I think this thread is specifically about our years of plummeting to the depths of the FL.Nicky Platnauer scoring with his face in the 4v0 victory against Liverpool back in the early eighties. Terry Gibson scored the other three.
Ayari scoring his only goal for City with his Johnson.
Was it this game at HR? - Coventry City - Crewe Alexandra, Nov 27, 2004 - Championship - Match sheetHoping someone can help, my memory is telling me we played Crewe at home, we absolutely battered them for the whole game, they had one attack all game, scored from it and won the game?? But I can’t find it anywhere?? Someone tell me I’m not going mad??
Losing at Forest Green on a park pitch at the top of a hill wasn’t great.
Then waved at everyone from his stretcher. What a guy!Was in the West end and heard his bone break
The Christmas game at Filbert Street when they got five.
Bobby Gould running onto the pitch.
Asked him once on Twitter. why he'd done it. Said he was furious with the ref.
To compound a miserable day, the police blocked us from going towards the street where our car was parked and we got lost.
That day was carnage
Armstrong is one of those player who was too good for the championship but not good enough for the premier League. I agree it looks like his peak has been and gone now.Cole was well past it by the time he came here though, he wasn't at the level of eg a Strachan where he was still the best player on the pitch.
For some reason I think Armstrong's career has peaked now too and he'll drift.
It was a long time in the doldrums. A club that felt sorry for itself being relegated from top flight football, mismanaged, mishandled, misfuckingshit. Disgraceful really and I still hate CCC for their part in it tooThe football wilderness years I would say are defined as 2001 to 2018
No it was the JPT game at the Ricoh I was thinking of. But I was behind the goal for this game, Clayton Ince was incredible, then after we signed him, not so muchWas it this game at HR? - Coventry City - Crewe Alexandra, Nov 27, 2004 - Championship - Match sheet
We absolutely battered them but somehow managed to lose. We had something like 30 shots with 20 on target.
I think we signed Clayton Ince off the back of it.
His lack of pace that day stayed with him for the rest of his time with us.There were a few contenders in the League 2 year - losing at home to Forrest Green and Newport County were both up (down?) there, but 2-6 at home to Yeovil was “special”.
I have a memory of Dom Hyam apparently wearing a deep sea divers lead boots while trying to keep up with their attacker…
Max Biamou the only one who turned up that day it was an absolute farce I stayed the whole 90 and was just fumingThere were a few contenders in the League 2 year - losing at home to Forrest Green and Newport County were both up (down?) there, but 2-6 at home to Yeovil was “special”.

The JPT semi?
They had 3 attacks and scored from all 3
Was at both of these - contributes to my extreme hatred of Crewe.2004 - Dean Ashton pen for them
We beat them in the Cup in 2005, just after Ashton had been sold, and it was a dreadful game. Crewe were always crap, the result only ever hinged on how crap we were in return.Was at both of these - contributes to my extreme hatred of Crewe.
I’m born in 1988 - so was convinced we were going to Wembley, was gutted after that JPT game. Dislike Carsley for only attacking from the 80th onwards in the away leg.
that other game was a travesty - if I recall Clayton Ince played a blinder
We lost 2-6 at home in April 2018, id just checked into my hotel in Buenos Aries and heard the score updates .Not a great start to my trip to Argentina and Uruguay although I did go and watch Boca Juniors play that weekend.Took my grandson to his first Cov match. Lost 6-1 at home to Yeovil.
Delighted he still wanted to follow the City after that!

Yes. Two spectacular goals.Max Biamou the only one who turned up that day it was an absolute farce I stayed the whole 90 and was just fuming

You are correct. How could I deny us another goal against the mighty Yeovil.We lost 2-6 at home in April 2018, id just checked into my hotel in Buenos Aries and heard the score updates .Not a great start to my trip to Argentina and Uruguay although I did go and watch Boca Juniors play that weekend.

I went to this game, pretty sure it was first game of the season (could be wrong) we did batter them all game & even had 3 goals disallowed including one in the last minute.Playing against Bolton’s youth side because their first team was on Strike in 19/20 and being unable to score after smashing them for 90 minutes felt like they only had 1 attack at that point I was ready for another shite season
It was first away game but second game and there was doubts over it going ahead iircI went to this game, pretty sure it was first game of the season (could be wrong) we did batter them all game & even had 3 goals disallowed including one in the last minute.

Yeah that’s right, the game wasn’t confirmed as going ahead until the Friday afternoon, Very decent away following considering tickets were only available for one night & the morning of the match.It was first away game but second game and there was doubts over it going ahead iirc
