    Well the players we have are better than what we saw today. That was truly shocking. Awful. We cannot go through the season creating so few chances in games. It's going to kill us.

    Will be wondering that until I reach my grave. At times Tudgay has a complete reluctance to go forwards. Nearly every movement is sideways or back. Really puzzled as to why Jackson went off and Tudgay was left on.

    Wing back system isn't working because they are pressing us high up the pitch and also no-one is supporting Haynes down the flanks. Swanson is very lightweight too. Add to this that our passing had been woeful and it paints a very depressing picture.

    Wondering why now I rushed back from London like a complete idiot. :-(

    Very impressed with the subs. The way they were running up and down was very good. They ran up and then ran down again.They looked in control and showed good vision and we're always available. Good engines too.

    Swanson in, Haynes in and Tudgay in. I think. Unless my ears are deceiving me.

    None of us believe a new stadium will be built, so it is about time our owners came out and said, yes, we do want to stay at the Ricoh. Then surely we would all come out and fight for our club to remain. What we have now is ACL trying to sell to a total outsider and Sisu saying they are not...

    The Confessions Thread

    When I was 19 and my then girlfriend was 16, we were messing about in the hallway of my house and I had her stripped topless on the floor. I then decided it might be a good idea to tie her up as a joke, so got some string and tied her hands and feet behind her back. She was lying on her back...

    But I would add to that, Sisu to stop saying they are leaving and building their own statement and just simply come out and say they want to stay at the Ricoh. Can they not just say those simple few words? They used to say they wanted to stay at the Ricoh, but for the past 2 years it's all been...

    Wasps takeover bid could be agreed in private

    Well would have thought anyone can put a bid in for anything. They just wouldn't be allowed to know what the undisclosed bid is.

    Because they are in existence to serve the people of Coventry, that's why. I cannot believe for a single second that our own council would screw over both the rugby club and football club of this city to allow a franchise club from miles away come in and destroy the two most historic and...

    Don't think a promise is worth as much as a signed agreement to be honest. You can put caveats and clauses into contracts that ensure any new owner meets the criteria of the agreement and does not breach it. Promises are just words.

    Latest SBT statement

    Well yep, Sisu saying they want to stay here would be a start. If they come out now and say they want to stay at the Ricoh that gives us something to fight for and to lobby CCC and ACL over. If Sisu come out and say 'We want to stay at the Ricoh' then I think an awful lot of fans would swiftly...

    Wasps takeover bid could be agreed in private

    It's what I keep saying, and as the SBT statement quite rightly put, speculation, conjecture, rumour and guesswork at play here.

    Latest SBT statement

    i don't know, Stu. I am not an expert in takeovers, or indeed, caveats. They could surely though make sure any new owner offered a 100 year lease to the football club, so that Coventry City couldn't just be kicked out in the future couldn't they?

    I don't know is the answer. We can all assume it will be bad for City and Cov rugby, but we don't know for certain. My mind keeps coming back to Coventry City Council and what they represent. I honestly cannot see them voting for a deal that pushes Coventry City out into the wilderness...
