    A cartoon picture

    Nice nostalgic piece. Reminds me that I stood or sat in all areas of that stadium between 1970 and 2005. The Ricoh move has been disastrous in so many ways. :emoji_disappointed_relieved:

    Things that annoy you

    Bloke in front of me at the Tesco checkout had his many items lined up in single file, including a box of paracetamol so that he filled the entire belt with about 20 items. Consequently I could not start loading my shopping on to the belt for some time. WTF?

    Just watching the FA Cup build up

    Liverpool made 10 changes. No doubt lots of other Prem teams are playing weakened teams. Yet in the tournament designed for lower league teams we are only allowed a few changes so that the Prem teams can play their youngsters against strong opposition. Utter disgrace. No way will I ever watch...

    Here's what we should all do

    I disagree. I didn't get where I am today by not telling little people what to do. 68% of statistics are made up, including CCFC goals, points and honours stats.

    Bristol City set to sign centre back

    I hate the phrase "set to" which plagues football reporting. So, I am set to put the kettle on. Tomorrow I will be set to sign a greetings card and maybe I will be set to pay the milkman. Grrrr Sorry

    Will you be renewing/buying your season ticket next season

    I have a season ticket and have had one for donkey's years, except for the season at Northampton. I have not decided whether to renew next season but the following factors will influence my decision 1) what happens on the field, of course. Relegation, if it comes will not be the crucial factor...

    Why men are seldom depressed......unless a Sky Blue !

    I thought men were more likely to commit suicide? I must be unlucky as I am surrounded by grumpy blokes.

    Religious intolerance

    Marx and Freud thought religion made up and part of elite manipulation of the masses. These became standard tropes of sociology lessons but were debunked over a century ago. Religion, the evidence of anthropology suggests, evolved over thousands of years as answers to human questions and needs...

    Port Vale to be rearranged

    Only 6 Saturday home games all season up to that fixture on 21st January. That's nearly 6 months. We will have played 17 at home in that time. No incentive for fans who live some distance for whom mid week matches are difficult or for the older fans reluctant to brave the dark and cold nights...

    Things that annoy you

    Pedestrians crossing roads is one thing. The people who annoy me are those who wander in car parks and seem oblivious to the fact that the CARS have right of way unless you are on a genuine pathway. Everywhere else is 'road' which you only walk on if there are no cars coming. Today in Solihull I...

    Coventry Telegraph Should parents lie to children about Santa? Expert warns it could be 'damaging'

    What nonsense. Father Christmas is a metaphor for parental love. Therefore he is real.

    Things that annoy you

    On the subject of tight people, I took my elderly parents and my 2 kids to the Tollgate many moons ago during half term and my older brother tagged along. I bought the first round of drinks before the meal. As the meal progressed I enquired if anyone wanted another drink. He declined so I bought...

    Hillary / US Election Thread

    Farage is a smug, self absorbed buffoon. He is a wrecker with no real interest in this country or any other. He is the perfect partner to arselick Trump. He will not be allowed to embarrass U.K. by being anywhere near a role in this, formal or informal. He is a Quisling.

    Hillary / US Election Thread

    If you haven't seen "You've been trumped" I recommend it to see the real nature of this man. Bullied everyone who stood in his way with no regret or morals at all. Apparently the sequel has just been released. The interesting question is whether a man who is monstrous in many ways has a genuine...
