Just worried this may have all been in vain without national media coverage. Nothing on Sky Sports or BBC websites. Do they even know about it?

Start sending videos to news organisations folks. This should be one of top headlines on sky sports news at least

You should have done that in London at the FL headquarters. You can march around cov till the cows come home. The powers that be won't give a sh*t. Top turnout tho.

Can you post the links Deano?

Magic82, It has already been on both BBC & ITV news reports.

An excellent turn out, really positive, not a huge issue if it doesnt make the sunday or monday press, more importantly it showed to each other people of coventry can unite against the common enemy. Well done. It was good to march alongside you all and represent afcwimbledon. It was nice to speak with and shake the hands of so many good people today. A great day for Coventry.

Favourite sign I saw today was this:

 

[Jack Griffin]

Shouldn't he be parodied in the uniform of Herman Goering? In my opinion he comes across the same, fat & arrogant!

That's just central though isn't it? I'm talking national.

Anyone watch midlands today? i completely forgot it was on. Good coverage?

 

[johnniericoh]

Brilliant turn out today. Did the city proud! Was worried it would be like 50 people but must have been around 3000?

asked policeman - he said about 3500 (expecting 500 max) - we showed um !!!

A decent 2 minute news item, looked impressive. Will probably repeat it on Monday's Mids Today.

Many thanks for your support.. truly appreciated.

I was right at the back, would say 6000 - 8000 on the march.

As an extra bonus, I've just been for a run at Gosford park and there's no litter at all, you wouldn't know so many people had been there the previous day.

Just to say hats off to the Sky Blue Trust for organising a great event.

I was amazed by the turnout and it just goes to show the passion and pride and how much this football club means to the people of Coventry. Some great speakers and in particular Nellis and all the lads from the Coventry City former players association.

Thank you one and all.....................although this did lead me to drinking in some of Coventry's finest establishments including Weatherspoons, Club Release, The Tudor Rose and finally leaving the Cov Cross at about 1 this morning!!!!!
