    A way out of signing Chaplin?

    I thought that was the point of signing him. Have never understood why he sits so deep in games. I'm no football tactician, but if you sign a player to score goals, stands to reason you want him in the best position to do so.

    The Christmas 2018 thread

    Think we've got one ordered to pick up. Our Microwave has an oven feature too. Think we've also lucked in to finding an electrician to come look at a repair. Hopefully it's fixable. These things only ever go wrong at the worst possible time don't they!

    The Christmas 2018 thread

    Would you bloody believe it? The last of our Christmas food arrived today. Not that we're likely to cook it, because our oven's heating element has just decided to go bang, and I highly doubt anyone will be able to fix it this side of Christmas. Merry bloody Christmas. Ho, ho, ho, bah humbug

    Gatwick Drones

    That's the way a lot of the modern press work in this day and age. I suppose outrage headlines sell better.

    Gatwick Drones

    That's exactly what I thought. They can't be as old as quoted surely? No way does his wife look in her fifties in the pictures the papers have published, she looks about 30!

    Jodi Jones ACL

    I don't know if he wears them, but it has a lot to do with these bladed boots that are popular these days. Something to do with how much grip they give. That said, we seem to have rotten luck with these injury types at the moment. Rotten luck for him and us.

    Police moped knockdowns

    This was the subject of some debate on Radio 2 over the weekend, and some of the arguments against it were just ludicrous. They might get hurt. So bloody what, they might get hurt? Maybe don't go out and intentionally commit a crime then? If you make a decision to go out and break the law, then...

    Robbie retiring.

    Still not quite sure how that goal against Arsenal made it in, such a nonchalant flick. Such a shame we only had him for one season. We didn't have that quality again the season after, least not until Harston was signed and scored a few, and it cost us dearly.

    Appeal Dismissed

    We're now in a position where we have to hope that Wasps bluff has been called, and they relent and do a deal. How determined are they to stick to the "no talks with legal action going on" stance? For the sake of our club, let's hope their resolve can be bended a little. Either way, the fans...

    Appeal Dismissed

    Well, seems they've gambled all in on that being the case. I hope to high heaven that you're right.

    Jodi Jones Injury

    We never seem to get much luck with injuries, do we? How many defenders did we get through that season when Ben Turner came back here? Hopefully Jodi's isn't as bad as it seemed, but the way our luck usually pans out with these things it probably will be. On a side note, my mum did her knee...

    Footballers who don’t look like footballers

    Never thought Le Tissier looked like a footballer, especially considering some of the outrageous skill he was capable of.

    Most annoying or hated TV advert!

    It's not a TV advert per se... But I remember at Christmas time year before last watching a 20-odd minute YouTube video. The advert that came on was legitimately a full hour and a half documentary about something I had no interest in whatsoever. Needless to say, I was very relieved to see the...

    Worst Manager since premier league relegation

    For me, Coleman. We underperformed drastically under him, with the squad we had at that time. It was surely reasonable to think we could have been at least in the top half of the table with that team. Yet it remains some of the most dour, dull and depressing football we've played. And, when we...

    Most annoying or hated TV advert!

    Nothing has ever made me reach for the mute button faster than when this piece of crap comes on. Ironically, it only ever strengthens my resolve not to bloody bingo with Sun bingo!

    Memorable Sky Blue debuts...

    Nuzzo. But certainly not for the right reasons. In fact, has there been a worse debut for the club than that?

    Was this Coventry City's worst ever transfer window?

    Whilst the summer window of that season was bad, don't forget the January window of the season before that was pretty shocking too. Maybe it was something of a warning sign for what was to come.

    Formula 3 crash

    My first reaction when I saw it was to wonder how many people had lost their lives in it. That nobody, so far at least, has is an absolute miracle of miracles. That She only suffered a fractured spine is an incredible thing in itself. I wouldn't like to guess exactly what the impact speed was...
