    You know when you don't know whether to laugh or cry

    And you probably end up doing both..... Stags on Rum found tangled in discarded fishing gear - Stags found tangled in lost fishing gear I couldn't help but laugh at that first pic, but it's also a sad tale and deers are dying. I laughed, then quickly gurned a sad face.

    The trains and Coventry station platform queue situation

    I wasn't there last season for the Checkatrade, but am going on the 28th. I was reminded on another thread of the chaos last year at Coventry station, but can someone actually detail what happened exactly. Was it an every man for himself situation? Did some trains sail past even though you had...

    When the Saints Go Marching In

    I had no idea just how many clubs' fans sing this and the variations upon it. I knew of 3 or 4, but heard Huddersfield fans singing it on Wednesday and Derby fans tonight. Just looked it up and the list is as follows: Man U Southampton Liverpool Birmingham Chelsea Bristol Rovers Leeds Fulham...

    Odd, surreal or weird things you have seen in your day to day life

    Just dropped the missus off at work and saw three ducks just sitting outside Wetherspoons on the grass, surrounded by empty beer bottles. Then, as soon as I started my journey back I saw a fox just nonchalantly stroll across a foot bridge.

    2 1/2 years in prison for disgraceful neglect?

    This has me stunned this. Really has. How can this only be a 2 and half year custodial sentence? Daughter left 79 year old mum to die covered in own faeces. The last 10 years spent in the same clothes, covered from head to foot in excrement. Daughter left mum to die in own faeces Absolutely...

    What is the one thing during a game that has you always groaning and rolling your eyes the most?

    Something that always has you shaking your head every time. Just seen it in the Fulham match and I think it has to be all the lining up for a free kick from a dangerous position, only for the taker of the kick to then balloon the ball way, way over the bar. It just always looks so ugly and...

    Player of the season vote now open

    NEWS: Player of the season vote now open - News - Coventry City Thought they might have been a few candidates earlier on (McDonald, McNumpty), but it has to be Michael Doyle by a country mile doesn't it? Would expect him to get at least 70% of the vote. McNumpty will surely then come second...

    Anyone know any decent fencers?

    Friend of the missus has had part of her back garden fence come down. Anyone know anyone reliable and half decent? Last time out we used Rated People for ourselves, but we weren't overly impressed.

    Myth busting!

    1. We have a great defence - Now proved to be patently untrue. 2. We have done well against the top teams - Lost twice to Accrington, plus losses to Lincoln and Mansfield and Exeter and Notts County 3. We are the best team in the league - Not even close to being remotely true. 4. Grimmer...

    One nice little positive

    Just forget about the scores for a minute and let's just focus on the goals we have scored at home lately. 7 goals in our last 3 home games. Something to be very proud of.

    How good is your memory of previous City matches during a season?

    Just wondering if everyone can remember everything in regard to the matches they have seen, say this season, goals, scorers, opponents etc.? Feel my memory is fading. Used to remember everything. There are some City matches this season that I have been to that I don't even recall at all. I...

    Nearest free on-street parking for the Ricoh?

    I have the map, but the only one I can find is non zoomable. I do have a list of all the streets covered by the scheme, but it is just a list of street names and without going through it all and checking them against a normal map I have no idea where many of the streets are. I am looking...

    Player ratings for the season

    So, imagine compiling the match ratings, but instead, marks out of 10 for each player and the manager over the course of the entire season. Obviously if a player has played only 3 or 4 games for us, an average rating based on those 3 or 4 games. Burge LOB Grimmer DiKE McDonald Willis Hyam...
