    EFL Statement

    There was a professor from Warwick University on 5 Live the other day talking about the various scenarios that may happen when the lockdown is realeased. The method he favoured was that young people (those under 35?) could be the first group realeased. His rationale for this was that...

    Could be 18 months before fans allowed back in stadiums

    He did say filled to capacity. Not quite the same as no crowd at all.

    First ever CCFC memories ?

    All ticket I think.

    Quest EFL goal of the season.

    Biamou’s at Peterborough for me. But the Walsh goal is also a great goal.

    First ever CCFC memories ?

    I was about to post the same thing about Ian Wallace. Wasn't it touch and go as to whether he would have full vision again? I don't think he had made his debut at the point he had the accident. Re- the Chelsea player, Peter Houseman rings a bell?.

    MOTD - The good old days

    I love the way we play but I would say the game was more exciting 40 years ago.

    BBC Sounds Replay - Coventry vs Spurs FA CUP Final

    Couldn’t work out who the pundit was, someone with a pronounced brummie accent. Spoiled the commentary for the goal and also looked a bit of a fool as Bennett on the right crossed for Houchen to head in.

    David Icke Again

    I think his career ended because of some sort of debilitating illness. He is an odd person to say the least.

    Most Enjoyable away wins

    Stoke also had a penalty in the last few minutes. Stoke were an awful team that season and to be honest, on the night we weren't much better. Ian Painter, who later joined us, took the penalty. If he had scored, we were down. Fortunately his penalty was as bad as his team's performance (I think...

    Video CLASSIC HIGHLIGHTS | Coventry City 3-2 Manchester City, 14th October 1972

    A few nice pieces of play from Mick Coop in those clips. He was an underrated player I think. That game was the start of a great run which ended when we were knocked out of the cup by Wolves in the quarter finals. I was convinced that this was going to be our year. I was in my final year at...

    Sunderland Til' I Die

    That guy Methven seems like a character from the office. Really full of himself and an oily personality. Is he still there?

    CET - Click bait titles

    I had forgotten all about Matthew Pennington. He was a good player when he was here. I just looked him up on Wikipedia. He is now 25 and has played less than 120 first team games at various clubs on loan. Only 7 of those appearances have been for his parent club Everton. No doubt he has earned a...

    Sunderland Til' I Die

    There was an earlier documentary on Sunderland (Why always Sunderland?) which I think was on the BBC. It was when they were managed by Peter Reid and they were having quite a successful time. The thing that stood out for me was an episode where they showed Reid in the dressing room at half time...

    Favourite XI you’ve seen live

    Oggy - Just keeps out Bill Glazier Oakey- Love watching him play,such a shame his career was so brief Peake Gillespie - Ball playing centre halves McDonald - Such a skilful player. Carr Mortimer- Attacking midfield, both ball carriers who could score goals Bennett - Best right winger I have seen...
