    Or for Dennis Mortimer, who was forced to sign for Villa against his wishes.

    Of course Dion Dublin is a Coventry City legend, get over the joining Villa part and revel in the time he spent in our colors. Too long has passed to be holding such grudges.

    Context. Were Lovren and Lallana regulars or a David Fairclough? There is an argument that as Gini was just as important as Gerrard, not one I would subscribe to, Liverpool legend well yes in my opinion but in years to come.

    Absolutely a legend for Liverpool. Champions league winner and finalist, Premier, Super cup and World club cup winner. What is your definition? you are setting the bar high.

    Club Legends

    Mick Coop was a decent full back but a better penalty taker. Underrated and not often mentioned but a great servant to the club.

    Club Legends

    Find it hard to disagree with that choice, however if we are talking just players then I would go for: George Curtis, Tommy Hutchison, Dion Dublin, Steve Ogrizovic and Clarrie Bourton Managers only: Hill, Sillett, Robins, Milne and Cantwell

    Ashley Cain's daughter

    I get the cynicism but surely however unpalatable you think the Cain Family are, the real story is a baby was sick and eventually died, caught the imagination of the wider public and 1.6 million was raised to support her treatment and was used to pay for her funeral and now a foundation in her...

    Priority is a new keeper

    For the more senior amongst us. Funny you say that: back in the day we all agreed Glazier was better than Yashin. We also thought that Gibbo offered more than Eusebio and Wolves were about to beaten heavily. Yashin has a statue outside in the gardens of the national stadium in Moscow. I hear you...

    Bellamy transfer fiasco to Cov in 2000

    I carry no affection for Bellamy in the slightest, however.... As bad as Bellamy was for Coventry City do you really think he would down tools because HE signed for Coventry City? There was no gun pointed at his head and until Hartson arrived it was just the wrong fit, it happens. Do you really...

    Excuses...34 years in the top flight, actually it wasn’t a comparison just an observation from a fellow supporter. Now on to your salient point…34 years in the top flight is a massive achievement, much bigger than anything in our history and there Is an argument that we let the club down by not...

    I have been part of our away support for 53 years and yes the support is growing compared to the past but let’s be honest when you have been part of an half empty lower stand end at QPR or on one of two coaches going to Bramhall Lane for a top flight game or been one of 300 going to St Andrews...

    Sorry but since 2005 they have had rock solid support including in league one. I envy them.

    Our support is dreadful. You just can’t count on our fans to turn out like other clubs do. Yes we have been in the doldrums, yes we have plummeted but so did others. How I wish we had the rock solid support like Norwich, much smaller city and before the excuses are thrown back about how there is...

    Liam kelly

    Kelly would be the first name on my team sheet, in league two he was anchor we had missed for so long, in league one he gave us stability that allowed others to shine, in the championship we were simply better with him in the side. He doesn’t have pace therefore I can see him being around for a...

    Max

    Can't disagree with anything you stated there, however I suspect you are not in the Max camp. Biamou was bought as a back up player in league two and he has hung in and contributed to the point where he played as much as any forward. Walker is a languid chap and doesn't appear to enjoy the way...
