    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It's time for all women to impersonate famous statues. I was going to suggest Lady Godiva but that may attract the wrong kind of Male attention!!

    Match Day Experience

    I have one of the old rattles given to me about 50 years ago by someone. It is very heavy, wooden, hand painted sky blue with REES and GIBSON painted on in black letters, therefore late 60s. I toyed with the idea of taking it to a Legends day once but suspected it might be confiscated by stewards.

    Nick - every three days a woman is killed by a man. I can't think of any man being killed by a woman offhand and yet you're spaffing about women drooling over Chippendales or dirty hen night chatter.

    Things that annoy you

    Culture wars being whipped up by the tabloids is beyond tedious. Don't people get tired of being enraged by grifters?

    Maybe so but football programmes are not brochures they are magazines.

    Lots of people. Sales of real books remain very high. Magazines and newspapers still sell millions. Most people is a sweeping statement and is not everyone

    I'm 5ft 1in, weigh 9 stone and am retired. I don't think self defence skills would protect me very much. Though it may help me take out the old geezer who lets his dog foul outside my gate, so might be worth a go.

    I demand the right to pee standing up against a tree or fence when I'm out for a walk

    No she hasn't. She also tweeted that people shouldn't walk home alone at night which is nonsense when many people have no choice

    Is there anyone who wants an e-programme? Just seems like a gimmick to me.

    I went to Tile Hill wood and was 'going out with' the caretaker's son. He was 16, I was 15. The other girls behaved as if I had hit the jackpot and he was Brad Pitt. Happy days!

    You did the right thing. It should not be socially acceptable to harass another person in public- Male or female. I know this is dangerous for an individual but we collectively should call it out.

    Programme sellers at fixed points inside the ground so you don't have to use a bloodhound to find one.

    Male violence the common denominator here perhaps? A tiny minority kill but Male violence appears endemic. Should we just shrug and say 'boys will be boys' or work for change? Nobody has all the answers but wanting to find solutions has to be the starting point not denial or whataboutery. I know...

    If you could have one new thing at the Ricoh

    A 'yellow box' keep clear area at the entrances and exits for female toilets with a large 'keep clear' sign as many people like to gather and block these for some reason.

    Not at all. Women notice when men are thoughtful and considerate. It's about common decency and empathy. Giving a disabled person a bit extra space, allowing a pushchair user time to navigate a doorway, holding a door open, please and thankyou, keeping your distance in a queue. Some people lack...

    Piers Morgan leaves GMB

    The problem is not grifters like Morgan it's that people like shit stirrers instead of wisdom, nuance and expertise. All so depressing.

    Todays games

    Both Rotherham and Wednesday are shockingly bad. Robins should show this game on a loop and tell our players it would be a disgrace to finish below either
