    Championship thread 25/26!

    From memory Leicester got decent crowds last time they were in League 1.... certainly better than we managed. But can see them struggling to repeat that after falling so quickly.

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Yes i don't understand the "weak championship" theory. Yes there haven't been any teams absolutely run away with it (in the fashion of Leeds and Burnley last year) But we made the playoffs last year in 67/69pts i can't remember, and thats already not enough this year with two games to go...

    The Stadium

    I've been to more European games than English in the last 5-10 years. Never once had beer thrown over me (and i generally go in the utlra's ends where you may expect that kind of rowdiness) I did see the Livorno ultras launching their empty glasses (plastic) out over the barriers and on to the...

    The Howgills are beautiful, and so quiet in comparison to much of the Lake District. The terrain isn't too bad if you're on the main paths... some of the fell races, the quickest routes just veer straight off the side of the mountains, they are tough both uphill and downhill. As for the...

    Running

    Yeah. To be honest its fairly tame as fell-races go. The inter-counties are used as the Trial race for the GB team for the World/European champs in Slovenia, and the course is designed to mimic that course in Slovenia. Its undoubtedly tough work, but its still way too flat with too much good...

    Our first grass session of the summer last night, and we were greeted by warm and sunny weather. A tough one... 8 x 1 minute (2 minute rests) 8 x 250mtr hills (jog back down) 8 x 1 minute (2 minute rests) A tough session, thats quite a lot of volume (approx 24 minutes work) but in short reps...

    Leicester deducted fifteen points

    Good to be humble. Less than a decade ago they were winning the league while we were in the 3rd division. Who knows what may or may not happen over the course of the next decade. No matter what we think of Leicester or the "rivalry", you'd think fans of CCFC might care to remember where we've...

    Talk sport Strachan interview

    Presided over my favourite era as a fan. So i'm biased, but i thought he was great. Was sad that it ended badly. Absolutely brilliant as a player/player-manager

    Calum O’Hare

    What a load of un-informed bollocks. If he'd had a few shit games then you (and many others) would be demanding he is sold and replaced.... yet you expect "respect" from a player with little connection to the club, who has a career spanning perhaps 15 years to earn an income for life.

    South Stand home end?

    When the Ricoh first opened, most of the West End lot congregated in the upper part of the Telegraph (north?) stand. However there was a concerted effort from club/security/police to get everyone to sit..... unfortunately due to the size of the stand, there were a lot of "normal" fans mixed in...

    Running

    Its a rock-hard track. Its designed for sprinters and wheelchair racing. So although it is "quick" it is not particularly forgiving on the legs for us endurance runners. I occasionally go across to Nuneaton and pay a few quid to do a session there.... their track is much kinder on the legs.

    It depends on the times and days. In theory, unless you are a University student, or a Godiva member, you are supposed to go through the track reception and pay..... but i suspect it isn't particularly well enforced. However tuesday/thursday evening between about 5 - 8:30 are exclusively...

    Solid session tonight with the group, in the Warwick Uni grounds. 5 x 1km, 3 minute rests 3:19 3:18 3:17 3:15 3:14 Best session of the year so far. If i could figure out why i can't quite translate it into a quick 5km time, i'd be pretty happy. 10.5 miles and 3 miles AM
