    Match Thread Sunderland vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 13th Apr

    Just on the train to Cov (wrong way I know), gonna listen with my Sunland supporting mate. He’s fallen out with his family (all mackems) and they’ve gone to the game without him so in his words “So ya know what, I might genuinely want Sunderland to lose”

    Sympathetic article in The Times sports section today

    "The problem has been dire, intransigent and, seemingly, vindictive ownership, facilitated by the weakness of English football’s authorities and aggravated by a council who have sought to fight fire with fire." This line sums it up for me. Like other articles it's very hard on SISU (for very...

    Sympathetic article in The Times sports section today

    In case anyone can't access it (needs a subscription online) Friday, September 5, 2014. The matrix signs on the M6 warned of a “Major Event”. The tailbacks around the Ricoh Arena confirmed as much. There was elation in the air as Coventry City and their fans made their way back after 503 days...

    Oof hadn't noticed that! Just looked it up and it's Chris Maguire, Dylan McGeouch, Aiden McGeady, Lee Cattermole, Lynden Gooch and Duncan Watmore which should make a huge difference. Fuck it, 4-0 City

    Just can't see us getting anything here I'm afraid. They've only lost twice all season and unbeaten at home, think it'll be 3-1.

    Will Robins walk?

    In terms of trophies and promotions, we're the only club he's won either with. Barnsely was just keeping them up having been bottom when he took over (I won't lie, had to Wikipedia that!). I take your point about how he left them though, didn't realise he'd walked so hopefully Joy put his mind...

    Will Robins walk?

    I reckon he'll stay unless he's offered something better again. As shit as the stadium situation is the owners have backed him for the last couple of seasons, as someone else has said we're the only club he's actually tasted success with and there's never been an issue of unpaid wages etc like...

    Out of contract in the summer

    I know this thread is about our out of contract players but thought it was worth looking at the situation League wide. Anyone on this list people reckon we should go for? The list is filtered for League 1, 23-30 years old. Few interesting names on there like Luke Berry at Luton, would like to...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Bristol Rovers Match Thread - Sunday 7th Apr

    Was out with two mates last night, a Man City fan who was celebrating the semi-final win and a Donny fan enjoying still being in the play-offs. Me and my hangover need a win today. 2-1 City. Baka and Jordy

    Derby County sell stadium

    Derby have taken part in some creative accounting and sold their stadium to a company owned by their owner for £80m after it was independently valued at £41m as an asset, giving them a pre-tax profit of £14.6m... Pride Park then leased back to the club for the "long-term". Derby County: Rams...

    Just seen that Oxford have only won away once all season which would normally make me nervous but fuck it! 2-0 City, 3 wins in a row, play-offs by tea time [emoji41] Bright and Hiwula

    F1 2019 Season Thread

    So it appears Ferrari weren’t sandbagging the previous 2 days. Chuffed for Bottas to get a win in early, he needed that.

    F1 2019 Season Thread

    Talking of tv coverage, anyone watching/watched the new documentary on Netflix btw? I've just finished episode 4 and really enjoying it so far, great look behind the scenes and just the kind of thing needed now Sky has all the races. I know you have to pay for Netflix but most people use someone...

    F1 2019 Season Thread

    I feel like following F1 is a bit like being a Cov fan. I'm always dead excited before the season but it normally ends up being pretty underwhelming on the whole. The complete lack of free-to-air races is insanity. It's exactly what cricket did and eventually realised what a shit idea it was...
