Have one for me. I need it.

But that is not what we were discussing. I am an extremely proud Coventrian, and will often defend the city against criticism (much of which is unwarranted). I was just responding to the comment that said it is "one of the finest football stadiums in the country". I disagree with that, I...

No, I didn't say it was the truth, I said it was an opinion.

I don't know anyone who likes it; but perhaps that's because I have no mates. It is scruffy, bleak and windswept, the whole area is depressing in the extreme. I hate the King Power (the stadium) but at least they built it next to Filbert Street and you can walk to the town centre, train...

I've been to them all with the exception of Brighton and Rotherham. They are all shit, but just a little less shit than the Ricoh. Why are you so defensive anyway? It's just an opinion about a building, and I said I'd love for us to be playing there more than anything else.

That's a relief, you had me worried for a minute.

All of them.

Yep, glad you agree. Everything a football stadium shouldn't be. But it's home.

The Ricoh is shit, but nothing would give me greater pleasure than rocking up there on boxing day to watch the City.

Thanks for those kind words. I agree, we are a proper football club and I was proud yesterday. Unfortunately there is a small minority on here who go out of their way to bitch about our supporters. Some of the whining on here in the past 12 hours has been embarrassing. Anyhow, good luck for...

I repeat, not ONE incident directly involving an mk dons supporter, so yes you are being a drama queen. Boorish behaviour is a million miles from bullying, and our fans were no more boorish inside or outside the ground than they were at wolves.

Yet another drama queen. Bully boy mentality? I've not heard of a single issue involving an mk dons supporter, not one. "Getting kicked all over Swindon"? You're getting hysterical. It was one flash point, and that much more resembled bullying given the group of our fans they chose to have...

The memory is a bit hazy to be fair. I don't generally buy into the 'country has gone to the dogs' argument though. Nothing much has changed from what I can tell. You can pick up a newspaper from the 80s, 90s and 00s and you'll read the same stories and and the same moans on the letters page...

I started wearing them when they were no longer cool. Story of my life.

Is this the Mail Online? Nobody likes to see that sort of thing, it's ugly and leaves a sour taste; but let's be clear, I remember the 80s and it was far more violent then than it is now (and I'm not just talking about football). The city centre was like a war zone back then.

A little bit of perspective at last.

What are you talking about? What has bullying got to do with any of this? I am referring to the 'gay boy in the pink' chant, which was not offensive in the slightest. Silly and not funny, perhaps, but offensive? Behave yourself. It would only be offensive if the target was gay, or more...

Who was offended? Why are you getting offended on behalf of someone else?

Just high spirits in the heat of the moment. No malice in it. Why do some people try so hard to put a negative spin on everything? Quote from the manager at wetherspoons after the game: "we took 8000 in four hours and couldn't believe how well behaved you all were and how patient you were...

I think there are a lot more than 4 or 5 people who have an issue with how the council have handled the situation over the last 18 months, myself included. That said, I do agree with the OP. Considering all the shit that is going off around her, I think she has handled everything as well as...
