    Driving to MK...

    If the motorway traffic's ok I would go M1 rather than a5. If you go a5 at that time of day you can que for a considerable amount of time getting through Towcester.

    Another confessions time anyone??

    On the shitting front, I've also had a couple of memorable occasions. Once in the colosseum I got caught horribly short after far too much to drink and had to make a heroic run for the bogs. Unfortunately I could only make it to that little female toilet that was by the upstairs bar. After a...

    Another confessions time anyone??

    It was my brothers 18th birthday on the day of that match at home to West Brom when Jonnie Jackson banged in the winner in the last minute. Unfortunately we'd been out the night before on a massive session. I was feeling pretty ropey, but my little brother was in bad shape. As the match neared...

    Another confessions time anyone??

    I was seeing a girl from Radford for a bit, on and off, nothing serious though. One day she text me in a bit of a state as there was a spider in her bathroom, could I come round and get it. I was at work so politely declined. She replied that she'd give me a blowjob if I helped her out. I was...

    Captain Ridley’s Bletchley

    I was in MK a couple of Saturdays ago when MK Dons were due to play Wimbledon. Apparently the Wetherspoons in a Central MK were only serving plastic glasses all day, although there weren't any restrictions of Wimbledon fans going in. Certainly a possibility though, given the huge numbers, and...

    MK Ticket Pricing

    I was in MK this morning and there was a reasonable amount of alert as they are playing Winmbledon today. I understand the Wetherspoons were only serving plastic glasses in anticipation of "football hooligans", and obviously there's hardly a firm waiting for the opposition, but the authorities...

    Coventry city centre

    A good place for something more substantial than your standard coffee shop stuff, but still the same kind of atmosphere, is a little cafe type place on that road where the Golden Cross/Newt & Cucumber are (Bayley Lane?) If you turn down from the courtyard end it's about halfway down on the...

    Blade in peace

    But if everyone thinks Sheffield Utd fans are such a bunch of Neanderthal idiots, then why get our pants in a twist when they sing a few songs. Who cares what they think or say, it was a deliberate wind up and amazingly appears to have worked.

    Blade in peace

    I despair of our fans, I really do... When we have sung songs, such as Shit on the Villa, bastards in claret and blue, build a bonfire, etc.... do really really expect Villa fans to think we mean it, and actually get upset and think we are "scum"...? Yet a few Sheffield Utd fans on an away...

    The pitch

    It's poor all round at the Ricoh. I know we are only tenants, but we are quite obviously very low priority to our illustrious owners. Pitch shocking. Despite a poor attendance there's not enough staff/kiosks open, and even at the end of half time there are still queues. Barely half of the lights...

    Give me good old Coventry any day

    I like London for a day out, but not the usual tourist places, they are packed full of people living their lives through photos on their phone. But there's some decent places to go. I quite like it at Greenwich, with the cutty sark and the little resarutants and the market. Also walking along...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Chesterfield Match Thread 1st Jan 2018

    I hesitate to call it poor today... after all, we won, kept a clean sheet, and moved up to the autos... so I'll call it "scrappy" instead. But we did enough, and wouldn't have begrudged us a 2nd at the end (really should have taken at least one of those chances if we could make good decisions...

    We’ve Done better than I thought if I’m honest

    Most definitely. I'm sure we all hoped for a successful season, buts let's face it, we had no idea what might happen, so I'd snap your hands off for a guaranteed playoff spot. Although I'm slightly concerned that the prevailing attitude from City fans over the past few years, seems to be that...

    Police yesterday

    Never been to Carlisle Utd but have been to one of their "derbies" at PNE and it was certainly quite lively.

    City fan accused of betting scam

    I have, quite unwillingly, done similar before.... watching a stream of a game and a penalty is awarded, so bet on them as 'next team to score'..... the bet was paid out and then later recalled. Bastards. Although admittedly no more than a fiver, it's not like I was whacking 20 grand on it....

    Coventry, City of Culture 2021

    Sometimes I have music when I'm on a training run, not usually down the canal though, as can't hear the cyclist approaching behind you. Although that wasn't really an issue yesterday! The main hazards yesterday were getting round the fallen/overhanging trees which seemed to have been brought...

    Coventry, City of Culture 2021

    I'm quite a dedicated Fell-runner so a few inches of snow is not too much of an issue.... that's not to say it wasn't hard work, but certainly easier than hoofing it up and down mountains...

    Coventry, City of Culture 2021

    I went for a run today, got on the Cov canal at the back of Bedworth Miners Park, along past the Greyhound, Ricoh, Foleshill, down to the canal basin, lap round the city centre, and back up Longford/Foleshill roads. Must admit the canal looked really nice in the snow. Usually looks pretty grim...

    I think he's more than entitled to his opinion (even if it is clearly bollocks) It's when they can't understand why they get called out on it that bewilders me...
