    While the sky is blue - The Believers

    Despite knowing in my heart how shit While The Sky Is Blue is, I can't deny it warms my heart when I hear it. I'd love the club to reintroduce it to the pre-match rotation, although they're clearly pitching at the TikTok Generation and it's probably a little lame for that. I think my favourite...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Preston North End FC Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Feb

    Yesterday was fucking great, beginning to end. Nice weather, good atmosphere in the stadium from the start, we had our first chance within 10 seconds and it didn't once feel like we wouldn't get the win even when it was a bit dicey near the end. So hard to pick out any individuals because they...

    How good were the crowd?

    Actually got glared at in block 21 yesterday because I joined in the Bobby Thomas chant after he scored. Game's gone

    We live and die in these towns

    I love imagining how Stuart Court must have felt hearing it belted out at Wembley.

    Spotting fellow Cov fans in the wild

    I've had a few over the years, usually because I'm wearing a Cov top or scarf on holiday. Weirdest one was when the wife and I were in Vegas. We were, and I do not say this lightly, utterly fucked because we'd been on a bar crawl and to a guided tour of the Mob Museum where we got to taste-test...

    That elbow on Allen was utterly sickening and it was genuinely hard to watch Allen in the aftermath just wandering around in a daze

    Sheffield Wednesday pubs?

    Last time my dad and I did Kelham Island Tavern then got the tram and did the Pangolin (craft beer bar) before going to the ground. Sheffield's a great sesh!

    Match Thread Home game atmosphere

    Left at 94 minutes after their sixth or seventh shithouse, time-wasting corner because I was getting the train back for the first time and didn't want to risk missing it. These things happen, and at least a lesson was learned - plenty of time to get to the platform after 1945 kickoffs and the...

    Sheffield Wednesday at it again

    I've been firmly against fans having alcohol at their seats ever since I got hit by a largely full launched pint (who knows how they managed to smuggle it in) after Thomas' goal in the CT Final. I looked back and saw the person who threw it, they clearly thought it was the funniest thing that...

    Sheffield Wednesday at it again

    Absolutely fucking rank

    Road closures

    The two-coach trains are a big part of the problem. I very much do not want to spend 40 minutes after the match standing at the platform gates mixing with the away fans, then when the train's in sight there's a massive push for the platform and people shoving their way to the front.

    Road closures

    I'm afraid I don't know the name of the road but they pick up at the bus stop behind Tesco, and every time I've been on one the traffic hasn't been a problem

    Road closures

    This is a fair point; it comes up repeatedly at the supporters group meetings but we're completely at the mercy of WMT and, if I'm not mistaken, local or possibly national government. These things are never simple and inevitably take loads of time and effort.

    Road closures

    The free shuttle bus is a great initiative and definitely a step in the right direction

    Road closures

    It does sometimes feel like a cosmic joke; I only live a couple of miles from Leamington station so the train would be perfect, but in its current state it's by far the most convenient way to get to and from the stadium but the fact it's so damn small and only runs every hour when it actually...

    Road closures

    This is a deeply frustrating situation but there is never an excuse to assault someone just doing their job, and there's an irony that in doing so they actually made the situation worse. Hope whoever's responsible gets what's coming to them.

    Road closures

    For weeknight games I usually park at CTK in Coundon and get their coach to the CBS and back. After Wednesday night I'm going to be looking at alternatives, which I suppose would be having to leave before the match has finished to get the 2150 train, hang around until the 2250 train or pre-book...

    Match Thread Home game atmosphere

    I'd be inclined to agree that any singing is good singing, but how are we going to make the CBS into a fortress if we're encouraged to sign about how much we miss our previous stadium?

    Match Thread Home game atmosphere

    It's a minor point but I find it utterly bizarre that they play Country Roads, a song which then inspires a chant about how much we want to go back to our old stadium. Just feel it sends out an odd message when they're trying to build atmosphere in the CBS

    BTA was hopelessly outclassed last night and was also repeatedly throwing strops at the other players; a night to forget for him all around
