    GMK Glitch or GMK Gone?

    Pretty darn sure I'm not although I might just be saying that. However, even in jest, I simply couldn't write the Islamaphobic type comments he kept coming up with

    GMK Glitch or GMK Gone?

    Ahh....... Alan ! Just a tad more research and he could have been almost believable. The 'Coach and Horses' at Hartlepool being a top example ! Didn't enjoy his anti Muslim rants though. Might well have been a wind up but it still didn't read particularly pleasantly. Generally, a very funny troll.

    So somebody said GMK was back yet a half arsed trawl by me can't find it, anyone know if it's true and can post a link ?

    Tony Mowbray and Jimmy Hill

    TM has the loans system at his disposal in a way that JH didn't.

    Fester top of the Prem

    Just so many money grabbing assholes all gathered together in one cess pit of an organisation. Warner came over as probably the worst of the lot. The Feds are definitely going to nail him and stick him away for a long time once they can extradite the louse. Still time to take the 2022 WC from...

    Seldom mentioned legends...

    Roy Barry was probably my favourite City player from the 70's and that includes the likes of Tommy Hutch. Just utter quality and, you're so right, was never the same player after his broken leg

    Sky Blues Talk visitor - hi!

    If you decide to come to a Coventry City game, could you bring another 10,000 fellow countrymen with you please ?

    Northampton Town (FA Cup) Match Thread

    Same as when we lost David McGoldrick. We pick up somebody else who, at first glance, seems grossly inferior but works out just fine i.e. Leon clarke. I trust our manager to go ringing round Premier and Championship clubs to see who we can give a half season run out to. You never know, it could...

    Barnsley (Home) Match Thread

    17,435 at Bradford tonight. Did they let the punters in for a quid or something ?

    How much does it cost to rent a train or two?

    The line still exists but hasn't been used for a while. The level crossing with Wheelwright Lane is still there and, presumably, could be used without a great deal of updating. The far end of the branch line spreads out to 6 lines so stashing empty trains on a football/rugby match day wouldn't...

    How much does it cost to rent a train or two?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the government shelved/postponed the Sheffield to Southampton electrification a couple of months ago ? It was put up as a means to shift goods more efficiently rather than to introduce better passenger routes.

    CCFC Store moving to Arena Park

    Quickly getting the impression from reading this thread, that if the company known as SISU had male genitalia, SBT members will be offering it oral sex with the next positive announcement....

    No expense spared then ?

    'Out of interest how many use a normal cruise control feature regularly?' Use it all the while when I'm truck driving. Takes a load of stress out of the equation and works out less fuel used which, as a depot spending £75K a week on fuel, is quite a lot of money. Sorry, but can't give you...

    How old were your kids....

    My son who is now 27, was 6 when I took him to HR. He has never forgiven me for making him a Cov fan.......

    City fans thoughts on cheap season ticket prices!

    Next pay day, I return to the fold of being an ST holder. Getting TM on board was the crucial factor. I'd be amazed and delighted if we were up the top third of the table this coming season but I'm as sure as anything we won't be struggling. Blind faith maybe but it's time to turn this drifting...

    Has GMK gone for good?

    My physique has often been described as porcine but having the handle, Porky, is far wide of the mark.

    Has GMK gone for good?

    I have been told that GMK will be back up and running before the next season begins.

    Boro V Norwich

    I happened to be driving up the A11, towards Norwich, mid-morning and there were just thousands of cars, vans, buses of all sizes heading South to Wembley. Norwich must have been close to being officially empty. Reminded me so much of the M1 in 1987
