That's what I suspected, and fair enough if you're from the south coast!

I went to Uni in Leicester - a 4 hour drive south from where I lived - and was consistently told I was still in the north. The fact that it was the middle of "The Midlands" clearly wasn't enough of a clue to people. I'd never heard of the Watford Gap services until I was an adult and lots of Londoners told me it's where the North starts - I tried to explain that if it's close enough to the south that lots of southerners know it and no northerners do then it's maybe not a good measure

 

Oh really? I've been to Coventry but only from Leicester and only know it's kind of west of there.

 

I've actually been at games where we've sung 'dirty Northern bastards' when we're playing someone like Reading

 

1-1 since we scored we seem to have stopped. It's a fair score-line so far.

 

Absolutely... it's potential with Fatawu ... Mavididi has much better stats ... but best thing we have is the squad depth ... quality competition for every place ... it's a long season in the Championship with the games coming thick and fast ...

 

Coventry is a **** hole. You'd think the Luftwaffe were still bombing it if you walked around the place.

 

Sorry but is this the fuking championship board?

No

So **** off

 

Only been to the ground which is someway out of the centre but I've heard similar.

Most big towns and cities in the Midlands are dire tbh. Easily the worst part of the country with their dreary accents and ****holes everywhere.

 

My Fred my rules

Feel free to start a prem only match fred. Let me know when you hit 12k pages yeah

 

Newcastle awarded a penalty for a no contact dive

 

Newcastle penalty

 

That looks very soft. Think it wont be given.

ps. I've only seen it once but surprised at that being given, I don't think it should have. Very, very soft and I'd be unhappy if it was against my team. Want to see that again.

 

It has been. VAR is ruining the game.

Yeah because what some random on a forum says will directly affect the game won’t it

 

Yes it will
Football gods lol

 

Pen or no that ?

 

Had mates in Cov and went out there a few times in the 80s - was different level to Leicester and Nottingham that have some nice historic parts - probably down to it being bombed in the war, the rebuild of the centre was a concrete monstrosity- was rough as **** and we nearly got into a brawl with the very aggressive local neanderthals on more than one occasion ... Ghost Town by The Specials was about the Coventry of those times ...

 

That's why I have no problems saying that this season is Tottenhams to lose, a couple more results and you have it in the bag. I cannot see any other outcome.
