I and 5 others are in the process of moving. It’s a fucking playground in block 14 . But in all fairness they take their own colouring books with them

It’s all done for attention seeking unfortunately ( being in the press etc).

There was a conversation being had after one of the sky blue tavern events recently about this. They’re harmless but it does make CCFC look tinpot and I wish they would’ve do it.

So then-it’s had the desired effect if at the end of a social event people are talking about them.

What irritates you most that they stand there watch the game and are noticed or the fact that you walk into the ground and nobody notices you?

Saw some kicking off at the end of the game in blk 18 when an old boy asked/told some guys to move as they stood in the way at the bottom the stairs by the exit at the end of the game. Got very finger pointy …shouting and tbh they were in the way completely blocking their view. Think they had a young child with them (the pair stood up) tbh the old boy didn’t look intimidated but he shouldn’t need to be, or be in that position …rude and aggressive with no need, there were empty seats they could have just sat in

Not a Daily Mail reader by any stretch but Mrs shared an article in there this week and it’s about how the young generation just can’t accept the word ‘no’ or being told ‘you can’t do that’. How being respectful is demeaning or weak in front of others… what the feck is happening with society!!! Covid seems to have amplified this behaviour!!!

It’s always happened and society would have been far more dangerous centuries ago.

I don’t think previous generations had the same sense of entitlement… it’s being driven by social media and weak parenting. And I include myself in that parenting criticism

I don’t agree, there are plenty of young people who are prepared to work hard and others who don’t, which will have always been the case. I do think social media has caused increased consumerism and probably makes people compare themselves to others more in an unhealthy way though.

Don’t think it’s the mere existence that gets on my nerves. It’s more the fact that pretty much all media treat them as the face of Coventry City. Sky Sports will always find them. That and their self-important bullshit.

As an educator of the younger generation it is quite simple: The culture in the world today has made them disrespectful pricks, way more than they used to be and that is totally down to social media and similar. Sad state of affairs.

I don’t believe anything that rag says. But it’s been reported elsewhere and I’m looking at some first hand evidence whenever I come into contact with the yoof of today or my kids friends. I just think there is a whole load of shit coming down the track with this teenage generation. Of course there are some really good kids out there… but there are far more spoilt entitled brats who think you can earn a great living from just talking shite on social media… I despair!!!

The little prick in question was cringeworthy embarrassing, it would have been beautiful to see him knocked( out by anyone willing to do which several had a nibble with but backed off because of obvious porridge time) , just to teach him a lesson in life.

The same was said 20 years ago when I was a teenager. Social media has got nothing to do with young people being disrespectful, personally I find older generations to be just as disrespectful to others as young people.

Young people are cunts nowadays

But saying that a lot of the older generation are cunts too


So, in summary, the world is now full of cunts

You might be right, although it’s not my experience, but doesn’t every generation say the same about the yoof? Isn’t it just us getting old(er)?

Don't think Aristotle would have been a fan of Singers Corner...

“[Young people] are high-minded because they have not yet been humbled by life, nor have they experienced the force of circumstances.
…
They think they know everything, and are always quite sure about it."

Remember one of the papers printing an editorial about how standards had slipped, how young people had no respect for anyone anymore, how society was on the verge of breaking down etc etc - right at the end they noted that it had originally been printed in 1909.
