Thread | The CBS (ex-Ricoh) Arena, getting to and from
at 18:00 8 Feb 2025
by Public Transport?
Another new stadium for me on this season’s odyssey. I can see why I have avoided this one before because it looks an absolute ball-ache.
Is it (still?) true that the Coventry Arena station is shut immediately before and after games? If not, given there is only an hourly service, what chance is there of actually getting on one of these trains?
I am more than happy to use buses (pleb that I am) but even this looks tricky.
The CCFC website (un)helpfully states ‘Please note that after the game, crowd control measures will be in place to segregate home and away supporters. This means that away fans will be unable to turn left outside of the stadium towards the Arena Shopping Park.’ Whatever that means?!
Any advice / pointers received with much thanks. I am in no particular hurry because I am staying in the city centre (i.e. not traveling back to London that night.)
Cheers.

Not that I am a fan of VAR
BUT in the VAR era Man U have been mostly sh*t.
Is this perhaps because they no longer get partial decisions like this in their favour? Discuss. |

Did his own fit camp in the summer.
Has cottoned on to the Scott Brown trick of shaving your head to look a bit more scary.
As mentioned above, no surprise he’s actually a really nice guy. Seen better forwards at LR but a lot more worse. I like him. |

5 Live went with Geordie John Murray and Newcastle United legend Chris Waddle.
I know the excellent Murray is Football Correspondent so gets the pick of gigs but surely there should be some editorial oversight on this.
Should have given big John tomorrow’s game where he is more obviously a neutral.
Waddle isn’t even that good as a pundit. What were the BBC thinking? [Post edited 5 Feb 22:35]

Better players than Madsen took at least a season to adjust to English football.
I live in hope but am not holding my breath. |

Well Myke, I am going to have to respectfully disagree and I think you are somewhat misrepresenting me.
I will reiterate the point I made to you earlier in the thread. Jimmy Dunne has agency in this. You keep saying the club should be doing this or not doing that but this matters not a jot in this circumstance.
What contract Jimmy Dunne signs and with whom will be decided by one person, Jimmy himself. |

Well I for one am thrilled to pieces that Jimmy is staying, even if he walks for free in the summer. |

Out of all the scenarios put forward this to me seems the most likely. |

But if he wants to sit tight and make himself a free agent at the end of the season, there is nothing we can do about it. We can’t force him to sign for SU or anyone else now. |

Or perhaps everyone should sit in their allocated seat. It’s not rocket science. |
