    Eating after the game - anyone tried the hotel?

    There was Singers but that might be a bit fancy for a kids birthday. That's if its even still open as its being rebranded by Wasps and being made more like a rugby club house whatever that means. Not sure there's much else apart from Costa actually at the ground.

    You might not be aware but there are photos of us playing at the Ricoh that exist from before Wasps logos were plastered all over the place.

    What does being on the radar even mean? If you're talking in terms of sponsorship or advertising then, in common with most football clubs, you're looking at local companies past a handful of national deals. I can't imagine we're off the radar to any of them. So what else are you looking at...

    MTV has an average audience share of 0.1% Their ratings are in freefall as their target demographic happily goes to the likes of YouTube to watch whatever music video they want when they want.

    Armstrong

    I think there's a league rule that anyone who's on loan until the end of the season can't be recalled. Need to check if that is only if they sign at the start of the season.

    Antisocial Neighbours

    I know there's always been areas that are better than others but it was never as bad as it is now was it? Wonder if its down to a reluctance to step in these days? Not that I blame anyone when there's every chance of getting knifed over the slightest little thing.

    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...

    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?

    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.

    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...

    Nope, they lost that to the NEC.
