    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    To be fair they agreed the deal in the timeframe ! Just can’t get it through Parliament ! My point though was that MPs from all sides haven’t delivered (and I believe many never intended to) on their manifesto pledges regarding Brexit. At least some have now had the balls to leave their...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    That’s the standard line Pete. My point being Im not sure they are representative of the public. Both main parties campaigned/stood on manestos yet a number of MPs across the house are openly working against what they contained

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Working out well though isn’t it ?! It’s their job to try to find a sensible solution to this mess. Also representing who ? Ps Ive not heard why but Bercow wouldn’t allow a labour amendment suggesting MPs sign off trade agreement/relationship with the EU, which the government would’ve...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Can someone explain to me why labours position is to vote down the withdrawal agreement as they want a customs union, yet one of the options to be negotiated during the transition period could be a customs union ? I’d imagine to ensure the backstop could be exited quickly this is a highly likely...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    My point is they’re at the extreme ends of the argument and don’t want to listen or accept anyone’s point of view from the opposite side of the argument That is why they are the problem not part of the potential solution. O’Brien’s condescending, all voters who voted out are thick or were...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Agreed. He’s an intelligent guy but is at the extreme end (like the hard brexiteers) who don’t listen to anyone’s point of view and just come over as smug and opinionated. People like O’Brien and Farage don’t solve this problem

    Match Thread Peterborough United vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 16th Mar

    Typical city fans though. Not happy unless they can blame someone for something !!! Rather than say how lucky it was with a massive deflection they prefer to dig someone out ! Twats !

    Agreed. That was very much the end result of the preceding months/years ! It was interesting reading Simon Gilberts book recently. I know it had some negative feedback and as with anything you have to take some of it with a pinch of salt, however, it was a good reminder of the sequence of...

    Not quite the whole sequence of events though. From memory - Non-payment of (exorbitant) rent, negotiations, agreed reduction in rent and settlement proposal, reneged agreements to pay, legal action for payment, threat to put club into liquidation (SISU), ACL filed for administration, SISU...

    Spot on Andy. The only way the outcome could have been any different is by arguing about the validity of their security and/or level of debt. It didn't help when the golden share went missing and Rubins couldn't confirm where it resided ! Nick - To be fair, from memory, the council started the...

    Agreed Nick. They missed the boat when they allowed the temp move to sixfields. They should've put some stringent terms around the building of the new stadium, returning to local area (securing a longer term future) and the golden share. Saying that, all this would've lead to is SISU...

    Cwr this morning

    I didn't say I like it, but Wasps have no affinity to the football club and want something in exchange in order to agree a new lease. Its their right to ask and I'm sure they are aware of the risks of taking this stance (negative publicity etc), as did SISU when they kept up the charade of...

    Cwr this morning

    It could never be totally "unconditional". What happens if CCFC (SISU) said they would only be willing to pay £1 in rent....that is obviously undeliverable from a landlords perspective. I'm sure the intention was to ensure we had a home at the Ricoh, however, this has now become a...

    Match Thread Luton Town vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Sunday 24th Feb

    Awful first 20 (sloppy and lethargic), great for the rest of the half though. Shit ref. Definite pen. Proud of that lads as heads couldve dropped after Luton’s opener as they were all over us.

    Jordan Willis - 200

    I was saying to my brother after the game Saturday that I'd make him highest paid player if it kept him here, would be a massive loss. Hoping he gives it one more year (possibly a one year deal so he could leave for free at the end of it if we don't go up) but cant begrudge him a move to a...

    Me too. Thought he gave sterling (who still had a decent game) a tough afternoon. Looked v good. If he’s available end of season I wouldn’t mind us having a look

    I'll say it

    I think they could well end up forming a decent partnership
