I follow 2 teams. Ireland all my life because I was born and live there and Coventry for the last 40 years for reasons which I can't remember, think it was they were good to watch and always had some Irish connection such as Noel Cantwell as manager and other Irish internationals playing for them. This weekend I watched both teams live and it was dreadful.
It is the first time I have seen Coventry since all the new players arrived and I now understand why they are alll free transfers. Today there was no pace, no skill and no passion. Maybe a new manager can bring some system and confidence to this squad but I could just not believe how bad the performance was to-day. Then to see Steve Staunton at the match. Please no, no, no. I suffered too many matches with him as Ireland manager. The worst ever.
If it is any consolation,my beloved Ireland were even worse on Friday and won by pure fluke.
Why do we follow football. There must be something positive in life
