    New kit announced in the coming days

    The retro kit and the FA Cup one we used against Spurs were both bespoke. Believe you can have bespoke so long as you hit a certain minimum order. See Puma / Newcastle have managed to unveil their new kit with the Wonga logo on it a few hours after Wonga changed their logo and are now...

    Waggot and Fisher

    Fisher got pushed out to pretty much just working on the fantasy stadium didn't he? Waggot does some of the management of the business side as when they were talking about the ticketing issues around the return to the Ricoh he took the blame for that and said it was his decision to either have...

    Other income streams

    If I was in charge of this project my first choice site would be the bit of land bordered by the M69, Central Blvd into the business park and Hill Park Wood. The infrastructure is pretty much there, believe there's even an underpass already in place. Business Park could provide additional...

    Other income streams

    Broadstreet wouldn't be too dissimilar would it? You could probably make an argument for Ansty Business Park as well although the bulk of the housing there would be the other side of the showcase from any new ground.

    season tickets /regular attendance

    Mowbray was talking in his press conference about making sure we have the right players and making sure we keep them under contract so they are here for as long as we want them and can't just walk away for nothing at the end of the season.

    To be fair he said he was talking his phone with him and would still be working every day.

    Tony Mowbray midlands today interview in full...

    From the press conference on Sky Blues Player he's got money but he'd rather spend it on wages than fees. He's happy that he's got pretty much a clean slate so lots of funds, relatively speaking, to work with rather than having to get rid of people to bring someone in. His theory seems to be...

    Other income streams

    It's all part of the Ricoh / Tesco site isn't it? People talk like you just open a business and make a fortune. A hell of a lot of business fail totally and a lot more don't make a great profit. I'm not sure going off at a tangent with a new business is the way forward. We have people employed...

    Aspirations

    As bad as our squad was last year if we had beaten 5 teams at home who finished below us we would have been in the play offs. With a better squad and a better manager the play offs should be the minimum we are aiming for. As irrelevant as the JPT is in the grand scheme of things I wouldn't say...

    This Player Cull / Retain List

    Can't really disagree with any of that. When it came up on my facebook feed the way it had been shortened made it look like we'd retained Nouble, Barton and Webster!

    This Player Cull / Retain List

    Possibly but would that be players who have agreed to stay? If they're out of contract they could go anywhere, would they agree to stay at this stage if they thought they could get a better offer elsewhere?

    Mowbray Era Begins The Choices

    I'm working on the basis that he is happy with the budget on offer as early on in the contract talks it was said that finance was not one of the issues that needed to be discussed. I can't imagine he's agreed to manage on a budget he doesn't feel gives a chance of success.

    This Player Cull / Retain List

    I don't really get this to be honest, we've only got about 12 players under contract and most of them are kids. You can't just let players go if they are under contract and if they aren't under contract you can't say they aren't going to leave so what exactly is this list of released / retained...

    Mowbray Era Begins The Choices

    You can apply this to a lot of positions in our side. We have a lot of good kids who we need to bring through and develop. If we can get a bit of success who knows we might manage to hold onto them for a couple of season rather than selling as soon as there's any interest. However we can't...

    financial fair play

    FFP doesn't apply in our division does it, isn't it SCMP or something like that?

    Mowbray confirmed via club twitter

    Similar budget to this year, which I'm guessing there is as finance apparently wasn't one of the issues being discussed with SISU as he was happy with it, then we should be aiming top 6.

    How does the retained list work? Aren't players are either in contract or not in contract?
