    The official NFL Thread

    Anyone going to Wembley this weekend? I have a 3 match ST thing, this is the game I'm not too bothered about, will be sat in my Redskins jersey but backing the Jags as I don't have much time for Luck/Colts. Early season thoughts, Carolina/Cam were found out this weekend, Denvers defence seems...

    Slovakian Police = disgrace

    What you have to remember and what England "fans" don't seem to get is that you are not in England anymore and action that would provoke a response from a PC over here will provoke a completely different response from a PC in a different country, cultures and standards are different and just...

    Slovakian Police = disgrace

    England fans who travel away have a massive chip on their shoulder, its never our fault, its because were English.

    Slovakian Police = disgrace

    Always sceptical of a post that begins with "No trouble" but then goes on to detail trouble in their next post.

    6 days till the season begins, looking at my Pre-season divisional bets 4/9 AFC East - Patriots - Should be 2-2 when Brady comes back from his suspension, I think the ban will make he and Belichick more zoned in than ever this year 13/8 AFC North - Bengals - Toss up with Steelers 5/2 AFC South -...

    I've been reading about a program on Netflix, "Last Chance U", has been touted as one of the best sporting documentaries ever made!

    Match Thread Coventry v West Ham Match Thread - Tuesday 30th Aug

    And take tickets away from a supporter of the L1/2 club who actually wants to go watch their team at Wembley? If I finally got to see city at Wembley even against a PLU23 side, I wouldn't want to be sat next to a bloke in a Fleetwood shirt and another in Northampton shirt.

    World Cup tickets - Russia 2018

    They soon come down though, I went to el Classico last year and the prices were through the roof two weeks before, the day before I managed to buy front row seats off viagogo for what it would cost me to go to an Arsenal match.

    Match Thread Coventry v Northampton Match Thread - Saturday 27th Aug

    2-0 win, all good runs come to an end at some point and, in our case, it is usually when you take a decent amount of fans to a local rival with all the expectations in the world. Ageyi brace for me

    Aaron Phillips and Aaron Martin

    Harries, Willis, Turnbull, Ricketts and Stokes upon his return if needed as cover are more than enough to form a back 3 capble of competing in this league, and probably better value for money than last seasons CB's Don't see too much difference between DKE and Phillips on the first 4 games and...

    Sports that should not be in the Olympics

    USA Basketball team 2004 that lost to Argentina included 2 previous NBA MVP's in Iverson and Duncan, along with "elite professionals" Marbury, Odom, Stoudermire, LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony. Would you say that Froome shouldn't be allowed to compete in the individual Time Trial because...

    Sports that should not be in the Olympics

    Golf - Would have preferred it not to be a standard 4 round set up. Maybe a long drive competition, a closest to the pin competition, things like that are more fitting of the Olympic way of life.

    Sports that should not be in the Olympics

    Argentina 2004 Russia 1988 Russia 1972 Australia pushed them close in this years competition in the group stages as well. Just because the NBA is by far and a distance the best league in the world doesn't mean the players are all American. The same applies with Baseball being added in 2020.

    Tom Pope....

    He was the perfect warm up to Hanson on Saturday for our back 3, more of the same from him, just a tab quicker and a tad more switched on than Pope was last night I'd expect. I think a seasoned vet in this league in the mould of Hanson/Leon Clarke would score/create hatfulls with jones & Reid...

    I haven't watched any yet, I don't think any have been shown on sky, just the odd highlights/talking points on social media. We have our fantasy draft on Friday evening, I have no idea where to start!

    Blindness

    I set him up with Skyblue Player when he was in QE as he couldn't get a CWR signal on his radio so this would probably be the best option, I suppose it is then the logistics of getting him in and out but I see plenty of disabled city fans at games so I assume there is a lot in place already.

    Blindness

    Thanks for all your suggestions, it has really opened up my eyes to the scope of things available. I think the main issue in my head with doing competitive things such as sport is that as he has lived for 65 years being able to do those things to a good standard, now going to do them without...

    Blindness

    Looks a great read and seems to have good reviews from both people with the disability and those without, I might look to read it first and then if I think he's ready for it get an audiobook!
