I mean, surely it should be a thing that someone working as a government official isn't allowed to hide their face? If there's one surefire way that you think what you're doing is wrong it's hiding your face.

But if you're leading in a game with a short amount of time to go and the opposition are down to ten men is it the fairest? I'd say it'd be fairer to play the remaining time and the opposition be a player down. Ideally they should have to play the same players, but obviously teams will claim...

You do if it's Iceland.

Yep, I got that quite a bit too.

And you'd would like UK workers to be treated the same as Chinese workers just so it could be produced here would you?

Thought I'd start having a quick look at our xG/xGA 'results' to see how we'd be doing in comparison to reality. A bit surprising in places. Hull D 0 - 0 (0.87 - 0.45) Derby W 3 - 1 (3.26 - 1.48) QPR D 1 - 1 (1.11 - 0.64) Oxford L 1 - 2 (1.12 - 1.65) Norwich W 4 - 0 (4.02 - 0.15) Leicester L 0...

Well it kind of depends. Some of the wages some teams will pay for these young players are ridiculous - they can be earning as much as first teamers at a Championship club. So if they can earn more at a top club than they would do at one lower down (especially given the fickle and uncertain...

The retail and business parks I can sort of understand at the time. We had a number of large industrial sites that lay empty and a real need to increase the number of job opportunities in the city after the closure of a number of large employers, especially in the motor industry. The country...

They were PL and recent PL champions with top class facilities. We were in L1/2 and didn't even have a stadium to play in let alone a decent training ground.

I guess it's to do with making a business case for it. And we have had far too many streets where the street level has no frontages. That part of Corp St for example has a wall for IKEA on one side and a car park on the other. Hardly a great streetscape. Whether of course it'll be a success is...

They often say the problem is that it actually makes their job much harder, because they can't think of anything funnier or more stupid than what has actually been said. Armando Ianucci has said that some of the stuff that happened under Trump, Johnson and Truss was far more ridiculous than...

Is that a tribute band for Simple Minds, with lead singer Juan Kerr.

No, instead you're coming on a football forum to cry about a person 'crying' about it.

One thing I will say I don't like about Friargate are the streetlights. I know they're meant to look modern and interesting but it just looks like someone's crashed into them. If we were going to go bespoke could we not have done a design that was more obviously linked to Coventry?

I agree entirely and the big problem is it's not finished. The new hotel looks so weird and small considering it was supposed to be the showcase route and make the city seem more built up. Until it is it'll be a failure. And I foresee that being with a lot of residential apartments.

Our city centre is really small compared to most cities our size. The problem is nothing is connected together, or provides a decent, worthwhile route to get between them. The biggest problem is the RR, as it cuts off the connection between the surrounding suburbs so no-one just 'wanders' into...

If Biden or Obama had mispronounced two countries would you be calling them great orators? Or embarrassments?

Oh god, I've now got the image of next seasons kit being modelled by the Mad Hatters! 🤮 Though given the poor quality I doubt the shirts would survive an entire photo session on their skin.

Weirdly I just had the same thought about calling them influenzas! After all they love going viral and they wipe out communities.
