    Quality of officiating

    Would probably help if they occasionally admitted to getting it wrong. Was watching a ice hockey game this week. Ref blew, realised he'd messed up. Went and apologies to both coaches and restarted with the equivalent of a dropped ball. You'd never see that in football. Agree that players need...

    Quality of officiating

    Tennis and cricket are the same, you lose a challenge if you're unsuccessful.

    Quality of officiating

    This is always the argument but it hasn't really done much harm to other sports. Can either be for the ref to ask for a replay or a set number of challenges per team.

    Christ, David Bell played more often than Thomas does.

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    I assume you also want Richardson out at your beloved Wasps then? Maybe you can tell us which of the rebranding work was a change that had to be made? How can you be certain they are here for the long term? Did't they have a stake in Loftus Road when they were playing there, didn't stop them...

    Coventry city fans

    The law can be a bit weird with things like this. If you catch a burglar in your house and give them a whack you can find yourself up on charges, imagine this would be similar if the fan pressed charges.

    Coventry city fans

    Seems our lot weren't the only ones who had a few beers before the game. Derbyshire Police sound like they were having a few vision problems!

    Leeds block Sky cameras

    Apparently FL games can get moved to accommodate TV coverage at a much later date than PL. He is claiming this causes problems for fans and the team's preparations. Think he's got a point to be honest.

    So, it now looks like

    Yep, just think back to the comments when we were in pre-season! Quite a lot of people were expecting a relegation battle.

    Leeds block Sky cameras

    Apparently the need over 4 hours to setup minimum so if they don't let them in very soon its not going to be on. Will be interesting what side the FL takes, especially if other clubs voice concerns over the number of live games and / or fixtures being moved to times that are difficult for...

    Too short wasn't it. Did that actually happen or is it an urban myth?

    Leeds block Sky cameras

    Leeds home game against Derby is supposed to be live on Sky tonight. Slight problem though as they aren't letting Sky into Elland Road. Their owner thinks they've been on too many times , this is the 9th game, and its affecting attendances.

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    No I'm not. My argument and opinion is that we should stay open to all possibilities and be provided with as much current information, that stands up to scrutiny, as possible.

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    I'm not throwing caution to the wind or championing anything. I'm saying keep our options open and get as much reliable information as possible to make an informed choice. Although in terms of 'repeating the same mistakes' if we could have an outlay of £10m and get a stadium complex like the...

    Dominic Samuel?

    Think its just because we had him before. More wishful thinking than anything based in fact.

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    Again you don't know that because you don't know how any new ground would be funded or how much income would be generated. Who is better off: Team A have no debt and pay £100K a year in rent but receive no income Team B are £100m in debt but receive £10m a year in income Hugely oversimplified...

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    I would rather we had our own stadium than play in an increasing Wasps branded stadium, that is absolutely correct. However if it is shown that staying at the Ricoh under Wasps is the best option then that would be the route I would support, albeit while hoping for Wasps to fail or a billionaire...

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    They have seen figures for our previous Championship seasons, they have seen figures for 91 other clubs, they have seen what happened to Stockport. Can they be 100% certain, of course not, but that doesn't mean anything should be ruled out.
