This is all rubbish though anyway. Sisu have NO intention of building a stadium and we all know that. I really think though if we ever did move, after what has happened to us, we really need to think about how our move would impinge on that local area and what degree of opposition there would...

If Bedworth United were as a majority against it, then I would probably say no. It would need scrutinising in fine detail. We can't just dismiss clubs because they are a lot smaller than us.

And I'm not. Just saying how far is acceptable and how far isn't?

The Ricoh is in Coventry. Only just, but it's just inside our border isn't it. You drive from the Ricoh and up by Leeks and then it says 'Welcome to Coventry' from the opposite direction.

I didn't know it was that far. In that case, probably no then. Would certainly need to think about that one. I always thought Balsall Common was only 4 or so miles away. It is not an area I know well at all, but as I child I always thought it was an area of Coventry. Would need to investigate...

Hmm...start getting into dodgy territory though don't we. What is okay? 4 miles not 90 miles? 7 miles not 90 miles? 20 miles not 90 miles? When is it too far away and unacceptable? The Ricoh is already right on the edge of Coventry, so I feel I a little unfair to judge it on that criteria. I...

You can't blame me for predictive text, NW! Had three goes at it and it kept changing it Southampton to Southampton. See, just done it again!!!

Just looked and it is 14 miles from Coventry City centre to Southam, so that is a totally ridiculous notion to my eyes.

Yep, agree. As for new owners? I suppose it depends if they are going to try and sue the arse of everyone, council included.

Pay attention! ;) I said I would be happy with just outside the city. Southam is not 'just' outside the city. Where would you be happy with? And what are you feelings on any opposition from locals wherever it may be?

Nope.

Bermuda Park is 2.5 miles from Nuneaton town centre and 9.4 miles from Coventry city centre. Wonder what Nuneaton Town fans would think and if they were opposed would we be opposed too? Or wouldn't it matter because we are bigger than them? ;) If there was a majority opposition to the...

I think the council would be very happy indeed to have two big successful sporting clubs here in the city. It is seemingly just Sisu they have a problem with.

Also, wonder what is going to happen if our Ricoh deal just runs out. Then what? Yeah, okay, ground-share for a while, I get that, but surely the FL will put a timescale of when we need to move back home. We all know Sisu have no intention of building anything, so what then? Would that force...

Yep. Ditto on that. Think it would be very hypocritical of us to move in on someone else's turf after all the hoo hah we have created over Wasps coming in here. We can't do a Wasps and we can't do an MK Dons (like just shipping in our club to Rushton and Diamonds for example). I know Grendel...

I fear you may be right. They just don't look like they are going anywhere though do they. Now this is just putting it out there, but now that Wasps have nabbed the Ricoh and become much higher profile and with their aim to be the best and biggest in Europe, does that not make them a more...

He was very poor though, don't think anyone can argue with that. I remember him scoring early on and I thought we were going to get a gem, but after that he did nowt. Looks sluggish, a lack of pace, a lack of ball control and also forgot his shooting boots.

Football?

My concern too. When you think back to McSheffrey he had a striker's instinct and a calmness in front of goal. Just haven't seen any of that from Thomas yet. Stress the word 'yet' though, cos we can't just write him off just yet. I have yet to see the killer, goal sniffer's instinct from him...

Heather Fisher. When I first saw her I thought 'that's a man,' but fair play to her to go out there with no hair and appear in the Olympics.
