    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I find it amazing that so many people think you can't change the outcome. It seems madness to me that you have to stick to a decision come what may. It is a strange view of democracy that a vote made on one day can never be reconsidered and reversed. How does that even make sense? Have you...

    Phone in Tonight - Potentially something "big"

    Love this to be true. The thing is football is so crazy these days and owners are a bunch of crooks, chancers or loons, a guy who has acquired his money gambling might be a good bet (see what I did there) :smuggrin:

    Away form

    Some of us have been saying this since pre-season. We need goals. We need one or more goalscorers. Without this we cannot succeed. Cue accusations of negativity or the counter argument that you can go up with a good defence and a low goals tally. I didn't buy it then and I'm not buying it now...

    Match Thread Accrington Stanley - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 14th Oct

    When we just shrug When we just argue who to blame When we call each other names When we accept failure When we say, we're in this league for a reason blah blah blah When we say, we can't play the big club any more It's time to pack it in and choose a glory team instead of this sh't

    When will it no longer be acceptable to lose, who to? We accept failure, like we always do.

    Things that annoy you

    Impossible to see all parents in time available. Blame the management who insist that every parent's concerns must be addressed but only give 5 minutes. I may teach 150 kids in one year group and have 180 minutes available to see them per year. I am given 5 minutes and told to leave 5 minute...

    Match Thread Accrington Stanley - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 14th Oct

    Feels like a loss to me unless our goal-shy strikers can come good. I know Nazon is back but we need to start scoring instead of relying on clean sheets. I would be happy that we have become a boring 1-0, 0-0 team if I thought it would last but at the moment it all looks a flimsy basis for optimism.

    Season Ticket Offer for FGR

    DISCLAIMER...This is not a complaint, merely an observation. I have 3 match packages which works out at £20 each per match, so if a season ticket holder can get me 3 tickets for £15 each I can save £15 overall and use the match packages for full price matches. Not going as it happens but...

    It is now time for our strikers to get goals. No more excuses or near misses.

    Whoes the gay boy in the pink?

    I think 75,000 people signing a massive cock might be quite a sight!

    Yay! Getting there slowly but surely

    I would love to believe that humanity would be better without belief in gods or religions. I am agnostic about this since there is no evidence that human capacity for faith will disappear. Alas this will probably attach itself to ever more harmful ideologies. For all their faults and horrific...

    Things that annoy you

    Airport luggage carousels and the idiots that stand right up to them, or even worse, let their kids do so. If your kid gets hit when I lift my bag off through the scrum that is your fault not mine.

    Rooney Retires from International Football

    An outrage. IMO Players should always be available for their country or be deregistered by FIFA.

    Female Grimsby fans

    Joking aside this is an outrage. A 70 year old woman was one of those insulted in this way. I hope the culprit is sacked and the women take legal advice to seek, at the very least, a full public apology and their entrance money refunded. I would also be inclined to seek damages.

    Coventry City Podcast

    Not bad but too blokey for my taste ... Like a pub discussion. Has a woman ever been on it? Doubt it and that makes it stale for me

    crowd next saturday

    It baffles me that we now start the season in early August. Most people I know take holiday in the first 2 weeks of August. You are easily losing a fair percentage of your fan base. Why not revert to last weekend in August which made much more sense? Get rid of international breaks and have...
