It’s the one of the great facts of supporting Coventry City! Some more- We were the first team to have a dedicated supporter train to away games. First to play in an all seater stadium 1981 First team (in England) to play in an all brown kit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Click to expand... What does dedicated supporter train to away games actually mean? Like our own carriage?

Quit Sky Blue Hero Joined May 27, 2016 Messages 9,949 Reaction score 6,692 Just watched a YouTube video, Cov vs Villa Highfield Road year 2000, Sky Blues win 2.1 Robbie Keane scoring the winner. Boateng and Dublin in the Villa side, Dublin scores for the Villa both Boateng and Dublin celebrate his goal. I'd forgotten about them celebrating, no respect for the City fans like Ashley Grimes against Swansea.

Just googled it and there was a player that played for us in the 80’s but way before my time and I didn’t think I had ever heard of but maybe I had subconsciously
