    City players’ names we can’t pronounce

    Vincenti - is it Vinsenti or Vinchenti? I know Clive Eakin used to say Vinsentay.

    City players’ names we can’t pronounce

    Two obvious examples to me: George Boateng - should be pronounced Bwateng but everyone always said how it was spelt. Tony Andreu - going by his pre-season vid it should be pronounced ‘Ondrur/Andrur’ but we say ‘Andrew/Andreyu’ Any others?

    The Luck League

    This Notts County ‘we were lucky’ business bugs me a little bit. If we’d won the second game by the odd goal then I could understand it. But it was 4-1.... like England Germany in World Cup - if lampard’s goal was allowed (correctly) it would have been 2-2, different game blah blah blah -...

    Remember when we were top of The Premier League

    Ah memories. Show that to the youngsters. Not many teams still in it from that lot either. Also, Man Utd second bottom....they went on to win the league. Only one table that counts and it’s the one at the end of the season.

    Free gift with home shirt

    At least the Cov kits we can buy are exactly what the players are wearing, and we aren’t charged double the price for the privilege. These elite shirts - I’d love to see how much beneficial they are to the players. They are supposed to be lighter, better fit, and rather than embroidered badges...

    2018-19 Kit thread

    Surely the kit has to be different enough in order for people to justify buying it, but looking at the Nike teamwear templates most would be plain sky blue again, just slightly different collar and design. Unless of course the new kit is the Wembley kit, and the fact they said it won’t be next...

    New one-off striped kit for the play-off final

    I bought my daughter the kit last August, but they didn’t have the socks at that time, so got them elsewhere online, and the university Blue is correct shade. What they didn’t do was a university blue shirt like our kit, whereas this ‘special’ shirt they do do.

    FA charge Davies over stamping claim

    Just read about that Rhead incident and it was the same ref as Saturday night, Gavin Ward. If he’d have been sent off at the time he’d have missed our game and arguably we may have finished higher in league. Just fucking typical that the ref booked him and nothing could be done, yet Davies...

    Player Ratings

    Don’t agree that maguire-drew is one footed - he is more than happy to use his right foot to cross balls in. That said he scuffed three crosses today which could have led to chances when under no real pressure. For me Burge getting MOTM was a fair shout - I thought he played a blinder, bar some...

    Which goal made you go the most mental?

    Apart from the Carl Baker and Leon Clarke goals in the Preston JPT game, as far as I can remember I think the only time I have ever been bouncing up and down to a goal was stern johns equaliser against wolves the last season at the highfield rd, when he ran in from the touch line and scored in...

    Genuinely someone has been due a tonking for a while, I think we’ll go on a nice little run now. Well done boys.

    England Schoolboys

    Can anyone else remember when England Schoolboys played Scotland at Highfield Rd in the early 90’s - maybe 1993/4? It was on sky sports and I was a ball boy at the game. Just wondering if there is any data about the teams that night - I remember my mates always saying that Michael Owen played...

    Highway Code question

    Whoever has the least lines (hatched or otherwise) to cross to go in their intended direction should be allowed to go first.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Colchester United Match Thread - Saturday 21st Oct

    I’d be interested to see what system FGR played in their previous games - whether they changed in specifically for us, as I felt they were very defensive and hard to break down, closed us down quickly. Maybe they knew if they played like they do normally against us we would have a field day...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Colchester United Match Thread - Saturday 21st Oct

    I have to agree about the reaction to Tuesday - I think it was over the top. Of course I’m not happy we have lost two on bounce and not scored for a while, but of the 22 attempts the other night, how many were chances that anyone can honestly say “he has to score there”. 2 at most. I’m thinking...

    FIFA18

    Some of my mates are devout FIFA players on Xbox. I went round the other night to play it, and despite the licences (even though you can solve that issue on pes with an option file) I still think pes is miles better in terms of gameplay and realism. There’s only so many times you can hit the...
