    Things that annoy you

    The fact that it rains every bloody Saturday.

    The Presidents Club

    Just because a few women like it, allegedly, doesn't mean that it isn't wrong. Some abused people don't recognise the abuse for what it is, or believe this is a natural state so why fight it, or believe the money is worth it. Sad, but true.

    The Presidents Club

    In addition the #metoo movement should not be dismissed as a bandwagon. Women of my generation, mid 50s, ALL, repeat ALL, will tell you they were groped, or harassed or worse when younger. Try asking them. It is high time that it was out in the open, not to witch hunt but telling the truth as...

    The Presidents Club

    Completely disagree. You are justifying gross behaviour. Those days are over and we all need to get used to it. If you research it you will find some negro slaves colluded with their slave owners and resisted their emancipation. Some women, especially young, good looking, fit women collude with...

    Big Cyrille

    Cyrille was as close to a God as a footballer can get. We all adored him. Words are insufficient. This is the first time a City player has died when I feel like a member of my family has died. Big tribute on Saturday please.

    Cyrille or Dion?

    Ignore the votes of anyone under 38 as they did not witness both players. Anyone that did would love Dion but there is no rival to King Cyrille. Everything about him was class and he was part of the cup winning team.

    Aliens have surveyed Earth - now proven beyond reasonable doubt

    FWIW I always think the, 'there must be life on other planets' argument no more plausible than the, 'there must be a creator who made everything' argument. No conclusive evidence, just conjecture. Why must there be?

    So Proud To Be A Coventry Fan Tonight

    Have to admit I didn't go but thrilled at this fantastic win. And yet, and yet, part of me hates the idea of CCFC as plucky giant killers. And let's not kid ourselves that the media is really interested in us. They are interested in the "story" of a Premier League club and manager brought low...

    Isn't that a school day? Schools here are back on 2nd January.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I don't think it helpful to say one side were misled. We were all misled. Both sides presented weak and fear monger of campaigns. Which is another reason why referendums are a bad idea. We don't get a quality debate, we get more heat than light.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I don't want it to fail and will accept it turned out well if it does. That is a long term aim, anyway. I have always feared the short term disruption and doubt that jam tomorrow will be worth the upheaval. What I doubt we will see from the Brexiteers is any admission that they got it wrong if...

    Oh Jeremy Corbyn

    Evidence? I couldn't disagree more. Corbyn is the very epitome of any definition of a career politician. This 'career politician' is just a lazy smear. The majority could earn much more in other jobs but have chosen a career of public service. I include Tories, who I generally find...

    Crowd today

    I am in block 21 and didn't hear any of that from the corner.

    Oh Jeremy Corbyn

    With the greatest respect I couldn't disagree more. This is nonsensical and certainly does not respect democracy. We vote regularly for good reasons, largely so that we can change direction when we are poorly governed. The idea that you should stick to a decision even when a majority...

    Port Vale - Boxing Day

    This thread is like a throwback to the 60s or an episode of 'Til death us do part' o_O I have a large family and none of them go shopping on Boxing Day or go out to pubs all day. They all have family round or relaxing days. Home games would be fine but nobody would consider an away trip. This...
