    Match Thread Barnsley vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 30th Mar

    Must win if we want to keep the play off flame burning. Though personally I think Saturday and the Friday night game against Burton have finished off our play hopes though until is mathematically impossible I'll hold on to a bit of hope.

    think you could say the same about Sterling. They are only young lads playing in a physical, competitive league, sometimes people forget that.

    that's not exactly thwarting it is it? He could have got the measure through and someone should.

    If we move from the Ricoh would the company that runs the casino get a reduced rent due to the reduction in foot fall? Same with the hotel and Compass although am I right to say they are tied to wasps in some way?

    Willis passed the ball better than anyone else in our side second half which tells you everything you need to know about the performance.

    Feelings Towards Ricoh Arena Now

    soul isn't just about atmosphere, there was so much more to HR, yes there's a certain amount of looking back with rose tinted spectacles that is without doubt but if it was possible I'd have us back at HR in a heart beat.

    Feelings Towards Ricoh Arena Now

    Exactly, but that's my point, mid week games are often just about the game and probably a bigger indicator of how a person feels about the ground with all the other stuff taken away. I remember the buzz I used to get walking up Raglan street, the glow of the floodlights illuminating the...

    Feelings Towards Ricoh Arena Now

    but I do find it soulless. You don't, you're totally entitled to that view. As for the pub thing, mid week games at either HR or the Ricoh are a different experience to Saturday games. Often involve a mad rush to finish work, get home, get ready and straight to the game so all the other stuff...

    Feelings Towards Ricoh Arena Now

    It diminishes the whole match day experience though which I then associate with the ground. At HR it was possible to have a good day out even if we lost, now the result is pretty much the be all and end all. Now I appreciate that HR was very convenient for me so they may add to my dislike of it...

    there's no where near enough space for a 25,000 seater stadium at the Butts but people still insist on debating how it can be done ad nauseum.

    don't confuse him, if he can't put a little label on everyone and stick them in a box his head will explode.

    Feelings Towards Ricoh Arena Now

    no it's not. Especially if you'd been going to HR since the 70s. You may not feel it's soulless but plenty do and I'm one of them. It's not just the ground, I used to meet up with lads I know from all over Cov in the pubs before and after games at HR. Now I stay in local before the game, maybe...

    Bringing Pontichelli on in a wide position was one of several baffling decisions by Robins today. Fuck knows what he was drinking at 5hat lunch.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Oxford United Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Mar

    I'm not so sure it's about Bayliss as much as Bayliss and Bright together when teams play like Oxford did second half. Thought Robins got it wrong in the second 45 today.
