    I'll try and find out where this chap got the story from. I have to say it really annoys me when people say "I'm going to Warwick to visit the university", no, you're going to Canley.

    A request

    I read once on another site that the reason it is called Warwick University is that Coventry council thought of universities as elitest and didn't want to put Coventry's name to it. They shouldn't be bitter about one another and should look to complement each other.

    Could be worse......could be an Arsenal fan

    Arsenal's proper support there, not the dickheads who watch them now (who only realised they existed when Fever Pitch came out). It'd be a round of light applause and chants of 'For he's a jolly good fellow' if they won the title at Anfield these days.

    Only 390 tickets allocated for Sheff U game

    I doubt it is anything to do with protests, when I have been to Sheffield for a week night game, they sell tickets block by block. They'll be releasing them in that manner again here.

    Could be worse......could be an Arsenal fan

    They won it again in 89 and 91 though. Always been one of the big 5, they're no better off than than they were when he took over.

    Could be worse......could be an Arsenal fan

    Football began many years ago. Arsenal were a successful team before Wenger turned up, to suggest that he's working wonders is a huge exaggeration.

    New Coventry Council House Why???

    It's the converse issue. The article states that the 2nd Friargate building wasn't going to being built quickly enough for RICS (though they hadn't signed a pre-let on it anyway). In other parts of the country developers will build offices without having a pre-let, they didn't feel confident...

    Exciting but 'mentally weak' players

    Yes, remember that Robins didn't make wholesale changes when he came in really, 2-3 players. The likes of Baker and McSheffrey really upped their game under Robins.

    Wasps billing CCFC for pitch repairs after Wycombe game

    Wasps would only be in breach of contract if they didn't maintain the pitch. There isn't anything to say they're not doing that, all they are doing is trying to vary the contract so CCFC pay more for maintenance (which they're conveniently blaming on the pitch invasion). I view this sort of...

    Could be worse......could be an Arsenal fan

    What's even more embarrassing is how finishing 2nd / 3rd or 4th almost has parity of achievement to finishing 1st. It's a shame that the whole game now considers the merit of anything on economic terms.

    Wasps billing CCFC for pitch repairs after Wycombe game

    This is the last line of the piece: The Ricoh Arena and Mr Gibb declined to comment.

    Wasps billing CCFC for pitch repairs after Wycombe game

    You and italia are a pair of absolute clowns. Les Reid might not be to everybody's taste, but he isn't stupid enough to commit libel, he's named the ACL director in the piece but hasn't named a source from CCFC.

    Exciting but 'mentally weak' players

    Aye, I think it's more about how players respond to setbacks, heads dropping etc. We do lack that captain figure to gee the rest of them up. I know Clarke shouts but I always feel your captain should be a central midfielder.

    What are we going to call The Ricoh now?

    Alan Partridge is doing the intro no doubt
