    Palmer Suspension

    Of course changes should be made Wingy and across society in general. As others have already mentioned, almost kicking someone's head off is overlooked while a passionate response to a winning goal virtually at the end of a game which doesn't harm anyone or alter the outcome, isn't. Many...

    Palmer Suspension

    He got caught up in the heat of the moment and I think that most people understand and even endorse Kasey's reaction, but he's a professional and really should have known better regardless of all the shit he's had to go through lately. I fully understand Otis's argument, but the rules are the...

    Help with buying tickets for QPR

    Good afternoon all. Five of us are coming over from Spain for the QPR last home game of the season but I'm having a bit of difficulty buying tickets. I've never bought them online before and the ccfc website currently only gives the option to buy for someone with purchase history which I don't...

    Bit of Swedish

    Any excuse to watch the execution of that goal again eleven times will do for me.

    Impressed with this.

    The City based theme would be a great way to get the ball rolling and would be an incentive to those who would otherwise probably think twice about assisting because making that initial effort is probably the biggest hurdle for most to overcome.

    Impressed with this.

    Sounds like a great idea and it seems to have happened fortuitously. Let's hope that others will take the idea on board as loneliness in old age is a contentious subject to breach given that men, especially, would rather not talk about it, (the same applies to depression), as they are issues...

    Insomnia

    I've suffered with it for a long time and yes, it's a real bastard. One of the major problems is the mental side of it, as in going to bed already worrying that maybe you're not going sleep and if that's the case the chances are you will find it difficult to do so. Try taking a hot bath and...

    Spotted!

    Like the 500 euro note in Spain, known as a "Bin Laden" because very few people have ever seen one.

    Best Guitar Solo

    Personal favourites are "Superwoman" from Stevie Wonder's "Music of my mind" album "Angela" (Theme from Taxi) Bob James "Waiting in vain" Bob Marley. Incidentally none are played by the actual artists themselves.

    Dirty Leeds Ratings

    Reminds me of the joke about the dyslexic, agnostic insomniac who was awake all night wondering if there really is a Dog.

    Those were the days. Straight to the Memorial Park from Wigan Casino, a couple of pints in the Jules Verne afterwards, Sunday lunch at home and then fall into a deep sleep almost equivalent to a coma and then back down the pub Sunday night. In bed by eleven these days...

    Pop stars that look like they shouldn't be pop stars and seem more suited to another profession

    Looks a bit like the "before" photo in a shampoo commercial

    Match Thread Coventry City - West Bromwich Albion Match Thread - Monday 30th Oct

    I believe a Hamer understudy should have been brought in twelve months ago with an eye to the future. Not providing cover for one of the most influential and integral members of a team is very short sighted.

    I agree to a point, but to get in a good corner with whip and pace is altogether something else. I'm surprised that van Ewijk isn't taking any after that goal from the free kick a few weeks ago. (In reply to Warwickshire Lad's post).

    Beckham

    I was at that game with my son (2000), we flew over for his tenth birthday and I distinctly remember Beckham's cross while running at full pelt for Andy Cole to score. He was outstanding that day.

    Rugby World Cup 2023

    I was football mad but ended up going to a school in Coventry which only played rugby or hockey. I had this preconceived idea that I would hate the game but ended up absolutely loving it. At about fifteen I used to play for the school on Saturdays and local Sunday league football and when I left...
