If I were them I'd be looking at stripping out the duplication between BLC and Nuneaton's Pingles. The two sites are close enough to justify this and Nuneaton and Bedworth would get better overall facilities.

Let's hope they employ a better contractor than Coventry did with the railway station. I don't think water leaks at a leisure centre would go down too well. ;)

I really have my doubts about this. I suspect that the money would be better spent at The Pingles centre. The Bedworth centre is pretty small and I have long harboured thoughts about its running costs and the wisdom of two sports centres so close together.
