    Now, I wonder what happens to the proposed new stadium? Coventry isn't big enough for two football stadiums.
    Of course it'll fit, you just need a bigger hammer.

    CCFC are being kicked out of the CBS Arena. Something feels a bit underhanded about the situation: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63858805

    CCFC negotiated a very good deal whilst Wasps were distressed. Ashley isn't prepared to honour that deal. He's the owner, his call.

    This highlights the problems of not owning your own stadium. - And CCFC have been all hot air about building a stadium that they would own.

    Coventry's staying until the end of the season. Power games being played by Mike Ashley?

    It'll probably drag on for years yet.

    I'm not a footie fan, but many of my contacts are. One remarked yesterday, "Five years will soon pass!"

    To my mind, this is yet another sticking plaster.

    I'm wondering if they'll last 5 years.
