isn't it a song written by brummies? They'll start playing that Tom Grennan c**t soon, watch this space.

Song written by Tom Clarke, born in Birmingham but lived and went to school in Finham, Andy Hopkins a big Cov fan from Balsall Common and the other one born and bred in Cov.


So no, not Brummies. A song specifically about life in Coventry for working class people by a band formed in Coventry.

As for Grennan, God forbid anyone starts supporting Coventry. Half of the crowds we get now were not supporting us in the previous 10 years.

Careful. Most of the band members don't support Coventry.

So?

I like the Hey Jude/Sky Blues chant and I’m fairly sure The Beatles aren’t City fans.

Its a Coventry band and a great cover and that’s good enough for me.

I love listening to the Enemy and agree it’s by a band from Coventry and music mostly written about life in Coventry. Not sure why people would hate that…

People just mad it’s not from the 80s I guess

Just don’t like the song TBH, not catchy or particularly good. Also not sure it’s a particularly positive song about the city. Like I like Ghost Town but wouldn’t play it to celebrate the City.

It’s a very Cov thing to put down your own. Never understood why we do.

Also, since moving away, I’ve noticed that affectionate p***taking is at a higher level in Cov. Yes it happens elsewhere but not to such a high level. That’s what I’ve found anyway.

Extremely popular though because it relates to many men around the country.

Born and bred in rough towns and cities, leave school and work a job you don't enjoy and have no escape. The first album is a masterpiece for me. The others very underrated.

The thing I don't like about Sweet Caroline is that it's too universal so the away fans get in on it as well, whereas everything played should exclude them entirely. Neil Diamond can't be too busy to knock up a few versions with alternative lyrics for us

Sweeeeeeeeeeeet Caroline

Fuck

Brom

Good times never seemed so good

No I get that. But shouldn’t we be celebrating the city instead of plastering a slogan about how it’s a shit place to live everywhere?
