If you want a real pub before the game head to the wheatsheef, only place to experience proper Coventry before a game!
Queues for toilets are pretty bad however

Have you ever thought about having your own tv show Jeremy, you could be like a moral guardian, helping disgruntled people with bad teeth to come to some sort of amicable solution to their troubles.
Get yourself to the Kasbah afterwards and you might even bump into a couple of the team.
I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for the Jeremy Konko show.

I think we should create a Jeremy Konko song - just a one off for the evening.

To my old man's a dustman

'Konko comes from Houston
Wears a Stetson on his head
He fronts a Mexican drugs cartel
And if you cross him then you're dead

He sells heroin and cocaine,
He sells them by the pound,
And with his dodgy money,
He'll build us a new ground.

We have to be careful here, otherwise Jeremy and 'friends' are going to get refused entry to the UK !!

Thanks for the advice. Kasbah post match sounds good. Youth Football in the US is a "pay-to-play" club system costing between $1500 - $2500 a year for each 7yo -17yo. The guys I'm traveling with work very hard and volunteer to coach a bunch of kids who don't have the money to pay to participate in the "club" system. I put this trip together as a reward for their efforts.

I worked in Hillfields for years. A bit too long in the tooth for the Kasbah - is it ok, really? Last time I drove by (last month) I couldn't get past as the police had taped the area off when that guy in his 50s had been stabbed in the head - although nothing to do with the Kasbah (just saying!)

A well earned break then, not sure how old you all are but perhaps the Kasbah might be a bit "young" for you

I'm a bit too old for it too but the kids seem to like it

I've got a feeling that our first stop in Coventry may be the most fun of the trip. If you see four "knobheads" that look out of place .. that's probably me, Rafa, Roman or Farley. Please say hello and let us at least buy you a beer! I appreciate the help and advice ( even Rumpo!!)

Get up to the Butts Arena on the Saturday and watch one of the oldest Rugby clubs in England play Rugby.
Very friendly place and will be a few City fans around, also two hotels right next door.
Good night with live band after game then walk up to Earlsdon for a few more beers.

Anybody else doing an 'Oh Jeremy Konko' tune inside their head (a la Oh Jeremy Corbyn) ?
