    Well done Rich, good to see you... I must admit you caught me on the hop a bit... after you disappeared round the arches, i wondered how you had managed to recognise me!

    Raced in the Stretton Skyline Fell Race last sunday... a 19mile loop of the Skyline surrounding Church Stretton in the Long Mynd in Shropshire.. one of my main target races for the year.... the target being to go sub 3-hrs for the first time ever... Despite coming 8th overall and 1st v40, i...

    Have we got the worst owners in this league?

    So we didn't invest in new players, but kept our best three. It isn't the greatest transfer window of all-time, but its not an unmitigated disaster.

    Have we got the worst owners in this league?

    If people had been offered to keep all of our "big three" and sell Hyam over the transfer window, 95% of City fans would have snapped your hand off. A shit start to the season doesn't alter that fact.

    I've had Hoka before, both road and trail shoes. My personal view is that while yes they are incredibly cushioned, they are not so much more comfortable then say a standard pair of Nike Pegasus. If money is no barrier then it may well be worth giving them a try to see how you get on. If i...

    Track session at Godiva last night. 3 x 500mtrs (98, 97, 97) 1 x mile (5:44) 3 x 500mtrs (99, 98, 97) First set of 500s were about par... very pleased with the mile, and doubly pleased with holding performance on the 2nd set of 500s (albeit a massive struggle to do so). 10.5 miles for the...

    Having done a couple of ultras which start early morning, i can comiserate. When you've been running a few hours already, start feeling the first strains of severe tiredness, look at your watch and its still not even 7am, and realise you've still got 12hrs+ to go....!!!

    Precisely. I know we have a lot of expert groundsmen, project mangers and wedding-planners on here (not to mention master football tacticians, politicians and scientists), but the attempts to throw blame around are just speculation at best.

    CBS issues

    Whenever a statement comes out (regardless of whether it is from Wasps/CCFC/SISU/EFL) saying "parties are in discussion/working on something", with no substance, it is usually condemned as being a "waste of time" and "why don't they just concentrate on sorting things out and tell us when they've...

    CBS issues

    How anyone can call this saga anyone but Wasps fault, as owners and landlords, is beyond me.... Despite the involvement of other relevant parties, SISU will ultimately have to carry the can, as owners, for the state of the club in the past 15/20/however many years... ...and Wasps have to take...

    I'm pretty sure you can. As long as its not at times booked out to Godiva (tuesday and thursday evening), or any other group bookings they might have. There is a timetable/booking thing somewhere on the University Of Warwick website where you can do it online. However you should be able to...

    Managed to recover in time for the English Champs at the weekend.... then promptly had a nightmare as i was badly affected by the heat, having to sit down three times.... i did manage to finish, but well down on where i should be. Last night was Godiva club night and we did 9 x 1 minute reps...

    Running

    Ran in the North Wales Fell champs on sunday (interestingly the race registration was in England, the start/finish in Wales, and i believe the route crossed the border a couple of times) Was a hot day so i started conservatively and was surprised to find myself leading most of the way up the...

    Wasps out

    This was a point i made on the Wasps Downward Spiral thread a couple of months ago... There's rightly a lot of hostility towards Wasps on here, and i expect the vast majority of other City fans, whilst perhaps not quite as bothered about them, would prefer them gone given the choice. But my...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Rotherham United Match Thread - Sunday 7th Aug

    Yeah i think it was 23 or 24k just for the QPR game. Really set the ball rolling on us never getting higher attendances, as we'd have sold out 32k and we destroyed QPR. It was a massive missed opportunity.

    Big crowds at the weekend

    What i was referring to is that we regularly couldn't sell out Highfield Road against even the very top teams back then.... We did a lot, but i can recall many occasions where we couldn't sell out against Liverpool, Leeds, i'm sure at least once against Man Utd. Regardless of whether it was...

    Running

    Yes, easily. If you are "comfortably" running a 10km then you've just got to run more often and for longer.... some longer specific training runs as well. If you're already running regularly then i'd say you can probably turn it round within 3 months.

    Big crowds at the weekend

    I'm afraid i'm of the opinion that our home support is poor in comparison to "similar" clubs (and i am aware that it seems to be slowly improving. How far back do we go with the excuses... the past 20 years, granted have been pretty shocking... but our support was often poor through the...
