I bumped into a group of Cov fans with a flag and shirts etc after Wrestlemania 29 in New Jersey waiting for coaches. Just really wanted to know if anybody knew any Cov fans who went to Wrestlemania 29. They were from Earlson or Coundon.

Anyway, here is me representing Cov in the Metlife Stadium a few hours before Wrestlemania. (awesome stadium)

A) what are you doing up at 3am posting pictures ?

B) why am I up at 3am replying ?

C) Good work, haven't watched Wrestling for years but I'd love to go to a Wrestlemania for the atmosphere. We should have a competition, most bizzare place you can have your picture taken wearing your Cov shirt !

I got a photo somewhere of me in my 1988 Hummel pinstripe top, taken at Cape Canaveral with the Shuttle launch pad behind me. If I can scan it in (when I find it), I'll post it.

I may be wrong but I think both the New York Giants and the New York Jets play there mate, or I might have got my stadiums mixed up

They could for Raw, Smackdown and other weekly programming. However for pay-per-views this could pose a problem:

a, Pay per view start around Midnight or 1 am U.K time (bosses and teachers won't be pleased).

b, Americans want it shown live (unlike Raw which is taped before air at the same time on Sky Sports and USA Network) meaning 7 or 8 pm east coast, 4 or 5 pm west coast. Not 2 or 3pm New York time or 11/midday LA time.

That's an 80000-seater or so, replaced the old Giants stadium (built more or less nextdoor). When Saturday Comes had a screengrab of a 'Venky's Out' sign someone had brought along too. Kindred spirits at the wrestling!

HI was wearing the '87 replica shirt at Coachella Festival in California last easter. An American shouted at me "TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR, 3-2!". I got talking to him and it turned out that he was at Wembley and it was one of his earliest memories. He's in this photo somewhere.

Sounded like it. Was really looking forward to Del Rio vs Swagger, turned out to be shit apparently. Rock and Cena was suposed to be 'once in a lifetime', HHH vs Lesnar was just a fight, from what i heard CM Punk vs Undertaker was pretty good tho

If a grown bloke watching wrestling wasn't bad enough, with a football shirt over the top of a sweatshirt no less, he has his photo taken pointing at the ring..........

All you've done there is describe a photo.

Don't be hard on yourself, it was a pretty accurate portrayal. Handy for any blind posters.

Do you favour the traditional football shirt over sweatshirt look, or take a risk and put it over a hoody?

Both are too bulky to work as undergarments for me. If I'm so inclined, I go with a T-shirt underneath if it's a bit nippy.

Knew I would get a little grief over the pic

The Metlife Stadium was really impressive. I think it's the most expensive in the World. Next year I am off to the Mercedes Superbowl in New Orleans, will repeat picture next year in same pose

And neither team owns it outright. Do you think they moan about not getting the revenue from Pies & cups of Tea...?
