We don't moan enough on here..... (1 Viewer)

[skybluegod]

Shepherding the ball out: it's just obstruction.

Not giving foul throws.

"High feet": the game is called football

People who shout "forward!"

Kids who kick the back of your seat or sing shit songs at inappropriate times in a high pitched voice.

People who spot their mate across the ground, always with a shitty nickname, then spend five minutes shouting at them.

I must sit next to you every game, because that would be my exact list.

Also would have to add from Tuesday night mispronouncing names, like tooguy, or calling George Thomas- Georgie like you are besties...

No, "beee-van" was the best. All through the game, even after he went off the they said it on the tannoy.

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

Cov fans that can't seem to come to terms with the fact that the likes of Burton, Brentford, Bournemouth, Huddersfield etc. are in a higher league than us and therefore are more attractive options to players.

 

[Houchens Head]

Pundits who use the phrase 'the likes of...'
eg They say United have got the likes of Rooney and Ibrahimovic up front, when in fact it is actually them and not players who are like them!

And pundits who say "Your Rooneys, your Gerrards, your Beckams...." As if there's a whole ferkin' crowd of them playing!

 

[Houchens Head]

Yes, no one complained until 1985, I read that in a history book somewhere.

Yes, shmmeee, those were the days. We were much happier back then. Then someone moaned about something or other and it just snowballed from there!

Or, 'oh jj10' is playing tonight

 

[ajsccfc]

Speaking of shirt numbers, I can't get on with Clarke playing centreback and wearing 7.

 

[ceetee]

Commentators who say " Denied by the woodwork"
If you hit the post you have missed the target. All the ball over all of the line and all that.

People who moan when Bigi passes backwards but clap when Stevenson does it

 

[SkyBlueCoco88]

Substitutions that the off going player walks as slow as possible across the entire length of the pitch to waste time.

I remember playing Palace at home and Clinton Morrison was playing for them, their manager (think it was Dowie) called him over to pass on instructions and he proceeded to sprint to the far corner by the telegraph stand, did his laces and then his number came up to be subbed off. I've never seen anyone walk off a pitch so slow in my life!

 

[dongonzalos]

Young loan players from other clubs. Starting ahead of our own.
Then when it turns out they are no better than our own.
We stick with them. Depriving our own of valuable playing time.

 

[withnail]

Players sticking their tongues out or sucking their thumbs when they score.

Commentators saying players are "taking on water" rather than just having a drink.

Yeah, that should only be used when your boat is sinking.

 

[Wheelfass]

I don't like cyclists who ride their bikes on the road after dark without lights.

 

[withnail]

Players shielding their mouths when discussing their master plan for a free kick.

I blame sisu

Never seen any. By the way have you noticed all the bumps in the road these days!

Usually on the bus so haven't noticed.

I blame sisu

I have written to them pointing out my concerns and they are considering a court action against the owners of all cyclists on the roads of Coventry.

 

[Alan Dugdales Moustache]

Footballers who wear their socks over their knees. Someone at some point was the first person to do it and worse still some other tosser though it looked good.

I agree and think that it was all started by George Best wearing his shirt on the outside of his shorts. Shocking.

 

[shmmeee]

Fucking top knots

 

[Wheelfass]

Fucking top knots

What on earth are they all about and are they always worn by top-cocks.

 

[skybluedan]

Fucking top knots

I thought a top knot was one of them small turbans

 

[Irish Sky Blue]

Pundits who say "he was touched so he was entitled to go down". I always thought being tripped was an involuntary action.

Players who are touched and go down

Taking the ball into the corner to waste time. As we are usually losing it affects us more than most teams/fans.

People standing at away games in the front few rows of the stand. If you want to stand at least leave the first few rows for those who want to sit.

"Angry" goal celebrations, players who look like they want to rip your head off even though they have done a joyous thing in scoring a goal.

 

[Warwickhunt]

People lining their pockets at the expense of genuine football fans! That's not just SISU either. My religion on Saturday has been fucked! I used to like going to the football going for a drink before the game seeing friends discussing the match, watch the game feeling a bit of passion raging at the Ref, blaming every bastard apart from the players, having a pie and a pint half time. going back into the pub after the game have a drink discuss the match getting a bit heated over the conversation etc.

What do I do now? Go to the pub no fucker there cos they stopped going, go to the match sit like a zombie as the result does not effect me anymore, cannot be asked to cus the ref , don't have any food because it looks and taste like shite . Go straight home after the game, snapping at the misses, Some c**t has stolen my religion

 

[Wheelfass]

Trying to keep this footy related..........
Car drivers who park up on the way to the game and open their door without checking to see if there's anything coming.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Well maybe we do but this thread is for the minute, tiny little things that get your back up about Cov or football in general, I'm talking minor things that probably wouldn't annoy anyone else in the world so not like "SISU".

Mine is Burge, kicking the post, he does it constantly, like 250 times a game and every time he does it I want to back hand him ! I'm not even sure why it annoys me so much ! I'd understand it if it was to genuinely clean his boots but it seems to be a bit of a tweak for him.

Another one is fans thinking they're a better fan than another because they go to more games. There's two fellas that sit behind me that constantly spent the entire game saying "he wasn't here last week", last year when we were playing well it was a nightmare "look at them look, over there, their not here every week, only turn up when we're winning" they spend more time discussing how many folks are at the game than they do watching it !

So what annoys you lot ?

Yes I've noticed Burge doing this, it's as if he is trying to blame his shit kicking on having a few blades of grass on the bottom of his boots.

Animated advertising hoardings.

Any footballer on Twitter.

Players advertising their twitter account on the animated advertising hoardings during a game in which they're playing (Pogba today).

No!? Did that actually happen?

 

[withnail]

Yep, the world really has come to this. I wonder if he tweeted about the penalty he gave away.
