Coventry City V Coventry Bees (1 Viewer)

Went to Brandon last night for a great nights speedway V Kings Lynn, the atmosphere and crowd were superb a good 2500+ there and the Bees fans made a lot more noise than our lot do at the Ricoh.

Gave me hope that all is not over for our fair City!
 

It's closer than the Ricoh as well!!! I doubt I will stop going up the football though even if the bees become interplanetary champions or however it works in that kind of sport! :eek:

Ah The Bees. Remeber the days you could go to HR and then straight up to Brandon and watch the likes of Nigel Boocock. They were the days! I remember on one occasion going to The Hawthorns, loosing 7-1 Mark Hately scoring our consolation) and going straight to Manchester where the Bees were riding against Belle Veu to cheer us up......They lost:mad::mad:

I remember watching Hasty Humphries fall off a lot in the novice races in the old Boocock days.. Even though it sounds like a name from the Beano he did exist and was really awful.

I remember the likes of Ole Olsen and Mitch Shirra and some awesome team riding, before the vamping up with laid-down engines :facepalm:

Despite there lack of popularity, I'm finding more and more sports in Coventry which (trophy or trophy-less) are better then City.
