    Villa Rivalry

    It's also weird when you consider that most of them will be long-term supporters, and that the club they are supporting now is the same as the one that caught their imagination in the first place; a medium-sized provincial club that generally bounces between the top two divisions. I get they...

    Villa Rivalry

    Also first time I went there, the stadium announcer had to tell their end to stop lobbing coins. No doubt their fans will have had similar experiences from our knuckledraggers, but the malice has always seemed more from their side to me.

    Villa Rivalry

    That was the one I mean. I never looked forward to the fixture after that. Always looked forward to Villa.

    Villa Rivalry

    I started supporting late 80s; first time I saw us play them was about 1997. I had no idea there was supposed to be a rivalry (I found out after I left the ground and some of their fans were being particularly twatty).

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Apart from anything, why are supporters fixated with who is a bigger club than whom? The Leicester lot were doing it on their board, and it happens everywhere. But if you support a club like Cardiff or Leicester (or Coventry) you're hardly doing so because of their mighty stature in the game...

    Wright clearly cares. He cares about his career and being successful. He's also a player who operates more with stealth and movement rather than physicality, which causes some to unfairly label him lazy. He also seems to withdraw within himself when not confident. That doesn't mean he...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Millwall FC Match Thread - Tuesday 20th Jan

    So you wind up a racist by chucking deeply racist slurs at them? Incredible. And even the post you originally reacted to was clearly aimed at Millwall's 'we're the naughty kid, no-one likes us, we don't care' image rather than an insinuation you're all racist.

    And earlier in the game when their defender debagged Bobby Thomas.

    Or Killer. Though I do remember him trying to be clever against some tiny Norwich bloke who had to go in goal after their keeper got sent off, and dribbling it past the post.

    If FIFA have any bollocks there have to be repercussions for that.

    Yeah, that's probably fair. It's unprecedented, though. Never seen anything like it.

    You say 'allows', but if a team behaves like that, what can you do? Senegal are going to be in big trouble after this. Some sort of ban, surely. Doesn't matter how aggrieved you feel, you can't behave like that.

    They'll get an enormous ban.
