Nick (not @Nick ) wasn't it? If not, sure there was an 'expert' who never went, but knew everything about how players performed by listening on the radio!

There was an Ian that used to phoned in years ago every game

Never knowingly encountered one, and wouldn't know where to look. I assume that if nobody paid any attention they wouldn't do whatever it is they do.

Harmless, but I much prefer an Alex Craig 'type' , who actually knows his footie, compared to a 'Sunny Takhar' who just screams at the camera and rarely says anything meaningful about the game (yet weirdly, is capable of talking common sense about other things non- CCFC - based on a couple of things I have accidentally stumbled across).. MattSB content is also pretty decent, and informed, too.

I was walking through town yesterday afternoon after getting the train back from Blackburn, saw that Sunny Thakar being filmed letting off Sky Blue flares and being followed by a bunch of kids. Now he is one true tosser!

I've posted before that I was next to Matt and Sophie at an away game once, they're both incredibly nice people.

I've seen Alex at a few away games, he seems like a genuine and decent sort.

Yourmatelee is not a friendly guy, had a bad experience with him at an away game where he just wanted to cause some sort of drama. My recommendation is to stay well away, personally.

Glad he was outed as a lapsed Man U supporter. Like many other people who supported Top 4 teams before hopping on the bandwagon.

Without causing too much to anyone from that neck of the woods.

You know when you just look at somebody and know they’re from Beduff. Proper scruff.

Beardy Lee seems like the biggest wanker on the planet. Never saw him at city games before 2024 yet now pretends to be Mr Coventry City. Fucking weapon.

He’s denied the “Jimmy Hill / Adolf Hitler Tribute” comment. You never truly know with AI but he comes across as idiotic enough to say it.

Maybe that's why he keeps regenerating as a fan of different clubs?

And that one from the US whilst you’re at it. There are a couple of YouTube channels I think are good and run by people who genuinely seem like proper fans, but the rest of them are risible.

I don't mind him on the basis that he isn't pretending to be something he isn't. Openly admits he's just started following us. Happy for people far & wide to fall in love with our great club.

Not really watched much of his content. Watched a couple when he was over here. I'm probably not target audience for this sort of thing though. Easy enough to avoid watching something if you don't want to watch it.

That’s the point, there’s no pretensions there. If he claimed to support Cov in the dark days of L2, then he’d deserve a bit of a storm.

In many respects, fair play to Joner. He didn’t have to pick us and god knows why he did to be honest… that said, he deserves to revel in the glory of Friday just as us ‘lifers’ all have.

Think this whole “influencer” generation in general needs to be put in the bin to be honest.


Modern day equivalent of begging on the streets for spare change.

Don’t get me started on the families that use their kids aswell…

Saw this today

Parenting influencer says she accidentally ran over her son with her car

Kelly Hopton-Jones described what happened on the “worst day of our lives” in a social media post detailing the incident.

These two are decent and I do like Jonah

Alex Craigs walks to the ground remind me of "Brillliiannntttt" from the Fast Show

I've met Lee once and he was fine, other than the constant vaping regardless of who was around him.

Social media has truly warped peoples minds.

Runs own son over, first thought lets try get some “content” out of this.

He watched our cup run games and Wright is one of his favourite players.

Completely normal reasons for finding your team.

He did make a fifteen minute video to tell us that, mind.

It's only going to get worse in the Premier League. All these sudden Cov fans will pop out of the ground and then will disappear at the first sign of trouble

Fair enough, he was a content creator beforehand so they tend to drag videos out!

I’m not really bothered about the origin stories - a lad I go to away games with often has the most random story I’ve heard.

I started following him on IG and think I’ll come to regret it. The club puts out enough content to get my fill!

Alex Craig's videos from the Derby and Blackburn games are really great. He's been doing what he does consistently over several years so his channel is almost like an archive of our rise from League 2 from the POV of a home and awayer, and his perspective on what promotion to the PL means to him is a great microcosm of what our fanbase is feeling.

Is this not the same guy who has been hosting all those training ground games for Coventry Building Society, and who also appeared on that quiz show hosted by Alex Brooker?

Yep. They had him, Lee and another. Could have only been worse if they'd had Keys, a Hattter and Sky Blue Fans TV.

As mentioned here Alex Craig is great and so is Simon Lillibury from That Cov Pod, but they dont get the same engagement. Not that it should bother me too much as I doubt I'm their target audience, but it's certainly not what football is about for me.
