    Wembley goals

    John Salako scored at Wembley in the 1991 Zenith Data Systems Cup Final!

    West End.

    Some people like the pre match pints, some people like the post match pints, some people like the tension that builds on the walk up to the stadium, the singing at away fans along the way, some people like the memories of the place: 50,000 vs Wolves, watching your all time favourite player...

    Jamie Allen

    That's the fella that felt so strongly about Liam Kelly that he felt the need to start a whole thread about Liam Kelly = Bad Performances. Just smile and move on.

    Jamie Allen

    I'm in exile these days. Can't hack the match threads and then I read through this type of thread and end up wishing I hadn't. This OP is the worst of them - doesn't have any opinions of his own, just reads one or two people's half-comments on a player and then regurgitates it fresh like he's...

    An humble apology

    So it's not far too early to make the comparison now? But Tuesday it was. I wasn't debating their respective merits, just laughing at how your opinions change with the wind.

    An humble apology

    You're such a flip flop. 😂😂 On the Ryan Giles thread on Tuesday morning when people were discussing McCallum you were dismissing people's opinions and comparisons: 90 mins of football and 3 days later you've made up your mind and want the world to know the majority will be agreeing with you...

    Player Ratings via QPR

    Shipley couldn't have marked his man any fucking tighter if he tried. He was left 2 vs 1 at the back post though while Dabo and Ostigard both got in each other's way and missed the header

    Match Thread Coventry City vs QPR

    I'm in the minority that thought that was a pen for them. Won the ball but went clumsily through the back of his right leg to win it. Foul first, won the ball after. Completely unnecessary challenge either way - the ball was running away from goal.

    Match Thread Bristol City V Coventry City

    We've all had a lifesaving shit at some point. The one that stands out to me was 1998, in the graveyard of St Michael's church on Walsgrave road. I was almost home from a trip to Italy and something I'd eaten got the better of me; had to get off the bus a couple of stops early such was my...

    Transfer Rumour Ben Sheaf

    He's not smiling in that newspaper picture though. Maybe he should fuck off and play his beach volleyball if that's how happy he is to be at our club.

    The new flag designs...

    Have to say I don't think that is photoshopped. You can see the continuation of the lines on the gym floor under the entire flag. Think he's just made a shit flag with your money. That kind of stuff really cost 1500 quid?!

    Kieren Westwood

    Surely we'd just get an emergency loan in if anything happened to Maroši? Wilson must be on peanuts and it'd be spunking valuable budget for little return to get in a better permanent backup keeper.

    BCD Game Tuesday

    I'd also give Kelly another 45 minutes too.

    Match Thread MK Dons (Away)

    You've never praised him when he has played well though so that's a bit of a disingenuous point. 2 seasons of being scathing about him and then oddly silent last season.

    Council meeting - 18/8

    How would you have approached the meeting? I ask because you come across as annoyed with Pete and Mark for not going into that meeting all guns blazing over stuff that happened years ago now. Do you think that approach would do anything to help get the club back in the city now? If, as you say...

    You can choose home or away commentary from the audio options on Desktop, at least. Took a few seconds to switch though.

    Captain?

    You don't put loanees as captain, rule #84 in the book of managerial no-nos. Kelly if he plays, McFadz if Kelly doesn't. Scrambles and a pile-on if they are both out - need to find out who really wants it.

    Transfer Rumour Ben Sheaf

    We're such a big club again now with a large quality squad, that it's about time the EFL let us put Coventry 'B' into League 2 at the expense of some of the shit in there like Crawley.

    Max does it again!

    For me it's a bit like conkers. Max scored a goal against a 6 times capped England goalkeeper so now he gets those caps and is now a French international striker.

    Have a guess at their value

    As a barometer of the bias we rate are own players with, how much is 23 year old Conor Chaplin worth after his 11 championship goals in a side that stayed up by the skin of their teeth?
