The good old days when we didn't waste 7m on players! And fans were happy!

This team lost 0-3 at home to Swindon in Jan 2015, the team isn't that bad but we were 2 down after 20 mins, it was a small 7,000 crowd this was my lowest point as a Cov fan, we were totally outclassed.

My lowest point came at Rochdale away under Robins actually , one of his first games back .. lost 2-0 , we were just doomed to relegation , Rochdale fans laughing at us , city fans cheering sarcastically with a shot , Rochdale fans joining in ... we had 5 shots 0 on target

Besides the 4-1 thrashing at Bristol Rovers, the nadir for me was the 2-1 defeat at Bury. Midweek and utterly miserable with everyone in the back 4 actually a CB.

I barely remember some of those names (Rawson, Turnbull, Reilly). Rose was decent, but didn't quite fit with our play. Always thought Kelly-Evans looked decent (Dion, not Declan) but has played at Non League level since leaving. Tudgay...Jesus. Slow, never scored and picking up his last pay cheque.

Think losing 2-0 to Southend after 2 early goals was worse I seen it. I never leave early but wanted too that night.

I was away in Thailand at the time, remember thinking how grim the scoreline looked

The PTSD still runs strong in our fan base. No joke, at the start of last season when we were winless for a while - someone sent a text to CWR discussing the possibility of Russell Slade coming back to, I quote: 'Steady the ship'. I have a theory that it was @Earlsdon-Loyal-Blue - although he denies it.
It isn't really surprising that we don't know how to behave when we actually sign some decent players. The level of trauma is disturbing. Probably understanding given what we've had to put up with over the years.

I sat my entire flat down to watch this in the first year of uni in an attempt to convince them all that supporting a non premier league football team is good fun...
Needless to say they all thought I was a complete mug

Well this time 6 years ago we were pleased to have lured Michael Doyle back to the club and our big international signing was Biamou

With Michael doyle came Mark McNulty as Doyle who played with him at Pompey was instrumental in getting him to join us

Clearly you didn't think much of him, given his name is Devon.
Rawson is still only 27!

Evidently such a grim period of history I have wiped it clear from my memory.
So bleak.
Totally conditioned to accept mediocrity at that point, I was actually quite excited at the prospect of Rose coming in for LA Galaxy II
McBean was LA Galaxy II I think.
Andy Rose played for Vancouver
