    John Sillett

    Butcher's first home game was a 1-0 loss to Liverpool. We might have sneaked a lucky 0-0 draw if he hadn't kicked the ball out of Oggy's hands straight to Beardsley who smashed it home. The Forest game was the week after

    The holiday thread I’ve

    They are tiny undercover nationalists, every one I manage to kill I say to it "take that Sturgeon!!" My Scottish wife doesn't get bitten as much as our son and me

    The holiday thread I’ve

    Doesn't work for me. I don't tend to put anything on to stop them and if I get bitten I spray the bite(s) with whatever I've got as it tends to stop the itching. I do spend a lot of time in doors if they are bad but luckily where we live isn't the worst place for them

    The holiday thread I’ve

    They've been around for about a month now and they're only going to get worse. I was told last week that eating a spoonful or marmite a day works but the problem with that is having to eat marmite.

    It's Never Too Late ?

    Just a few more acts need to come forward and we might be able to stage the inaugaral Sky Blues Talk Variety show. There has to be someone out there who missed out on their true vocation of event promoting?!

    Matchday programmes going?

    1 of the 2 away games I went to this season the club had printed 1 programme to cover 2 home games, pretty sure it was Carlisle as I don't remember seeing a programme at Accrington. Maybe this could be done instead to reduce printing costs etc

    Sunderland relegated haha

    I worked with a Sunderland season ticket holder in Southend for 3 years between 95-98 & he was not bitter about their relegation in 97 & never mentioned 77. I went with him when they played Southend away the following season & their fans were a great bunch. All their hatred was for Newcastle

    The Gigs Thread

    Just back from seeing Evanescence at the SEC Armadillo in Glasgow. Totally different concert with them backed by a full orchestra. What an amazing voice Amy Lee has?

    Other teams wearing sky blue kits!

    They're like magpies, the thieving bastards!!! The scarfs they now wear has a dark blue stripe like ours where it used to have a maroon stripe and "their" anthem, Blue Moon, was originally sung by Crewe. Is there nothing they won't steal?!

    Shit Coventry players

    He was very poor in his first 3 seasons and only in his last season was he close to the form he had at Leeds and subsequently at Liverpool. I think he was carrying an injury which he tried to play through and he eventually broke down in a home game (Spurs?) and ended up missing the 98 WC Finals...

    What are you currently listening to?

    I hadn't listened to it for over 20 years as I only had it on vinyl but since my wife bought me a record player I have been going through my vinyl albums. I was never really taken with Animals but have listened to it about 3-4 times. I have listened to Meddle twice but it's staying on a bit...

    Kids - do you 'make' them support Cov?

    Congratulations Weeman!! My son is 12 and has been with me to watch Coventry about 15 times and he takes a passing interest in how we are doing but nothing like I did at his age. All the kids in his class "support" Man Utd, Bayern, Barcelona, Real etc but with the obsession with the Premier...

    Forum to decide

    My brother is a Leicester fan, god knows how that happened!!, but I managed to get his daughter to come and watch us and she even had a season ticket at HR. If I was offered a ticket to watch them the answer would be no, but then that would probably apply to most PL teams. My friends used to go...
