    Flags in windows again?

    I seem to remember back in 87 everybody went crazy when we got to the semi finals of the FA Cup and put flags in house windows everywhere which today I look back fondly on that memory. Now I know that the 87 semi finals were a massive deal compared with the JPT semis but is anybody planning to...

    Bigirimana . Nice chap.

    Just noticed on my facebook feed that a person I know who used to endure a football kicked against their wall 24/7 by Bigi back in the day has recieved signed Newcastle shirts from him out of the blue really. Real nice thing to do!

    Arlesey poor betting odds for win.

    The longest odds available today have Arlesey at 12/1 beating Coventry some places offering 8/1. Not a betting man but these seem poor odds across the board even for a non better.

    Coventry. 1 hour after we lifted the FA Cup.

    Pretty random video. Guy walking around what is now Sky Blue Way filming an hour after Coventry lifted the FA Cup in 1987. Pre Sky Blue Way looks a right mess and video also contains a dog having a shit but gets better :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JRl_4X5G5E

    Which team? Last season or this season?

    Simple question. Would you swap the team we have right now in League 1 for the team that was relegated last season from the Championship to play in League 1 right now? Sort of using this question to gauge the strengh of our current side as I havent had the chance to see the new players yet.

    What will we get from the Olympics?

    Just thinking. What will we be left with after the Olympics? For example, will the Olympic rings remain on the Ricoh island? And has the Ricoh Arena had any work done to it which shall remain? I remember travelling to Barcelona in 2005 and as we went over the Pyrenees mountains I saw a really...

    The Ricoh is finally a fortress.

    Its true. The ground is finally a fortress. Just left the Casino (a little up may I add). Drove round the Arena to get out and I count 20+ security dotted around the Arena. I asked what they were doing and somebody replied that they were there on a long contract 8+ weeks 24 hours a day 7 days...

    How many more games?

    With our drop how many more games could we be possibly facing next season than usual? We hopefully stand a better chance at a cup run now in the Paint/milk cup and we go into the FA Cup at First round proper. This begs the questions, would people rather have a cup final day out at Wembley...

    Leon Mckenzie sings on Radio 1?

    This morning I swear I heard Leon Mckenzie's name and 'footballer' being mentioned on Radio 1 (around 6.30am) after a track played. Am I going crazy?

    How much are these worth?

    A friend I work with (Leicester fan) asked me to auction these mags he had from 1968 onwards. I collected them, 73 Jimmy Hill magazines! I have since put them on ebay. Never knew that Jimmy Hill had a magazine on general sale. Some quite interesting reading for 1968...
