HoHoHo! How witty and perceptive!

Agree, it’s their own ground, and I am really looking forward to going there and standing behind the goal. Clubs like this and their fans have my respect, (so dare I hope for no ‘Accrington’s a s*** hole’ songs?) a draw will not be a bad result.

Totally agree. There have been times over the past couple of years when I have been embarrassed by the reaction of our fans at the end of a game. Not Saturday, I’m pleased to say.

Jeez - give the guy a break. He’s a decent, hard working player

Worked well, that.

I was really pleased that the fans reacted well at the end of the game, long may it continue.

I thought that in the second half, McNulty and Biamou looked dangerous in the second half, and both could have scored with a little luck. I think they’re worth persevering with.

The lack of goals is obviously disappointing, but I think both McNulty and Biamou are good players, and show promise of things to come.

I agree with most of what you say here, although I wouldn’t be so quick to write him off, we just haven’t seen enough of him yet. He does look ‘heavy’, presumably his natural build, but I’m sure City will be looking at that. We need to know what his overall game is like, can he hold the ball up...

Thought the Sky Blue Army were excellent today. A frustrating day, and we didn’t play particularly well, but the fans kept behind the team and applauded at the end. Good humour with the Barnet ‘band’, and pleased that we didn’t belittle Barnet (or Edgware, more accurately!) the town or the team...

The last group are probably the best defence we’ve had in my time supporting the club. Although our defence have done well, Barnet played for a draw today, and didn’t offer much of a threat today. Other posters are right to point to the defensive nature of the team, with holding midfielders...

Where are you in Norfolk God?

Good, informative post, thank you. Looking forward to the day, and wishing you all the best for the season, except for a couple of games! Oh, and we're Cov, and won't be taking your 'you should win' for granted!

Well said, good luck for the season! Looking forward to visiting the real St James Park in January!!

A shame, but great that you still follow from afar. Similar to you, my family moved away, to South Norfolk in 1969, when I was 14. Started to play football, and watched City spasmodically in the 70's and early 80's. We're living up near Newcastle now, and get to maybe 8/10 games a season, always...

Great posts C&C! You were watching City 2 years before I was born, and fully 10 years before my first game against Sunderland in the 5th round of the FA Cup, 25 March 1963, when I also, was 7 years old. Respect to you! Are you still in Coventry, and do you still go to games?

Sorry to be a bore, my top 10 games ( been thinking of posting these for a while), with some explanations. 1. Cov v Wolves 1967. 3-1 to City in the 'Midlands match of the century'. Who wouldn't feel privileged to have been there? 2. Wembley 1987. At the final whistle, I said to my wife 'I...

Although I think Newcastle fans are arrogant, some of it is due to me being up here, and seeing/hearing them all the time. Liverpool fans have always cheesed me off, they think they have a divine right to win every game, they've gone a bit quieter recently, but a couple of years ago they were...

Absolutely! The Midlands match of the Century is my all time 'moment in time' favourite game. Followed closely by Wembley '87. Trivia point, I played for Kings Lynn in season 82/83, and our captain was one Mick Wright, who scored the headed winner against City at Highfield Road. Mick played over...
