    What was you're worst ever awayday?

    Bobby Gould wasnt sacked after that 0-3 Walsall defeat. However, a day or so later, he convinced Cyrille to join us from West Brom. The lows and highs of being a Cov fan squeezed into a few short days.

    8 for me too. In the 60's, Mick Kearns wife, Pat, was secretary to my dad at EMEB when it existed. She told him the following episode... Mick had gone out on the lash one evening with a few other players who got him totally mullered. They brought him home, leaned him by the front door, pressed...

    Favourite ever goal?

    Into the arms of, possibly, Jim Blyth ? Whoever it was in goal the threw it out to Mick Coop who then passed it to Brian Alderson... The rest is as described above. My fav Cov goal by a large margin.

    Favourite ever goal?

    Tommy Hutch scored the only goal in an early season, mid-week game against Liverpool. Sometime in the mid-70's....can't remember the year. Basically, a pass came from Brian Alderson on the right wing which found Colin Stein's head while he was being challenged by a Liverpool defender. He heads...

    Sunderland fans

    Talked to a Brizzle City fan a few weeks ago & they are detested by the Mackems too. Perhaps not as much as us but they are equally blamed for the sterile last 15 minutes of THAT game !

    Stones at the Ricoh

    Saw Caravan backing up Mott the Hoople at the Matrix rather a long time ago. MTH hadnt gone commercial at that stage and were a honest to goodness rock band.

    Ken Dodd.... rip

    The guy was a quirky genius. I didnt see him live but he appeared at the Cromer pier theatre about 10 years ago and had virtually no audience left by 1am when the management pulled the plug. First to go were the last bus people followed by those who simply had to go to work the next day. One...

    Back in the day, the Christmas pantomime at the Cov theatre used to last to early March to be replaced by The Spring Show. A variety show with, usually, a few big showbiz names.
