Just now on 606 on five live phone in a Sunderland Fan complaining about our players celebrating our goals, especially Conor Chaplin. He said they were giving hand gestures etc, and Conor offering their fans out. Hilarious. Sour grapes. Love it !

In the paper today there was an article on The Specials. Horace Panter was talking about their 40th anniversary and their upcoming tour. He also mentioned that he still lives in Coventry, and called it " the European city of low self - esteem." He added that is what keeps his feet on the...

On Football Focus today they featured Jesse Lingard. It showed him doing his goal celebrations, very fancy stuff. It seems players don't just do a " Shearer" anymore. It doesn't bother me how they celebrate a goal, if a Cov player scores he can do what he likes. But can anyone remember an ex...

As we're in the final chapter of the season, it's a lot easier to predict the winners and losers. Here's mine however. Premier League: 1st : Man City. 2nd: Liverpool. Relegated: Burnley,Fulham,Huddersfield. Championship: 1st: Norwich. 2nd: Sheff Utd. Relegated: Reading, Bolton, Ipswich. League...

We've seen some crazy incidents at matches recently. Obviously seeing players assaulted is way out of order. But it got me thinking about how me and my mates act during games.I reckon we are all fairly normal in as much we celebrate goals, and take defeats etc on the chin.But I used to be...

We saw Burge mess up again on Friday night, but he's not the only keeper to blunder this weekend. But at a higher level Pickford had a nightmare at Newcastle, and Heaton of Burnley wasn't exactly solid at Anfield today. But I'm old enough to have seen the likes of the late great Gordon Banks and...

Listening to 606 radio phone in tonight. Main discussion is on Celtic and Brendan Rodgers. He has left the club to go to Leicester leaving many Celtic fans angry, and Chris Sutton said Rodgers is out of order, and reckons Celtic are one of the biggest clubs in the world,and both them and Rangers...

I reckon I've another year on the window round before I call it a day. Then I'll spend my days writing, especially football and finally get a book published. I love the outdoors so plenty of long hikes, and short breaks. Obviously none of us can guarantee good health or what's around the corner...

With time running out for our football club, and we don't know what the outcome will be as to our status next season, as a Coventry City supporter what will your reaction be if it comes to a bad conclusion ? Will you say that's it I've had enough, or will you remain stoic and say I'll still...

I'm going for Eubank. Can see it being a long fight, with Eubank edging it. Could be a classic scrap !

With the return of Alan Partridge to TV it got me thinking who are my favourite comedy characters of all time ? Breaking it down to a top 10 here's mine. 1. Rigsby -- Rising Damp. 2. Del Boy -- Fools and Horses 3. Fletcher __ Porridge 4. Lucille Ball -- I Love Lucy 5. Basil Fawlty -- Fawlty...

There was a phone in on the radio the other day about tattoos. Some for them, some against. As an ex prisoner my past life is never far from me,as whilst inside I got tattoos done on my hands and arms, I did a few on my own, and a cell mate who was a tattooist on the out did the rest. Indian ink...

I won £78.00 yesterday on a bet on England winning the match by a margin of between 36-40 points. Surprised and happy, as it is a big margin to win by. The lady who served me in the bookies paid out and remembered me putting the bet on, she said well done as she thought I'd no chance. I bet once...

Like it or loathe it social media is here to stay and will get even more powerful. But when you read about youngsters committing suicide after viewing nasty stuff on Instagram etc, you do think maybe it's more dangerous than we first thought ? We got by okay long before Twitter and Facebook, so...

As we're getting frustrated at our lack of goals, especially from our so called strikers, it raises the question : " why do they miss so many clear cut chances ? But not just our players but other clubs fans have moaned at their goal scorers fluffing goal opportunities time after time. I was...

Should be a cracker Ireland v England on Saturday. Ireland are awesome these days, but hope England raise their game ? So I'll go to the Gillingham game and go somewhere and watch the rugby. Come on England !

Today and a few months ago a customer of mine who's Nigerian couldn't pay me and she told me to come back. Nothing odd about that but both times she was locked in her house, and through a window said her husband doesn't leave her any money. I said to her " are you okay, as to me it looks...

Anybody still enjoy reading a book, or is it all online now ? I bought 3 yesterday. Crap Teams - a funny book on rubbish teams over the years. Yes we're in it. Another one : 1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die. And one called : Running With The Firm - True story about an undercover copper...

If you're making any resolutions what will they be ? I don't bother these days, just content with my lot, so carry on being grateful is my main one. Not worth saying stopping drinking as that quickly gets broken ! Any suggestions ?

Andros Townsend scored a fantastic goal yesterday, classed as Goal of the season already as it was that good. What wonder goal have you seen that is etched in your memory ? I've seen loads over the years, by Cov players and opposing ones. Ian Gibson v Cardiff was a cracker, he was in the air and...
