    Coventry City scrap match-day price increase, and beer reduced.

    Well done all round. Hopefully they won't bring back the matchday increase until we get to a point where we're filling the place and you can push people to buying in advance - if that day ever comes!

    U21s 2015/16

    The club should setup a system like QPR have for these games. Can't be that hard, just sign up on youtube and it was only 1 camera feed.

    Cash Flow Positive

    That's my point, they are using a term that most people probably don't come across very often and trying to make it sound like something it isn't. They are saying cash flow positive as if its a shining example of how well they are running the club but it doesn't really mean that at all.

    Cash Flow Positive

    You know that when they are so careful to say cash flow positive rather than something like no debt or making a profit they are trying to pull a fast one. Of course they're cash flow positive, the wage budget has been cut again based on being at Sixfields and now we're back at the Ricoh selling...

    Not going to the Ricoh...

    All those Villa fans can't wait until we move a bit closer so they can stop supporting Villa in the Prem and come and watch us instead! This is where the franchising argument falls down in football. Where are you going to move someone to? Sure if Man Utd decided to move to Brum they would get...

    Stadium Forum - outline minutes

    To me that just shows had bad they are at running everything. Only a month after sorting a 4 year contract it turns out that's not what they need and they want another year. What's happened in the last month that's delayed fantasty land by a year?

    Pressley on cwr

    I get the idea of protecting the players and not constantly having a go at them in public but sometimes you need to do it. We've just picked up 1 point from 6 playing 2 poor, out of form, teams. He should be saying it as it is, that its totally unacceptable and what he's going to do about it...

    vs Crewe

    1 point in 5 games is certainly relegation form. The last 2 games should have been a guaranteed 6 points, even with a slip up at worst 4 points. To have only got 1 point is simply unacceptable. This has all the hallmarks of the championship relegation season. Let better players go and replaced...

    Wasps to get off on the wrong foot with SISU?

    Good point, you need to be careful about making these things public. With so many other teams wanting to build training facilities you never know who might try and get in before you.

    I might just go and watch Wasps

    This is what baffles me about SISU. No matter what is happening in the background it isn't that difficult to put someone out front who comes across well and says all the right things - irrespective of if they believe what they're saying or not. Instead we've had a steady stream of total idiots...

    Wasps to get off on the wrong foot with SISU?

    No idea if it is going be near the arena but apparently Wasps unveiled the plans for their new training ground at a ST holder Q&A and from the comments on their forum it's pretty impressive stuff. Big complex with indoor and outdoor pitches. Sure the plans will turn up online before too long.

    vs Crewe

    This is dire. Any team on a bad run must love it when they see they've got us next game. Why can we never put away these teams, last week and this week we should have been looking at boosting our goal difference but chances are instead we're going to end up with 1 point out of 6. You may well...

    Black and White

    Used to go to some Cambridge United games when I lived down there. They were knocking around what is now L1 / L2 level at the time and pretty much everyone of their supporters supported a prem team as well, mainly Arsenal or Spurs as they were both fairly close.

    Steve Cotterill

    For it to be effective it needs to be a big points deduction, they also need to sort out the issue regarding moving between the FL and PL.

    Would you now back a new ground?

    My suspicion was always that they wanted to get it on the cheap and then mortgage it to the hilt. They could then use that money to pay the 'debt' to themselves, whether money they had genuinely put in or paper debt and walk away from the club by selling or letting the club go into admin. That...

    Would you now back a new ground?

    I've never understood the line of thought that the club was just a pawn in a property development deal. The same thing is being said of Wasps now. Doesn't' make sense to me, if you want to be a property developer you don't need to buy a team to hide it behind you just get on and do it. About...

    Would you now back a new ground?

    My stance hasn't changed really. If SISU can give a credible business case for a new ground and demonstrate how it will create a sustainable successful club I'd be happy to support it. Obviously dependent on location. Don't think I'm going to get that though. They could have done that when they...

    Higgs statement

    So when we moved to Sixfields our new stadium was going to be ready in 3 years or 5 at the worst, that would be 2016/17 or 2018/19. We then move back to the Ricoh on the same schedule but just a month after moving back Fisher is already pushing it back to 2019/2020. If that was likely why not...

    Now England are being franchised too!

    Haven't got a problem with this really. The NFL has long been a franchise sport and have been talking about moving a team to England for years. Not sure they will be able to sustain 80K crowds week in week out but we'll see. England playing round the country is a positive for me. It worked well...
