I also hate that I'm gonna need a new car by the end of the season as the 2 fat fuckers in the back of my car make me scrape every speed hump between tile hill and the ricoh!

As someone who lives outside Cov the most annoying thing is the constant inane conversation i have to have with anyone who casually asks which team i support.

"Whos your team?"
"Coventry City"
"Oh...... whys that then?"
"Its where im from"
"You don't sound like a brummie?"
"Well i wouldn't would i considering im not from fucking Birmingham "
"Eh?"
"Nevermind its not important "
"But do you follow Man City or Man U?"
"Neither i follow Coventry City"
"But.. eh?"
"Nevermind"

Either that or i just get "Cov eh, they were good in 87 weren't they. Sleeping giant. I remember some good away days at Highfield Road. Crying shame. Criminal."

I get this, usually followed by 'what league are you in now?'

People who shout 'forward'

People who groan when someone doesn't play the through the eye of a needle pass and instead pass sideways.

People who groan when said player attempts eye of the needle pass and it is intercepted saying 'play it simple'

People who shout 'shooooot' when the ball is 35 yards from goal & groan when they don't shoot.

People who groan when a player shoots from 35 yards & it ends up row z.

People, usually neutral, who turn up to watch a game of football, and who spend the entire 90 minutes play rabbiting about what's going on at work, where they're going for their holidays, how the missus is etc. Happened at a game last year - my colleague aside me had to nail my fists to my lap.

That night when we played Portsmouth in the cup and lost in the last minute of extra time after the manager (coleman?) finished the game with a defender up front (who was that?).
It was freezing cold and that fool in the Portsmouth end rang that bloody bell all the way through the game. Imagine having a season ticket next to that plank.

and which means when you might look at the scoreboard for the match time, you can't see it.

Not a moan, but it makes me smile every time I see it. When a goal is scored, I always watch the keepers reaction. He either glares at his defence, shouts obscenities at them or just lays on the ground in a strop. The defenders get it in the neck whether it was their fault or not! This is any keeper of any team, by the way! :emoji_grin:

Pundits who use the phrase 'the likes of...'
eg They say United have got the likes of Rooney and Ibrahimovic up front, when in fact it is actually them and not players who are like them!

Substitutions that the off going player walks as slow as possible across the entire length of the pitch to waste time.

People who think Leicester winning the league was a fairy tale. They cheated their way out of paying for their stadium using administration sending local businesses bust then spent hundreds of millions getting out of the championship completely disregarding FFP. Yes winning once they got their was impressive but if they behaved in any decent manner before they'd have been nowhere near the league let alone win it.

Strange that all of your observations on this subject seems to have been erased from their history.
Totally correct on every point.

Got to be the super fans!!
The ones with cushy, well paid jobs who can come and go whenever they like. The ones with nothing else in their lives but football , the ones who can't understand why you couldn't finish your shift early , pick up the kids and get to Plymouth for a midweek game.
Oh , and those who complain about part time glory hunters turning up for games and making them wait longer for a half time cup of dish water.

Grandison! Brought him on despite having a striker on the bench (can't remember who) Every time Chris Coleman was getting praise last year, that game came to mind.

They pop a big logo on the screen, which is annoying as I tend to look for how long's left during breaks in play.

It's human nature to bitch and moan when things aren't going well and to be quiet and contented when they are going well. Ever thus it has been, and ever thus it will be. The only strange thing is that people are continually surprised by this.

No it's not human nature? It's just how society is now, it's a learned attitude, to bitch and moan when things go wrong.

Yes, no one complained until 1985, I read that in a history book somewhere.
