No idea who he is or what he has said previously, but I do know the Brazil issue is often misrepresented. Yes, far more harm than good. They are turning the whole thing into a circus. You're not going to win the hearts and minds of the public at large with those antics. While the rest of us...

You can, because it's bollocks. Brazil isn't burning, the comments from Brazilians in that twitter thread say it all, half these people don't have the first clue what they're protesting about. I have a business installing renewable energy systems. In total those systems have produced 1300MWh of...

This is just a rabid cult. Any legitimate environmental concerns are drowned out by these crazies. It's completely dishonest and will make not one jot of difference. A woman waving a broomstick in the air screeching about Brazil burning, I'm not sure if it's tragic or hilarious.

This poor fella was so close to saving the Amazon, so close..

Yeah, was only jesting. To be honest, drinking in the Bridge Inn where most people seemed to be on it, I'd be surprised if everyone in there wasn't contaminated. Although my mate was convinced it was because he is a butcher and had been handling sausages in the morning. He isn't the sharpest...

It is a touch annoying when you get pulled to one side when you've doing nothing wrong though. No big deal, but there were disapproving looks and shakes of the head from people walking past. Felt compelled to tell them I'd only had a few pints of Guinness, but not sure they'd have believed me...

Fair point. But, I don't really see what the point of it was. I was pulled to one side when I went through, a dog detected something on me. I wasn't bothered because nobody is more anti that stuff than me and I had nothing to worry about. My mate was also pulled, and the hardest thing he's...

Must have been at least 150 there yesterday. They'd all travelled together it seemed. Arrived about 11.30 and they were all outside a pub with a big Coventry Legion flag. All ages it seemed, between 20-60. Gave it a wide berth, didn't fancy that, so went to the Bridge Inn. They all ended up...

Yeah, I think that's why we've had so much joy late in games this season. Yesterday, the 3rd goal and sending off just killed it. Think we should keep playing as we are, but we need to be a little more streetwise away from home.

Nothing to explain. I thought this was widely known? Which is more environmentally friendly: paper or plastic? Plastic or paper: Which bag is greener?

I don't agree with the OP really, but it is legitimate to asks questions about the way we are setting up away from home and if it is working when teams press high, which they will invariably do when they're at home. We've played 5 away, not won once and conceded 10 goals. No need to panic of...

I'm against single use plastics as much as anyone, they're a scourge. But, if we all switched tomorrow from plastic to paper packaging, there would be a considerable increase in carbon emissions. Plastic beats paper on virtually every environmental measure. There is nothing wrong with using...

Some premier league bed-wetting on here tonight. I swear some people spend more time watching the crowd than they do the game. Absolutely guarantee that night after we've taken a decent following anywhere they'll be a new 'our fans' thread. I didn't see any trouble today. There were a few...

The average number of home fans last season was over 11K. This during a season when we were poor at home and never in the top 6. You think yesterday we'd have only had 9200 home fans for that fixture? A game that produced our biggest SA turnout and less than we had for any league game last...

You're either on a wind up or need to give your head a shake.

Weird comparison tbf. Sunderland's lowest crowd of the season was the play off semi last season. These games are short notice, from a standing start (no STs), live on TV and midweek. We actually had more home fans for the league game prior to the Notts County game. NB I don't think we'd have...

It added 650 to be precise (based on the fact we'd probably have got 11K for that fixture otherwise, so an extra 15K over 23 games). I think people do over-egg the crowds we'd be getting if we were at the Ricoh, but also we would have got over 14K yesterday. The Mowbray season is probably a...

Highlights get more bizarre by the week. Show a Doncaster effort spooned over the bar, but not the Hiwula sitter or any of Godden's efforts. I know they are meant to be brief, but the editing is all over the shop.

It isn't just a 'line', it is fact. It is different, and this is reflected in the number of people travelling. When Rotherham played in Sheffield, B Rovers in Bath, Brighton in Gillingham and ourselves in N'ton, the circumstances were all different and people either chose to follow or they...

You realise that the 6K who go are not the same 6K every week? I know people who went to the opening game and haven't been back. I was with 2 people last Tuesday going to their first game. I know someone who was at Bristol Rovers and Gillingham but none of the other games. The point is, many...
