    Injuries

    I know injuries are part and parcel of the game, but we always seem to have such rotten luck with them. Wasn't it a couple of seasons ago where it seemed every CB we had was out injured at some point? I don't know, it just seems like our record with injuries is pretty rotten.

    Match Thread Grimsby Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 12th Aug

    That's how it looked to me. Telling the keeper it was coming back to him for an upfield punt, stay put. He just made a complete balls up of it then kicked up a fuss to hide his blushes.

    Match Thread Grimsby Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 12th Aug

    I caught the video of the goal earlier in this thread. What a bizarre turn of events! Clearly he'd taken it, and it was one of the worst attempts at a pass back I think I've ever seen! Good win again, seems we were the better team again today overall. Glad to get a win against Slade, we always...

    Kit Launch Q and A Match Thread

    I have to say the home kit is a massive improvenent on last years effort. Having seen it in person I like it even more. I'm glad to see us back in a predominantly sky blue kit. That's who we're meant to be, after all! The away kit however is not for me. Just not a fan at all. I don't like grey...

    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...

    My favourite Bond actor too. A great actor.

    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.
