    Hypothetical i know -

    I wonder what it would be like if there were no such word as hypothetical.

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    It nearly kicked off in Waitrose the other day when they ran out of the Sunday Telegraph. Several people were jolly miffed.

    I did write near! Winchester, darling... Just shown my wife the link. She is as shocked as I.

    Two dozen artichokes

    Several of my artichokes have now flowered. Let me know if you want some seeds and PM me your address and I'll put 24 or so in the post for you. I assume you'll be wanting 24 Jerusalem artichokes too to avoid antisemitism?

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    It wasn't; I live & work near Southampton and have never seen anything remotely unpleasant. But then I don't go there at night and I am rather naive about such things. Does it really have a bad reputation?

    Match Thread Coventry v Portsmouth Match Thread - Tuesday 9th Aug

    For tactics I think we should run really fast, dodge attempted tackles and score lots of goals. If we follow this strategy I can see us winning by ten or more goals.

    What do you think is the end game ?

    Then we'll see. Cannot see any evidence of it being spent by the club just yet. And if we are breaking even as claimed (is that true?) it's not going in running costs.

    What do you think is the end game ?

    I guess they must be taking some of the sale money - #JM10 for example. I get that - they are now pulling money out rather than investing, but then they are many millions in the hole with the club. I just don't see them walking away from something costing them nowt (now) with the option of an...

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    They should bite your hand off. Once private companies see an opportunity to invest and improve the city it will start a virtuous circle. Let's hope they don't block you.

    What do you think is the end game ?

    So long as we are not losing them further money I think they will be happy to carry on as is, with the outside chance of promotion and starting to recoup their losses.

    What kind of drunk are you?

    Nick's already shared on another thread that he gets in touch with his feminine side when he's had a few (note - this is not true). Glen gets very happy and optimistic and Grendel almost certainly sings "The Red Flag" at 20 decibels and tells everyone what it will be like after the revolution...

    Southampton isn't violent surely?

    First Sunday off in a month

    What kind of drunk are you Nick? Do you get depressed and quiet; is everyone your best mate or do you want a bit of the old fisticuffs?

    Player Ratings

    Just watched the highlights. I think Sordell did well but the problem was Thomas fluffing his lines twice.

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    Cov was badly let down by town planners after the war. The people of Coventry suffered more than most through supporting the war effort with engineering and were rewarded with soulless concrete cuboids. However, growing up in Cov during the 70s I knew no better. It was my city, it was buzzing...

    Things that annoy you

    Actually I don't mind the grammatical and spelling mistakes made by the under-educated so much. What gets my goat is people who try to make themselves sound "posh" by misusing reflexive verbs e.g. "Please send it to myself". And equally using long-winded clichés such as "at this present time"...
