Funny that, Cov for a long time has been Man Utd/Liverpool/Arsenal territory. Was even the case at school when we were in the Prem.

Not so much now of course

Tbh it was nice and refreshing in my youth that most of my school mates supported local sides

I would much rather take stick of a Villa or Blue nose than a Man Utd fan who has only ever been to Old Trafford on a Stadium Tour

At school in the 90s and 00s it was unusual to support Cov, most supported the ‘big’ teams. Then in the late teens as we went down the divisions the kids I taught switched towards Cov. Don’t know why getting worse prompted the switch but it was good to see.

Yeah, been Tamworth pretty much all my life other than when I was at uni

It is mostly Villa territory, they are harmless enough but annoying when they are winning a few

Most of my friendship circle are actually Blues, it is good natured with them but I can't stand the wider fanbase, especially the ones they have attracted recently

Wrong side of Birmingham for many Wolves or WBA fans - Did notice a few Wolves tops sprinkled about in the Nuno years but they have gone into hiding now

I mean this in the nicest way as i still have some mates from Tamworth and had a couple of girlfriends from there back in the day too, but there are some people from there, honestly, i'd never met anything quite like them before. Don't know what the PC term is... special

You took them up the Snow Dome didn’t you? Dirty dog

For years I thought Tamworth snowdome was just a term used to describe their heads

Oh I hate Blues and Villa more than the 'big' clubs

But I can tolerate getting stick from a Villa season ticket holder who travels the country watching them - I laugh it off then

I can't abide a Man United fan who has never been to a game taking the piss when we get beat though, I really bite

Right up the Snow Dome pal. Very slippery.

Snow Hill train is much easier than the Metro mate, I will be doing the same

You do realise that after the Snow Hill station stop on the metro, the metro changes to the main line and uses the same line as London/NorthWest - Midland line to the Hawthorns.

The train takes about 10 mins less than the tram and they are much more spacious - was crammed in like sardines last time I went on the tram up to the Hawthorns

Same starting XI. KKh in for Bidwell on the bench, BTA for Markelo.

never confident playing WBA, especially at the Hawthorns, but if ever there was a time for us to buck the trend it's now.
