I was at the first L1 game, Yeovil away... our fans singing "we'll never play you again" after we went a goal up inside 10mins... i did think that song was a little premature!

Sunderland really seem to have hit the self-destruct button. Can argue the rights and wrongs of sacking their previous manager... reading their forum it seems that losing 6-0 to Bolton was "unacceptable" and was the final straw for many... but from the outside, they were around 3rd place and...

The final league cross-country fixture yesterday at Leamington. Really nasty underfoot conditions. had my best ever placing, finally getting into the top 150 (136th), although to be honest it was this fixture that i'd been targeting, being a notoriously nasty and hilly course it suited my...

The two most shocking away trips for me were both around mid-2000's when we were in the championship. Gillingham away under Peter Reid. It was between xmas and new year, and was absolutely freezing.... i travelled down with a mate who had only just passed his driving test, so the 4 hours each...

I remember that game. Travelled up via car and had to divert round Manchester because of horrific M6 traffic. Ended up in Accrington at lunchtime, unable to find anywhere to get anything to eat. Arrived in Burnley and went to a pub in the backstreets of that estate opposite the ground...

Club night, 3 x 1 mile reps around Warwick Uni, with 2 minute rests. 5:46 5:48 5:51 (although had to negotiate round a couple of cars on this one) Decent session, running reps under 5:50 is decent by my own standards. A solid start to the week, 29 miles in last two days.

I did a predictor all the way to end of season, which had us missing out by about 6pts (along with Forest and Stoke). WBA picking up and sneaking in. Also had Derby staying up on final day.

I think the fact that we have a slightly different stand, hardly marks it out as unique compared to Leicester, Middlesborough, Soton, etc. As much as we all allegedly love the stadium now we're doing well, its still an indentikit off-the-shelf modern stadium. As much as i'd love us to stick two...

I use treadmill often, as being a fellrunner, its an easy way to get the climb in. You can (obviously) do any routine that you can do on the roads.... for some reason i prefer to do treadmill interval sessions based on time, rather than distance, perhaps because treadmill running doesn't quite...

Think his name was "Pete"

Had a run round Bedworth Parkrun this morning. It was the 4th anniversary and was far busier than usual. WIth a good 100 more people than usual. And a higher number of quicker runners at the front end as well (was the first time i've ever been outside the top 3 or 4). A steady 19:32, although...

Of course, if O'Hare and Hamer start knocking in a decent tally of goals, while continuing to play to their current level in other areas, they'll be gone from us very quickly.

I remember when it first opened they had a gym in there. It was superb, i'd say best gym in Cov. Also had a sauna/steam room, and as part of membership you could run round the cinder "track" round the pitch. Got closed down after a few years and used for office space. An absolute waste of a...

3:30km pace for me is 3000mtrs race pace (or it was last time i did it... could perhaps take a few seconds off that now). Can run consistent km reps in close to 3:20, but stringing them together is a different matter! Hoping to perhaps run a couple of track races for Godiva in the league this...

That's some session.... 15km at a solid pace. My mate today did 4 x 10 minute reps at around 3:30/km pace which is ridiculous! I'm training tonight and supposed to have a hill session with Godiva, but still tired from the weekend, so will be taking it very steady, and perhaps going to copy my...

Any club runners interested in trying out any track races.... there are a number of events open for entry at Pingles Nuneaton over the spring and summer. I have done a number of these and they are well organised, and you will be seeded in a race with people of similar time/ability. I'm in for...

Raced on the fells on sunday, 11.5 miles and 4500ft climb (and descent). Was 4mins off a pb, although given the conditions, and the fact i lost 6-7mins looking for a checkpoint on the wrong side of a mountain, i was very pleased with. Haven't felt great running on the flat, due i expect to my...

Its well down the list of priorities for the club in my opinion... even on the commercial side it should be down the list... I was locked out of my ticket account for over a month as they clearly don't (or didn't) have the capacity to respond to emails.... things such as ticketing and...

crikey

And i believe that is what Marty suggested with his opening post, i merely commented to say i agreed with it. No more, no less. If SBT wants to start with the "bore off" "pub stories" then that's fine, he's obviously formed his opinion of me and i'm not about to spend any time arguing it, as it...
