Car overturned apparently, southbound closed. Wonder if there's any danger of kick off being delayed?

Subs: Burge, Haynes, Harries, C.Thomas, O'Brien, Kent, Tudgay.

Super sub Joe Cole coming on to score the winner. Edit: That's not going to be right as he's not on the bench!

#CCFC XI: Charles-Cook, Phillips, Martin, Ricketts, Stokes, Lameiras, Vincelot, Fleck, Murphy, Fortune, Armstrong.

That's another 2 people then :D Its the time of year when people are threatened with Xmas shopping. Think ahead and buy tickets in advance then you've got an excuse.

I can certainly see there being legal action to recover bid costs. Personally I think it should be moved but we're getting tight on time for another bidding process. Maybe a solution would be to share it between the other bidding counties (Belgium, Netherlands, England, Portugal and Spain)...

If you win you can test the 'can't even give them away' theory!

Kent wears Nike boots, Stokes wears Adidas so he's your best bet.

So would it be correct that Wasps purchased 50% of ACL from CCC with a 50 year Ricoh lease for £2.77. They then purchased a 200 year lease extension for £1m? If thats right the same point still broadly stands. How can a 200 year extension be worth £1m given the cost of the origianl lease and...

State aid wouldn't cover the sale of ACL to Wasps would it? Not sure where that would come in until the sale had been shown to be undervalue? Would have thought the more relevant area would be the councils responsibility to achieve best value under section 123 of the 1972 Local Government Act...

That's interesting. On what basis would you lodge a complaint with the European parliment over the sell of a CCC asset to a private company? Might be worth pursuing. Certainly asking CCC for any information draws a blank.

Happy days! Couldn't they have just popped into Tesco and got a new one?

Will be interesting to see how this plays out. There's a big difference between selling out 3 games featuring different teams to shifting 80K tickets for the same team every week. Especially if that team isn't one of the better performing. Remember the World League? That launched in a blaze of...

Should be a decent atmosphere. Shame we can't get the away fans moved closer.

Worse than that, CCC sold 50% of ACL for £2.77m, that 50% is now valued at £24.25m, that's a 775% increase in the space of 6 months!

No that's not what I'm saying at all. I am saying that at some point in the next 250 years there is a slight possibility that another stadium may become available to Wasps. If it does they may decide that is a better option and move again. Not sure why you've fixated on one possibility of a new...

Of course no one will bid that but I would doubt even SISU are expecting to get that back. That's not really how takeovers work is it? Did SISU pay back every penny of debt to the likes of Robinson when they took over the club? I would imagine should Wasps fail then the stadium, or at least...

I'm not sure if you're just playing dumb or genuinely don't understand. The Ricoh wasn't build to be left empty until Wasps turned up was it? But situations change and that's what ended up happening. What you are asserting is that over the 250 year term on the Ricoh there is zero chance of a...

I can't belive a single Coventry taxpayer would not want this investigated. We're not tallking about a small difference we're talking about 10s of millions at a time when local services are being cut. Either the council have failed the taxpayers or Wasps are supplying false information, which...

You think SISU are going to be here forever? You think at some point in the 250 years of the Ricoh lease we won't be taken over by someone else?
