I got some sad news yesterday about my grandad who passed away in hospital, he was a true sky blue and loved Coventry city for his whole life and got me into the club when I was little, over on Twitter last night my tribute post to him got an overwhelming amount of support from so many amazing people and a lovely chap called Stu put out a message about an 80th minute clap for him at the game tomorrow as he was 80 years old, if anyone going tomorrow would be willing to participate in this then from the bottom of my heart it would mean the world to me and my family and I would be forever grateful 🩵

Sorry to hear this.

Are they going to put something on the screen as a reminder?

They’re not I don’t think, hopefully people will remember and it will be an incredibly special moment, however people don’t have to clap if they don’t want to 🩵

The club do a couple of matchday memorials per season, so if you wish you can submit details to be included on the big screen. The last one was Swansea and I think the next will be in April.

Fair point, it’s completely optional, not forcing anyone to clap 🩵
