    So... This new stadium is taking a while...

    My prediction: SISU win in part but due to rent strike deemed to have forced the action, compensation is minimum and the hedge fund finally give up on the football club in 2016. There will be no new stadium and a fans/local business consortium will be running the club much the same way as it is...

    New pictures of Queen in 1933

    FFS, Elizabeth was a 7 year old little girl, you can point some fingers at the adults but not the kids you morons !

    Mowbray wants five more

    The good thing with Mowbray is that at last we have a manager who is a realist and is singing from the same song sheet as most of the supporters.

    TM's Appeal...

    Chicken and egg Tony my old mucka, at the moment as it stands you are asking folk to commit to watching 23 matches of basically the same team that couldn't score or win many matches last season, especially at home and only escaped relegation on the last day. As others say, more evidence of a...

    Bees talk to Wasps

    I can see Brandon going to upmarket houses to be honest, surely it's a prime site for some expensive homes ? Unless Bees get on board with something/someone though I can see them being consigned to sporting history.

    Greece

    I think the figures you highlight here not only provide an insight into the Greeks poor performance but also highlight the inefficiencies of other European economies. Of course those at the top have most likely got their ill gotten gains into property or into foreign banks and will never really...

    Half way through July

    I'm no football scout, I've no idea without some serious research but there is a big world out there. Are we looking abroard these days, have we got any sort of a network in place ?

    Greece

    Millions of ordinary Greeks have also traditionally been culpable of trying to pay for so many goods and services in cash to avoid taxes, even the likes of visits to the Doctors and dentists. Of course corruption and bankers have played their significant part too but it's no coincidence that the...

    Half way through July

    Surely its a gamble waiting for Prem loanees as they are more likely to take a Championship club over one in League 1. We still have some time of course but I'm beginning to wonder if TM is finding it harder than he thought to bring players in to what has been a car crash of a club for a few...

    In Times of Austerity

    Even by your own percentages there you seem to have covered 66% of it, what about the rest ?

    Greece

    Many of the Greek people also created this !

    Greece

    I'm pretty much with you. Their corrupt and overpaying economy got them into this mess, so I think that the Greeks should revert to their old currency and sort out a method of imminent tax collection to kickstart their nation again. I don't see how borrowing more money to pay off debt ever...

    In Times of Austerity

    HS2 is just a farce and a manufactured brainchild of wealthy bureacrats to line the pockets of their already wealthy friends in industry and to help continue the funnelling of even more money into London.

    In Times of Austerity

    The welfare budget does need to be cut, too many people still abusing it and living a comfortable life for free, Foreign aid budget should be dramatically cut too. I wouldn't necessarily stop funding the monarchy, trim it maybe but generally the tourist dollar they encourage means they help pay...

    Half way through July

    I said a month ago when others were concerned about transfer activity or lack of it that I would defer my angst at least until the middle of next month about player signings and squad strength. So what have we got on board over last year: Vincelot and Ricketts, both players could/should prove...

    In Times of Austerity

    I'm not in favour of any hunting or culling of wild animals to be honest { except perhaps rats and locusts }, humanity is gradually wiping out everything else through its obscene multiplication as it is. Read an interesting Dan Brown book a couple of months ago { Inferno } that strongly features...

    I was made to feel stupid by Coventry City

    I was born in Cov, all my family going back to Grandparents were also from Cov. It is fair to say though I think that if there was a nationwide 'moaning championship trophy' it would indeed go to our very own population. I wonder if the 20,000 or so newly arrived immigrants and 40,000 students...

    Raheem Sterling

    Individually it's no big deal but collectively it stinks. Pretty much the world over though with the 1% all claiming their innocence whilst the 99% are driven to the poverty line. Soldiers of fortune, FFS !

    How many more players do we need?

    Depends on who replaces them of course, but it would be sickening if they made a huge profit after all the upset and then dumped the club without a backwards glance. It was their fault that 'Wasps' were able to sneak round the back door and steal our stadium too.
