    Anyone now thinking of jacking the whole thing in?

    Possibly the way I feel, youngest son has an ST also but just doesn't want to go, no atmosphere as well as fairly poor football

    How popular will wasps be?

    My point exactly no particular club loyalty but will make a day of it with quite heavy drinking. But I can see why fellow Cov fans may be getting annoyed at other Cov fans bigging up WASPS its just observations won't change our predicament

    How popular will wasps be?

    Torch is angry, I'm angry also, but my anger is reserved mostly for SISU for not being able to do the deal that WASPS seem to have done, I'm angry at CCC also but WASPS are coming, we need to live with it and move on.

    How popular will wasps be?

    WASPS won't need big crowds to fund their club, they will have a football club helping to fund them, a local prestige business Jaguar Land Rover, they pulled off a great commercial deal, something that was beyond our current owners, I am a ST holder but don't know the name of our sponsors, get...

    How popular will wasps be?

    Wouldn't class myself as a council leading type but have spoken to brother in law, my son's boss, an Ospreys fan who said they would go but don't think they would be regulars but Torch carry on the crusade but WASPS has happened and we (CCFC not CCC) are in a creek with no paddle no matter much...

    How popular will wasps be?

    Rugby fans are totally different to football fans in terms of club loyalty. Whilst Sains & Tigers fans will have support from predominantly their local area, many people I know will go to watch the rugby without any affection for either of the teams playing just want to see high quality rugby.

    How long are you willing to give pressley

    Sacking managers, listened to the Scunthorpe chairman on Sky sports can be harsh but soccer is harsh, first game was in 77 under Gordon Milne, don't think he was sacked not quite sure what happened to Dave Sexton but here's my opinion on all the sackings since. Bobby Gould 84 - justified was...

    How long are you willing to give pressley

    Micky adams & Boothroyd are seen by many Cov fans as old had playing poor quality football. However the more direct approach does have a benefit in that the manager is concentrating on the result first and foremost, he sets a team up to win, talk of style and football philosophy is secondary...

    How long are you willing to give pressley

    End of the season - no point changing mid -season as new manager will still have the same players to work with.

    Bob Ainsworth's view

    My reading of that is both CCC & Higgs were desperate to get rid of it, feared an injunction from SISU did it at haste, saved themselves a lot of hassle destroyed our future in the process.

    Rico h Arena Move Will Break Partnerships

    Grendel relying on the actions of the FL to legitimise Northants move is bordering on the desperate. SISU weren't forced out the chose to go with the intention of distressing ACL & embarrassing the council and nothing will ever disprove that to me. Why the short notice return, if the WASPS...

    Rico h Arena Move Will Break Partnerships

    Nick need to explain what valid reason they had - if its a point of principle I'm sorry that don't count, that decision is one of the most idiotic ever and may have ruined our club beyond repair.

    Cash Flow Positive

    Its l;ike a war / thriller film when it goes "too" quiet, have SISU a cunning plan or have they been caught out that they have yet to formulate a reasonable response

    Bristol City bringing a big(ish) following down next Saturday

    That's why I didn't go not because it was in Northampton, travel to Northampton to work every day, didn't go because there was no justification to it and I believed that it was done to distress ACL and now we all know that was the true motive, Northants Sky Blues was a financial disaster and...

    Not going to the Ricoh...

    OK we're in trouble, big trouble Elvis & Waggot have acquired a very poor squad this summer, tactics aside not convinced by a lot of the new players Tudgay especially others such as O'Brien flatter to deceive lookk good in spells but fail to deliver, Reeda looks a huge gamble Shaun Miller a...

    Cash Flow Positive

    I'm not surprised that they are cash flow positive, and probably explains what SISU's tactics were for the foreseeable future, no more "investment" (doubt it was ever near the £50m quoted) - just keep us ticking along for years in the lower leagues hoping to get the Ricoh, the council leaders...

    Not going to the Ricoh...

    London's property prices make it a unique situation, to date only Arsenal and Millwall have moved stadiums, Wimbledon sold theirs and haven't been able to move back since. Chelsea & Spurs have stadiums which are far too small for them with very rich backers but still haven't moved as there is a...

    Stadium Forum - outline minutes

    I thought the point of this group was to discuss a future stadium not criticize the current stadium that they want to leave.

    Getting angrier and angrier

    OK rephrase we had the option of gaining control of 50% of the Ricoh, that could have lead to full control but SISU chose their tactics and look where they are now
