    U23 v Hull at the Higgs 1pm tomorrow

    The 6-0 score in the away game was a poor reflection on the team. The game kicked off at the KC straight after Hull’s first team had played so there wasn’t much chance for a warm up. Our players also had to get changed a fair distance from the stadium and walk through the streets to get there...

    USA Canada match thread

    Fair play to Canada. It’s looking promising for when they host the World Cup in 2026. Herdman is doing a great job. Wouldn’t be against him taking our top job when Southgate departs.

    They’re rail replacements.

    Coventry Arena to Coventry

    I’m not sure when it stopped but the service between Nuneaton and Coventry isn’t running at any point of the week. It’s always rail replacement buses. Good for us as we always seemed to get caught at that bloody level crossing at Hawkesbury!

    Where does everyone sit?

    My seat is towards the front of Block 17 with my family but most of the time I stand further back with a mate as her son’s seat is available. I could walk, run or cycle all day without any issue but sitting still with my knee at that angle for more than a few minutes is agonising! Getting old.

    Walker to pompey

    Was at the game. He struggled and looked isolated despite playing in a three (that could well also be the fault of who was alongside him to be fair to Walker). On the rare occasions he got the ball he did too much and lost it when other options were available. It should be said though that he...

    Upcoming ACL surgery - any tips?

    Only just seen this. I’ve done it 3 times on my right. Ice is important. A Cryo Cuff is the best thing you could buy. When you get to the point of single leg weight baring I found standing on a pillow/cushion helped with balance. Hope the recovery is going well.

    I first thought you meant your wife. Was very confused for a minute!

    Central America

    I’ve always found Jamaica excellent in that part of the world. Cuba too was a very interesting place and we’ll worth a visit. Both offered great value for money and experiences. Not sure how the pandemic has changed things though.

    World Darts Championship 2022

    Great night out at the Ally Pally. Game certainly wasn’t the best we’ve seen this tournament but it was still pretty even until Smith blew up in the last couple of sets. Wright is a worth champion and deserves two world titles. Smith will win a major soon. It’s only a matter of time.

    Coventry United Ladies

    Feel for the players. They’ve been hung out to dry and deserve so much better. It’s been coming since the mens side was purchased and the club was split. Things are pretty rocky over there too. Comedic statements and ridiculous decisions have been a constant. They’re a laughing stock.

    FA Cup 3rd Round Draw

    I might be in the minority (or completely alone!) but I would rather have an away game at a tiny non league club we haven’t visited before than play anyone at home.

    CCFC Supports Rainbow Laces - Why?

    I don’t understand why the gender of someone’s partner is a problem to other people. When it comes to the rainbow laces/corner flags etc, if that makes the LGBT community feel more accepted at a football match again I don’t understand why that is a problem.

    Thanks. Was it shown much?

    In-ger-land

    Agree with that. When we play with two holding, more often than not when the ball gets cleared out of the opponent’s box one of them picks it up and we can build again. When we have only one there it becomes more difficult for that to happen.

    In the stadium it was rubbish. Same as last time there. Was good in the bars in Rimini.

    In-ger-land

    Croatia, Colombia, Poland and Ukraine too. Also don’t forget his best performance in an England shirt was in Seville when he didn’t score. Despite his goal scoring record his hold up and link up play is the best part of his game.

    In-ger-land

    3 and 4 against Northern Ireland, 4 against Norway, 3 against Peru, 3 against Scotland. He had an exceptional record but to say he didn’t play against very easy teams is not right. Either way both strikers can’t be criticised for scoring regardless of who it’s against. Plenty of the top forwards...

    Not much that can be said about that. Don’t know what was worse. Them or their kit.
