I don't understand Legends Never Leave. MB may leave to go to a PL side tomorrow. He's already left us before. And traditionally, you only become a legend once you retire/leave.

Sent to Coventry.

It is a nationwide known phrase about Coventry. We have just claimed it as our own.

‘Legends Never Leave’

That’s fucking fantastic!! Might be worth enlarging the middle text so it’s more prominent and capitalising it!

I’ve just donated, pusb!

I like it, but that means if he leaves the flag is redundant.


Unless he still has Sky Blue blood of course and we are forever in his heart.

This is a bit of a small club mentality to take to it. Robins has already achieve greatness with us, in a Coventry City Context. Robins has done more than enough already to merit some admiration and appreciation. Robins is the only manager to deliver any form of tangible success since 1987.

Do you think when Gerrard left Liverpool to see out his career in LA, that Liverpool fans threw away all banners and flags mentioning him?

Please see my reply below, that's such a small club mentality to take to it.

Umm, not trying to be funny, but Gerrard was born in Merseyside. He joined Liverpool when he was 9.

You are thinking too literally.

Jimmy Hill left but still a legend.

MR will leave some day but always be a legend to us.

.... and fuck other fans

I think legends never leave sounds proper passive aggressive about him leaving before and also grasping and desperate about the idea of him leaving again.

Why not have Hill, Sillett and Robins, to emphasise the point that its not just about Robins, but as far as we're concerned legends never leave?

You could have all three with 'Inspired'.

Spires not as well known as Sent to Coventry so might be lost on some but still relevant. Also think with Sillett Curtis sort of deserves to be there too which ruins the three.

I once put forward a potential slogan to reclaim Sent to Coventry. Just followed it with "You should be so lucky!"

Chaos letting people throw in their own designs, you've even got me playing with Powerpoint and i'm about as artistic as something that isnt artistic...

i quite like the 2 tone checks with both sky blue and black though! There's my input, will donate!

We need several flags and a lot more money.

It depends how he leaves or where he goes. What if Gerrard left to play for Utd? What if Robins leaves us mid-season to manage Villa?

Okay, so, how about.

"Sent to Coventry, even though he wasn't actually sent and chose to come here himself to become a legend because Legends Never Leave though in reality they often do sometimes"

Yay! Cracked it!

Can't have legends never leave. Just sounds a bit silly when he's already left once.

I'm also not overly keen on including Hill. There's already a perfectly good Jimmy Hill flag. This should be in addition to the Hill flag.

I'd also go with the 2 tone, just adds a bit of extra commemoration for this season and gives it a slightly different look to the Hill flag.
