    Big Cyrille

    My first ever hero died last night. I had his picture on my wall when I was a kid. He was such a heroic player for Cov. My dad walked me around the pitch and called him over to meet me once when I was about 9, he came over and told the steward it was ok. He signed my autograph book and patted me...

    I was there for a game where everyone chanted "Tina" at Shilton and it was definitely against Derby, I think we won 3-0 with a lob by Gallacher. I never saw him play for Forest. I never knew the story but just remember being confused by the chant as young lad...

    Fair enough, if she was offended that is her right. I would be careful who I use it front of too. I guess with all language we moderate depending on audience. I saw your apology and hit 'like' on it, I then commented that you'd apologised. No harm done.

    I did get over it and said so. He brought it up again. Just respondng to the comment. I've made my point and don't need to debate it further.

    But anyway, I think the word c**t is acceptable. It's insulting and strong but doesn't make light of a massive issue like rape. I know you won't have meant any harm and it's a turn of phrase, I just think that we, as men, should be more respectuful and not normalise these phrases

    I'm not actually personally offended, just pointing out that this phrase isn't really acceptable. Regardless of whether there is another, broader meaning of the word, it has connotations that we all understand. For that reson, in my opinion, it should be used casually on a forum such as this...

    Would this be an all-time low? Home to Forest Green Rovers in the league? I reckon.

    That season and a half for us was absolutely fantastic. He scored so many goals and was great fun to watch. I loved him. When I was 18, 4 years after he left, he used to come into Somerfield where I worked on the cigarette kiosk, he used to buy his fags and always wore his Cov shell suit even 4...

    I feel we'll get there, just need to get things together at half time, Barnet can't be that good!

    I have found a link form Reddit but it's so bad, just stops every 2 seconds, if you have a decent internet speed you might be able to watch it

    Fuck me, watching updates on here is an awful way to follow when it gets tense (although I appreciate the updates). Everyone stopped updating in injury time, presumably too tense. I was refreshing madly. Great result! I think I prefer being a better team in a shit division, this winning feeling...

    They have a reporter at the match who reported the goal earlier so I'm confident we're winning

    It's weird, the BBC site are stuck on 0-0 and the 5Live guy just reported 0-0 and then corrected it to 0-1 to Exeter. It's 1-0 to us, an own goal

    Yes, I see your point, I'm just world-weary when it comes to Cov throwing away leads. A win would do us so much good, I daren't believe it's possible
