IGMetall ( massive Trade Union )has joined forces with Amnesty Internatiol for the first time in Germany. Cannot see Germany in Qatar - unless there are drastic changes in Qatar. German TV exposing working conditions in Qatar. Blatter and co have stolen international football rights and sold...

What is long overdue is a meaningful statement from FIFA saying that the World Cup will never be held in a country that is involved in aggression against it's neighbours or where de facto slave labour or similar is used to construct hotels and venues for the event. Football is basically a game...

No coincidence. Most of the people they want are all in one place - because of the vote. The Swiss police have also raided FIFA and are investigating "unknown" suspects about 2018 and 2022. They now have the computers, emails and digital files. Blatter must know what is going on - the finger has...

Been there, done that... Stadium bluff is at best Medium term. CCFC aren't going anywhere short term. Even less likely now we have an experienced manager starting to get the club in order. The last thing TM needs is a new stadium discussion. Priority is getting a team together which can fill the...

Who could "demand" how Wasps negotiate? It is more likely that CCFC staying or being given preferential Treatment was in the Ricoh deal. A sticking point with SISU and CCC was the unencumbered freehold, and also SISU's failure to produce a business plan. Wasps will only be interested in rent and...

We won't be going anywhere. We have nowhere to go to. Wasps have done a lot of PR to establish themselves in Cov. Throwing CCFC out would negate that in one hit. There would be uproar - even from the Council. There should be discussions going on now to at least have options for the next 10...

Was Brum Warwickshire? I thought it was Staffs. Can't be sure though. I think Warwickshire sounds nicer, but in the real world, the regional economic power is with Birmingham. Economicaly we would be better off together with Birmingham than Warks - but our pride would certainly be hurt and we...

I think you are right.TM has got his assurances before the season started. We have no points deduction, no transfer embargo and someone who was given a job to do and did it. We know that we have someone capable, knows what has to be done and who wants to do it. I am 100% sure we will make the...

Agree with the sentiment entirely, but not the place - too much religion around. Maybe in the Friargate development - near the station and in a place where most people will go to at some time. Jimmy represents a good time for Coventry. A time of high wages, high employment and of optimism...

No-one has ever produced any figures or details. We have had a touched up plan which was originally for someone else as a suggestion. Has every other club in the country alienated it's fan base, it's home town council and just about everyone it has done business with ( except certain lawyers )...

You were talking about the economics of crowds at the Ricoh. That subject is as emotional as accounting. I can confirm that having a successful team with the name of the City creates awareness - international awareness. Whilst Coventry were in the premiere league and people in Germany asked me...

Does this negativity apply also to CCFC? Surely if CCFC wants to progress they will use the revenues to buy players from clubs outside of Cov and the hotels will be full of NEC visitors anyway. Are you not therefore writing off the benefits of CCFC playing in Coventry? I still think a full Ricoh...

Ever thought of working for a dictator? You have the right mindset. You don't have to agree with his position, but at least come up with a counter point instead of wanting to ban alternative views.

Great news - when the in dries...

Surely it would be dependant on timing? If the FL asked well in advance of the expiry of the current agreement, what the plans are - "put up or shut up" style, and got no serious plans for security of tenure, then maybe they could start on expulsion process which wouldn't put their fixture list...

in my day it was faggot peas and chips....

Hearsall common and patch of ground by the island by the common that was alongside the Standard works near Tile Hill Lane and start of Broad Lane..

Who? Grendel or Glen?

Me too. Was at Kiel today, 2:1, then my Pub, Hamburg 3:2.... Thought this is my day.... Then comes CCFC...

How different it would have been if SISU had been open from the word go and made a big thing about involving the fans - as Wasps have done. What if they had sorted out the rent, or at least have made their position clear at the time? What if they had sorted out the "sloppy" accounts and...
