    Didn't one of them have a crash last year? I'm sure I remember seeing one had hit a barrier sonewhere!

    Motofest

    I did the full two days pretty much. First time I've been able to make it. Lots to see and do, only bit I didn't get round to was the drifting in the small arena because it always seemed full, and being a shortarse would have wanted to be near the front. Saw some from the green bank across the...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    It's hard to get the full picture until Police can filter and confirm what actually happened. But, whatever happened, nobody should go to a concert and feel their life is in danger. It's an absolutely awful thing, but sadly it seems an inescapable consequence of the state of the world at the...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    I may well have read wrong, just thought I'd seen an update from police confirming it.

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    Actually this has hit home a bit. 24 hours ago I was at the Maiden gig in Birmingham. Me and my mate went. He took a work bag in, and nobody on security stopped him to search it. It was given a very weak fondle, but at no point did anyone ask him to open it. That caught my attention quite a lot...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    Also reports of a second blast at Manchester Victoria station. Think I saw this as a confirmed update on twitter that it was in the station foyer.

    What are you currently listening to?

    Not listened to Wishbone Ash for a while, but Argus was a very good album I should probably listen to more often.

    Things that annoy you

    It's not something that annoyed me, but that certainly annoyed a lot of others. I once decided to record a message for my voicemail in box. Couldn't think of anything witty to say at the time, so I just recorded myself saying "Hello" as if I was actually answering the phone. My Nan used to get...

    ZOLA GOES.

    One of the most bizarre sagas in this football season, this. Sacking Rowett considering where they were in the table was an absolute scandal. It made absolutely no sense whatsoever, and look at where it's got them. They were 7th when Rowett was deposed. You reap what you sow, I guess.

    Relegation

    Personally, I think it might have been more painful if we'd taken it right to the end and failed. If it hadn't been so expected, that really would have stung. As it is it's been a foregone conclusion for so long it doesn't really hurt as much as it could have. I guess it's something I've been...

    Match Thread Coventry v Charlton Match Thread - Friday 14th Apr

    Time was always against us. It was a massive ask to keep prolonging the inevitable. One thing that must be said, though, is it's remarkable in itself that we managed to put it off this long considering where we were. We could, probably should, have been down weeks ago. All we had left was to go...

    How different our league season might have been had Robins come in earlier? What a day.

    Sometimes Only An Instrumental Will Do

    There's a song by Steve Vai called "Whispering a Prayer". I've always found it a very powerful song to listen to. It's something I'd like to experience being there when it's played live one day.

    Can We Stay Up?

    Sadly I think not. We're just too far behind. But the least we can do is go down kicking and screaming. Fighting for every point along the way.

    Match Thread Coventry v Bristol R Match Thread - Saturday 25th Mar

    Blimey, 2 wins in a row! I only wish Robins had come in when Slade did. I reckon we may well have been a lot closer, and had more of a chance of staying up. We seem to have a bit of fight, a bit of passion. We didn't have that earlier in the season.

    Your most embarrassing moment at a football match?

    In our last game against Brighton, I remember they scored a goal and Steve Staunton was to blame with some absolutely crap defending. It was so crap I got really irate. I didn't mean to say it, it just slipped out. At the top of my voice I yelled out "STAUNTON YOU IRISH GIT!!" The guy sitting...

    Your most embarrassing moment at a football match?

    I have 2. The first happened in my first ever game. It was against Southampton in '94. I don't know why, but I got the idea you had to cheer every time the ball went in the goal. Great when we scored. Not so great when Southampton scored...(ironically I ended up living down that way for a couple...
