I don't think that's a red card, in "today's game" or otherwise. Yellow at worst. They don't have the benefit of VAR (for whatever that might be worth), but a yellow would be correct imo. What pisses me off is when people commit deliberate fouls just to break up play.... blatantly tripping...

Exactly. It's a three hour car journey (with basically no alternative travel option). And despite the new-found love city fans have for our stadium, i'd imagine it still ranks fairly low on the list of must-do away days for champs teams. That said, i'd imagine they'll get up to 500+

Hope she did ok Daz....? I was out and about on Tamworth Rd between the 8 and 9 mile markers. Poor weather for road runners. I'd imagine the front-runners wouldn't have batted an eyelid, but for those who may only race a couple of times a year i can imagine it was a miserable couple of hours...

That is a very fair point... but if we fall away this year, or start badly next year, knives will be out in a shot. Look at last year... People suggesting he'd "hit his ceiling" with promotion from league 1 and we should replace with someone more experienced.

Is anyone doing the Coventry Half Marathon this weekend? I've been laid low with a cold and not ran since wednesday morning, but i might be out along the route somewhere on sunday if i can shift it....

Last time i went (2-1 win, perhaps mid 2010's?), there is a pub up a side road, just across the park from the stadium... The Brickmakers.... that seemed to have the main contingent of City fans near the ground (i didn't venture into the city centre though)

I've always gone M1 to Hull. Not too bad a journey if the road is clear.

Club night with Godiva last night. 5 x 1km with 90secs rest, round a road loop in the Warwick Uni campus. 3:34 3:30 3:23 3:21 3:24 Wasn't looking forward to it as not done any reps shorter than a mile for a good few weeks, as been trying to build strength for the upcoming cross-country season...

He has a birthday come up on facebook... 1st April!

Did 9 miles (almost but not quite two laps) round Draycote Water this morning at 6:40/mile pace (20:50/5km pace) Windy across the dams, and the uphill undulations really make it tough to maintain good pace and rhythm. Currently on 76.5 miles for the week, but might finish the week off with a...

I'm not a big wearer of kits, but i think that is nice and preferable to the previous two-tone kit. Without the sponsor it would be lovely.

Both goals were unnecessary. Needless corner given away for tte first, and a rash free-kick, and then completely falling asleep for the 2nd. Problem was you could see it coming the way we sat back, but even then Preston didn't look capable of breaking through without our errors.

There's people on here happy to slate referees in the match thread... yet equally happy to condone Godden conning his way to a penalty, decieving the referee against Fulham...

Went out this morning wanting a fairly hard run. Ended up doing 6km at 19:50/5km pace. Not quite the distance (nor pace) that i was looking for. However i ran 13 miles yesterday, have trained twice a day all week except for friday, with a number of strength sessions in there too... so couldn't...

Whatever he meant by it... i agree that there's too much politics in football, and think that the ban on "political statements" by FIFA/UEFA was one of the few things they actually got right. If players etc want to take the knee... fine. But then those same players are going to be off to the...

We were incredibly fortunate with a penalty decision last time out though.

It was a CCFC plaque, on the site of Highfield Road... why is it even going to be considered to be replaced by a Wasps equivalent... I despise Wasps as much as the next young man, but that is paranoia on an unbelievable scale...

I could swear we beat them away during the first Robins era.

we had an away match at Peterborough some time in the last decade (they still had the terracing in the away end).... we lost 1-0 and that Villa loanee hit the post from about six yards out... that was possibly the coldest i remember.

Cov had a massive army of loonies out as well... even people who i'd just normally see at matches, but weren't "the mob", were going mental... and Birmingham were about in the city centre... apparently West Brom as well.
