    Jimmy's Statue

    Should move Jimmy to the city centre or a spot that has some CCFC significance. If we do ever get a new ground it can always be moved again. The memorial garden, and the bricks for that matter, are trickier to move as you need to find somewhere the relatives would deem acceptable. I like how...

    Election 2015

    Didn't take long, look like its all kicking off around Westminster. Wasn't it Clegg who said before the previous general election 'if the tories win there will be riots on the streets'? He was right then and it looks like we might be getting more of the same. In other news UKIP supporters are...

    Election 2015

    If Scotland does anything like it has done in this election its not going to be easy for Labour to get back in. There's always been a north south divide in voting and now the north part of the divide has essentially been split in two.

    Today's game

    We've had big crowds and we managed to do it without the ground being two thirds full of away fans.

    Election 2015

    I think the biggest stumbling block is people are tied to the idea of having their own MP. That's despite most people probably never having anything to do with them in their lifetime.

    Arena railway station progressing

    Is that the chap who's childhood dream was to play at the Ricoh despite it not existing when he was a child who then announced he was leaving Wasps?

    TV Thread

    I thought we had a general TV thread but I can't find it so apologies if I've created a duplicate. Renewals time is here for the US networks. The Following has been cancelled, quite liked that personally even if it was a massive 24 rip off. Just hoping they wrap things up at the end of the...

    2015 Pre Season

    Probably about a mile away. Occasionally go in the Florence when I'm out walking the dog (that's not a euphemism!).

    Election 2015

    Its all to do with swing! Its easier to understand if you imagine it as just Con v Lab. Lets say there's 100 seats, to get a majority you need 51. Now say in the last election Con had 55 and Lab 45. Lab need to gain 6 seats to win. They will look for the 6 seats where Con had the smallest...

    Arena railway station progressing

    If Google Maps is to be believed (is that like Wiki and anyone can change things?) the station will be Coventry Arena

    Stadium Name Change ?

    Don't mean to single you out but why are people now regularly posting this as fact?

    Election 2015

    Interesting to look at the difference PR would mean to the seat allocation in the commons, (FPTP in brackets): Conservative = 240 (331) Labour = 198 (232) UKIP = 82 (1) Lib Dem = 51 (8) SNP = 30 (56) Greens = 25 (1) That of course is based on the recent vote, I would say it is likely in a PR...

    2015 Pre Season

    A game down south would be welcome for me as there's not going to be many league fixtures closer than going to the Ricoh for me next season.

    New Music

    Went to see Striking Matches last night, excellent as always. Would recommend their album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRwrkh9Fdkg

    Stadium Name Change ?

    I do find it slightly annoying that JLR have been here years and done little for CCFC but are now all over Wasps.

    Club aims to raise £35m from bond

    Manhattan had a meeting with the council and practically ran to the airport to get back to the states never to be seen again. There was another group, who's name I can't remember, that CCC ridiculed for wanting to develop around the ground, i recall a quote from the council that 'it's not a...

    Election 2015

    Miliband press conference imminent. These must be some of the quickest post election resignations we've had. 3 leaders quitting before lunchtime.
