    Overrated players

    David Thompson. A few good games but still overrated.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Queens Park Rangers Match Thread - Tuesday 11th Feb

    I love that the majority assume the captain from the last few games, including a 5 game winning run, is going to be dropped. Consider, this is not only a tactical decision but a man-management/squad morale decision. Some players, not just Allen, might be unimpressed. I would tread carefully if I...

    Road closures

    Disabled passenger in my car. Not an option. But loads of people last night thought they could park near the exit, have a drink in the Anecdote or casino then just push into queues of cars that had been waiting since the end of the game. We saw loads walk back to cars once they started to move...

    Road closures

    Stuck in car park A for an hour. Travelled back to Dudley knowing full well by the time we got there the M6/M5 junction would be closed with long diversion. Home as the church clock midnight bells were ringing. If I wasn't retired I wouldn't bother.

    Disappointed the window hasn't SLAMMED shut this year. Must be losing its mojo

    Transfer Rumour Matt Grimes

    There are draws. We used to do replays so that one team could win. Now we don't have the patience for that so we do tie breaks. We could just flip a coin but the drama of penalty shoot outs is box office. The game which preceded the penalties was and will always be ... a draw.

    Transfer Rumour Matt Grimes

    Quite right. We didn't lose the game, we lost the tie. It was decided by a tie breaker. Penalty shoot outs are merely tie breakers in cup competitions. This isn't hard or pedantry it is just a fact.

    I will need to see what facial hair he's sporting before I can give this my approval.

    Southport Stabbing

    When all is said and done and we do the "lessons must be learned" debate we will be left with the real question unanswered ... Are we prepared to institutionalise hundreds of teenage boys and dozens of teenage girls? Because that's where the trail leads. Thousands of children and young people...

    Ruud Van Nistelrooy applies for Coventry Job

    Lester fans are delusional. They still think they should be on the level they were 9 years ago. Compare the atmosphere at Ipswich today. No booing, heckling or walking out. Lester fans deserve nothing

    Lati off?

    Partly true. Let's sell them in the summer instead. Then let's fail to buy suitable replacements.

    Lati off?

    He bought the club at the end of January. He can hardly be given credit for that season, except for new owner bounce.

    Death List 2025

    Wayne Osmond RIP He won't mean a lot to many of you but he was my absolute hero 50 years ago and an outstanding musician. His talent was overlooked by the teenybopper frenzy that accompanied his brother, Donny, everywhere. He wrote, sang, played lead guitar, produced, and was, by all accounts, a...

    Why so many empty seats ?

    Loads of people are ill. Horrible foggy weather for those who are frail etc. Disabled bay was half empty. Loads of people are away.
