Coventry former glory's (1 Viewer)

[TheUKGryphon]

I've seen it written in several reports
That Coventry's good at minority sports
The speedway, the Hockey
There's no team we can't beat
So why does our football players have 2 left feet.

It never used to be this way
We all remember the 16th of May
In 95 we spanked Rovers 5 nil
And years before that we had the great Jimmy Hill

Gone are the days in which we felt pride
Today we're just weeping at our lamentable slide
Gone is the cash, gone is the glory
The fall of sky blue is a sad sad story.

For Coventry City, a new dawn must come
It's a passion for me but just a hobby to some.
I yearn for the days when we had footballing clout
But they won't come again 'til we've got SISU OUT!

Sums it all up very well. Once the city was known for its football team and let's not forget its rugby team which has suffered a similar fate. Now the city is famous for, errr, its ice hockey team. No offence to ice hockey but it's not quite got the same appeal...

Any those ice hockey players play football?

But at least the rugby club now has a new saviour with his own wealth ,not sure if he's cov connected but think so.

Any those ice hockey players play football?

Or the speedway riders?
(On second thoughts, being injury prone could be a problem with the speedway riders)

nice

done my own





Turner was sold, for 700k
Gunnar for less, he was given away
Andy Carrol could have been ours, just for one mill
we play in a stadium we cant even fill
"Play up sky blues" is what we all sing
We offered a contract to Jailbird King
"Can we play you every week", Against Barnsley we sang
Without the embargo, its "BANG BANG BANG BANG"
Last Years top scorer, didnt even get 10
On the bench sat some guy, called Orange Ken
last years new kit took us back to our roots
all of the academy had to "bring their boots"
All the last minute goals, couldnt have been a fluke
Oh well, lets sell our top scorer Juke
Our club used to be the couumity hub
Brody suggested we "text a sub"
We lost our last game 0-4
The boardroom has installed a revolving door

SISU promsies turn out to be lies
we dont even keep the money from the pies
so we all hope we hear from the hoff
As the empty trophy cabinet contains just a moth
Until that day we are all dying to know
How long will it be, before SISU just go
Your not wanted here, to much you have messed us
so jog on hedge fund, and take you "investors"

No, Thankyou - Dido

My Teams gone down, I'm wondering why
I bought a season ticket at all
The championship tables on my windows7
but i cant see CCFC at all
And even if i could, Sky Blues would be in (R)
87 pictures on my wall
but it just reminds me, when it wasnt so bad, wasnt so bad

I I, want to thank SISU, for giving me the worst days of my life
and O O, Fcuk U SISU, for giving me the wosrt days of my life

Spent too much on shite, got bills to pay
Andy Thorn just cant be blamed
Whats the fuss cause they'll be all in the prem
They be sold before half past 10
And even if the arent, it will all be right
cause in Division 2, it not so bad, not so bad

I I, want to thank SISU, for giving me the worst days of my life
and O O, Fcuk U SISU, for giving me the wosrt days of my life
