Brilliant video!
It's memories like that, that make all those freezing cold winters and shitty Tuesday trips up to Carlisle all worth it.

Hi guys,

I've been joyfully sifting through every picture and video clip from last Sunday. The day was a day for the fans. So I thought it only right to create a video from the fans perspective.

I've edited a video to show goals from the many different perspectives and the massive emotional response from the terraces (posh seats!!). Some of the reactions to the goals are mind blowing. It just shows what we could have here if...Well, you know!

I start welling up every time it gets to 3min 30seconds!! However, I am a bit of a wuss!

Hope you enjoy it. Some of your photos and footage have been included so to be fair it's your work as well as mine peeps.

In fairness you're not the 1st person to offer me a straight jacket. The Mrs. Always says 'if only I gave her as much attention as I do the City'!

Was a great video though! Really enjoyed it! Was trying my hardest not to overly use my phone as I wanted to try and take in as much of the day as I could with my 9yo lad, 1st hand! Still feel as though the day just passed me by it was that surreal and now i have hardly any photos/vids to look back on! Nice to see it from lots of different angles/points of view!

The team should be forced to watch it before every game from now on.
Video 10/10, music 0/10.
Unfortunately the video was spoilt by the horrible choice of music.

Haha! No, to be fair, Emeli Sande isn't to everyone's taste! Not mine either to be honest but I needed something with a constant pulsating rhythm, a break down and then a crescendo towards the 'Thomas' Goal.

I try and avoid cliche. Didn't want another video with 'My Blue Sky' or 'We Live and Die In These Towns' because people have heard them a million times before. Both great songs mind.

Amazing video. Had me welling up again. I don't care if people think us winning that trophy is embarrassing the way it made me and 43,500 other cov fans means more than anything. One of the best days of my life. Can't believe it happened.

Should be played today before the kickoff when players are on the pitch and again at half time. In fact keep it on loop for the whole game!

I could just live that day on repeat. This is why it's so special to be a proper football fan, no glory hunter will ever get this feeling.

Thank you for capturing the day so vividly. It was probably the best football family day I have experienced in over 45 years supporting the Sky Blues. Cup win in 87 was special but all I had known til then was Division 1/Premiership football. Having now tasted 2 relegations and no success in subsequent 30 years this day and this result was special and will not be forgotten as we drop down another league. PUSB

I was there in 1987 as a 30 year old struggling to remember all the things that went on that day, good job my brother was there to remind me of things I had forgotten just a few photos of being on the stage at the Binley Working Mans Club. Now as a 60 year old I am sitting here with tears in my eyes, modern technology has a lot to answer for, You Tube, smart phones. What a great way to share memories, I was there again with my brother and my two sons this time, this will never be forgotten, thanks for video and getting me all emotional once again.

Ha! The IT teacher in me kicked in at first and I was ready to take the piss about the quality, but by the end I was crying.

It's a yes from me.

Hey Gruff! Video update! My daughter has just been messaged by a player she knows - they were shown the video before the game today (he spotted her appearance in it!).

Good work Gruffster!

Seriously??!! That's amazing! Wow. I think the experience last week (and the footage taken by the fans) has given everyone a much needed lift. It shows the players do actually want to play for the club. They GET it. Let's keep some momentum going. It is incredible that we have Robins. He, once again, is showing his class at getting the best out of what he's been given.

Thanks for sharing mate that has made my day!

Absolutely top quality Gruff...a fantastic montage of the day. Sums up so many feelings and emotions as the day unfolded. I am pleased that you seem to have recognition as well if it was shown to the players. That couldn't be anything other than impressed by the passion of the supporters. So pleased to see how the young fans reacted.

Quick heads up guys, the video can now only be viewed on PC/Mac. It can no longer be viewed on mobile media such as iPhone's or iPad's. This is not my decision it is Youtube's!!

This is owing to copyright law. I'm allowed to use the song but only if adverts run alongside it. Adverts are an issue on mobile devices so they take the video off! Big fat boo!

Oh well. Onwards.
