    Oh Lord - RIP John Sillett

    Such sad news. Only saw him once outside of football and that was in Waitrose in Kenilworth a few years back. My son was only about 7 at the time and Sil saw him wearing his City shirt said "Play Up Sky Blues!" and ruffled his hair. Admittedly, my son had a "who the fuck was that?!" look on...

    Wow, these new 3D televisions are brilliant. I feel as if I'm there.

    Kane

    I thought he was unlucky to be dropped for the Brum game. I thought he played really well at Sheffield Utd. He should teach Dabo how to cross the ball.

    Postage charges are better than from the official online shop.

    He'd left by then. He and his mate started their own printers and moved their business to Southam.

    Thanks Clint. Very sad, but he had dementia, so hadn't been 'with us' for a while. Massive City fan (started going in 53) with a comedy name. He'll be on the scoreboard for the Brum game.

    My step Dad died recently and I am doing some stuff for his funeral. In the 50s he started as an apprentice in a printers in Coventry, but can't remember the name of it. The printworks were in Mile Lane, I think. Maybe Eaton Road. Can anyone remember what it was called?

    Scab?

    During that summer my lad had done a Sky Blues in the Community thing and got free tickets to one game. I resisted going until the first game in November, a 3-0 win against someone or other and then I caved in and we got a ST. I did paste anti SISU banners in the toilets on one occasion, but...

    Scab?

    I know people who still won't go to any town that begins with an N or anyplace that has an N in it. They get round it by saying they support Covetry City.

    Scab?

    I was in the Scab Club too, so you're in good company. Look at it as a badge of dishonour.

    For the next 35 years. That's why they were knocked out of the Cup yesterday.

    Ballboy

    In front of the main stand in our half. I presumed that was why Dabo was hugging him at the end.

    Ballboy

    Did I imagine it or did the ballboy punch the ball over the advertising hoardings when it was a throw to BC? If he did, good on him.

    Thought Maatsen was pretty poor even before the sending off. Kane was great when he came on. Hope he takes his chance now and he could keep IM out the side. Good to see CO'H back to his best and an incredible performance from Matty. Vital win.

    Terrible game from our point of view. We were chasing it early on and despite the goal never looked like getting a second. Swansea were in total control after going two up and they had so much space. Their keeper was taking the piss and passing it around for fun. Missed the first few minutes...
