  1. Rebekah?
  2. Also it has to be when the ball is played, and a millisecond difference in when the still image is taken could change the result. With the Chilwell one iirc you could just see the ball moving. Take it a millisecond earlier and he may have been onside. I'm actually quite annoyed about it even though it's Cov. Would have been one of the great moments in FA Cup history. Probably helps I don't know any Cov fans...
  3. The thing about the Chillwell one is that he was right in line with the camera and both he and Soyuncu were basically standing on the 18 yard line, so although it was cm he was clearly off. I think the Cov player was offisde, but I don't think you can be 100% sure with that camera angle and two players standing quite far apart just inside the half.
  4. I think you've partially made my point - we get everything they do because our population and our media is fixated on America. Like the BLM stuff of 2020. So just shove all American politics and social issues on the backpages, bottom of the websites, very last segment of the TV news, and job done. Although to be fair I think the trans obsession is quite home grown. I also don't believe what happens in the US affects us anywhere near as much as people think it does. Irish, French, German elections probably influence life in Britain more than US elections do and get 10% of the coverage. The idea that we are very close socially and politically to the 'Anglosphere' has done real damage to the UK in recent years, and that idea is spread partially because of language but also because of the amount of coverage America gets. So I'm with Alan Partridge, stop talking about American things.
  5. There's only three things that really disgust me: my last pint, what I'm reading right now, and people who put things in the wrong thread
  6. American politics and society. It's 4000 miles away I don't care.
  7. Trans issues. How people care so much about it is beyond me.
  8. Everything is political though.
  9. They're good for kids. I loved them when growing up.
  10. Taylor Swift. Social media football banter. Star Wars.
  11. I don't totally disagree with this. Some of the decisions this year have been scandalous and could affect the league in quite significant ways - Liverpool as much as I hate them might lose the league because of the **** up at Tottenham. Neville and Carragher were not completely wrong today in their post match discussions about it, but I am sure if some similar decisions had gone against United or Liverpool they would be more supportive of clubs taking a stance.
  12. Sorry I misunderstood your post and thought you meant the LCFC vs Cov rivalry had a sectarian element.
  13. Would be interested to hear more about this.
  14. Jammy United as ever
  15. I've heard some scummy stuff from ours to be fair, including some 'jokes' about the Holocaust at Spurs
  16. I just can't hate VAR because of Chilwell
  17. **** what a shame
  18. Ok now looks on
  19. Looked offside
  20. Whatever we think of the fans, unbelievable performance from the Coventry team. Heroes.
  21. Commentators sound disappointed
  22. it is never over
  23. I drink it and don't think it's immoral or anything I'm just saying it's understandable people don't like the beer or the brand very much.
  24. Absolutely thousands of them! Looks like there are at least four second names in the whole crowd today.
  25. Up the Cov
