    I need to write to Steve Waggott over this......

    16 is a stupid age to reclassify your status as an adult these days. You don't leave school now until you're 18. It's about time the world caught up in general, not just CCFC.

    CCFC Store moving to Arena Park

    Just a thought. Will the club be able to sell matchday parking spaces outside the front of the shop?

Be interesting to know whereabouts the permenant retail outlet will be at the ground, I'm assuming we're taking over one...

    Mowbray is in no rush for signings

    As long as he signs the right players it doesn't really matter when that is. It would be nice if next seasons squad is in place for the start of pre-season training but there isn't a club in the world who will accomplish that.

    And they were. Austin didn't cease to exist with the 1800. The marque appearing much much later than you suggest. Right up to the Maestro and Montego went out of production in fact. The brand name then changed to rover but continued building the classic Austin Mini, albeit with a Rover badge...

    Many of them models were unique to those parts of the world. For instance an Austin 1800 utility was never built in the UK just one, again of the top and my head. Other brands too. For instance the Rover P76 was never made in the UK and was not developed or the back of a UK model either.

    Charles Kennedy RIP

    He was a great MP. Marched against invading Iraq when everyone else had swallowed the dressed up dossier being just one of the things he got right. He had a tough few months, lost his dad in April apparently before losing his seat in May. RIP.

    Austin's were also manufactured in South Africa and Australia of the top of my head. Many models were made under license too literary everywhere by everyone including as you alluded to the Austin 7 being built by then Datsun now Nissan, they were also built by BMW.

    They were the original global brands, Austin especially. You could go to any corner off the globe for decades and find Austin cars, they had factories also in every corner of the globe. What they failed to do is adapt and move forward and eventually got overtaken by the manufacturers who's cars...

    Coventry City start talks with defender Chris Stokes over new deal

    Not sure how I feel about this. I thought he gave a good account of himself last season considering where he came from and the step up he had to make but I can't help but ask myself could we do better? Like others have said he should make a good squad player but should we be aiming higher? I...

    Never. Too much traffic and road works on UK motorways. I get pissed of with constantly adjusting it and find it easier to use a Mk1 right foot.

    Yeah. I'm off down to my local Triumph, Alvis, Austin, Morris, Wolseley, Riley, Humber, Hillman and Sunbeam dealers at the weekend to test drive some of their latest models. Oh, wait... ...on second thoughts I'll just go to the local Rover dealer instead. Oh, wait...

    But if it snarls up three times a year someone's bound to moan it's not eight going by this thread.

    To be fair Price has a seriously big punch... ...and a glass jaw.

    Anthony Joshua

    Fast hands for a heavyweight. Big question is can he take a punch. Not really been tested in that score as a pro so no idea if he has a glass jaw or skin that rips like paper. A great prospect though. Better than Fury I would say.
