It's only January 10th, not April Fool's day.

Don't worry, it's just business.

“I’m a season ticket holder with a 1 litre Fiat Punto. Am I expected to throw on a kilt and drive 6 hours to Falkirk for every home game?”

Oh how I laughed at that...

This could potentially be great news for us:

- An empty stadium, with a larger cohort of potential fanbase to engage/recruit
- its in the Coventry area (well cov is now greater Birmingham what's the difference)
- large enough for us to show PL ambitions,
- we're a nomadic club (3 grounds in the last 15 years)
- we can just drop "Coventry" from our name and call ourselves "City" like the insects did.
- cheaper than a new build
- sell it that's move or bust (worked for wasps)
- no one would notice the claret and blue seats as long as we're playing entertaining football
- it would be backed by the Trust, they have no problem in sports clubs moving permanently from their local area.

come on sisu make it happen.

Plus, I'm sure there'll be plenty of "car parking opportunities" for the right entrepreneur.

Liked this one myself....

“If a club has to come North, can it not at least be someone watchable?”

The canteen staff moving 10 yards forward in the Liverpool story is still making me laugh now!

Reminds me the laugh I used to get from the Sunday Sport. This is right up there with WW2 Bomber found on moon.

Why's that funny? They found the Biggles helmet and half opened tin of spam and everything.
