    Homophobic chanting

    I agree with a lot of what you have written ccfc1234. I would also say there has been a very well documented rise in racism since the Brexit vote but that's for another channel.

    Homophobic chanting

    Interesting angle. Let's somehow blame Garth Crooks and Lenny Henry for the behaviour of online racists.

    No need to re-open this one. But the reaction to a young lad making stupid drunk comments on holiday surrounded by his mates seems way over the top to me. We've all made mistakes - well I have and I'm very happy that social media wasn't around at the time to record my various lapses of...

    Homophobic chanting

    I'm on your side on this Faz. Everyone should feel welcome at our games. But in terms of all the problems we have - the non-attendance of the possible legions of Cov LGBT fans just waiting to show up at our games is probably a fairly long way down the list.

    Homophobic chanting

    "And finally, my own philosophy for life: just be nice to other people. Being nice may include piss-taking if you feel they are getting it as a joke and are giving it back. But it certainly doesn't include making someone else feel bad. That's horrible. " Excellent post trench. Except of...

    Homophobic chanting

    I really don't think any of the lads chanting this intended to cause any offence - but I can see both arguments. It's still the case that what goes on in football grounds would not be tolerated in normal situations. Screaming foul mouthed and personal abuse at players and officials - I don't...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Gillingham Match Thread - Saturday 24th Aug

    Agreed. I like both Shipley and Westbrooke - but it may be that Westbrooke is best suited to Kelly's role if he's out with a knock? I also like Shipley's driving energy a lot and he's a threat running into the box for sure. On saying that can't wait to see a midfield 3 of O'Hare - Kelly -...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Gillingham Match Thread - Saturday 24th Aug

    That twat Grendel is obviously in a bad mood as we've won again. He hates that as it gives him less chance to moan and complain. So he's looking for a fight. That's right - we have a poster who hates to see us do well. He actually posted a couple of constructive and positive posts last week...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Gillingham Match Thread - Saturday 24th Aug

    I see what you are saying Paxman - second half was disappointing. But it's been a brilliant start to the season. Unbeaten and the atmosphere at Brum is far exceeding my expectations. And on top of that we had key players missing today. Today's team was missing Dabo, McFaz, Allen, and Kast...

    Normally against the singling out of individuals and bullying by crowds. But make a complete exception for that twat Steve Evans. He deserves everything he gets.

    LWCCFC

    I actually think that's the first apology/admission of a mistake that I've ever read on this forum by anyone. Good stuff. Minor differences of opinion usually end with threats of serious violence or even worse degrading of birds of prey. This could be a whole new era!

    our 1-11

    Good point Fernando. Our first goal at Portsmouth was created by a left channel run from Godden (fantastic player and movement) and a cross into Hiwula in the centre forward position. With Jobello racing up to support. That's real fluidity in a front 3. Also last year we had the glory days...

    Mark Robins Is the GOAT

    Agree with every word of what Irish Sky Blue has said. Milne an absolute legend and deserves far more recognition from the club/fans: SUPREMOS: A profile of former Sky Blues manager Gordon Milne He also had a very decent career after leaving us - he's a folk hero in Turkey for what he did...

    Mark Robins Is the GOAT

    Gordon Milne has to be in this debate.

    Transfer Rumour Incoming - Callum O'Hare - Season Loan

    I mostly agree with Dreamer on this. The rivalry with Villa seemed a little contrived to me even in the 90s. Villa were focused on other teams in Birmingham etc. We needed to manufacture a rivalry - not saying though there wasn't an edge by the time we were relegated. I also don't recall...

    Coventry City Fanzine

    If you take up Grendel's offer (please spare us) to write for you...... 'WE'RE FUCKING SHITE AND I HOPE WE LOSE' ......would fit the content nicely.

    4-4-2 or 4-3-3

    My best guess is that the intended formation (before injuries) in the promotion season was: Burge Grimmer, Willis, Davies, Stokes Kelly, Doyle, Andreu McNulty, Biamou, Jones Last season was a bit weird as following the failings of Ogogo, Andreu and Doyle......10 bags Bayliss ended up...

    4-4-2 or 4-3-3

    I think this is another thing BlueElephant that Robins does very well and that we don't discuss very often. He doesn't hold onto favourites/own signings and seeks to improve in every position each year. I'm sure that last year he was desperate for his big signings (Ogogo and Brown) to...
