    RIP Tom Finney

    Just looked at the PNE official site which confirms the news. Making official statement tomorrow. BBC haven't picked up on it yet! A true legend! Was the oldest living international after Bert Williams died.

    Worst Games

    Just remembered a non City game which I had to share! In the 80s I think - Leicester v Wolves (Div Two)- only went to see Steve Bull who was scoring for fun and had been called up for England. He got sent off 1st half - match finished 0-0!!

    Best Games

    Obvious ones already mentioned but also remember the 4-3 v Man City when David Thompson was on fire! Every time we scored they equalised. Preston at home when we were 4-0 up after 20 minutes. Both games at HR in early days of Championship or was it Div One then! And the 6-1 v Derby (1st season...

    Worst Games

    Could fill a number of pages with this thread, having watched Cov for over 40 years but ones that spring to mind are Lge Cup 2nd Rd 2nd leg v Walsall lost 0-3 having won the away leg. Any match at Rochdale! Sutton Utd, Northampton, Palace at home in the Champ (0-4, 2-4) The 1-5 home and away v...

    Jake Cassidy

    Another one slipping through the net. Set to complete another loan move to Tranmere this week. One of the main reasons they topped the league last season before Xmas, then plummeted when he went back to Wolves.

    Arsenal Allocation Rules

    Won't be an issue. I've talked to a number of people who would have gone but who aren't now because it's a Friday, same as we didn't sell out for Wimbledon. Been to all away games except Shrewsbury but my son is working so, as we went to Emirates last season, we'll give this one a miss. I think...

    Cov Vs Arsenal on the friday Night - 24 Jan

    Horrible night to go down to London. Remember too well the four hours it took to get to Wimbledon and, by all accounts, we were quicker than most!! Groaned when I heard the draw but at least thought we'd see the Emirates by daylight this time. Aaargh!!!

    Does Anyone Remember 'Happy' and His Regular Coach to Away Games?

    Remember Happy well. Used to go on his coach with a mate in the late 70s Stopping at a pub on the way and again on the way back! I was only 16/17 at the time! Didn't get involved with any boot boys although I seem to recall that not everyone always got the coach back (prob got arrested!!) Fairly...

    FA Cup Away Games - Best / Worst Memories

    Went to many of the above games. Best has to be the Leeds semi-final for the sheer tension. The roof went off when Micky Gynn equalised! Worst - Sutton Utd (although in a strange way you're almost proud to say 'I was there') Northampton (never stopped raining- thoroughly miserable day) and...

    Big changes afoot

    Wouldn't surprise me if we virtually sold out first game back (if we ever get back!) My wife only said the other day 'Make sure you get me a ticket for the 1st game back' and she only goes once every year or so! After that, depends whether we are still pushing for play offs or meandering around...

    FA ticket madness

    Anyone who has ever bought tickets from CCFC will have a customer no. You can add Friends & Family to your own details online if you know their numbers and get tickets for each one. I've just got tickets for me and my son. We usually get memberships rather than season tickets as we don't go to...

    How Many To Bradford?

    Got our tickets for the top tier. Remember last time I went to Bradford Steve Staunton blasted a penalty virtually out of the ground. Should be a good game. Bradford not won in 5 but will be tough up there.

    24-19-13-12...4th place

    Would actually be 6th behind LO, Wolves, Posh, Preston and Brentford. If the 10 pts deduction were spread throughout the season (1pt deducted every 4.6 games) we would have 26/27 pts Wouldn't be surprised if that were the top 6 at the end of the season. Only other likely candidates would be...

    Northampton

    Certainly does not offend me! In the circumstances, the most important thing is using your time doing what you want to do and any one else's opinion doesn't matter. Go and enjoy it!
