Chris Birchall. He looked great during the world cup before we signed him. Have to be honest, I regretted having it done before I left the club shop.

I still see the Keane one at some matches - i don't think anyone should have any regret great player destined for higher things and he did ! Can understand the Bellend and Hughes getting binned though - not sure many brought shirts in the Wilderness years !!! Still see the odd Konjic as well which is great although my own shirt of that era is a body odour trap after 10 mins of wearing :eek:

I have had a few names on the back Dublin,Boateng and Hadji some sort of pattern forming there, this year I would have Collins and hope he follows the same route.

I think in the mid 90s it was about 75p a letter for the name or am I making that up . It was obviously more for the premier league badge on the sleeve . So it was Allways better to go for a shorter name . That’s another question all together longest and shortest names who have played for Coventry . Don’t think you can beat ng at Cardiff

Had Dublin on my shirt when I was a mascot, the man himself loved it and put extra effort in showing us around Highfield Road.

Gone a few weeks later and never trusted a player enough again.

Did he show you the stairs leading up to the boardroom?

I had Daish on the classic Le Coq Sportif home kit-he got injured the game after and never really played again 🫤

Scored a screamer for us at the Ricoh I seem to vaguely recall

Pretty sure there used to be a shop in Bedworth that used to sell the shirts with misprinted names. I probably had a couple from there back in the day but no idea what was on them. Probably rocking about with a goalkeeper top with Wegere on or something.

Ward 5 is probably the worst one I have from 08/09.

Currently in storage with many others.

only ever had 3

Dublin - he left days later and shirt was binned and never worn
Keane - no regrets as he went on to bigger things and not Aston Villa (we ignore that loan it was 12 years later)
Konjic on the red and white striped away ajax looking kit
