    They could be relegated to league 2 today, I remember them being in the premier league and having players like Mustapha Hadji and Youssef Chippo, They also had Robbie Keane as well, Now, I can't name one player from their team.

    They deserve to be where they are because of their ****ing God horrible "Tottenham or Chelsea" dirge song.

    I think Cov fans' plan was to somehow send the opposition team and fans to sleep by singing this one **** song over and over through the game.

    That and it's a **** hole.

    Always thought of them as a modern day Mau Ure.

    Sad to see a club like that in such a state. Feel for fans in situations like this. Glad they had a nice win at Wembley this year though.

    Also feel very lucky as SISU nearly bought us before Markus came along <yikes>

    I went to see Arsenal away at Highfield Rd in the 80's. Horrible place with zero atmosphere and a ****ing pain in the arse to get to.
    Unless you live in Coventry I suppose.

    Horrible place full of horrible ****s. Hope they're kicked out of the rugby ground they're going to and forced to play at that atrocious Ricoh warehouse forever in non-league. ****s.

  16. Not wanting to put words in your mouth, Chief, but is he being a ridiculous bell-end, again?

    There's always room for more quotes in my sig, see.

  17. Coventry, Leeds, Wolves, QPR, Blackburn... Go back far enough, and there'll be old-timers who will remember when Preston NE were a major force in English footy.

    Touch a nerve tubbs? The Mekong is seven hours drive from me and is far from being a ****hole. Maybe you mistook it for Manchester?

    I'm talking about the whiskey thick, washed up, alchies like you drink. The Thai equivalent of Buckfast.

    The **** hole I was referring to is obviously Coventry but you're too dull to spot that.

    So much to learn Tubby the beverage you are referring to is called Lao-cal which is akin to Japanese rice wine.
