I was in Prague last week celebrating my 50th birthday and was walking around the old town at night when we came across this shop selling sport themed goods. Mostly European teams were in the shop window but at the back we could see some Premier themed Russian dolls, so we went in.
My missus soon bought her Liverpool painted ones so I thought i'd ask if he ever had heard of my team Coventry City. Amazingly he had not only heard of us but out the back he said he was sure he had Coventry themed dolls too.
Ten minutes later in he came with the dolls in the picture, which I snapped up immediately.At the till he said to me he never thought he would sell these and I was the first person ever to buy the Coventry collection he had, which made me laugh. I did tell him that all but one of the players had now been sold and he should invest in some new names which he said was unlikely as it had took years to sell this doll.
I was going to ask his opinion of who is to blame in the SISU/ACL fiasco and would he like to vote on one of our many online polls ,but I thought I leave it alone and move on
