    Pictures of Cov in the past and Coventry Pubs

    Remember the old Pool Meadow Houch ? As a kid my mum or dad when we walked through it would buy me a football magazine from a stall inside the bus station. Have you any pictures of that time ? I'm sure it was inside the main part.

    98 Years Old And Still Works Out

    Been looking up strength etc online. The strongest animal/creature on earth is the dung beetle which can lift over a thousand times it's own body weight !

    98 Years Old And Still Works Out

    My youngest son who's 32 is slim and about 11 stone. To look at him he doesn't look strong but he's a roofer and a tough tackling midfielder. I had a drink recently with his roofer workmate and he said my son was the hardest worker he'd ever worked with,and is as strong as an Ox. Bloody hell...

    Relegation thread

    To stay in this division we now have to go and play like a team going for a play off spot. In other words win game after game and hope teams in and around us lose or draw. Can you see this happening ?

    He's at it again as he called their ground the Ricoh ! And he said that Walsall had taken the lead then a little later said they had now equalised.

    Death list 2017

    An elderly customer of mine has been burgled again this week and she's scared and vulnerable. She's a lovely old lady but the police do nothing to help. So if I got hold of the scumbag who's making her life a misery stick him on this list !

    Best Coventry Central Midfielder?

    Hudson was a centre forward,Blockley centre half.Mortimer was a Judas as he went to Villa ! Good midfielder though. Ian Gibson for me.

    Snow nostalgia - who remembers this game?

    Seen some great games in wintry conditions. Floodlights on in the afternoon,orange ball,Soupy Sam selling hot drinks,and piles of snow on the side of the pitch. But for older fans remember Ian StJohn playing for Liverpool at Highfield Road and knocking out Brian Lewis with a left hook ? My dad...

    Graham Taylor

    The Sun newspaper started the turnip stuff and he took a lot of stick he said. On the radio tonight he said in an interview that he got spat on etc. That paper is bog paper !

    Teenage girl who murdered a 7 year old

    As I've mentioned on here before I've been in prison,not proud of it but that's in the past now.But some cons I've met inside were the stuff of nightmares.One con had been in and out since he was a kid,and was a true psychopath. You could talk with him and he was "normal" but could turn and saw...

    Graham Taylor

    Sad news indeed he was likeable and a true football man. That's two friends Elton John has just lost in George Michael and now Graham Taylor.

    98 Years Old And Still Works Out

    Are you sure you're not Alien ? Only joking but he was incredible as he drank us all under the table,eat like a horse,and never took a day off. But fitness/strength is deceptive as someone who looks strong can be weak. My late father was a Brickie and they needed a hod carrier. A bloke walked on...

    Eakinballs

    Benno as much as we love him for his Cup Exploits is terrible on the radio. Unfunny and sounds as if he's had a rough night.I wish they'd have a clean out on CWR and give us some new voices,its boring listening to the usual presenters.

    U2-Joshua Tree

    Got it on again ! Love that track too but my favourite is The Sun Will Shine On You and also All My Life. All the tracks have a 70's feel to them which I like as to me it was a great decade for music.

    U2-Joshua Tree

    The last gig ever at the Birmingham Odeon was the Cult and three of us went to it and the place was rocking.Great band and She Sells Sanctuary is a classic rock track.

    U2-Joshua Tree

    I liked it that much I put it back on when I came in earlier.Not a bad track on it in my opinion.Not sure what stopped me playing it before.Yes I could feel the Orbison/Harrison influence in a few tracks but that ain't a bad thing.Pretty Woman came on the radio the other day and I was humming it...

    Checkatrade - time to own up

    Let's calm down a bit we haven't got there yet. I recall the Crewe fiasco and we all thought we were home and dry before that game. I hope we do get to Wembley more for our younger fans,as I was there in 87 but our young supporters have had sod all have they.We were talking about it in the pub...
