No they won't. Enjoy willing them to though.

You can't really have a turning point in a season three games in. That's not long enough to have anything to turn from or to.

What a patient, supportive lot.

I'd just echo Macca's post.

I only heard the odd dissenting voice (the same ones I expected to hear unless they moved seats over the summer) with the usual groans any time a ball wasn't passed forward or when it was and didn't hit the target.

I didn't hear any booing at half time, where was it coming from?

The idea that if he doesn't share your lack of faith in him it makes him 'spineless' is of course ridiculous.

I want us to at least set out to win every home game. We're not exactly huge favourites, but there are absolutely no teams we should fear in this division.

A number of turnstiles should be labelled as cash, you shouldn't have a problem.

I think football will be the real winner, and I just hope both sets of teams have a jolly good go and have oodles of fun doing it, what what.

Between that and the Aldridge substitution it was an angry ol' time for the Irish, that.

One rule thing I saw is that in France and (I think) Germany over the weekend, the referees called a temporary halt in proceedings halfway through each half for players to drink water. Not by UEFA mandate, they just all agreed that it's sensible to do in a heatwave. Common sense isn't completely...

I'm going to boo him until my throat is sore, and whenever he chases the ball down shout 'he's behind you'. On the odd occasion he'll be nowhere near the ball, which will lead to 'oh no he isn't' and that should see us through to full-time.

I'm surprised it took them this long, what with removing a shirt after scoring a goal being an offence for years. 16.5 subsection B - goals must NOT be enjoyed, [player] must prevent adrenaline from taking over when celebrating a goal. Also, shave those sideburns

It's not like they're ignoring issues to focus on sock tape instead, it's a rule that's very easy to follow.

There's no need to, as there's no viable reason why it would happen. How many teams have no home fixtures and play as some kind of touring sideshow? We're Coventry City, not the Harlem Globetrotters.

It does make sense in that if you're playing in blue socks, you shouldn't cover them in white tape. To be honest if any player has to be ordered off after about the first week of the season they've only got their own stupidity to blame.

Theoretically, what if we replaced the goalposts with magical lightning bolts that shocked opposing forwards?

A draw would be ok objectively speaking when you consider the opposition, but balls to that. Show me we mean business for once, City. I'm getting almost excited that we've got a proper game, even if it is against a team that's too familiar for all the new faces we get to see this season.

They'd have to spend too long sifting through the background to see if anyone got their willy out as a prank. And then when they did spot it, I'd be banned from going to games.
