Ok, it was nothing to do with the water in the tunnel. It was just stewards being knobs for no apparent reason just to make you walk another 50 yards. Bastards. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I left after the players had been round in front of block 16, is that ok? When I got to the underpass the left side was flooded, the right side wasn’t. Some muppets were hauling themselves up onto the steps using the hand rail to avoid the water at the bottom. There were no stewards in sight...

After the game the left hand side of the second tunnel and the bottom of the steps were under six inches of water. I didn’t see any stewards there but common sense made the ramp a better option. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And won the league there, even if we didn’t know it at the time Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s not an option for the many of us who don’t live in Coventry. Vouchers are fine as a gesture (as long as they are valid for a decent length of time) and are fair to everyone. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fine for those that use the coaches but hardly fair on the majority who don’t. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You still haven’t said what you think is recent. The 3 specific years that I’ve quoted were selected at random as I knew international breaks have been a fixture for at least 15-20 years, it’s clearly even longer than that. Please check any of the other years in between and I’m sure you’ll find...

I don't want to have a debate, but this is nonsense. If 2010 isn't recent to you, how about 2003? Or 1998? Our games were disrupted by international breaks in both of those years and no doubt those years in between, so to say international breaks are only ""recently" the norm" is just plain...

Good for you. Leaving aside the power of the people nonsense, can you share their explanation of why our games were chosen? 3 of them were/are midland derbys so that might have something to do with it or is it deeper and more complicated than that? Agree next season will be better pre-Christmas...

What do you mean by “recently”? A quick check on our fixtures shows that there were international breaks in the Championship at least as far back as autumn 2010 and that has been consistent for PL & Championship since at least that time. It obviously didn’t affect us in Leagues 1 & 2, but this...

Yes, in post #20. Before that he was complaining about the number of night matches. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You might be right. A lot depends on whether Sky are going to show PL & Championship games in parallel or not. They have been generally reluctant to do this until now, but the sheer quantity means they might have to double up. If they don’t double up then Thursday night and Sunday night (18:30?)...

The additional “rearranged for TV” games will likely be within the Friday-Sunday period so hopefully not too bad from a school perspective. I guess there is an outside chance that they might use Thursday nights as part of the “weekend” fixtures. There will be the usual number of scheduled...

You might be right on O’hare, Simms and Kelly but the only way Fadz is coming on is if there are injuries to both Thomas & Kitching… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Correct re the notice given. All pre-January TV games will be announced before the season starts and then the notice period gets shorter as the season progresses. The original announcement is below (note interesting point about greater parity between the clubs): “With the substantial increase...

That goal was well-taken, but one unchallenged header doesn’t make him good in the air. I don’t think I have seen him compete successfully for any aerial challenges all season, nor look interested in doing so. Whatever his strengths may or not be, there’s zero evidence that aerial ability/desire...

Indeed. There will be a maximum 7 Championship games at 3pm Saturday, the other 5 will be live on TV over the weekend. I would expect plenty of Saturday & Sunday lunchtime games and probably Saturday evening games, as well as the Friday night slots. It wouldn’t surprise me if they introduced...

The OP was complaining about the international breaks - that’s what I said happens every season. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It sounds like you think this is unusual - it happens every season Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
