First of all after the awful decisions that went against Vile last night, What are the worst decisions you have seen against Coventry? Secondly, is anybody going to "Jimmys Hill" on sunday?

The worst decision ever against Coventry is moving from the Ricoh to Northampton utterly disgraceful !
And as I've said to fellow fans I'm not setting foot in Northampton so don't know what the Hill is about.
All I'm doing right now is trying to sort out a ticket to Shrewsbury the following week,but am missing our real home games now so another bad decision is letting SISU set foot into our beloved club !

Terrible decision last night...the big four always getting let off.

As for Cov and the Hill....I'm not going to Northampton...but having read some other threads it looks as the cracks are appearing in our solidarity to stay away.

If we keep winning (Big If) Timmy is gonna start saying "I told ya so"

lets see what develops

Remember Graham Poll having an absolute stinker at the Ricoh.

I was young at the time, but I'm sure I remember seeing a lino give offside from a throwin against Liverpool at HR.

Also a City player getting booked after Beckham did the worst dive I've ever seen 10 feet from him.

Blimey. JUST at The Ricoh.

Poll was a joke and loved the 'celebrity' loviness surrounding his TV appearences.

Always liked the rumour about the error he made in the World Cup in 2006.

My son was a ball boy at this game, Cardif were given a "dodgy" penalty, amonst numerous poor desicions, he told Poll what he thought of his performance at half time, and clapped him sarcastically as they left the pitch.
Police were sent in to the ball boys dressing room,and he got a ticking off, we recieved a letter from the club stating nonsense like"bringing the game into distribute" and would no longer be required as a ball boy.

As for "Jimmys Hill" On Sunday it's a no, I'm of to Ibiza on Saturday, but am sireously considering it for the Sheffield United game.

Not going to the Hill this Sunday but when I find out where it Is I am going against Colchester.
Those who go into the games have helped kill our club, the real supportrs are those not going.

How can the people actually supporting their team not be real supporters? By not supporting the team your are a real supporter? That really doesn't make any sense.

Real cyclists are the ones who don't go cycling.

Kirkland getting sent off at Chelsea in 2000, we went on to lose 6-1 and then got hassled by the stewards for celebrating our goal. Absolute disgrace especially as Hasselbaink talked to the ref before the red card telling him Kirkland hadn't touched him and replays showed the same. The red card was rescinded I think on appeal.

The worst I've seen went for us. Clive Allen free kick went straight in the net and came out again and the ref just played on. Hilarious.

I'm boycotting home games as well but stop this "Real supporters" crap. It's not helping and just makes you sound like an idiot.

Away FA Cup Sheffiield Wednesday night game after original date fell victim of snow. Injury time looking at a replay....corner Wednesday forward head it wide for goal kick except on the way out it hit the back of a Coventry defenders arm who had jumped in front of him. Ball to hand?...not if the refs from South Yorkshire penalty!!

Grendel in fairness Clive Allen Palace was such a bullet shot in real time from the West End looked like it come back off the bar. Only slow motion showed it hit the metal back stantion...one reason they got rid of them.

Not the worst decision against Cov but the worst ever at Highfield road on 6 September 1980,Clive Allen tottenham took a free-kick which thumped against the right-hand stanchion inside the goal before coming back out again. After much arguing and consulting with his assistant, the referee decided that the ball had not crossed the line - it show's we do have some luck after all but unfortunately it has run out - Will be going on the hill for one match Sheffield United to make a massive point with hopefully a few thousand
