    Messi/Suarez penalty

    A couple of choice examples:- This is why women should stay in the kitchen and keep their mouth's shut or around my cock Forest Echo News (whoever they are): And ladies and gentlemen, this is why we don't hire any females unless we need our dicks sucked or our food cooked...

    Messi/Suarez penalty

    In a slightly tangential move related to this story, has anyone seen the utter misogynistic filth that has been directed at BTSport and 5 Live's Lynsey Hipgrave on Twitter, simply for deeming to make comment on this penalty? There are some f**king cavemen in this world.

    Messi/Suarez penalty

    ... and therefore should not have stood, as Suarez can be seen inside the D before the initial kick!!!!

    Messi/Suarez penalty

    Yes in a shoot-out, the ball is dead the moment it is kicked, hence no rebounds off keeper or post are allowed.

    Messi/Suarez penalty

    As other threads have been talking about interpretation of the Laws of the game, I'll chuck in that this should have been re-taken because Suarez was inside the D when Messi kicked the ball. A TV ref review of all angles should have disallowed that!! Sorry!

    That might be the event I am referring to in my earlier post.

    Deliberate handball

    I think the introduction of goal-line technology (which was held up for years by Blatter et al for slowing the game down too much) has shown that these things can be of great benefit to the game. I wouldn't want to see it become like NFL, which sometimes gets stopped on every insignificant play...

    Deliberate handball

    I disagree with the age-old argument that having a review system like in rugby union would cause too much interruption to the game. As an example, there was a match a few weeks back (was it Sheff U v Manure in the Cup?) where the ball had clearly gone over the goal line before being crossed for...

    Deliberate handball

    "Left arm spreading like a wing"? Have you ever watched an athlete/sportsperson in motion? What about it being simply the way he usually holds his arms when he runs, or makes challenges, or (perish the thought) tries to keep his balance? You simply cannot insist that everyone runs around the...

    Best Of Luck Madders?

    We were lucky to have had him at all, such is the competition to get talented youngsters into academies these days. There is a danger that Norwich will get relegated and will not have the resource to bring him on as his potential deserves ... and to bring us a few bob more. It would be...

    Official January transfer window for CCFC

    Do we assume it is the Trialist in the U21 side being watched by TM?

    TM Press Conference Today...question about Burton...

    Point taken, Tony, but could the same not be said for the injuries and suspensions (and curious subbings) we are now suffering?

    Play Offs

    I seem to recall Burge saving quite a few last season. Maybe a 119th minute sub????

    Play Offs

    When you started going on about Joe Pigott having signed on loan in 2015, I thought I didn't think he had come here. It was only then that I looked at who the sender was! We don't get many strangers round these parts, but you're welcome nonetheless!

    TM Press Conference Today...question about Burton...

    When we were at Sixfields under Pressley, many of those who went commented that it was the most attractive attacking free-flowing football they had seen from a City team in all the time they had supported them. Fleck, Thomas, Moussa, Baker, Wilson and Clarke. We ripped teams to shreds for the...

    Mowbray Out

    Admittedly, the thing Pressley was criticized for more than anything was not having an effective Plan B. The number of times you see the term "defensive mix-up" when we concede is a real worry for me. That needs shoring up during this transfer window. Ramage didn't look to be able to pull it all...

    The Cov fan

    Preferred the slightly later version with Sarah Greene (ex of Blue Peter and Saturday Superstore) doing the action, with the tagline "You've got to magic the beans". Kep me going through my difficult teenage years!!!

    Hunt playing today

    U21 update:- 30 - CCFC the better side but struggling in the final third. Hunt's energy down the right providing the biggest threat. But 1-0 down

    Ricoh Arena train station update

    I don't know the local geography up there, but I understand that Bermuda Park is near a large housing development, so it is possible that many of the residents will use the station to get into Cov or Nuneaton. It probably WON'T get used as a "parkway" because the car park is so poorly designed...
