    Sepalla: Stay or Go?

    If you can't see that things are currently on an upward curve then there's little help for you (admittedly we don't know entirely at what end of that curve we are at) I think it was nailed on that we'd go down to League 1 (at the very least), it happened to so many other clubs, it was always on...

    25% of EFL

    IMO any team who who haven't got a fully vaccinated squad should be forced to play with whatever healthy squad members they have left... regardless of whether that's us, our opponents, Premier League teams, etc.

    Barnsley is one of the better away days tbf... Massive away end, unreserved seating/standing, close to town centre, close to railway station, easy access to motorway.

    Holiday Memories

    I think it was The Bull a while back. But late 2000's-2010's was definitely The Orchard.

    Holiday Memories

    My biggest holiday memory of Cov was a summer holiday in Rhodes.... I walked into a regular bar of mine for the saturday scores and there was a Leicester flag across the door, and instantly took a load of shit off a large group of Leicester fans.... i thought it might get hostile as they soon...

    Running

    Sorry no i've not ran it, but it's just under 5 miles for one lap of the reservoir, so i assumed it must be 1 and a bit laps. I run at Draycote regularly, its undulating but nothing too serious. Worst bit is the wind along the long dams at each end of the reservoir. That can be really challenging.

    Running

    Club night with Godiva. 5 x 1km with 90secs rest. A much hillier km circuit than usual, and quite a battle with the wind. First three done in around 3:45 but then the weekend started to tell in my legs, and was down to 3:55 by the final rep. 8 miles, and 5 miles AM, a solid start to the week.

    FA Cup 3rd Round Draw

    Totally agree with Legia above. Some massive snobbery going on.... no doubt Derby are honoured to have such a huge game as Coventry away. I remember a few years back we drew Barnsley away and people were going mental about how it was a shit draw/tinpot club/etc..... conveniently forgetting...

    FA Cup 3rd Round Draw

    I remember Everton away in the FA Cup around about 1996. It was my first experience of a really big away following... i think we took 8000, i remember the sight of all the Harry Shaw coaches in a massive convoy going through Birmingham on the M6. Obviously the game was a complete let-down...

    Running

    Our league cross-country fixture was in Northampton today (the Division 2 ladies were also there, so that one also included Sphinx, Northbrook, Massey Ferguson). Bright, windy and cold. I ran 39:50 for a muddy, grassy, hilly 10km and it was still only good enough for 153rd. Even a minute...

    West brom attendance

    I think if people can say on match threads - when questioned about being negative... "well considering how far we've come, 0-0 at Sheffield United is a dissapointment" Then i think people can have some justification in saying that 22000 or perhaps a bit less is a little disappointing...

    Brampton-Carlise 10 Mile today. The oldest 10 mile road race in the country... 64:20.... aimed for 64mins so can't really quibble about 20 seconds.

    New Job Doubts

    If it was me, travelling down there once a month, or even once a week, would be very appealing, assuming you're working from home the rest of the time. But its all down to personalities.... London is ok if it's just semi regular like that. For the record i worked for a Coventry company who...
