[TinFoilHat]

ITV4 for Coventry V Maidstone.

Patronising cunts.

 

[Nellies left peg]

ITV4 for Coventry V Maidstone.

Patronising cunts.

Especially as we had England v Austria on Friday for a meaningless women’s friendly on itv1 last Friday with a crowd of 700

 

[ShorehamCitizen]

ITV4 for Coventry V Maidstone.

Patronising cunts.

BBC South East area covering this in a really annoying way (making a fuss out of a cardboard FA cup for example), there's even a clock in the top right of the screen counting down to kick off.

 

[ShorehamCitizen]

Bunch of choir boys on the local news singing a song to the tune of three lions to wish Maidstone luck.

The South East.. Capital of Cringe.

 

[give it to gordon]

Come on Maidstone ! Supporting MUFC tonight

Thought the skins/undergarments had to be the same colour as your shirt ? Maidstone are black !

 

[jimharri]

So much for the "plucky little Maidstone" narrative.

 

[I'm not really here]

So much for the "plucky little Maidstone" narrative.

To be fair this was the most likely scenario

 

[ShorehamCitizen]

All that pre-match hype the local BBC News made, waste of time.

Enjoyed their night out I guess!.

 

[give it to gordon]

To be fair this was the most likely scenario

Particularly when Maidstone just pass to the Coventry players to score

 

[jimharri]

To be fair this was the most likely scenario

Yeah, I realise that. I was referring to the line the media were peddling. I suppose everyone loves an underdog, I guess.

 

[dronefromsector7G]

The most miserable hat trick celebration ever

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

This Coventry side are tearing the opposition apart.
I bet they'd do really well if they could get into the PL.

Amazing how they’re thrashing a team from four divisions below them

Sky blue shirts and their fans have a good traditional song. What's not to like about Coventry? :-)

And they gave us Tommy Hutch and Bobby Mac back in 1980. Top club.

The fact they attacked City fans in the North Stand, the fact that some cov **** robbed my City silk scarf from my wrist at Highfield Road when I was 10.
The fact Jimmy Hill is a cheating bastard (v Bristol City 1978 that sent Sunderland down).

And more reasons.

And Perry Suckling for David Phillips.....

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Top club.

Fuck off.

 

[jimharri]

Fuck off.

You didn't say please.


And I was right about Bobby and Tommy.




No; not Cannon and Ball.
