    Armstrong

    Not really. McLaren says he's staying and Mowbray says it will be announced shortly.

    Any electricians on here?

    Sure you're all waiting to find out the cause. Where the main feed comes into the fuse box it splits into two for the two parts of the fusebox (I'm guessing two circuits). On one part the screw had come loose, that had caused a arc which had burnt out connection. He's patched it up temporarily...

    Burton Albion (Home) Match Thread

    Stokes back in training today apparently. Hopefully he'll be ready for the game.

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    Is that a clue to the next gig they're announcing :thinking about:

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    True but alcohol, in particular pints, have by far the biggest margin. Rule of thumb in my place if we sold £3K of beer a night that was £1K profit, £3K of soft drinks, food etc would be profit in the low hundreds at most. If they're doing that they are breaking the law. They have to provide...

    Any electricians on here?

    Cheers chaps, hopefully it is just a loose connection or something that can be fixed quickly. Should be someone coming out late this afternoon.

    Walsall Rumours

    If Celtic are interested I think they'll struggle to hold on to them. Shame for them but a bonus for us!

    Joe Cole

    I reckon he'll be in the Winter Olympic curling team. Have we got any ex-players who have represented their country at another sport?

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    Looked into this event a bit and it sounds like its a paid event. ie MTV are charging someone, presumably the Ricoh or the Council, a fixed fee to put the event on.

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    Generally a lot less than you would think. Don't know specifically for the Ricoh but I know of similar capacity venues that you can hire for less than £50K a day. Of course if you have someone like Oasis on you sell a ton of booze and make money that way. Not so much with this kind of thing as...

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    Nope, they lost that to the NEC.

    Any electricians on here?

    That's way past anything I'm going to attempt! The fusebox has a big red switch which turns the whole thing on or off. Then there's 2 lots of black switches. Each set has a switch which turns all of that set off. They are all labelled but only 3 of them seem to be working. All the others are...

    Uncomfortable reading....

    Why they feel the need to keep expanding the EU is beyond me. Should have stopped, at the latest, when they let the Nordic countries in back in 95. Since then its just been adding poorer counties in for the rest to support. You don't need to be an expert in politics, economics or similar to...

    Uncomfortable reading....

    That's the problem. There was no plan in place. Its pretty obvious people who are having bombs dropped on them are going to try and get out. If you move away from the mainstream media you can see that, despite what we're told, its not just ISIS being bombed. Hospitals, schools etc are being...

    Big announcement tomorrow - Ricoh Arena

    Found this in the Telegraph archives:

    Big announcement tomorrow - Ricoh Arena

    I've project managed lots of similar events and put the budgets together. What is required for One Big Weekend shouldn't really be costing much more than £50K.

    Any electricians on here?

    As far as I can tell. All the switches were still set to on when I checked so nothing has tripped it out. Its all fairly new (house is only about 3 years old), so you would hope it hasn't gone wrong already. At least I won't have to pay for it, just need to get them to actually send someone out!

    Antisocial Neighbours

    Used to live in a flat and it was fine for years until the council decided to rent it and placed a stereotypical 'chav' couple in there. They would have massive fights (police were called on more than one occasion), had blood down the shared hallway one morning, shared front door got smashed in...

    Any electricians on here?

    If so any ideas what might be wrong here. Was sat at home last night, lights flickered then everything went off for about 10 seconds. Came back on and then 5 minutes later went off again and stayed off. Thought it was a power cut but turned out to only be my house. The weird thing is the...

    Big announcement tomorrow - Ricoh Arena

    No chance it would have been anywhere near to £150K, more like a third of that. If CCC think it was £150K they are either doing something very wrong or money is going somewhere it shouldn't. But even if it was £150K you would have thought it was worth it to bring 10 times that into the city...
