Was that the night someone climbed on the stage, then as the bouncers approached he just dropped off backwards into the crowd ~ and everyone moved out the way ?

I was the bloke in the big leather hat

I'd forgotten that one - I was sat right at the front and got trampled when Freddie Mercury came on stage !

It was the night it was recorded - still no royalties. :( I can tell you that the lady from Curved Air performed commando that night, and she was a natural blonde ! I was right in the front row - feet under the stage, and when she twirled......

Every time I drive past where The Radford used to be I have to smile. The road in is called Otter View. :o

Nobody loves us ~ they all hate us ~ :rolleyes:

Coventry City Council would struggle to justify using tax payers money to invest in a loss making facility. Which is what it remains at the moment. As someone who does pay council tax in Coventry I was against the council getting involved in the first place. Admittedly the stadium and...

Female fans upset by "dance like a girlie" competition.

Of course we'd be so much better off with someone like Arthur Scargill in charge. :thinking about: Or maybe Bob Crowe, couple of fine left wing characters there.

Oh no - I'm just saying we don't truly have a democracy - just enough of one to keep the simple minded one reasonably content. Just occaisionally something causes an uprising and people actually use thier heads to vote.

Yes very good - however I meant that there have been many questions over Mr Robinson's activities down the years, yet he has still been elected - I am saying that in most seats the winner is known in advance, thus Tony Blair's son being lined up for a Coventry seat. The conservative party wins...

Shucks. :o

Yeah - like we have so much ability to effect things now - who voted for a coalition ? We give up our freedom for the right to mark a cross on a piece of paper once every 5 years. In reality government is decided by the few constituencies that actually can change. I've had Robinson for years...

The reason we failed was that we had a manager who judged players by his opinion on their ability and not their performance - dropping Roussell when it was obvious him and Keane had an understanding, buying Bellamy as a striker - he is an attacking midfield player, playing Hadji as a striker...

I played darts for The Golden Cross for many years so got to a lot of pubs round the City, also played for The Greyhound, The Shepherd & Shepherdess, and The Royal Warwicks at various times.

Some of you seem to forget that even in the Premiership our gates struggled to make 20,000.

I must have drunk in every one of these pubs. Did most of my drinking in town, used to go in the Alhambra when Don Fardon kept it, lunchtimes from school. The silver Sword used to open at half five so that was first stop after a match, then we found the 7 stars (I think) up by The Old Stag...

Wouldn't mind making the trip across town for this one.

Just unlucky I guess.
