    FA allows sex discrimination

    Equality Act 2010 allows single sex exemptions for sport. It seems the FA doesn't care enough to apply it correctly. If you are transgender you cannot be discriminated against in employment, housing, benefits etc. There are exemptions and the current issues around sport, prisons, refuges...

    FA allows sex discrimination

    I play grassroots level. Am I not entitled to respect, fairness and dignity because I am not "elite"?

    FA allows sex discrimination

    No such thing. You can modify your body. You cannot change sex. It's impossible.

    FA allows sex discrimination

    So far? Only at amateur / university level AFAIK. 72 are playing. I believe Blair Hamilton was/is GK for English universities team. Others will surely follow. That's one woman displaced from the team and one too many.

    Are People Moving?

    A tale for our times. Some fans moan that they can't stand and do it any way. This creates conflict with other fans, health and safety rules and ground regulations. We are told that lots of fans want safe standing. The club listens and provides safe standing, at no extra cost to supporters. Many...

    Semi Final Dates

    Yes. I live in Dudley. Travelled to Kingswinford - Wolves stronghold- on Sunday. I have worn City shirt everywhere since Saturday. Spoke to loads of fans and every one said, well done Coventry deserved to win and hope you beat United. Albion fans particularly happy.

    Wembley allocation

    I also couldn't get ticket for final in 87 despite going to every home game, 5th round, 6th round and semi. It was shambolic if you lived outside Coventry. I never leave anything to chance now. Make sure you can log in and don't bank on there being enough. In 1987 about 10 thousand tickets did...

    Mark Robins

    John Sillett is a legend and it can never be underestimated what he achieved. He gave us our first major trophy and the joy he engendered was brilliant. But he never had to deal with all the crap MR has had. At this point MR is up with JH and could go even higher.
