Nice to hear stories like this. Reminds you that not all footballers are millionaires living the high life.

Virgin Trains used to run Southampton Airport to Cov. Was pretty handy, easy to park at the airport and if you booked early enough it was nice and cheap. Then someone else took over the franchise and its getting on for £100 return!

They could easily say anyone on the sex offenders register can't be employed. Footballers go into schools, kids hospitals etc. Nobody would challenge a ruling like that.

For those who don't have a ticket it looks like CWR is a good option. 3pm Lorna Bailey - Celebreating the Life of Jimmy Hill 5:30pm A Celebration of Jimmy Hills Life - Coverage from Coventry Cathedral 8pm Celebrating Jimmy Hill - Special about JH presented by Bobby Gould Google is your friend...

Its a strange thing for someone from a train operator to say. Someone must have fed him the stats. Why not just say we are trialling this with Wasps as they are funding it.

No chance. Do think the FA / FL need to make some regulations around what type of offenders can return to the game. We don't need months of speculation like with Evans.

For me its simple. You draw up a list of who needs to be represented (younger supporters, older supporters, long distance, disabled etc). Then ask people who represent each ground to put themselves forward and have a vote. Then on a rolling basis (so you don't replace everyone at once) say every...

Anyone on here got a local business? Could sponsor the JSBs.

Good luck. If its a boy call him Jimmy.

Not always. There used to be two tracks, Brandon and one at Lythalls Lane (pretty much next to car park C at the Ricoh). There was also two teams. What are now Coventry Bees were originally Brandon Speedway.

Think Fox will be more concerned with how many people are watching. More viewers = higher ad rates = more money for Fox. C5 have apparently paid over £1m an episode for the rights. Not really sure why the first episode got such a hard time from the critics. What were they expecting. Had to tie...

Does look pretty slick and if you subscribe to sports and movies its only a couple of quid more. Like that you can download this you've got recorded on your sky box to your tablet.

Is that someone kidnapping Sky Blue Sam on the right?

Its basic event management. You should never attempt to run at capacity the first time round. You run at 50 - 70% capacity, sometimes only one test event is run sometimes more. Why do you think there weren't 30K plus at our first game at the Ricoh?

Actually the stated concern was the waiting area. Do you think it will be one train holding 1000 or a shuttle train holding 150? Crowd congestion is still a potential issue. You should always test these things with smaller crowds. Hence why when things open there are test events and the like...

Strikes me as odd. They were worried about safety and congestion so they've picked the games with the biggest crowd :facepalm: Surely you would start with a low key game to make sure everything went OK.

Didn't bother waiting for Channel 5. Only 2 episodes left now. Have really enjoyed it. Pretty sure there will be more, the ratings have been great. Think short series like this is a much better option than an occasional film. Went back and watch all the old series last year. They stand up...
