Or on his verandah in Kenilworth, sipping Pimm's and wondering whether he should move or not.

This is a bit like somebody slagging of a member of your family, you defend him/her and won't allow anybody to attack them,even if deep down you probably agree with them. Like our football team,yes they do your head in and get on your tits, but if they get slagged off by someone not from Cov, you won't stand for it and stick up for them. Yes our city has it's shitty areas,I live in one, but so has all towns and cities !
Sad sad cunts
Oh this could be a treat!!
Typically they are indeed having another bash at Jimmy Hill and of course we HAD to have cheated.

Sad, pathetic little bunch aren't they.
To be fair I don't think the comment on 400 (it was nearer 600?) was meant in a 'not enough' type of way as I assume a couple of posters are judging it. There is the acknowledgement that our City was flattened but coupled with surprise I think that relatively so 'few' given the extent of devastation, lost their lives.Thatll tie in nicely with our return to the Premier league.
Things are looking up.
As for the 'only 400 died comment' , beyond contempt.
Hmm, I didn't read it that way. Happy to be proved wrong, but that struck me as a dig, as in, why all the fuss when just 400 died. Not comparable to Hamburg's loss.To be fair I don't think the comment on 400 (it was nearer 600?) was meant in a 'not enough' type of way as I assume a couple of posters are judging it.

Oh come on, rattles. You can do better than that! Something along the lines of - "Stanley Matthews, Josiah Wedgewood, James Bolam. Lauren Laverne, Dylan Thomas, Rob Brydon, My Grandad (RIP) and er, Bob". "Your Cities took a hell of a beating, a hell of a beating" !Stoke,Sunderland,Swansea, Paisley, we gave you all one hell of a beating !
There will be lots I believe. Free concerts and events and theatre performances.Fair play to the city and all concerned with the bid. My relationship with the city is at arms length most of the time now but I’m made up that something like this is happening to the city of my birth. If there are a few decent events it might even tempt me to visit more often.
It's all rather pathetic isn't it.the mackems pain makes it all the more sweeter.
ha ha 17 pages of hate - fucking love it!
Yep and the nonsense of it all is all the people calling Coventry a shit hole.ha ha 17 pages of hate - fucking love it!
Let's hope this news means we finally make the most of areas such as these.e a wander round the cathedral ruins and the transport museum and St. Mary's Guildhall etc.
I'm sure we will. Think there is now finally a turnaround in the thinking here. Been botched up so many times, but the city centre is transforming.Let's hope this news means we inally make the most of areas such as these.
Why not, everybody should love their City whether successive Councils have fucked it up or not, it is a fine City, we have not only suffered with most of our heritage being blasted to Smithereens we have also suffered at the hands of the Motor industry / manufacturing decline since the war ( after the initial boost) .It's good news for Coventry!
I'm hardly anywhere near the Otis level of love for the City and what's in it but if it brings better things like the Motor Museum, Herbert etc that people can enjoy then am all for it.

My only gripe is the lack of joined up thinking from the Council and also believe we have too many councillors who are only in the job as its a decent well paid career. E.G the city centre model, for years the council have been trying to improve it, while in the mean time allowing the building of out of town shopping parks, closing Woodlands school, to ensure the opening of Finham Park 2, now they are reconsidering opening Woodlands as the population models suggest there are not enough school places on that side of the City.
