I was selected to go to Coventry City for trials aged 15.The week before I got yellow jaundice and was stuck at home for weeks.I was told to keep on playing and I'd be back for another trial in the future.I left Caludon not long after,started at work and didn't play again till I was in my...

I was at Caludon Castle in the late sixties. I played for the school teams and Cov Boys and we won the lot. Our forward line at Cov boys was made up from the forward line of Cally. That team was brilliant a mixture from Wiseman,Whitley,and Woodlands. We'd have beaten this current City team !

To be honest I reckon we'll get a pasting. Last time I was at Wembley was to see the Rolling Stones. Mick Jagger was running about like a teenager and the crowd I was with all said,you get your moneys worth when the Stones perform.Pity the same can't be said about our football team !

They played as if they knew relegation is certain and many won't be here next season. In other words they don't give a shit !

Highway Star - Ritchie Blackmore/Deep Purple.

Just back from pub and the match. To sum up my mood a track that needs playing Highway To Hell ACDC ! Full blast.

How could I forget the intro to Silver Machine by Hawkwind !

Another classic track intro Enter Sandman. Awsome record by an awesome band.

So whenever I hear Ticket To Ride from now on I'll think Otis and bloody trains !

That was when I saw them. Great venue too.

Sorry to hear about your brother.

I never knew he was in turmoil as he looked a together sort of bloke.Read he had a drink problem but had been sober for years,but had started drinking again. A mate of mine died in similar circumstances a year ago so know what a bad addiction alcoholism is.

Saw Big Country twice at the Hummingbird club in Brum. Great live band. Was shocked at Adamson's death.

Always like the start to Riders On The Storm by the Doors. And the intro to You Really Got Me by the Kinks. Sometimes the start to a track is the best thing to a song.

In the pub before the match yesterday a group of us were discussing our favourite intros to records.A varied selection of rock/pop. Favourites were: Smoke On The Water- Deep Purple.Baker Street- Gerry Rafferty.Paranoid- Black Sabbath. Any more favourites ?

Ireland will fight to the end. Lot of international games are tight these days.

A fellow fan today asked me if I watched the Barcelona comeback last night ? It was unbelievable but he said it shows the impossible can happen. He meant that we too could achieve the impossible also. That is dreamland !

Can Robins come in and turn a squad struggling to win games, and do the near impossible and keep us up ? I can't see it myself as teams around us have to go on a losing streak. What do you reckon ?

It'll be the usual set questions no doubt ? Someone will get cut off mid flow and Fisher will have his usual smug look on his well fed face !

When I saw London Road in thread title I thought the one in Coventry !
