And for biting nails!

And talking of flying bananas, whatever happened to goalies wearing contrasting colours? Was yesterday the second time this season that an away keeper has been allowed to wear red at The Wham?

Outback Ozzie - are you joking about the ref? He had a great game, let the match flow, got most decisions spot on.

We were all saying on the way out, best ref weve had this season.

They were also impressed with the noise offered by a small home crowd. Makes a refreshing change to get a billy big nuts club who appreciate tiny tinpottery and the efforts our club make to compete

So you think it's acceptable to throw a bottle onto the pitch that missed our keeper by inches ?
Adios.

sorry but I don;t think Billy nor Kayden would share your point of view both took a hammering yesterday with no protection from the referee

Where exactly has Macca said it's "acceptable to throw a bottle on the pitch"?

Surely he was talking about the Coventry fans in general, not one idiot, so stop trying to twist his words.

Quite sure I said "it would seem they were well behaved"

Obviously no I dont think it's acceptable.

Are you tarnishing 1500 fans as bad uns because one threw something? Bear in mind one of ours threw a pie at Danny Hylton last week (missed and hit Seamus)

Bonsoir

I thought you were refraining from posting on here again? Couldn't resist could you, ya little tinker

Accybeme - I'll agree that Billy didn't get a free kick every time he fell down like he normally does.

It is a part of Billy's game he could without. If you go to ground to easy and are seen by the officials then you will get nothing. It is almost cheating, Billy does not need to do that, He can hold up and lay off with the best of them. Half a chance and he will score. We could do with more rotation of players instead of relying on the same strikers in particular each week. Hayden was not fully fit for the Coventry game and maybe should have been subbed at half time. However we got 3 valuable points.
