Some of the logic is amazing.

In theory, wouldn't they have been sending their money to Ryton for the season tickets previously which is actually outside of Coventry? ;)
As its SISU won't it be going via the Cayman Islands?

I use Farcebook, but have never looked at the Cov City thing on there. I use Farcebook mainly to keep track of my kids, grandkids and great-grandson. Oh, and I love a good wind-up on the Isle of Wight pages! (They all think I still live there! I've never told them any different. ;)) There are also some funny memes and gifs as well.

I got off the page a while ago, but I think I know the guy you’re on about. Think he’s the one that’s helping the blind kid to St Andrews that asked for help. I think, anyway!
Bit of a bump. This is amazing: . Always thought that Justin seemed a bit of a nutcase on the forum but seems a proper decent bloke in what he has done for Jamie and comes across really well in this.

That Justin is a fucking bellend. Promised to take the blind chap every game and has taken him twice this season, one of which was Blues FA Cup and the other the first game of the season.

Sells fake clothes on the side and is always calling for violent protests against wasps. (we have mutual friends)

I mistakingly joined, just to keep abreast of what is going on, and in the ignorance that there might be some away matches streamed. I dont really use Facebook, its more for tracking the kids.

However the level of stupidity and sheep mentality on there is astounding. Sadly I think it is just a mirror on society. The only reason I havent left is that when the sane ones leave, all thats left is the idiots, and it becomes even worse.

(Probably why I'm still on here, too :). )
I’m not on Facebook but managed to persuade my partner to join the cov group so I could hopefully watch the streamed games. She’s now regularly complaining to me about how it’s nothing but angry/weird Skyblue shite popping up on their Facebook! Facebook by proxy...it’s the only way!

I've noticed that there is a bloke on there called Justin who appears to have some kind of unofficial leadership over the rabble. Generally what he says, whether it's right or wrong, appears to largely go unchallenged. It's a weird dynamic and I'd like someone smarter than myself to do a case study on it.

He is their leader, used to be head of the legion, pretty solid lad to be fair, you wouldn't want to mess with him. Last saw him at the Sunderland home game last season, inciting trouble.

Well, if the one bloke was talking about taking 5,000 down to Sunderland, I would suggest it's not going to happen. I would also offer to suggest he needs to vastly improve his geography skills.
In these parts (NW Scotland), you go "up south".

I'm a regular contributor to the forum (Mainly calling people out on their inane ramblings) But what I tend to find, as with any Facebook community, is that the Minority come across as the Majority. Someone will post "Robins out" just to annoy people and the next month is full of people saying "Cant believe people want robins out our fans are ridiculous etc etc. It is annoying but you cant help look at it. Like if you accidentally see a dogs Vagina...

Don’t think he runs it. Afaik the lad who used to run it doesn’t go anymore but him & his family are very well known around Cov

A couple of years ago on there I rounded on one of the simpletons for generally being a complete fool and unable to spell even the most basic of words.... he pm’d me calling me a “nonse” (sic) and then blocked me.

I was so hurt I’ve never posted on there since.

To be fair, they were 12 and you were asking them to meet you.

Over the last couple of weeks i took it upon myself to delve into the unholy land of the Cov city fans Facebook forum. I can assure you it is the most ridiculous thing i have ever seen. i will fill you in on the stories and posts i have seen!
Found one bloke moaning about pre ordering his kit and being told it would not arrive till the 25th. Another Bloke suggested taking 5,000 down to Sunderland regardless of the allocated amount of tickets and as he put it "having a rumble with the Sunderland lot" I was called an idiot when i stated on one post that i was going to be going to St Andrews with my dad and my mate(put your pitchforks away i want to support robins and the team). There is a bloke called Steve who regularly posts "We're Shit Robins out after every club announcement without fail which i pointed out to him that attention seeking is a rather pathetic trait after the age of 6. There is also my good mate Nathan who reckons the Club's Twitter account faked a signing and he also thinks Biamou has never scored for us despite video evidence. Why does the Facebook group have such a wide array of idiots. Does any one else have any interesting encounters.

I may be wrong but that Steve is doing it tongue in cheek I think with the Robins out stuff etc.

I hope.
