    I think we've got the nucleus of a very good team

    And there's the problem, it's great having all these players come through but we appear to make little effort to keep hold of them and build a team. I appreciate we're in L1 and limited in what we can offer them but how hard are we trying to persuade players to stay and mount a serious promotion...

    Ricoh Open Day ... This is how to do it.

    He also said there's no PR machine, no decision had been made on dressing rooms, they aren't a franchise and he didn't know what colour the seats were in Wycombe so hardly the most reliable source. I'm sure our own rugby club, the one that is based in our community and has been for 140 years...

    U21 v Forest - Trialist Striker?

    Whoever he is he's not scored yet, 2-0 down at the moment.

    Exit stratergy

    Why don't SISU try making Wasps an offer for 50% of ACL? They could offer say £5m. Wasps would near double their investment overnight, still own 50% and guarantee us sticking around long term therefore increasing overall revenues. They may tell us to get stuffed but surely worth a try.

    Temporary Pitch looking better already ?

    Let's hope someone remembered to order the new turf!

    Ricoh Open Day ... This is how to do it.

    Wasps did one of these a couple of weeks ago and all the coaches got stuck in traffic for hours :p

    "The preferred site for the new stadium was revealed..."

    I don't live locally but everytime SISU building a new stadium actually in Coventry is mentioned all the responses are how there's not a suitable site yet now we have Ward saying he doesn't know where it is but it's in the city and Strange knows where it is but can't tell anyone. It's just as...

    "The preferred site for the new stadium was revealed..."

    How would that actually work, is there any means for members of the SCG to get voted out? How did the members get picked in the first place?

    "The preferred site for the new stadium was revealed..."

    At this stage people aren't asking SISU for commercial details they just want to know where this alleged new stadium is! You can look up hundreds of clubs proposed new stadiums, some that ended up happening and many who didn't, and find out the proposed location for all of them. I can tell you 3...

    Has the penny dropped yet?

    Given the price they have sold to Wasps at and the lease extension they have been given I can't see any reason CCC wouldn't have been able to offer similar terms to us. If anything the opposite would be true, CCC could make an argument for selling at below market value to us for the good of the...

    "The preferred site for the new stadium was revealed..."

    Preferred site is a very vague phrase. I would prefer to live in the Midlands to get to more games but I'm not actively looking to move for at least 2 years. I can go on rightmove and look at multimillion pound homes that would be my preferred residence but I don't have the means to purchase any...

    "The preferred site for the new stadium was revealed..."

    How convenient! It's almost like it's a load of BS as usual. Wasn't sure who Peter Ward was so googled him and got this report from the CT "Peter Ward ... who has previously been reported stating he believes Sisu are acting in the best interests of the football club" and of course it's been...

    "The preferred site for the new stadium was revealed..."

    So as Jonathan Strange and Peter Ward were there representing the fans I assume we will shortly have a report from them giving us full details of the preferred site and the vision of an integrated stadium, training ground and academy.

    Comedy DVD's

    Not a DVD but I would highly recommend Mark Thomas's new show Cuckooed. It's on at Warwick Uni on 27th Feb. Dylan Moran and Reg Hunter are both playing the Uni as well, both worth a look.

    Pressley really has lost the dressing room.

    That was directed as intheknow specifically as he seems to love having them here. I appreciate nobody else is welcoming them with open arms, in fact the number of people who think any good at all will come from Wasps being based in the city appears to be rapidly dwindling.

    Relegation battle or not ....

    While I don't think our squad is anywhere near as good as last year I don't think it's a squad that should be getting us relegated. That said our form traditionally dips after Xmas and SP seems to struggle to get the best out of the players or be able to get us out of a slump. Don't think we'll...

    Pressley really has lost the dressing room.

    So because our current owners are incompetent we should welcome Wasps with open arms and ignore the potential long term damage? Yes SISU are useless but after SISU have gone we will hopefully have better owners and better owners would most likely want stadium ownership, now very difficult if not...

    Pressley really has lost the dressing room.

    They were actually being praised for it but gave a bizarre answer claiming they weren't making a big PR effort. That is exactly the kind of thing that is annoying people. If they keep saying one thing and doing the other then, exactly as with SISU, how is anyone supposed to believe anything they...

    Pressley really has lost the dressing room.

    You can't be one of our fans with this level of optimism on everything. The CCFC crest is being moved, they haven't stated to where yet. The seats remain but a far from convincing answer was given at the Q&A, i don't think anyone is confident they are remaining Sky Blue when they are in need...

    Pressley really has lost the dressing room.

    a) I have not said they are only in this to do damage to CCFC I am saying their actions are taking a very different course from their statements. If they had come in and said Wasps will have priority but they will do what they can to minimise the impact on CCFC then fair enough but they didn't...
