your right Nick - I reckon he could defo do 45 mins in league 1 - still has pace and knows where the goal is - was going to say football brain - but thinking back.......?

Fabulous afternoon, a huge thank you to everyone involved in making this happen! A really enjoyable atmosphere and spirit, and a special occasion, great effort, well done!

I brought my dad (80), the first time he'd been to the Ricoh, he absolutely loved it!

We saw the heart and soul of Coventry City today, we don't need anyone other than ouselves running our club!

 

[Sky Blue Sheepy]

Fantastic afternoon, at least 5 cracking goals from the 2 teams and a good laugh overall. Just hoping people will stay away from Sixfields regardless of what happens today

 

[ccfc_Tom]

Huckerby was unreal! linesman second half was a right party pooper, whelan was onside by a mile twice!

 

[Nick]

[speedie87]

I'd pay huckerby to come back

 

[shmmeee]

Not really.

Care to justify that at all?

 

[Nick]

I'd pay huckerby to come back

He looks in better shape now and his tan isn't too bad is it?

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Any idea on the attendance then?

 

[ohitsaidwalker king power]

both side stands were virtually full i'd say at least 8000

 

[skybluebeduff]

Jesus wept...what a state.

good.... very good.

 

[skybluebeduff]

5,700 official attendance. Regardless of what they put out 5,700 is the actual attendance

sorry buddy, but the ACTUAL attendance is over 7000, are you forgetting the cash turnstiles!!

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

What was the final score? Lost count

 

[Sterling Archer]

Is there a match report anywhere about the game? Any stand out performers?

 

[Loughborough Sky Blue]

What was the final score? Lost count

8-4 I believe it finished.

hucks was head and shoulders above anyone else on the pitch. Next up was probably a tie between froggy and whelan, who were both still pretty useful too.

Whelan and Huckerby ran the show, de ja vu of the good days. 8-3 it ended up. Hucks 2, whelan 2, froggat 1, the other scorers were the celebs I think.

 

[trick2]

Really enjoyed today!
But feeling really sad that I won't be able to watch any more 'home' games for a while.

Alan Green scored and the other 2 were from players from the Coventry City Supporters Football Club

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

He is brokenhearted from this forum we had a cheeky little discussion about grendel lol

By the way not the guy with the tie lol

 

[ccfc_Tom]

Has the sky sports coverage happened? and did anyone see it?

 

[simple_simon]
