.clubstore.co.uk/cc-7152-mega-flag Only £11 and says they are in stock.

    Coventry Arena Station

    The issue I have is that the spin is never challenged by the CT. They pretty much copy and paste what Wasps want them to print. Take this story If it was SISU and CCFC who had lost money running trains well below capacity they wouldn't have allowed Fisher to come out with a statement like that...

    Coventry Arena Station

    Also worth pointing out its only the regular service if it does stop so it will be of no use if big numbers are planning on using it.

    WASPS Interim Accounts

    The difference between football and rugby is about the price of a pint at the Ricoh. Given that you can drink in your seat at the rugby and Wasps have the bars open, and entertainment provided, for hours before and after matches I'm surprised the difference isn't greater.

    For how long and how much?

    Let's help the BST and Tangerine Knights

    NOPM! Fair enough really, sure most people can manage to go 90 mins without buying food. Just stay in the pub for an extra pint rather than buying one at the ground.
