Just done a Google search of Coventry MP's on Twitter and asked them if they've signed and shared.

So far Allan Andrews and Kevin Foster have replied to say they've signed, which is great, but feel would should be hearing more from those with a stage. They're the ones that people who don't follow football will listen too.

Could it be anything to do with losing 1-2 at "home"?

PS When are the DCMS going to respond, I thought they had put something in writing when the signatures hit 10,000?

Oh....I don't know what the mean mate. Was just asking....

Joking aside, genuninely don't mate about that error code. IT specialists will tell you to double check the e-mail address is correct, that you don't have large files attached (which assume you didn't), restart your Outlook or web browser if it's a web based e-mail platform (such as gmail, our hotmail - although I think this is called Outlook now as well).

Try sending an e-mail to another e-mail account as a test...if it's successful, and you know the e-mail address for RH is correct, there's probably an error at that end (mailbox could be full, could be server issues etc).

Not an IT expert by any stretch but try sending an e-mail to someone else...that'll at least eliminate one potential cause!

it says 100K means it could be debated in parliment (bit vague). Maybe 10K means it gets a response from the relevant department?

Have you seen the comments from Sunderland fans on there? Can they not see how they are embarrassing themselves?

It's paying off cos after a very slow couple of days it's picked up again and we've made it to 16k which I think is higher than any home league game since April 2012 although happy to be corrected.

On Sat I'm going to Tranmere but if Nuneaton would agree it would anyone be up for handing out petition leaflets for half an hour at Liberty Way pre kick off?

I thought Nuneaton fans hated Coventry? Possibly the wrong target market. Best concentrate on the away fans.

I put ten up inside Sixfields on Tuesday Michael but they all got taken down by the end of the game. They were there at half-time though when people were milling around on the concourse.

Luton are bringing thousands aren't they. Given what they've been through I'm sure we could get a lot of their fans to sign.

Nice one, Torch. The initial surge was greater than I expected but has ended. Phase 2 is a slower process of getting posters and flyers out so as to raise awareness and keep numbers ticking over. It had come to a virtual halt but things have picked up over the last day or two and I'm sure some people will have signed because of the posters you put up. I'm taking time off from things this week but will start again next week on more of a push with the posters and a couple of ideas for events

I've already made plans Saturday but this is a good idea if anyone's willing / able. As chiefdave said, many Luton fans would be willing.

In fairness to Dave, I took your comment to mean away fans as in Coventry away matches
