Yeah, QF in 87. Plus the League Cup semifinal when we came from 2 nil down to beat West Ham 3-2. 1981 was it?The Quarters, Semis and final wins in 87'
Just a fantastic journey. Still a fresh memory all these years later.
What is the best feeling you've ever had Sky Blues related?
Mine is seeing my old man (never one to show emotion and sadly no longer with us) crying on the coach waiting to get out of wembley in 87.
Just seeing how much it meant to him
Something these rich twats in charge of clubs nowadays will never understand
That wolves game was class. I was in the corner and the south bank were going mental at us. Great scenesBetween the Checkatrade final and oddly the game against Wolves in League 1 when Aaron Phillips scored that half volley. They'd been pelting us all game with abuse and coins and things from above and when that goal went in we all turned around and gave some back. Class feeling.
They put us on the bottom half of the Steve Bull stand, they just were launching stuff down at us all game.That wolves game was class. I was in the corner and the south bank were going mental at us. Great scenes
Too many to mention.. First was gaining promotion from the (new) 4th div. My worst ever feeling was the Colchester game in 64 when George H scored the goal that got us promoted to the 2nd div. Why? Cos my dad, who took me to my first match in 1948 and instilled in me a love of the City, had passed away a few weeks earlier and so he never saw that promotion or the subsequent one to the first div. I'm now 76 and I still think of him every time we have a match. Tonight will be no exception. Thanks DadWhat is the best feeling you've ever had Sky Blues related?

I remember for the winner Clarke, and 2 others both seemed to be through 1 on 1 with the keeper. I remember screaming at him to square it as he took an age to shoot. Luckily it went in and everyone went crazy. I remember somebody ripping a bin bag open full of rubbish and belly sliding through it.Such a nothing game in hindsight, but when we beat preston 3-2 in the checkatrade.
They were giving it loads all game and then Leon Clarke and Carl Baker pop up with 2 late goals. I was covered in cuts and bruises after that.
