Maybe we can persuade London Midland to put on more than a one carriage banger on a match day.

Promotion would make the Ricoh the only viable option. Even SISU can't be stupid enough to move us to Northampton again.

Stay in L2 and I think the Ricoh is still the only realistic option. Nuneaton or the Butts could probably be made up to standard with temporary facilities but I don't think SISU have the capability of pulling something like that together over a few months.

Relegation, heaven forbid, and Nuneaton or the Butts start to become realistic options.

The key thing will be what deal we can get at the Ricoh, certainly don't want anything worse than we have now and ideally something substantially better.

While I love a good Wasps bash, that will be nothing more than a contractor not thinking and leaning them up against there. I doubt the Wasps management instructed them to do it to prove a point.

It isn't the first time though, it could easily be moved but it's still there..

I thought CCFC / Wasps both said it had been moved now after it was reported? If they have said they have gone but they are still there or it's been done again then it's a bit different.

I have a brick there for a family member who has died, I'm struggling to see the outrage even though I love a Wasps moan. If people start pissing up it or purposely being disrespectful it's different but it's a dozy worker who has just leant them up against the wall rather than laying them on the floor from what I can tell.

And when it happened before they said steps had been taken to ensure it never happened again. Is it a huge problem in the grand scheme of things, not really, the maintenance of the bricks and memorial garden is poor in general, but if you're managing the stadium its part of your responsibility to ensure things like this don't happen.

Notice when I went past the remembrance garden at the last game that it was in a pretty poor state as well.

I guess replacing individual bricks isn't easy but surely not too hard to repaint the names on them and have a general clean up.

If it was a genuine possibility that we could get that space up to a 25k seater stadium that we own or part own I have no idea why anybody would be against it.

Because:

- The zebra crossing isn't wide enough.
- There isn't enough car parking.
- The train station platform is too big.
- The seats have too much white colour on them.
- Trump went there once.

Whoa slow down. We're all against trump going there but antifa have been there too and you have to say they've done some bad things.

Saturdays mean nothing to me anymore now Brucie has just passed away, Highfield Road at 3pm, back home for 6pm ready for Brucies Price Is Right.

More proof of life being too short to dwell on the wrongs of fucking SISU and to stick by what you love, the Sky Blues!

All they did was cease an opportunity that was presented to them and are making the best of it.
I appreciate as a CCFC fan I find it hard to acknowledge the fact but it is true.

Simple. We all abhor what SISU did when they moved to Sixfields. Wasps and their owners deserve the same.

Whilst Wasps undoubtedly want CCFC at the Ricoh, I would be amazed if they really want SISU there. The nearer we get to next season, the more pressure mounts on SISU, Wasps are under no pressure as they own the ground, and I doubt they are worried by any protests by our fans. The chance to build any opposition to Wasps has come and gone. In the PR battle Wasps have run rings round SISU, so even in any stand off I expect as many fans will blame SISU as Wasps.
Without the Ricoh what credible options do SISU really have. Last springs fans were confident of a new deal,in a couple of weeks we will be into autumn,before you know it Christmas will be here. The Butts is a non starter,certainly for next season,and in reality long term as well.Leaving the City again, well God knows how the FL will spin that.

Sisu took us to northampton. Now the ricoh rent deal is coming to an end and you are saying anyone worrying about where we might go has no reason to?

Hmmm
