Take action = don't be a complete c**t.
Not sure these lot are capable of such 'action'. Fair play to Doug for rinsing them for all they've got before their allocations are cut.

People can moan about Doug’s pricing strategy but there’s zero chance he’s changing his find when this is happening. More chance they will go up next season!

To be fair, there's still a few hundred £45 tickets left. I'm not convinced they will sell.

I'm expecting an unusual amount of away fans to be dressed as pregnant women to smuggle in their bin bags for a spot of fly-tipping. Hope we've got this closely monitored.

If I was Doug I wouldn't be making beer £3.60 For them. They clearly cant take their beer or coke so £10 a pint for them and close the toilets would be reasonable in the circumstances of their previous behaviour here

Definitely. Although those 500 seats may have been sold to 500 people who send £15 on a couple of pints and a burger.

I feel this won't be the same for the West Brom game which does not have the same appeal.

Can't stand these lot

Hate them on the same level as Leicester. Think they're a massive club when they arent even the biggest in their own city. Fans are all neanderthals and their accent should genuinely qualify them for disability benefits

Hope we twat them

I deal strictly in facts.

We have a better team than them so if we play well we should beat them no matter how they play.

I'm inclined to agree with you but the counsel for prosecution will always offer 'exhibit A' - In this case, Norwich City.

To anybody outside of the Midlands the Coventry accent is barely distinguishable from the Birmingham one.

Unfortunately I agree.
Don't mind the Brummie accent actually - imo the Leicester/East Midlands accent is worse

I love the optimism, but I’ve seen us lose plenty of games where we’ve played well against inferior teams!

It's completely different. Listen to James Maddison or Callum Wilson compared to Jack Grealish.

I was on a podcast earlier this year, with a mainly northern audience (and presenters).

The following episode my accent was heavily mocked, and they seemed to be mimicking a black-country accent.

I've always thought when hearing my own voice back, that it is a distinct accent, but there's definitely a hint of Birmingham in there.

It’s got mixes of Birmingham and Lesta, depends on the words. Generally I think it sounds more like they do in Lesta
