Your personal City cult hero (4 Viewers)

[Ccfcisparks]

Who is your personal city cult hero? Someone who didn't necessarily pull up any trees, but you enjoyed watching and they stuck in your mind since.

For me its probably Lameiras. Really enjoyed watching him.

Marcus Hall, I'm still bitter at Coleman for leaving him on the bench for his last game, although we did get battered by Watford so maybe it was a favour

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Good question to me the obvious answer in recent times (within last 10 years) is probably Matty Godden

Stern John

Always felt like he got alot of unfair criticism. Could have got more from this guy i feel, playin to his strengths better than we ever did and giving him more starts.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

My answer isnt regarding “didnt pull up and trees”

 

[Levship20]

Kevin Gallagher

 

[AOM]

Aron Gunnarsson

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Frank Moussa

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Moussa is a good shout.

 

[Covkid1968#]

Snowy Whelan

Tommy Hutch, no question. He just had incredible skill, great character too and was with us for years

 

[Williescar]

Bill Glazier

 

[SkyBlueCharlie9]

David Smith for a couple of years... touch of the Sakamoto's about his wing play albeit on left.
Also Chris Marsden for a few months.

 

[JimmyHillsbeard]

Kevin Gallacher virtually the only reason to carry on watching Coventry under Butcher and particularly Don Howe.

John Gayle - him turning out for a top flight club always gave me the encouragement that I could make it in the game

I think it's fair to say he did 'pull up trees'.

I know someone who was at blues with him.
They sometimes had to give him separate routines to do away from the main training drills due to his inability to do the basics.

Incredible how he made a career from it.

 

[Cally Fedora]

A few through the years and also, not always the best players.
Hormantschuk
Regis
Furlong
Rosario
Tabb
Grimmer
McDonald
Clarke
Eccles

 

[clint van damme]

Dennis Wise

Again, he definitely 'pulled up trees'.

Leon Clarke or Jordan?

Or maybe even Nathan

I can vividly remember the Cov Tel headline “Gayle blows in”. Hmmmm, more of a gentle breeze.

Unsung - Lloyd McGrath, the other end - Dion Dublin

Moussa probably scored the greatest range of Coventry goals of any player in our history.



This doesn't even include the goal away at Preston with his weak foot...

 

[Levship20]

Trevor Peake

Leon

Leon Clarke is probably too good for this! He was the best player in the division that year, better than Wilson at the time.

 

[fernandopartridge]

In recent times it is probably Liam Kelly, he was absolutely instrumental in two promotions (in my opinion significantly more effective than Doyle in midfield in L2) and even played a part in getting within a penalty shootout of a third.

 

[clint van damme]

Any time there's a thread like this people always list answers that are the total opposite of what's being asked

Did not pull up any trees folks, DID NOT!!

We've currently got someone considered one of our greatest ever players and an FA Cup winner for fucks sake

 

[Skybluecol]

George Boateng in our Prem years & John Fleck as a more recent choice
