    FA Cup Semi Final Draw

    I was at OT in 85 as well in those seats. Police were absolute tossers that day - United fans around us weren’t any better either.

    Match Thread West Bromwich Albion - Coventry City Match Thread - Friday 1st Mar

    In my memory we were wearing the chocolate kit. We were standing near the front of the terrace and decided to leave at 5-1. They scored another 2 goals as we were making our way out. We had a really good team out that day as well.

    Our support vs Preston

    In 50 years of watching football I don’t ever recall seeing a free kick given for a foul kick off before - summed up the evening for me….

    Wish TM all the best too. Met him at the kids Christmas party a few years ago and he was a decent bloke.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Leicester City Match Thread - Saturday 13th Jan

    Just had a look at one of their forums - my God I knew they were deluded but they are taking it to new levels tonight. Apparently the challenge of Bidwell was only a yellow card at the worst. Can you imagine one of our players making a challenge like that on one of theirs at the New Filbert...

    FA CUP 4TH ROUND DRAW - MONDAY 19:50 (ish)

    Was that the game Dion equalised and the locals went very quiet? Great atmosphere at the end between us all but I’m sure it wouldn’t have been so friendly if we had scored another😀

    Boxing day roll call

    My wingman can’t go tomorrow because of a family arrangement so my youngest daughter will be with me in Block 1. Eldest daughter is gutted as she is in panto @ Oxford Playhouse.

    Sunderland Fan In Peace

    I have been a Cov fan for over 45 years- having confidence about our chances isn’t a feeling I have experienced very often and usually when I have felt that way I have been bitten in the arse. Short answer - no!

    Home attendances

    No that was in 1984 - iirc it was Bobby Gould’s team and Raddy Avramovic and he hardly played for us again.
