The trilogy? (can't remember if there are two or three) of Danny Baker books are excellent

I keep reading books about unusual travel, reading one currently about somebody travelling from the UK to Singapore by train via the Trans-Mongolian railway by somebody called Matthew Woodward. I downloaded it for free on Kindle Unlimited.

He's a manc, though he played for Yorkshire clubs for a lot of his career.

But do you sport a beard that looks like a 14 year old growing his first one in an attempt to get served at an off license?

Yeah the parent company is covering it but could pull the plug at any moment.

Their wage bill has gone up by £14m in a year, not sure why that is? Wage bill is £34m a year. They earn more in TV rights than CCFC's overall turnover.

Recorded a loss of £37.5m, that's just as a team trying to stay in the second division. Football is completely broken and there is no way back...

You have no idea how much we have paid

No, it's a Chinese / noodle bar now.

Tbf to him he scored in the JPT semi and final, be interesting to see how much he would have progressed if he'd stayed here

Watched 5 or 6 episodes in two sittings, cheers Otis. I think I've got a crush on Bec.

Their fans don't seem to be impressed by his signing (demonstrating that all fans are the same)

He's part of the Historic Coventry Trust (assuming this means Ian Harrabin). I know he's a bit of a bogeyman for some but I think he's done a lot of good work

Caramba it was called when it had the mural

Interesting looking at Far Gosford Developments Ltd on Companies House. They have already lent money from Birmingham City Council (this might be a proxy for the WMCA) and there is a charge over all of the property described here, I don't know how that fits with what CCC are doing.

Yes, the Peacock was where the entrance to the university multi-storey car park is now. It was demolished about 10 years ago.

If it's a success the council benefits as well doesn't it? Much better to have a vibrant city centre than the backwater that area is currently.

They've done this before, anything for a property developer promising the world. I don't actually have a problem with what they're doing here, sounds a sensible way to drive development.

Christ almighty, why are you so angry?
