Those are some well-paid groundstaff in that case!

These are the most recent wage bills I could find. Seems to suggest either something is wrong with the way Swiss Ramble (who are usually very good) are calculating the numbers, a misunderstanding of the EFL's methodology, or massive cost-cutting on the horizon on a scale that no-one has...

There isn't really a comparison to be made to Jimmy Hill, who was a visionary beyond any manager we've ever had (or many clubs have ever had) But amazing to think that Robins is even in the conversation at this point. I'm sure Harry Storer had a few off-the-field adversities to deal with when...

85% of ST holders didn't ask for a refund! Remarkable. https://www.ccfc.co.uk/news/2020/august/news-sky-blues-thank-the-85-of-season-ticket-holders-who-did-not-request-refunds/

Would be nice if they did! In a world where local journalism has been basically gutted, there isn't much hope for the local rags doing it, and it's not as if national readers are gagging for 1000 words on municipal politics in Coventry. Which is why I was wondering who/what Liddle knows that got...

Why does Rod Liddle have this level of knowledge and insight into our situation? And why did he feel moved to write a lengthy article in The Times about it? (I don't disagree with the article, I'm just genuinely curious as to his motivation here!)

It's not true supposedly. Definitely one of the best modern conspiracy theories out there - couple of links below. Zuckerberg told Congress that FB doesn't listen in on your microphone, and while I certainly don't trust the guy, I also don't believe he's crazy enough to lie under oath...

I'd only consider letting him go if we get an offer we couldn't refuse. For me, I'd want Ryan Alsop, Josh McQuoid and at least one more.

In which case, I'm just glad to know you've got faith in the CET!

You asked once if it was real, the original poster said yes, and that was good enough for you, you were off to the races! Properly enlightened stuff! And then when you realized your mistake you bizarrely tried to claim the same video that had you foaming a few minutes earlier was an obvious...

Why do you say that? A few minutes ago you were literally calling for lynchings, but now it's the press who are stupid for covering something they've completely ignored?

No way on earth that video is real. Seems like whoever made it got what they wanted in terms of reaction though!

They do sometimes, yeah. Still think he knows more about our transfers than me or you though. Find it weird that people complain so much about journalists not covering our club right, and then taking the piss when they go out and do it.

Been to many a game in the US where you can drink throughout. It usually ends with me absolutely hammered and/or covered in beer when there's a goal. Which is one thing when you're in the summer heat of New York, but quite another when it's November in Birmingham. Weirdly enough, there's...

What makes you say that?

This sounded hilarious, so I looked it up. Turns out the gig was several months after they released Monster, and they played several songs off Automatic For The People. The local paper described the set as perfection. Memory is a funny thing.

For what it's worth, we just got this exchange on Twitter

Leaving aside the debate about whether it's really all that great for our transfer policy to hinge on mysterious wealthy third party benefactors, I have to question where these rumours come from. He seems like a nice guy who cares about the club and has donated plenty. That should be enough to...

Looks like Mark Robins to me

If we can consistently get 12k at St Andrew's then it makes a pretty convincing case for moving the club out of Coventry for good.
