It was said how bad it was?
It was also said why they were hopeful to get it sorted by hudds. The equipment, agreement from wasps.
The club couldn't have called all 3 games off, it isn't down to them.
What could have been conveyed, that it isn't the club's decision?
Did the club say they were making a statement yesterday?
A RAG chart would be I assume available from Dave to Pete
Yeah it says in the statement earlier about why the hudds announcement took a while.
People are moaning about communication but seem to have missed what has been said.
I think he has bigger challenges coming up , to repair the damage to the cash flow , with 3 league games postponed and 1 league cup game , this would have made a massive dent , can see the pressure to sell intensifying
Confirmation of it all? Confirmation if it will be done in time to have the hudds game on.What was stopping the club from communicating what they were planning before 5pm today?
I cant.
Other than the likes of Reid Kane Walker/Waghorn
We're playing catch up and will be playing 18 games in 9 weeks.
Literally Saturday Tuesday all the way to November 21st. Will need the quality players
On top of probably by the time we play our first home game being 4/5 points from getting out the bottom 3
And the fact our players are going to be so far away from the levels needed of other clubs that haven't had this clusterfuck of a start to the season
Pretty much. Only ray of light in it is O'Hare will be about for a few more games than otherwise. We aren't relegation fodder but are starting on a handicap.

It's literally been explained why it took so long.
Tried from feb
Discussions since june
Meetings from 10 days ago
Could have done more sackable not for me
This is it
I cant see anyone else coming in for any of our top 3 now.
Hamer once again shown his shit discipline
O'Hare probably wont be fit before the end of the window
Gyok is the only one id worry about but again, whos really going to chuck the 15 million we reportedly want, other than Everton/ Southampton
Offload Reid, Kane and one of Waghorn or Walker and re evaluate budget shit in January surely?
I can see why it took time to confirm everything, but was it too much to ask for the club to communicate what it was working on, and when they were planning to make confirmations? Or were you happy doing guesswork and watching people harass the social media guy for answers?
We might not have a choice , if we have lost virtually a whole month of incomeI cant.

So if they said they planned to last night but then couldn't because of wasps or the EFL hadn't confirmed?
I didn't have to guess, I just took it as trying their hardest to get the game on until told otherwise.
The only problem with getting rid of those players it will bring in no transfer feesThis is it

Sisu are our owners, if they can't afford to support us through adversity then they should sell us.Can’t we shake Overson by his ankles again.
I think I saw something from PSB group (don't know how credible they are) saying they were organising something for wasp 1st home game but think that clashes with the brum away game and was aiming/hoping for 1000 to turn up

I can only go on what I can surmise from public statements and private concessions and I’m often told things for a reasonWhen did the club first raise the issue?
10 days ago is since the first game was called off. What’s the story here?
- The club had no idea of the state of the pitch and weren’t let in until just before the Rotherham game
or
- The club knew along with the rest of the world that the pitch was looking a mess and did nothing to warn fans or the EFL when getting no replies/assurances from Wasps
Because it’ll get jumped on I’ll say again that this is Wasps fault and they should be not just replacing the pitch out of their pocket but also paying significant (in the millions) compensation should we be able to peruse them for such.
But if we’re talking purely a performance review on Boddy over this there’s questions of how you don’t know there’s major issues with one of the main events of your corporate year until the day before?
It wasn't assumed though, it was obvious?You’re more trusting of both sides than me then! I’m surprised anyone knew what to assume.
There was nothing stopping them from a short statement earlier in the week saying “We’re doing work on the pitch, we don’t know if it’ll be ready on time, but we plan to have made a decision by Wednesday at the latest” Instead we were just left to guess.
I know some people are only able to see this issue in binary terms, but it’s not pro-Wasps or anti-Boddy or any of that bollocks to expect better from a company that’s taken loads of your money.
It wasn't assumed though, it was obvious?
Who in Coventry city football club is accountable for the ability to fulfill the clubs fixtures.
Can’t we shake Overson by his ankles again.

Several dozen pages on this thread seem to suggest otherwise but ok
I do find it a bit odd behaviour by Grendel. I wonder if he applied for the CCFC CEO post when Boddy got it ahead of himYeah, Grendel and his hatred for Boddy and blaming him for everything possible is hardly an example.
Fairly sure that's a user on here (not G though).
Yep, was what seemed to be insinuated that would happen and by Boddy's wording it was Wasps "allowing it to be done".
I didn't realise it was £180k though if it's just a repair...
