I was just surprised by the sudden lack of concern for the Charity and those orphans.

No doubt using poor Coventry orphans as slave labour.

I just get home/away for my son. I don't buy them for myself. Cheap tat compared to previous shirts. Really? SISU don't manufacturer them themselves you know. Anyway this WAS a thread about football shirts, but I don't suppose you could resist.

Of course you should go. Have a good day. I would like to go to the new Wembley. Take a flag. Apparently the new way of having a good time.

And strangely it suddenly didn't matter that Higgs weren't getting lots of cash for their shares. Not a peep about "poor orphans" or "ripping off a charity" then.

Yep, that with Sky blue shorts and dark blue trim.

Some of the 90's/early 00's were OK, but the problem was they were just too baggy, they looked ridiculous.

Yeah, could be. I had been going since '72 but my first regular home/away season was 1978, Wallace, Ferguson, etc. So, that probably does have a lot to do with it. I had that kit and I can still remember it as if it was yesterday.

And there we have it: It was all SISU. If the Council lie to the club and to the fans then it's not their fault. It's all the club that at fault. Doesn't matter that they were publically saying that we could own it while privately negotiating with another team. It's still the clubs fault...

Yes, it was really light, almost like minty blue, if there is such a colour. A bit greeny, if you know what I mean.

Yes, I liked that, but the colour was a bit rubbish, looks better in that picture than it did in the flesh.

1962 - 1980 were great, after that not so great. Last decent one was 2001. I did quite like the "retro" one we had three years or so ago but it wasn't really a nice Sky Blue.

Post the picture again, can't see it. I liked the early 70's plain sky blue and the late seventies "tramline", which is my all-time fave. Kits have been rubbish for years.

Playing dirty? I think you need reminding of this article, you either didn't see it or FUCKING IGNORED IT. The acting leader of Coventry City Council has not ruled out the Sky Blues owning the Ricoh Arena in the future in the future. Weeks of secret negotiations have led to the club agreeing to...

Hopefully, this will lead to loads more moaning. Can't wait.

I'm the opposite. I hate stripes of any description. Sky Blue shirt, Sky Blue shorts, Sky Blue socks, please.

I went in 87, I was 21 so I suppose I was lucky. I would love my lad to see City at Wembley even in a JPT final, so I'm not giving up hope. I just hope it happens before he's 21. Twelve years to go... ONly ever been to Wembley a handful of times, the Cup Final, the Charity Shield against...

Duh! It's SISU ain't it?

Agree totally. The Ricoh is hardly easy to get to is it?

Just wondering about Bees then. They're not in Coventry, are they? I don't think they're called "Coventry" Bees. I still think fans would go if it was a similar distance.
