    Match Thread Coventry City vs QPR

    As i said, it was in no way a criticism of the team, and indeed probably a poor choice of phrase... but the fact that QPR were bigger, stronger, etc, is the point i was making. It is a point i have seen made on here over many years... that we have been "bullied" by teams, or other teams have...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs QPR

    I think we have carried on in a similar way to last season. Last year (and i mean absolutely no disrespect to CCFC) we did sometimes seem to be boys vs men.... but we were so much technically better than the teams we played against, that our slip-ups weren't punished, and as we all know, we...

    PSG

    They were incredibly lucky last night. Another sent off, then scored in about the 94th minute to beat Metz (who really had ample chance to win it themselves in the last 5-10mins).

    Match Thread Coventry City vs QPR

    I am usually far from a doom-monger, but feel a loss here. In which case we really need to stick to our principles and playing style, and not fall into a panic.

    PSG

    That doesn't make it right. It's still blatant cheating. Rivaldo was a cheat. C.Ronaldo is a cheat. That's why (in my opinion) none of them would go down in my book as the greatest ever players. (although C.Ronaldo would make my all-time 11).

    PSG

    He's a cheat and that tarnishes everything for me, regardless of his talent (which as you say is amazing).

    Twitter

    The overreaction on here is pretty cringeworthy... But that doesn't alter the fact that you're clearly a tosser for thinking an unrelated and unfortunate injury entitles you to some kind of apology from the board, and marks you out as "right" ...

    Christiano Ronaldo

    No doubting his ability, but for me will always be tarnished by the constant diving.

    England v Denmark

    I'm not saying that Southgate is a genius. I'm just saying that (as usual) we massively overrate the ability of our players on the world stage.

    England v Denmark

    We constantly slate the managers... Capello, Eriksson etc, were the very best available at the time. Did they suddenly become "shit" when they took the England job? Or do we keep get fooled into believing the media hype that we have the best young players in the world. We were fortunate in...

    Djokovic Disqualified

    Rightly disqualified, it's the rules... What seems to be pretty poor is the media witch-hunt towards him... he lost his rag, launched the ball, and it was an accident, i'm sure he regrets it... Yet the media seem happy to turn a blind eye to high-profile drug cheats in athletics and cycling...

    Surprise Football Shirts

    Not got any city shirts. Got a few foreign ones though... Greece... Olympiacos and FC Platanias both from early 2010's Turkey... Besiktas limited edition memorial shirt to their old stadium. Italy.... Inter and Bologna (gorgeous) both from around 2016/7 Used to have rare Boca Juniors and...

    Running

    Raced on the track at Pingles this afternoon in the Masters (over 35's) meeting. 3000m... 10:32, which was an improvement of 16secs on last year's time, and doubly pleasing as my recent training times suggested that i'd be doing well to get under 11mins. Four of us pulled out a big gap in...

    Messi leaving Barca

    I'd certainly say Baresi was all-time greatest defender, along with Beckenbauer... Can't really compare positions... Obviously Messi/Ronaldo will be seen as bigger greats due to the position they play in, but the likes of Baresi were just as good in their position. Whilst Messi would...

    Messi leaving Barca

    I understand the point people make about Ronaldo doing it in three major leagues... but i don't necessarily agree with it... Do we denigrate the likes of Baresi and Maldini for being one-club men? No chance...

    World Rugby bans trans females from the women's game

    I don't pretend to know the moral or scientific ins and outs of this... and frankly i don't really care... but i think the only reasonable way to look at this, is that if you decide to change sex then unfortunately elite sport is no longer going to be open to you as a career choice.
