Excellent report and background -thank you!

You’re right, Burge has been in ever since O’Brien made a couple of mistakes earlier in the season, apart from Crewe, when Burge was ill. Like the rest of the players in this particular team, he tries his hardest every week, and overall does a good job for us. I’m pleased to see a good number of...

Do you remember your thread about consistency a month or so ago? Don’t dare say it, but.....

That Blackpool was a wet night. We lost to a lower league team, we were well supported, most City fans (including us) were behind the goal with no cover, and we also had some seats at the side which were under cover. The rain was horrendous, as was our performance, and the main entertainment was...

Oh blimey - don’t say it!

Two games in the 60’s stand out. One at Wolves, we turned out in force but when we got close to Molinuex, the game had been called off due to fog. We were then given a good chasing by Wolves, and I remember as we ran down the street a Cov fan was standing there shouting ‘I’ll down the next...

I haven’t read all the posts on this thread because it’s too painful, so others may have already have said this - what an awful thread, haven’t we got better, more positive things to discuss???

I’ll have to watch out for that one!

Same for me, and I guess for a number of posters on here.

Why, what happened? We were congratulated by good natured Spurs fans after the game. ‘Well done Cov’ comments like that. Mind you, we live near Newcastle, and on the trip home up the A1, we took dog’s abuse from Sunderland fans travelling in the same direction, after their defeat at Wimbledon...

To be fair, I’m going back maybe 3 seasons, we lost, I think 1-0, and at the end of the game our players were badly abused by a sizeable minority of Coventry ‘fans’.

I must admit, whenever I go away I’m praying for a good performance, not just for the result, but because I’ve seen the toxic reaction when we lose and play badly (Bury, Rochdale, Oxford spring to mind). I also, of course, remember good occassions (Mansfield, Crewe, Wolves). It’s a shame the...

Saracens Head? Or home brew?

I’ve just looked up the meaning of your ‘handle’ - I’ve never been to Greece, so my education is obviously incomplete!!

Good luck!!

Well, it may depend on whether we get promoted. I’m not sure that any Championship club will come in for him, and he would then be playing League 1 with us, so why would we sell to another League 1 club? So let’s hope it falls in to place for us!

It’s the negativity of the comments that are disappointing, no half measures, no allowance for some of the good things Burge does, just focus on mistakes, or, yawn, kicking.

Ah, Graham Westley, thank you, a very similar type of Manager to Greyson, I think. Yes, credit to the ref, I think it was. About the 96th minute we scored. City deserved that - and so did Preston!

What a great goal that was, and what a feeling. Preston were 1-0 up and time wasting for England - their players, the ball boys, and even the fans when the ball went into the stands. I also thought that they were a mean spirited team (Simon Greyson the Manager?) so when we scored right at the...

I booked two tickets at 9.00pm this evening. Block 6, thanks for the tip off.
