    Harry Kane

    People are willing to take out loans from Wonga. Is it worth it? People are willing to buy goods from Brighthouse. Is it worth it? Each to their own and all that I guess. Still, as long as people have "informed choice" I'll try not to decry it.

    Harry Kane

    I've been waiting for the bubble to burst for the last 10 years or so but this grotesque monster just keeps growing. It's got to happen one day and It'll be a joyous day when it does, even if a load of premiership clubs go bust in the process. Why the *uck do the masses keep subscribing to...

    If you have any feelings towards Coventry City football club

    Sorry Pete but I've got some socks to pair tonight.

    What was the WASPS crowd today

    How refreshing to read to read an honest impartial viewpoint free from all the emotion driven garbage written on this forum.

    Meanwhile...back at the Butts

    Disappointing not to win with us being 5 points up with 90 seconds to go but thankful of a share of the spoils after Richmond’s late try 5 minutes after the normal 40 and a relatively simple conversion missed. That last 5 minutes of pressure from Richmond was self-inflicted after we had the...

    Meanwhile...back at the Butts

    I'll be at Richmond tomorrow for my first away match and really looking forward to it. The train down, a few beers in the Triple Crown and another win for Cov to cap off another great day out.

    That is how to look after fans

    Were you on the ground level concourse of either North, East or West stands because smoking is permitted in those areas?

    Meanwhile...back at the Butts

    Don't knock the facilities Steve, they're perfectly adequate for everyone's needs. At least you can come into the warm at half time and watch a bit of TV instead of freezing your knackers off at the Ricoh.

    Meanwhile...back at the Butts

    Why not give it a go today Otis? It's only 15 nicker and what you'll see is 100% commitment and passion from 15 players representing Coventry. From a sporting perspective, it's made me feel proud of the city once more. You'll also get treated like a civilised adult and you'll be able to enjoy a...

    Read reasons behind rejection of Sisu's application to appeal

    You're joking aren't you? They spend more time in the bar.

    Meanwhile...back at the Butts

    I’ve not missed a home game now since being captivated by the Ealing game. I really look forward to it and the last time I felt like that was during the Gordon Milne era with Fergie and Wallace banging goals in for fun. I’ve finished with football now, had enough of it generally and can’t see...

    Football v Rugby Union

    The issue I have Nick is body search, bag search and not being able to bring in your own bottle of water for example. It's standard practice at football stadiums. If only stewards were given some sort of discretionary powers over mature gentlefolk.

    Football v Rugby Union

    Yes you're quite right in everything you say Nick. The problem I have is not particularly with the Police but stewards who have no capacity to think or make decisions. They have a fixed remit and treat everyone the same as opposed to taking every person or situation on their merits. At my age, I...

    Football v Rugby Union

    It’s because a small minority of idiots have spoilt it for the majority. The Police and particularly overzealous stewards now treat everyone as a potential thug or criminal. This has pissed me off for years and one reason why I now prefer to watch rugby where you get treated like adults. If...

    Simple yet unlikely solution

    You're wasting your time explaining that. Most people lost the ability to think for themselves a long time ago. It's all done for them now.

    Interview with Alan Dugdale

    Always liked Alan Dugdale, never one to shy away from a tackle. I always thought of him as being our own version of Tommy Smith so it doesn’t come as a surprise to see Tommy as his football idol. I’ll never forget an away game at Birmingham in the late 70’s. I was in the old railway end (home...

    Ricoh Open Day ... This is how to do it.

    They do have choice. For one thing they could choose not to attend much in the same way as most of us didn’t attend Northampton. Seems as though we don’t have any choice in being tenants to Wasps though; need to deal with it but appears many can’t.

    Might be a decent afternoon.

    Another confident performance. They steamrollered Fylde 2nd half. I'm tempted to go to Blackheath next Saturday and forget all this Ricoh shit for good.

    Pressley really has lost the dressing room.

    There is an element of truth in that. If anyone has been on a tour of Anfield then they’ll know that Liverpool’s dressing room is as basic as it gets. It was Bill Shankley’s philosophy that players are there to do a job for the club and not to be pampered in luxury. That philosophy has remained...
