    6 Players, You Decide...

    Yes to mcgoldrick - think Wallace also falls out of 30 years. 2 left?

    6 Players, You Decide...

    I think terry just falls out of 30 years. Agree on mifsud, Clarke and Quinn. As for speedie, gutted I left out one of my faces.

    Quinn - definite. I guess Wilson now...

    Me too -first game (WBA).

    6 Players, You Decide...

    OK, I'm feeling brave. 20 strikers then. (though wish I'd limited it to 20 years or just focused on Wilson). I'll give you Keane, Dublin, Ndlovu, Huckerby, Regis, Houchen, Gallacher, Whelan, McSheffery, Adebola, Best, Hartson, Aloisi, (grudgingly Bell-end) Bellamy. Got another 6? See, I'm not...

    6 Players, You Decide...

    Very amusing - spoken by any fan who watched Cov in the 70s. Well, most of us under 50 haven't seen Tommy in action, so, like Clarrie Bourton, not sure he will make all lists!

    6 Players, You Decide...

    Generally agree - though not sure you could find 20 better strikers in last 30 years than Armstrong and Wilson (but you could find 10 easily!). Sentiment is true though - I feel sorry for any young fan. My 7 year old has only been going a couple of years and is about to witness a relegation to...

    6 Players, You Decide...

    Like this thread, something a bit different / positive / fantasy... Well, I'll have Hedman in goal and perhaps either Gary Breen (as we dream of a team...) or Stuart Pearce as they would either add composure or bite to our defence. Definitely need some goals - so Dublin and Keane (as selected by...

    Willis gone, Exodus begins!

    I'm disappointed. Yes, he isn't premier class, but he was good for this level and could cope in some championship teams. As others have mentioned, he is a Cov lad and showed his desire, he is (was) our captain and leading scorer... Good luck Jordan.

    As promised - REJECTED - the book Competition

    My three guesses, and I am feeling quite confident! A 1969 Dodge Charger, in Orange, with a racist sticker over the top. You were driving with your cousin and Daisy, being chased by the police .... Alternatively, a double decker bus, going to San Monique and you went under a bridge and lost the...

    Match Thread Coventry v Brighton U21 Match Thread - Tuesday 10th Jan

    I'd like yeovil midweek, though not if we lose on penalties!

    Respect

    I'm missing too. I did feel for nick and the abuse...then I realised I'm not on the list. What a selfish git.

    Club cov lounge v legends lounge

    Thanks for thoughts, down to two options - ruled out Cov lounge then.... Wife still keen on a padded seat (if I have to sit through this...). Wouldn't mind, but when we initially met up (20+ years ago), she didn't mind HR!

    Club cov lounge v legends lounge

    Hello all, As part of my brainwashing plan for the next generation, I'm planning to take my 5 year old daughter to her first game and perhaps rather than go to the family stand (which is good and I take my 7 year old to), I thought I might try the hospitality options of either club cov lounge or...

    Now , here's a personal question ...

    Oh, missed initial question.... It is a battle (wife is a manc from a family of united fans), but lullabies of sky blue songs - Coventry home and team of Gary breens, replica shirts and visits to the Ricoh are helping. Against this, school, match attax and friends have made premier league more...

    Now , here's a personal question ...

    Sounds familiar, took my son to his first game at 5 and he was disappointed at half time (losing 2-0)... Then, gave him a hot dog, city won 3-2 and he was happy. Two years on and will take my 5 year old daughter in the spring (quite cold in the Midlands in the winter for little ones). As for...

    Book by Gilbert

    I agree on the wasps - they were skimmed over (though they made sensible decisions regarding buying acl which I wish sisu had). I'm still undecided on the council - sisu made some enemies and this may have influenced a few / did they always act in the interests of taxpayers. The area has been...

    Book by Gilbert

    Not sure the publishing industry is known for paying large sums for authors of niche subjects - I hope he had a good advance, as I can't imagine the royalties will allow him to retire!
