Yes they were. However the English clubs are "closer to home" and have the potential to affect us directly. So my contempt for them is greater. I'm no fan of Real Madrid by any means.

However the fact that the Big6 tried to fuck the rest of the country off (CCFC included) and create a super league, does/did have potential to affect us directly. For that reason i hope they all get thraped in Europe.

That wasn't early 90's. More like mid 00's. I didn't get there until half time and we were a goal up. They missed a pen in the last minute. Coming out the ground a full can of beer missed my head by inches, thrown from within a large group of Cardiff fans who were waiting for us to exit...

Considering the hostility that SISU endured, and the general opinion of the Coventry public was that SISU should "fuck off", i think its a little rich to be expecting a gushing statement from her. As for Gary Pendry's Eyes statement above.... what an arsehole.

@Rich was that you running the Coventry Way today??? I went past a chap in a Northbrook t-shirt right by the entrance to the old Bedworth Rugby Club (i was going other way on an e-bike in a yellow top, hood up)..... Could swear it was you....?!? Midland Road Relays yesterday.... we had a...

For us it was Flying Standard, Forresters, Brewer & Baker, and possibly one in the Binley Oak. Remember standing in the garden of the Binley Oak on a gorgeous day before the Derby match, thinking this is the last time i'll ever have a drink here. We used to call the Forresters "the long &...

I tried to be realistic on that predictor.... drawing one of the "winnable" home games. Losing at Blackburn. Drawing at Boro last day of season. Winning most of the others... finishing on 72pts in 6th which was surprising, as i believe we'd fall short with 72pts.

We seemed to go incredibly quickly from a front two of Clarke Wilson, to a front two of Akpom and Delfonso, in a short space of time at Northampton. I was travelling there most weeks and saw some great high-scoring games.... then bought a half-season ticket around xmas time and i think we only...

Its a shit-hole.... Not saying you can't have a decent time there (i have in the past)..... but its an utter dump and i'll hopefully never go there again unless for football.

Still need to win 5 out of last 8 absolute minimum.... and probably a draw or two. Whilst i don't see us losing many.... i don't see us being clinical enough to put minimum 5 winnable games away.

I think this really hurt us and stopped us building momentum for even bigger crowds. "Only" 23000 at home to QPR on a nice day, 3-0 win. That could so easily have been 32000 coming back the next week.

Claiming that Coventry is everybody's "big day out" makes us sound like clowns (and is pretty inaccurate.... i'd say the only real draw we have as an away trip is the large allocation available).

Yeah that's awful. Non-league fan's favourite....

I personally much prefer traditional songs about the city, than songs idolising a specific player.

Sang at opposition keepers (i always remember it being sung at Thomas Mhyre most of all) Mhyre is his name, Myhre is his name, He stinks of piss he's got no mates, Mhyre is his name.

I remember hearing this in the 90s in the West Terrace on occasion.

Our tuesday night session at the Godiva/University track was a shambles... it was icing over before we started. Attempted our first 300mtr rep and it resembled a speed-skating race. So we went out onto the road to do the session. 15 x 300mtrs with 20 seconds rests. I was still recovering from a...

We like to see ourselves as a Leicester/Southampton/Norwich/Ipswich club in size and stature. We've had our problems, far more than most, but the simple fact is our crowds do not match up to those teams. Even Derby and Sheff Weds are getting 25k+ in the 3rd division, and Sunderland were getting...

Last time i did this was driving back from Hull away. Pulled in at a service station on the way home and was accosted by a minibus full of Scunthorpe "lads", who were heading over to me believing i was a Man CIty fan and worthy of a kicking. Once they found out i was a city fan and we'd just...

Raced on the fells yesterday at Church Stretton in Shropshire. For a local champs race there was a surprisingly strong lineup, so the aim was simply a pb, and a bonus would be breaking top 15. Due to it only being a short race (circa 50mins) i treated it like a cross-country race and went hard...
