Coventry council are part of the consortium that run the Ricoh. So the football club are being shafted by their own council.

You'll follow then faithfully
Oh Grimsby Grimsby

Oops, yeah sorry. I just looked on Google maps and that's what it said.

Must have put something in wrong though. Just looked again and 19.1 miles is the shortest it says but quickest route is 22.3 miles.

Me too. Asking Coventry supporters to go to Brum is never going to happen so I reckon we'll soon see them relegated.

They must be regretting selling Highfield Road now
