Broken Hearted Sky Blue

Well put as this is the lowest I've felt in all the years I've been a City fan.You see clubs moving forwards and prosper whilst we go backwards.
Swansea were on the verge of extinction but look where they are now,and even Southampton and Leicester have been down but are clubs on the up. But we carry on supporting the club but it does half piss you off !

Remember whe Brian Clough was going to come here because he said we were the biggest club in the Midlands now look at us:facepalm:

I know but weve had fun the greatest period of our history feel sorry for you youngsters and the kids:(

My first sky blue memory was the cup win, I was 7, so I'm quite lucky. I get what you're saying though, I live away from Coventry now, but I'm trying to persuade my boy to be a skyblue. It's difficult though when the premier league is rammed down his throat all the time. All his mate's are united or arsenal fans etc. When he wears his city shirt out, his mate's ask him what team it is. Tbf he does proudly state, "it's Coventry city". He went to a few games at the Ricoh, but I won't take him away, and I can't bring myself to go to sixfields.
Real shame.

Thats the problem if and when we come back there will be hardly any kids and they'll be lost forever

I understand the dilemma for you and your lad. Kids now want to wear shirts of Premier clubs,but to be honest it's nearly always been like that.My two sons hardly bother anymore in fact so have a couple of my mates too,they think I'm in need of treatment for still going albeit just away games. you can't win !

My lad is not overly sports mad but is aware of City (diffucult for him not to be!). He saw Moussa's goal on the FL show on Sunday morning and now wants the yellow away shirt. More than happy to oblige - proud moment for me

Why they can go for free at the moment I believe it's dads for a quid at sixfields....

And if you ask nicely you can get in for free..... remember the Hill last week.
Thats why we need to get back to the Ricoh as soon as possible and fill it with kids for aquid etc

Get Clarke on the back, at least if Leon leaves, we're stuck with Jordan!

On the tele last night they were interviewing a guy who had bought his ticket for the Superbowl Final last October. They are selling hospitality packages for $6,000.

I guess I am a supporter and not a true fan as I have not booked a ticket for the FA Cup Final.
