About as soft as the fighting down the blaze
Like to see how long you last in one of those "soft" fights.
Just cause there on skates doesn't mean it doesn't hurt you know?

Starting to see why this childish show suits them
Didn't know that. I've heard a few people in Cov say the lead singer has a bit of a ego on him...any idea if that's true?

Toms a class act, their new album is the dogs bollocks, Soccer am should be called Football am cause we are not fucking yanks! :claping hands:

not as good as it was but its fun to watch with my daughter. Tom Clarke is a nob... And it wasn't fame that made him this way. All three of their albums are boil-in-the-bag indie by numbers, but their first was catchy. Soccer, I believe, derives from England.

Americans didn't come up with the word soccer, the English did.

Yep, from Association Football.
However the Yanks don't really use their feet much, so should drop the foot part of football for thier game.

Remind me in what part of Birmingham they have Coventry accents?
He was born there but has spent his formative years in Cov, supports the football team and cares about the city. Doesn't seem like that is enough for some people. The other two are from Cov and Kenilworth. Proper Brummies eh.
I think they're OK, just makes me laugh how anyone well known from this City who supports the football club gets stick from the other fans - same with Keys and Gaunt.

I used to watch Soccer AM when it first came out years ago. It was a decent show, a good laugh (just couldn't stand Tim "I love me" Lovejoy). No longer have Sky, so haven't seen it for years, but caught a bit of it when at a mates house recently. Yep. It's crap.
As for the Enemy, I know Liam the drummer's dad. His name is Martin and used to work for a company called Optilan, who were based in Kenilworth at the time. I believe the family are from that area.

I used to watch Ministry of Mayhem on Saturday mornings when i was 24, though only for Holly Willoughby.
Hey, there's nothing wrong with some old fashioned 2D cartoons... or Holly

Because gaunt is a cock, i have nothing agains keys!
I only said 1 of them was actually a cov fan! All this "i am a massive cov fan i have supported them for 3 or 4 years" just seems a bit fake.

Nothing wrong with the Enemy, they are very good at what they do, I don't understand all the crap they get ? For me anything that puts Coventry on the map is good, by the way I'm off to see them at the Leamington Assembly on Thursday night and it WILL be Banging.

Wasn't their second album mostly slagging off Coventry? Anyway, that's besides the point as they're not very good.
I remember them being at Godiva Festival at the peak of their popularity. Art Brut were on before them. I was down the front really looking forward to Art Brut and the whole way through their (excellent) set a bunch of idiot kids were shouting for The Enemy and asking me, 'who the f*ck are these w***ers?'. I'm pretty sure a chant of 'who the f***ing hell are you?' went up at one stage.
God, I hate them.
They should have been consigned to the 'indie' scrapheap along with Milburn and Hard-Fi long ago.

Leamington Assembly? Sounds like they alreay have! Their first album had some decent enough lad pop songs but since then, they've just repeated themselves. I wouldn't have listened to them if they weren't from Cov, so why should I worship them because they are? They repeatedly use the fact they're from Cov to promote their "working class" background and its simply disrespectful!
Plus their statement that there are "no other good musicians in Coventry"
Oh and by the way, we were already on the map for music long before they heard their first Jam song.

They are hardly working class, haha!!
I agree, they are dire....nothing more than a teenage pop band.

Amazes me how how people think that they have to be good merely because they are Cov fans.
If The Enemy didn't have any links to Cov at all would anybody rate them at all?
Doesn't stop people being a cock merely because they are Cov fans.
