    Kevin Pieterson

    It's a total joke. Graves told him to get a county and score runs and that it was a clean slate. He's given up a 7 figure payday to play for Surrey, donating his Surrey wages to charity, is scoring runs and is told he's got no chance of getting picked. I could understand it if England were...

    Put that in your pipe Wasps !

    I can't stand rugby but if CRFC get properly stitched up by Wasps playing the same day I'd be tempted to go to a game to show support for them.

    Channel 4 show about knocking down Grand Designs

    I liked the way all the press that turned up were moaning about being filmed! There was a good bait and switch, they said at the start that one of the Mums hadn't worked for 15 years. Twitter predictably exploded. 30 mins later turned out one of her kids had severe brain damage and she was his...

    Mogga talks

    Didn't we go through this when he joined us originally. It dragged on for ages and everyone assumed SISU had messed up again only for him to sign. Not sure there's a lot to worry about at the moment. If TM and SISU were miles apart we would have already had confirmation he isn't signing so on...

    SBT sold to Wasps???

    This is what greeted me on the forum this morning: Have we been franchised off to Wasps? Should we be expecting a new yellow and black layout?

    Well Wasps certainly will if your idea of paying the same level of rent that crippled us is implemented.

    mowbray talks

    Should we read anything into it taking place at Ryton? Is it the final few details ahead of confirming and they want him here to talk to the local press?

    Today's game

    I think the mistake you're making is that you're assuming people saying one thing is wrong, Wasps being at the Ricoh, means they are saying there is no blame elsewhere. I don't think anyone, apart from maybe RFC, thinks that. Everyone agrees that SISU have made a mess of running the club, to...

    What's been removed from Ryton? I would have thought if there's not enough CCFC related stuff up there it is because its never been there not because someone has gone round and taken it all down. Just checked on the Ricoh and from what I'm told the first batch of stuff was removed by 'a fans...

    I was told the club were informed all CCFC related stuff was to go in the dressing room only. My understanding is Waggott is trying to get this changed so at least our stuff is up on matchdays.

    32000 crowd

    If this is the sort of difference we are talking about then doesn't the blame lie with ACL? Why are they not putting on the same at our games? We pay rent and aren't allowed to operate F&B because of the Compass contract so it sounds like we're getting second class treatment.

    Maddison wanted by United and Spurs

    If he goes to Spurs maybe we can have their old ground when they build the new one.

    From the link you posted "The Local Plan is a long term plan – it will mean we are in control of growth in and around our city up to 2031" CCC have said their are no viable sites for a stadium in Coventry in their city plan, Maton confirmed that in the CT. Rugby have said get more detailed...

    Wasps tried to move to Saturdays before moving to the Ricoh apparently but fans were against it so a vote was taken and the change rejected. To get round that problem they haven't bothered asking the fans this time.

    The next city plan for Coventry is due to be 2031. Even moving relatively quickly we'd be looking at 2035 onwards for a new ground. Personally with those time scales I don't think it's something we need to worry about just yet and makes sense to look at other options that give a more acceptable...

    There is already a city plan in place that covers Coventry, Cllr Maton who is responsible for planning, confirmed to the CT that there was no site in the city that could potentially be used for a new stadium. RBC are currently working on their city plan, there is an opportunity for a new...

    CCC have clearly stated there is no viable location within the city boundary for a new stadium.

    No one is saying move without seeing any detail, they are saying don't discount the possibility that a new stadium offers a better future and that it should be fully investigated. You're the one blindly saying we should sign up with Wasps for decades to come no matter how bad the deal is and...
