    It's not just Rugby though, is it? I played hockey for years and would you talk back to a ref / umpire? No because they'd take you out of the game instantly for backchat towards them. The respect that a hockey player has for an ump is akin to that of a rugby player and their ref. Their is...

    So you think he called Mikel a monkey? Or did you mean to say the latter?

    Kindle Fire

    If they are anywhere near as good as the e-reader Kindle, then they'll be awesome. I'm very tempted.

    New Apple iPad and iMac etc

    I think you'll see that Apple will move all of their equipment away from having optical drives in the near future. They seem to think that it's a legacy component now days and all media will either be downloaded or shared by memory stick. Tempted by the iPad mini to replace my Gen 1 iPad though.

    Recommend a Book

    Stieg Larsson's - Girl With / Who trilogy is very good. Chris Kuzneski is a great author too. Fiction, crime stuff. A little like Dan Brown, but not as religious.

    Apple Macbook or Windows laptop?

    MacBook every time. I'm running a MBP since 2009 and have had no issues ever. The missus still uses a 2006 MacBook and it runs exactly the same as the day I bought it (we've had to replace the battery, but that was after 5 years). Edit - The white MacBook the missus uses was a re-furb from...

    Swindon vs Coventry Matchday Thread

    I wouldn't mind an 89th minute Swindon goal so I win £105 :p PUSB

    Wood wants to score more goals

    All season so far I've backed him as first goalscorer and last. Do you think I did last night when he was at 33/1? Did I feck, I put all my blind faith (read stupid faith) in McSheffrey to score 1st/Last instead at 9/1..... :facepalm:

    Tonights Game

    Do you not know who we are? We're the 28th biggest club in the leagues.... :whistle: Personally, I think if we walk away with a draw then it's a good result for us. I can fully see why you would expect to win though with our respective league positions. 1-1.

    IPhone v Android v Windows phones

    I'm pretty sure that Android will allow you to sync your calendar back to Googlemail as per your current iPhone (I'm an iPhone user too). Not sure how it works with contacts though going from iPhone to another OS. If it were me upgrading, I'd go for a iPhone 5. But that's mainly based on all...

    Giants fan here. Season didn't start too well :facepalm:. Really need to co-incide my next NYC trip for when they are at home (Giants & Jets have always been away when I've been there).

    Joe Murphy Aggressive after Win!

    This has to be a wind up thread?

    Why boo a player?

    Utter rubbish. It happens everywhere in working life, not just in football. The problem lies in if a manager tries to address the issue. Evidently that never happened with Thorn, and so Hussey (who I believe to have the ability to be a decent leftback) has stagnated in his development at...

    Here we go again.... Hussey shows the finger

    He never gave the bird. Had a shocking game. I'm sure he didn't need the fans to boo him (idiots btw) to let him know it as his demeanour showed that he knew he was having a shocker. Great pen. Here's hoping for better on Sunday from all of them.

    Arsenal Ticket info.

    Great advice this. Did the above for the Olympics and Hyde Park gigs. Saves a lot of money. RE: Game date. Arsenal are playing on the Sunday (23rd) so I reckon the game will be played on the Wednesday night.

    20,000 empty seats

    There was never 12K there last night. The Lloyds stand was as sparse as it always is. Telegraph stand was empty compared to last season. Only stand that was near full was the "old" Tescos stand. I reckon Sheffield Utd brought 1.5k max with them, and at best their was 10k there.

    How did the new boys look tonight ?

    Jennings = Our new Clingan. Ball went backwards or sidewards more often than it went forwards. Also, he's more right footed than Deegan was, and I never thought I'd see a person who used one foot more than him. Barton. Needs to learn where and when he can try and play a little trick pass. 15...

    Parking at the Ricoh?

    http://www.coventry.gov.uk/info/473/street_parking-zones/1025/ricoh_arena-residents_parking_schemes Link says where it's anticipated to be over 10k attendance. I'd hazard a guess you'll be safe all season, even if they gave away free tickets :p

    Any Cov fans that have never been to a game ?

    Manure was/is a reference to Duncan Edwards being manure. It was a chant by the Baggies aimed at Man Utd fans to wind them up about Edwards and the other players that were killed in the Munich disaster. It's not a play on Man U or Man Utd.
