    The New Stadium-SISU please tell us the truth!!

    The first thing I'd like to know is how much all this extra revenue is likely to add up to. You can't really look at the Ricoh as a guide as that's an exception, how many stadiums have similar facilities. If we look at someone likes Southamptons accounts would it be possible to work out what...

    A team from the players we let go/didn't sign

    Why have you picked that back four? Given the criteria you could have had Keogh Turner Dann Fox who have all moved on to play at a higher level.,have then playing in front of Westwood and I'd be lot more confident than I am now! You'd take McDonald over Wilson? I'd even take Juke over...

    Rumours over the years

    The Vince McMahon is taking us over one is my favourite.

    Has anyone got any updates from the SBT meeting tonight?

    Ranson makes the most sense but we should avoid jumping to conclusions before follow up questions are asked. It could just be that Ranson pointed them in the direction of the Ricoh and pocketed a finders fee, doesn't mean he's mounting a takeover bid.

    The future

    This is what I've wanted to see for a long time. Explain their business plan and how that is going to benefit the club while enabling them to get a ROI which is after all their primary aim. If it's a new stadium show us how it all stacks up, if it's renting what deal do we need to be sustainable...

    Carl baker

    If that's the case doesn't that point to a problem with SP, how many other players can't he get to perform to their full potential? Again that would lead me to question SP's role in this. He has changed the 'Coventry way' and now we're sitting in 18th, 2 points off the relegation places...

    Has anyone got any updates from the SBT meeting tonight?

    Would be interesting to know who approached who. Did Wasps see an empty stadium and see an opportunity or were CCC actively pursuing anyone they thought might be interested. Does make you wonder if any of this would have happened if we had been playing there last season.

    Has anyone got any updates from the SBT meeting tonight?

    MGI, at least from it's website, looks more like a financial services company than a hedge fund. Do they actually own a stake in Moonshine, and if so how much, or do they provide services to them? As you point out if MGI own Moonshine and Moonshine own Wasps then Richardson doesn't own anything.

    Has anyone got any updates from the SBT meeting tonight?

    I'd say it's just a happy side effect that we get a better pitch. Speaking of which someone told me rugby pitches have longer grass than football pitches, how is that going to work? Wouldn't want it to stop us playing the Coventry way!

    In the same way Wimbledon "moved" to Milton Keynes?

    Has anyone got any updates from the SBT meeting tonight?

    I'm not sure how it can not be franchising. They could argue they had no other option but it's still moving a club miles away from it's home.

    I think I'm going to be sick !

    The figure for the first game isn't going to show us much, look how many turned up for Gillingham! The more telling figure will be next season. Presumably by then the freebies will have been massively scaled back and they'll have to try and sell season tickets to people travelling a long way...

    Strange Feeling

    I presume he means Wasps put a ticketing system in place for the stadium and we use it instead of our current system which falls over fairly easily. Don't think that will happen as Wasps appear to be using Ticketmaster at the moment which we could sign up for easily enough if we wanted to. I...

    Meet Wasps Tonight And Ask Your Questions

    Not to single you out but I never understand posts like this. Why don't people who think this go along and ask a question?

    Baker exit -football reasons or wages?

    Chap I work with goes to MK, he's taken great delight telling me how well Baker has been playing. Text me at the end of the game yesterday saying he'd had a blinder and setup two goals.

    Walsall Match Thread

    probably along the lines of need to give it more oomph. was working yesterday and had no internet and poor mobile so couldn't really keep up with the game too well, sounds like I didn't miss much.

    Buy Walsall tickets online - print or collect tickets?

    If it's too late to post them you have to collect them I think. I've never seen any option to print them at home.

    Delusion?

    I think if SISU put in an application to build a stadium in the city it would be up to us to get behind them and put pressure on the council to give it the green light. The council may want to reject it out of spite but the more pressure on them to accept the better. If they did then reject it...

    Delusion?

    Wouldn't an appeal take it out of the councils hands?
