The9 Posted 9 August, 2016 Share Posted 9 August, 2016 Just for the record: "29 MINS KEY EVENT Replay reveals We’ve seen a replay of the penalty incident and it looks like Bennett took a dive, minimal contact from Gadzhev from behind as the Pompey player raced into the box. We’re not allowed to put footage from the game in the live blog but on our Twitter account you’ll be able to see the foul. Very soft." Sayeth Coventry's local paper's live feed.

The9 Posted 9 August, 2016 Share Posted 9 August, 2016 Also, good luck waiting on an attendance figure, loads of stuff on the Coventry Telegraph's site about queues of an hour outside to buy tickets, and then them opening a cash turnstile just before kick off... away fan(s) not affected, but they'll probably take a while to work out the number who were there if they had an unexpected cash gate last-minute.

Highlight of my day was finding out last year's black away kit is getting another year of relevance, though why they couldn't play in the new white away shirt remains to be seen (I'm guessing it hasn't arrived yet).

I am typing this from under my duvet, scared to go outside due to the thought that I inhabit the same island and might meet that. I remember as a young lad having just found puberty. My mum's shopping catalogue was sexy, cartoon girls were sexy, anything that moved was sexy as long as I was thinking about a female......I think though, even as a freshly pubed -up lad, that pic would have given me nightmares and made me seriously reconsider my new found sexuality.
