Better than TF's previous quote on a past decision - "wrong in law and wrong on fact" - when the decision went against SISU. Obviously several high ranking legal people seem to think otherwise. We should welcome the decision as it brings clarity to the dispute. Nothing wrong with welcoming...

No, quite right. He is hardly going to say keep fighting the dastardly council is he? Who would say more than "enough is enough" - apart from maybe SISU? Whether you are convinced that the council acted wrongly or not, the people who know the law and who have the facts, have ruled strongly...

Joy wanted unencumbered freehold and Mutton agreed with you that there should be a provision that the stadium could not be sold. Joy said if she didn't get what she wanted she would tie CCC up in litigation. Joy has done what she said she would and you and Mutton have been ignored.

I would have thought Joy would have most to gain by admitting defeat. The future of her asset would be better served by not following up a JR involving past and present landlords. She needs a relationship with the Council and the citizens of Coventry and Wasps. The rot has stopped on the pitch...

Not having living areas planned in was always a complaint. Nowadays there are students living in the centre, but it should be more diverse. Reducing shop-units rather than having empty units and replacing them with housing and parks may be the future. ( or - dreaming - a multi-purpose stadium...

Agrre wholeheartedly about the Arcade. Nottingham city centre is also much better than Cov. The arcade won a design prize at the time ( if my memory serves me right ). But now it is completely outdated and due either for a complete rethink or demolition. There used to be the Thistle and the...

Here is nearly Denmark. Prefer Hamburg to Hannover ( and like Berlin a lot ). We're on the coast ( Fijord ), great when the sun shines - but Kiel is more known for sailing - lots of wind.

I only had a quick look in. Was looking for the brewery....found it :-) Bought bottles and barrels to sell at the Kiel Week in Germany in the summer ( Kiel being the twin city of Coventry ). Sampled the products of course. Some good beers.

Football season is over for us. At least we have something to follow til August. Plus we learn lots of new things about the law, hedge funds, investment etc., so we are pretty well educated football fans.

Absolutely.

'The Stadium would never have been built without some form of council cooperation. SISU smashed any goodwill against the wall and we are where we are. No doubt we now go to Europe. The last time we were in Europe we got hammered by Bayern Munich....

I think he means the League Cup Semi-final. We waited 20 Minutes then were escorted out. The police who were escorting us vanished all at once. He was right, it was mayhem - coaches smashed etc.. Definitely coordinated.

What is " back as finance chief "? Was he that at sometime before? Or is he back, as finance chief - as opposed to " leader "? How old is he? Will Steve West report to him? I would have thought it would be a good time for him to start taking a back seat. Has he experience in finance ( apart from...

Stupid comment. The more well followed sports clubs the better for CET. I would have thought that a successful CCFC would get more readers/ clicks than Wasps anyway. Maybe you see more in Wasps than I do...

tbf Leicester didn't have SISU and they became PL champions......

A good place to build up from. Decent manager - despite some criticism. Off the field - at least stable. Yes, I know we don't own the stadium and that there is a long way to go, but as with on the field, it is not getting worse. After years of crap, 8th place and aiming for break-even can be...

Obviously not. Manhattan had it sussed and walked. SISU thought they had it sussed and we know the rest.

I am an employer in Germany and my staff are not allowed to work more than 8 hours a day on a regular basis and not more than 48 hours a week in total. If I admitted to employing people for 18 Hours a day ( including for another employer ), I would be in real trouble and be fined heavily. Is it...

I think the Queen does a great job and Charles will have a hard act to follow. Looking at some presidents and presidential candidates ( e.g. Trump, Palin, Clinton etc) I think we should stick with our System - what you see is what you get. Could drop the Defender of the Faith bit and the House...

A win is a win. Against a higher ranking team even better. Let's hope we have gained confidence and - maybe - end the season on a good note. No point knocking anyone at the moment.
