Oooh, some of them weren't very good!! My favourites out of those lot - Froggatt, Nilsson, Keane, Whelan, Hadji, Quinn, Ndlovu and Oggy. Missing Huck and Dublin and also McAllister.

Lol... some better than others for sure! But just a trip down memory lane!

The picture in post #2 ........ John Salako looks like he's auditioning for a part in the Karate Kid!

Our kits in the 90s were class

Also the Arsenal mascot in the Hadji photo played against us in the 6-1 match. That's scary!

Premiership Years. Ah. I see..... Senior moment!

 

[Sky Blue Kid]

Thing is HH. These are "Whipper Snappers".....Extend it back to the start of Coventry City FC in the 1st Division.....NOW we're talking footballers. Glazier, Curtis,etc,etc. :claping hands:

Nilsson was immense, so was hadji and chippo! But let's be serious, Jarni was the best, the way he graced the pitch! *cough, cough*

 

[Houchens Head]

Throughout the "Premiership Years", City were shite IMO - always struggling for survival. The odd player stood out now and again but as a whole, the team never really took off. If anyone can say different, then why is it we have never finished above 6th place in 43 years! The best teams we had were way back in the early - mid 1960's when we were promoted to the old 1st Division. OK, so we didn't set the football world alight, but the players played with pride. That's why they're still proud to be part of the Former Players Assoc. How many players of "recent" years are members?

I'll not have a word said against Jarni. In all of the time he spent at the club, he never put a foot wrong

92/93, 93/94, 97/98, 99/00- no
94/95, 95/96, 96/97, 98/99, 00/01- yes

Not alway struggling for survival - 55.55% of the time.

Was it really any better during other top flight decades?
