    Three words. 'Taxi for Robins'. Enough said. I don't debate with idiots.

    Some genius on here ('listentomehearmeout') wants to move him upstairs to be director of Cov's city of culture committee - I know that makes no sense.

    Godden a complete waste of money. Taxi for that arrogant tw@t Robins.

    City v West Ham 1981 Semi Final Video

    Very true unfortunately Fernando. It's all in the book. The abuse of our two black players that night was horrendous.

    City v West Ham 1981 Semi Final Video

    Very true. Christie and Kaylor did make their peace many years later and ultimately had incredible respect for each other. Errol and his brothers were also known to take the battle against the NF to the front lines - and gave some of that mob some harsh boxing lessons on the streets of Cov...

    City v West Ham 1981 Semi Final Video

    Nice bit of nostalgia hearing a few air horns in the crowd whenever one of our players did something decent - must have been a few crossover fans from the Coventry Bees - every second kid watching at Brandon had an air horn back in the late 70s/early 80s. Might have had one myself.

    City v West Ham 1981 Semi Final Video

    One interesting anecdote from that night at West Ham is that a mob of West Ham's 'finest' pre-game tried to attack a family group from Cov. A couple of young black lads from Cov saw what was happening and ran over to stand between the West Ham thugs and the family. The Hammers mob charged in...

    Just watched this - fantastic! Forgot how good a side that was. If we could have kept that team together, under Milne we had a top 4 side right there. No doubt. Thomas and Gillespie - certainly the best young defenders in the country. Daly, Hunt, Blair and Bodak (brilliant in this game)...

    Both players make it into my all time City team. Absolute class. I do recall Steve (who was a silky player) getting sent off at HR for sparking someone out.

    City v West Ham 1981 Semi Final Video

    ‘Bodak’s the name, goals are my game’! He was a very talented player who was playing in the wrong era - a couple of years later it was all route 1 and getting it into the mixer. Terrible football on heavy pitches. In the modern era, Bodak would be highly valued.

    City v West Ham 1981 Semi Final Video

    I was there as a youngster! And for the Watford quarter final as well. The West Ham 1st leg is simply my all time favourite game at HR. 2-0 down. 3-2 up. As someone posted above I will never forget the celebrations after the third goal. Difficult to explain now but the LC semi-final was a...

    Thanks for asking Grends. I’m beating an urgent path to the Coventry City of Culture Trust to nominate Robins as the new Chair in line with your latest genius idea.

    #taxi it may have escaped your attention but we have a brilliant shot at promotion this year. Best to support the lads on the pitch to achieve this vs. idle speculation on who you personally want to bin this summer. What does that achieve at this time? It’s self destructive.

    The latest meaningless slogan from #taxi has arrived: ‘you don’t offer an opinion.’ It really is comical.
