    Looong shot.

    on the subject of touting saw an advert at Tottenahm for StubHub, thought it was a bit odd as that's a resale site. Seems that you can tout so long as you do it through the clubs official resale partner so that they get a cut. don't really see the difference myself and surely any regular tout...

    ACL and the City Council announcement

    don't have the documents to hand but wasn't the value of the land in the original project only around £2m? If you assume that a default on the loan means a failing business that's not a whole lot of security. If this was such a great way to do business and a benefit to ACL and the taxpayers of...

    ACL and the City Council announcement

    I won't be pretend to be anything close to a financial expert but I can't help having the feeling this could be bad news for CCFC and to be frank I am far more concerned about CCFC being able to continue than I am ACL.. The first thing that occurs to me is that we are constantly told ACL, prior...

    New kit 2013/14 ?????

    Are we still with Puma next year? I had always assumed that we had no option but to have one of their standard designs and therefore a limited choice but as we had the retro kit and the 87 kit it would appear this is not the case so why not run some sort of competition to design a kit for next...

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    They could always do something really radical and play some of the kids, they've got 3 of them out on loan at the moment!

    Jay Tabb leaves Reading

    didn't he leave here because he was homesick and wanted to move back closer to home? if so there's not much chance of him coming back again.

    Anyone been to a City game with conflicting hopes of the outcome?

    I've got the exact same problem. I'm due to be in New York that week and have spent £1,325 of which only about £100 is refundable. Really don't know what I'll do if we get to the final, can't afford to throw away that sort of money but equally can't stand the thought of missing the big day out...

    ACL Should pay CCFC

    If the club is responsible for the pitch what happens when someone else uses it? I wouldn't be too happy paying to maintain the pitch and then someone comes along and has a rugby match on it or a concert!

    EBay is your best bet, most legit stores won't ship them here as it's against apples T&Cs.

    Joy

    i don't see any reason her being in another country would stop anything unless they're all getting round a table a the Ricoh everyday which I can't see being how it's done. They do have phones and email in the states so no reason it would make a difference.

    James Bailey

    how does it work if he doesn't get sold as soon as the window opens. can he be loaned back to us but with a recall clause should he be sold to someone else?

    Fit and proper persons test

    didn't the FL reveal it was just a self certify system and they couldn't really challenge anyone as they wouldn't be able to afford any potential legal battle. probably still exists everyone has just worked out it means very little.

    Could the Ricoh be expanded?

    Doesn't seem as tho they've built in an easy way to upgrade. Guess the option would be to build a second tier on the tesco side. there's enough land that side to allow that. Given that they haven't allowed for it prob wouldn't be cheap. I've never been sold on this idea it would be packed every...

    this rent bollocks

    How on earth is the NIA difficult to get to, it's less than a mile from New Street, serviced by all the buses into Brum city centre and has loads of parking. I would say it's way ahead of the Rioch in terms of how easy it is to get to.

    Would you travel 45 miles to watch Cov play their home games?

    I'd go as much as I do now, wouldn't make a massive amount of difference to me as I come up from Portsmouth. Surely how people view it would depend on how long it was for. If it was a case of playing the rest of this season while someone closer was made up to standard then surely people wouldn't...

    JPT Game On Sky

    I bloody hate the JPT! I've arranged to be in Cov on the Tuesday and Wednesday that week assuming the game would be one of those days and they pick Thursday and if we get to the final I'll be in New York.

    stadium rent deal

    But hopefully your landlord doesn't rent your house out to other people while you're living in it! CCFC use the pitch no more than 30 days a year, there's nothing stopping ACL making use of it the rest of the time, as they did with the Olympics, rugby etc, so why should CCFC be the only ones...

    A Reminder to ACL...

    If there's another team wanting to play at the Ricoh why not move them in and ground share? The fact that hasn't happened would seem to indicate there's noone waiting in the wings to leap in and fill the void. I mentioned in another thread (can't remember which one or I'd be replying in that!)...
