A nice idea, but will the negative moaners who will now turn up and expect nothing less than 6-0 every week and criticise every stray pass please keep their thoughts to themselves.

This is the best season in the living memeory of anyone under 56

I beg to differ but statistically you are correct. Bubble appearing over my head: what about 69-70? What about 87?

lol, I immediately thought of him as I can imagine him making a right din... probably getting arrested too but he’d be pretty vocal while he was in the ground

When you say getting vocal I assume you're talking about ranting and raving about his usual nonsense rather than supporting the team?!
I'm pretty safe as I'm surrounded by ST holders but I so occasionally wander down to the POTG blocks for the 2nd half.
I'll think twice now

No "Forward" shouts or groaning when Marosi looks a bit iffy with a defender closing him down

*Edit... when a striker is closing Marosi down!

A good cup run isnt classed as a good season so 87 is out.
And this currently is equaling the 67 season. Coventry havent been in the top 2 of ANY division post christmas since 1967. 52 years. This is our best/most successful season since and for the majority of fans, our lifetimes. At 34 I wasnt around for the JH days and was 2 when we won the FA Cup si for me and my 11yo son, this is special, and we're enjoying every single moment of it.

Be great if the club could do a two for £25 ticket offer, for the Rotherham and Sunderland games.

We were good in the league 86-87 and would no doubt have finished higher if either European football or the ridiculous cash per place of the EPL was at stake.

I agree with both of you- the reason this season is so big as it’s part of the complete rebirth of our club, this is as close to another jimmy Hill story as we’ve ever seen. Could be two promotions and a cup in 3 years, get the ground side sorted and this is the most pivotal, important phase in our entire history.

I appreciate your well intentioned motives.

Im not going to a "home" game outside Coventry.

Happy seeing win today at Rochdale. Looking forward to Accrington or Lincoln next.

I would argue that your “protest” is now misguided and that you are believing all you are fed by different groups with a different agenda. But that’s another conversation for a different thread.

Not great being midweek but if you cannot be up for a game like Rotherham then there is no hope. Arguably the biggest game we have had in recent history

7 points ahead of the team in 7th with a couple of games in hand on a few of them- it would take an Icarus like drop off now to not be at least in the playoffs.

Glad you and your kid are enjoying it so much Pasty! Is that statistic correct? If so, it's terrifying and a real indicator of how little joy we've had for the last half century. Very proud of what the manager and team are doing now, just need to keep it up.
