Their accent?...

 

[cov_george]

having to share the town with the vile

 

[skybluetom]

The fact that the current owners took a well run football club and completely destroyed it I imagine.

 

[lapsed_skyblue]

The prospect of having to play their home games at the Ricoh Arena?

 

[Houchens Head]

Because St Andrews is a crap ground?

A Manc was overhead using the term 'second City' and the Brummies took offence to it!

Anyone else hate that term?

It don't bother me. Birmingham is definitely a number 2 city if ever there was one.

No idea but it sounded like "Yam Yam Yam Yam, Yam Yam Yam Yam"

Probably something to do with Carson Yeung being allowed to own the club whilst spending more time in court than Pete Sampras and Peter Pannu conspiring with him to destroy the club.

the cov angle for this is ?

 

[georgehudson]

their protest was based around the principle that those raised, in & around b'ham, have,
'a spoich doifict '

strange thread on a ccfc forum

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

Of course its relevant after all they are our local club

You have to know that coventry is not in the West midlands nor the east midlands but bang smack in the middle and
has an accent that is exceedingly rare.
Unlike birmingham or leicester we (coventry) have a cathedral to spare, and we don't look in the bins for our dinner.
And a dead dog is not a treat :sarcasm:

TBH I know a fair few Blues fans and they are sound and also sympathetic to our situation. They hate Villa more than we do.. and have generally never been anti Cov. Even the Zulu's who rocked up a few years ago don't have a great issue with us. We are in the shit, they are not in a good place - is there anything wrong with clubs uniting over this? I fucking hate Villa, I detest them, but they are part of football history, I would sooner rather support their cause than support some absolute c!!nts who care nothing about the people of the west midlands, their history or anything else... That said - if we got Villa in the cup - this thread may have to be eradicated.

Bang on! We are - and always will be as far as I'm concerned - Coventry, WARWICKSHIRE! Stuff the horrible sounding Metropolitan "West Midlands"!
