Demitri_C Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I think the rivalry from our end anyway has died down a lot since the premier league days. Most have forgotten who they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbull Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Wasps have released a statement saying Cov pulled out of negotiations. Strange lot, the Sky Blues. Their owners are a bunch of shysters that they're basically stuck with, so Wasps are the easy target. Many of their fans drive, or are driven in a bus with flavoured windows, by the Ricoh everyday, it must wind (or wind ) them up terribly. Having seen some of the vandalism and the graffiti directed at Wasps at the stadium in areas where children could see it, when they played there, I hope they stay at the sty for good, because there is no way on earth that a stadium will be built if SISU are anything to do with it.

useless Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Presumably they think it's funny but seems irresponsible to me and sets a bad example, and reflects badly on them all round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Wonder if that guy who famously held up the "we'll be back" banner at VP is still alive. 20 years next May since that hilarious afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted December 11, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted December 11, 2020 Possibly the least classy thing I've ever seen. And this from a supporter of a club who once had a director who compared David Gold to a pig needing to be wrestled in mud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 To be fair, I laughed like a drain at 'Songs Of This Christmas' (and actually, it's now time to fire that video up again). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a former Door supervisor as it's now pronounced or should I say Bouncer as some of you may not know the new name for it, before Covid came along and David Cameron's broken Britain, clubs started to close down. Much of it in Sheffield was due to fighting also, as new rules and regulations got updated once the SIA licence came in, any club who has police called out on them for more than ten times in a so many month period faces closure and must change the doorman. I worked on a club Asian owned but Black folk and mixed races people came in to the club, they did not get along one bit, every week trouble, us doormen would be in the middle of a war, club was shut down with a year. I then moved across the road and Same thing happened there and I think I may have been the final resting place for that club as three lads tried dragging a woman off at end of the night, 8 man door team and not one of them helped me, let just say she got away alright they didn't although had my nose broke out of it lol. Every city has its tits and rocket polishers or complete disgusting sorry excuses for human life. recently i started my course to get my SIA Licence back again, I do miss making people feel safe and be on the look out for those types I can't stand Anyway back to the football, yeah Coventry seems to be much further away than what our three main Midlands rivals are, they still on the inside of the Midlands though but they are not like they used to be are they? Some of those rivalries back then though helped in someway make football the game it is today. I'm sure if Coventry entered the prem you guys who are feeling the no way now would soon be feeling old feelings pop back up and soon feel it as your in the stands trading insults again as though it were the 90s all over again lol. I think you've taken my comment a bit too literally. It was just a cheap joke about the lyrics of Ghost Town which was written about Coventry. I thought I'd take the "why do Cov hate us so much" chat into the Coventry thread before @limpid blows a fuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YLN Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Wow fair play. I think Aloisi and Boateng scoring twice each to beat us 4-1 was one of my most upsetting days watching football. Robbie Keane going there for £6 million was such a bold move at the time but it worked out pretty well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
