I dunno, the train i was on contained hundreds of city fans and there wasn't much encouragement needed to go over there and be hostile from the very outset.

There's a full preview on local BBC news tonight apparently... They were briefly talking about it last night, i noticed it on the tv in the gym. I wouldn't read too much into a local news programme being pro-Luton..... its hardly an in-depth analysis and they're not exactly going to put up...

Tbf neither set of fans were without blame that day.

I think taking the hump because a local rival mocked our relegation is a bit petty. (not a dig at you personally.... but see a lot of City fans saying they'll "never forgive" Villa for singing Some Day We'll See You Again at that game.... That's bordering on Sunderland levels of bitterness.

What would our attitude be to Villa had we sent them down around that time? Probably something pretty similar.

Whilst i totally agree.... and the council appear to not give a toss about CCFC. There's a difference between putting on something open air in the city centre for Wasps and for us. Wasps they're getting a few hundred and some passers by..... CCFC they're looking at thousands. (none of which...

It was a rough day.... the atmosphere in and around The Rocket and the station was charged up... it seemed like most people felt we were down and wanted to go out with a bang. I remember the train stopped on a road bridge somewhere before Witton and there were loads of Villa fans walking...

Kool FM is now back on air.... part of RInse FM now. I think you can only get in on DAB if you're in London area, but can get it through their app or online. Managed to get it on my Sonos/TuneIn by copying the streaming URL or something.

You can still currently get an Off-Peak anytime day return for saturday for £69. Cov-Euston I doubt anything is going to be better value than that, given the likely chaos at Cov station i wouldn't be wanting to bank on getting a cheaper ticket for a specific train.

I remember this... wasn't it Oggy's record appearance match or something? My first was Ipswich, December 1992..... 2-2

They are awful

There has to be an acceptable level of risk otherwise it might as well be a non-contact sport. Players going down pretending they have a career-ending injury is a bigger stain on the game than a slight mis-time of a tackle.

It isn't nice to see. I don't like it from any team. Personally i think the whole method of penalising misdemeanours in football is arse-about-face. Mistime a tackle by a tenth of a second and you're looking at possibly a red card for dangerous play. But blatantly dive/cheat/pull someone...

Decent time.... sub 20 (y)

I would agree with this. I know we're a counter-attacking team and don't necessarily need to dominate possession.... but i don't see us shutting out a quality side like Middlesborough across two legs, and think they'll have just a little too much for us. (i shouldn't need to say this, one...

He's not ready yet (in my opinion) for anything better than a West Ham/Wolves level side. And i think it would be a bit of a waste for him to go to somewhere like those (aside from the obvious increase in wages). Footballing wise, i think he's better developing his reputation at us for another...

6 of those teams also sought to ensure that clubs like Coventry City would never be able to play at the highest level. They'll not get an ounce of support from me.

I ran for Warwickshire yesterday in the inter-counties mountain running championships. Men's team was made up of four Cov Godiva guys..... Ladies team was one each from Godiva, Nuneaton harriers and Stratford AC. Ladies had a fantastic showing and were 6th team, beating some established...

I don't see Middlesborough rolling over. If we beat them then i think we are playing them in the playoffs.... they aren't going to want to give us the mental advantage of having just beaten them, regardless of whether they've got nothing riding on this one. I think we need that point next...

Its a nice course but i don't think its necessarily a "pb" course. A busy few weeks for me.... Have been out running around the Yorkshire Dales this weekend.... was supposed to be racing the Yorkshire Three Peaks again yesterday, but managed to get selected for the Warwickshire team for the...
