You can go back and re live three of your favourite Coventry matches. What three would you choose to go and experience again.

Think mine would be: (after much deliberation)

FA Cup Final (obviously)
Notts County play off semi (away)
Coventry vs Derby (final game at Highfield road)


What’s your three?

Exactly the same as the opening post for me, but this time I'd make sure Dad was with us at eth play-off semi-final as only me and my daughter went.

Oh and I'd want to be older for the 87 final too so I could have a drink, as I was only 14.

Difficult, but first thoughts:

Cov 4 Spurs 3 (86-87)
Cove 3 Man Utd 2 (97-98)
Notts Co 1 Cov 4 (play off last season)

Based on excitement and atmosphere

Coventry 3 - West Ham 2 LC semi 1981 - most incredible atmosphere at HR
Notts County 1 - Coventry 4 play off semi second leg - what a perfect night
Coventry 3 - Chelsea 2 - always love opening days of the season full of hope and this was extra special with late Dublin goals

Yeah, the 3-2 against West Ham is a good call
 
As others have mentioned so many to pick from! Away games maybe both the cup win and then 4-1 triumph at Villa park, plus the cup win at Anfield.
Home wins have to be from HR: The Derby 6-2 game, 4-3 against Spurs in '86 and 3-0 whipping of Villa before the fog descended:)

Coventry 3 - West Ham 2 LC semi 1981 - most incredible atmosphere at HR - Another great a call - remember at half time looking around at people in shock and then somebody started the Sky Blue song - Goose Bumps is all I can say.

FA Cup 1/4 Final at Sheffield - Leppings Lane End packed, was in the middle pen, didn't see my mates after Cyril scored till halftime (they were only 10 yards away). The day I finally believed we would win it
Notts County 1 - Coventry 4 play off semi second leg - What a night, might be L2, but what a night and to share it with my father and Son - it's What it's all about
Villa Park Valentines Day - We finally did it, madness when that goal went it.

Loads to choose from but
My first game 5-4 v Norwich 77-78
Cup final 87
Play off final - to see a city team promoted for the first time in over 50 years with my son was a privilege.

Blackburn away 5-2 - Great call, weren't many of us there that night, but what a game!
I think about 200 of us, my mates dad drove and ended up with a parking ticket but he didn’t care, we thought we were getting spanked by that score when heading to the game.
John Williams destroyed them with that pace
