    Sorry to raise this again / Dale Evans

    Well that's not going to get you far, is it. Every stranger is just an enemy I haven't made yet, that's my motto. :)

    7833toMK.... come on back the lads.

    I absolutely agree that everyone who goes should enjoy the day, Christ knows every city fan here deserves a good day out after the crap we've had to put up with. However the rest of your post makes little sense to me unless you're trying to justify something to yourself that you're not...

    Sorry to raise this again / Dale Evans

    I'm torn here between feeling a bit sorry for the bloke, and being pleased that he's been outed as an obvious liar. He may well have mental health issues, but to me there's a world of difference between living in a fantasy (which I can accept may be a genuine psychological issue), and actively...

    Stand up if you've never watched Wasps

    For some of us who don't profit from the franchise, and don't much care for it either, seeing them lose improves the weekend no end. It's a pity that some people can't see past their own self-interest and feel obliged to keep droning on in support of them.

    Giblet leaving the CET

    Can we loan him out immediately to WM and get Rob Gurney back? :)

    Sorry to raise this again / Dale Evans

    Not unless he was born in the US. Saying that, I'm sure he could get an email knocked up from that other stable genius, confirming that he was born in the White House or something...

    Sorry to raise this again / Dale Evans

    He's going to risk getting himself into a boat load of trouble if he's started faking letters from solicitors. To be honest, and with no disrespect intended to Ms Tinney, her profile suggests that she's only relatively recently qualified. I would have thought that a takeover of this magnitude...

    Up or down

    Personally, I think accusing people of being 'SISU Lovers' because they don't agree with your opinion is kind of abusive, or at the least, moderately offensive. If you don't like taking it then don't dish it out, is my advice. You asked a question and when you didn't get the answer you...

    Up or down

    Anyone who uses the phrase 'SISU lover' with regard to any other CCFC fan, has already lost the argument. It's embarrassing that people still have to resort to this when they're on the defensive.

    Blade in peace

    This, but with punctuation. :) (Sorry ISB, couldn't resist!) Anyway, totally agree, Fleck has always been a class player, and I can't get too upset about away fans trying to wind us up when I hear the songs we sing at their grounds...

    Stand up if you've never watched Wasps

    Hmm, I love it when people tie themselves in knots trying to justify something that they know would outrage them if it happened to a club that they cared about. In case you're confused, I wouldn't go to MK Dons regardless of (and prior to) Wasps being here, and I wouldn't go to Wasps or take a...

    Stand up if you've never watched Wasps

    At least you accept it's a franchise, which is a start... If they'd gone to, say, Hull instead of here I'd still dislike them for it because I hate the idea of franchising teams away from their fan base. Obviously them being here and screwing CCFC over with the help of the council just adds a...

    Death List 2018

    It can kill you? Why didn't anyone warn me. I'd heard it can make you blind, but I thought that I could just do it until I needed glasses... :)

    Match Thread Port Vale - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 26th Dec

    Got to be honest and say that this was the first game I've been to for a while, and maybe that's why I'm not too down from the result. Plenty to work on, but also some positives. The Duck looked excellent when he came on, far more lively than most of the rest of our attacking options, imho...

    Parking at Port Vale

    Thanks very much for the help guys, I'll be on the way shortly... should be a great atmosphere, and fancy we might get something out of this one too. Cheers! :)

    Parking at Port Vale

    Left it late, as usual, but heading up in a bit. Not been there before and just wondered if anyone had any tips for parking near the ground? I don't mind walking a bit, but like I say not really familiar with the set up there. Cheers for any advice, and Merry Christmas everyone! Three points...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    If you traded your bond holdings based on information that wasn't yet publicly available, then that's insider dealing or trading, as I understand it. A criminal offence for sure, but I wouldn't want to accuse anyone of it yet. In truth I'm not sure why Richardson would buy his own bonds in any...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    It's the same issue I think, Nick. It just highlights the difference in reporting standards. The CET basically take Wasps press release at face value, The Observer article takes the time to critically analyse the facts and figures. Of them all, the one that's clearest to me is OSB's...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    There's a pretty complete analysis by Les Reid here: EXCLUSIVE: Wasps ‘breach agreement’ with bondholders over Ricoh Arena value amid £43m debt It's going to take some pulling apart this. Again my gut feel is that it falls somewhere between the Telegraph's "everything is fine" minor rewrite...

    The Cycling Thread

    If you need gradients on your turbo, just stick some bricks under the front wheel. Winsford, two bricks, Meriden Hill, three bricks, Alpe d'Huez ten bricks, and so on. For downhill sections stick 'em under the rear wheel instead, and shove a fan in front of your face at maximum setting. For...
