You do realise culture goes way beyond a football team don't you? Would you have expected Hull to be stripped of it because the owner wanted to change the name to Hull Tigers? Or if a local theatre shut down?
The city should be stripped of hosting this as the football club has been kicked out...
As fans we should of done more to get this into the press & limelight.
There can be no doubt that the likes of the Botanist ,Cosy Culb ect are a vast improvement , but they don't have many customers as , the Culture of the citizens of Coventry is not to use the city centre , Cathedral Lanes has only swopped places with Sky dome, Mortimer's, Orange house ect, yes a upgrade but to be vibrant you need them all . Quids inn even the Cambell or what ever its called now is no where near as busy as the premier place for all the students in coventry , Take out all the student stuff from the video and where are the places for the citizens of Coventry to go , where's the night clubs or club for the 30/40 year olds to go , only 5 or 6 pubs in the city center with a population of nearly 300000, show live sport and of them, only a couple would you want to take a friend. go to cov train station on a Friday and Saturday night and see how many people are going over to brum for a night out, and now go on a Saturday morning to see how many are going to brum for football , its heart breaking if you have set the bar so low for a night out in your own city, with such a big population

Shutting a theatre down is hardly the same.
How much will 2021 still be impacted. Maybe better to defer by a year
We all need to give a shit.... otherwise this great City will continue its downward spiral... it’s an opportunity.... give it a chance... give it some backing TGPOr longer until people actually give a shit about it
There is no doubt the political climate of the last forty years, has left large swathes of Towns & City’s ‘such as Coventry In a very downbeat and Neglected state, they are no longer needed to serve the purpose for whichOr longer until people actually give a shit about it

they were created.
The requirement for Centers of ‘predominantly working class people‘ to provide the Labour force needed to fuel an economy reliant on industry, manufacturing and mineral resources ‘has passend, but the population remains.
Everyone must surely by now realise, that the ‘powers that be’ aren't remotely interested in addressing this
Situation ‘So therefore it’s down to the local population itself ‘to do all it can to improve its own lot.
Things like this “Capital of Culture” are rare opportunities that should be both encouraged and grasped with
both hands IMHO
Well if you do buy insurance ‘and then something does happen :emoji_thinking: It’s justCov win the FA Cup but don't qualify for Europe due to ban on english clubs.
Cov get relegated but a great big new TV deal for Championship clubs, ITV collapse and we get sod all and increase debt.
Cov in form and pulling ahead to get promoted back to Championship, COVID hits and (might stop us).
Seems like we are just cursed.
Tell you what, the next time we go up or down i'm buying insurance.
To be totally fair, Iceland were doing a big giveaway and offers for the first customers.
I don't think there would be such a queue otherwise.
I had to pay a cheque in the other week - I know you champion the place but christ it’s a dump

Did you go via the Pink Parrot? I didn't know cheques were still a thing.
Well, I love it and I think it's now a city on the up at long last.I had to pay a cheque in the other week - I know you champion the place but christ it’s a dump
Inland revenue for businesses they certainly are - which I’m sure is a tactic in itself and the other problem is out of town banks no longer exist

I don't get it, who's going to go and do a big shop in the city centre? How do you get your trolley back to your car?
Me and my mum used to. Walk back to Hillfields from Sainsburys in town, my mum carrying about 8 bags and me whinging.

Can pay in at post office. Might depend on who you bank with.
Great facility. Taking a cheque to the bank was so Stone Age.Most banks you can pay in on the app these days.

To confirm it was called Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club. Weren't a bad idea if time wasn't against them!Guessing they hope you can't be bothered...
Reminds me of the scam from Lock Stock (I think), refund people with a cheque from a company with the name about arse ticklers and see how many pay it in.
Absolutely - Whenever I've been stuck on a cushion there's never a cube of chalk to hand. VIVA La Whoberley!Coventry over Poole
