    Best place to live in the UK?

    My places are all quite obvious. Places I have looked at that I have really liked and thought I could live there include: Bath, Lincoln, St Ives, Bedford (by the river is lovely), Liverpool and Pimlico in London. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    Maybe a job for the Fisher/Seppala dream team. Do they need a Fargo style initiative in another county tens of miles away?

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    Agree. When you talk to the store owners about stuff, half the time they don't seem to know what is going on.

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    An hour and a half in Urban Coffee eating. Then my niece's son wanted to go on the bouncy castle, so we sat outside and had a coffee and watched him play and then we went round the shops for an hour or so and then we got ice cream from Spangles and just sat chatting for a while. There were 10...

    England v Pakistan

    Doesn't matter. You choose for the game you are playing now, not based in what has gone on before. If Cook did that why doesn't he keep setting targets way past what anyone has ever achieved in terms of run chases? Not going to argue with you. As the reporter from the Guardian said on...

    England v Pakistan

    Think we preserved with Vince due to England doing well overall in the series, but he looked short of international quality to me. Seemed to be a lack of mental strength needed to cut out the range of rash shots.

    England v Pakistan

    We will have to agree to disagree. I watched the opening morning and the ball was clearly swinging and England were playing and missing. Botham identified it and I totally agreed with him. The ball was moving about. Would have suited Anderson, Broad and Woakes. When we did come to bowl the...

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    We went to Fargo today. It was very nice, but unusually quiet. Supposed to be a barbecue and deckchairs and a bouncy castle, but when we got there, there was just the bouncy castle. Stayed there 5 and a half hours though. We're going to do the brewery, but left it too late and it was closed by...

    England v Pakistan

    I agree with Botham. It was the wrong decision to bat first. He called it on the first morning. The ball was swinging and moving about a bit first thing and with Pakistan down after the previous test it would have been a prudent move. Ideal for swing bowling Thursday morning. Could have been a...

    Kwame Thomas

    Only a few minutes, but he looked very gangly and awkward. Didn't seem to be able to control the ball at all, but that can happen though when players first come on though can't it, so probably not too wise to take any heed from that. On for far too little time to judge is the best answer.

    The ones that make me laugh the most are the ones that are like A Fan For Life, or Cov City Forever and then say they are not going up again, or not buying a season ticket, or are NOPM. Which there were more 'CovCity4EverIfItSuits' type names.

    There have been some very good ones, but I think GMK had the best names. Will have to have a think.

    Match Thread Coventry v Bury Match Thread - Tuesday 16th Aug

    Yeah, would guess so, but will be a shame for the lad. Was thinking initially that McCann would come in for the left hand side in place of Haynes, but now of course we have Page. McCann can play at the back too mind, but would be a little surprised if TM put him in the back three.

    Thought Stevenson outshone Ghadzev myself.

    Highlight of the game...

    Spence is raw, but he is full of trickery. If we can harness that we might have a great little player on our hands. I agree on Stevenson. Harries definitely needs to bulk up a little and he didn't have any great big lump of a forward to mark, but he still had a very good game. Was very...

    Funny how you mentioned 'butler' and four minutes later Grendel appears. ;) A little buzzer must have gone off in the pantry.
