    New Year Football Resolutions

    As I stopped making resolutions years ago as I broke them fairly quickly I thought I'd make one football resolution and that is to go to more City away games in the new year. Any more football ones ?

    Would You Still Go ?

    In the pub last night I got talking to two ex City fans who no longer go as they've lost interest. When I said I still go and am going to the Chesterfield match on Sunday they said I must be mad.I also said even if we go down to League Two I'll carry on supporting them at which I thought they...

    Fleetwood's Away Support

    Where were the Fleetwood fans yesterday ? It has to be the lowest away support ever at the Ricoh. I remember Blackburn in the FACup in a replay had a poor following but yesterday was sparse to say the least !

    The Loan System

    Not a great fan of it to be honest but it's all part of the modern game and clubs in our position depend on it. But could any club really get promoted when throughout a season they use the loan system a lot ? I always was led to believe to do well in any division you need a settled side to stand...

    Young City Fans

    As a fan from the sixties to the present day I've been there through all the hooligan times of the 70's/80's and thought it had died down or it's not as bad as back then.Yet I've noticed our younger fans those aged between say 15 to 20 seem well up for some aggro on matchdays especially this...

    Highfield Road in the Winter

    Talking in the pub recently a fellow fan said weren't matches great in the winter at Highfield Road ? Snow covered pitches,floodlights on at night,fans wrapped up,orange ball,and some good games.I know it was bloody freezing on the Spion Kop at times though.The great 5-4 win over Norwich was on...

    Bored with Christmas ?

    With Xmas adverts on the telly in November,cards in shops,decorations and trees up all over the place,,and bloody German markets,I'm pissed off with Christmas already. It seems to start earlier every year and by the time it arrives you've had enough of it.It must mean that our lives are so...

    Collymore/Talksport

    I've only been listening to Talksport for a couple of months as they seem to have all the games on. But Collymore gets on my nerves as he shouts instead of talking and comes over as a know all. in other words a loud mouthed big head !

    George Best

    I was asked recently who's the best player I'd seen playing against the City ? Before I answered he said I bet it was Bestie ? I saw him play us three times and he was very ordinary to be honest in those games even though he was a fantastic footballer.I once read in an article that George...

    What's Needed at Coventry City ?

    After yet another defeat and many fans wanting Pressley out and relegation on the cards if results don't pick up the question is if he did go could a new manager do anything with this squad of players and work with our stupid owners ? That's why I think we're stuck with the Scot if we like it or...

    Kings Lynn

    As Worcester City are a non-league side and so were Sutton United when they knocked us out of the Cup that annoying cliche that is a potential banana skin springs to mind. But even worse is that the first real game I remember watching as a kid with my dad was the one when Kings Lynn beat us in...

    Stuart Pearce

    Another defeat so the return to Forest isn't turning out as expected.Another good footballer in my mind who is seen as a good manager but is he ? And there's Paul Ince who gets jobs but why ? Be a good player in your career and you'll do okay as your name will open doors it seems !

    Do footballers really need a manager ?

    I watched football focus on Saturday and it featured a piece on Watford as they keep sacking their managers at an alarming rate,but they are playing well despite of this and one of their players said: " to be honest we are a close knit group and we know how to play and we aren't bothered about...

    Roy Keane and Paul Lambert

    What an odd couple these two are and hopefully they get Villa relegated. Keane was a great player but a bit weird and with his grey beard looks even stranger ! Bet the Villa fans don't know who to boo first !

    Living in a block of flats

    I used to live in a nice house but due to circumstances now live in a flat.It was okay at first but now it's like living in an asylum with drug dealing,parties,and dogs barking at all hours.You're lucky to get three hours kip on a good night it's that bad.Has anybody on here been through this...

    Unfit Footballers

    Harry Redknapp has let rip on the radio about one of his players being overweight and unfit and just happy to pick up his high wages.About time a manager is honest about his players instead of mollycoddling them. Raheem Sterling was said to be tired bloody hell he's a youngster ...
