    Match Thread Coventry City v Southend

    2-1 win, edgy but deserving, in the end. Fingers crossed, eh?

    First ‘Home’ Game Attendance

    Been to Malta a couple of times, well Gozo to be more accurate. The local beer was either Cisk or Hopleaf back then, both disgusting. Nice place and friendly people. Enjoy.

    First ‘Home’ Game Attendance

    No, not for this game. Staying in Brum overnight so I can have a few beers. Hopefully that’s the last time we play each other now for a while. I try to get 3 or 4 games in this season and the odd away game near me, if I can get tickets (Bristol Rovers). Blackpool away in April is on the list as...

    First ‘Home’ Game Attendance

    Ha, I’ll take that. I am not a blue cartoon sheep. I support Exeter City as well, although Coventry were my first team back in1978. I have no connection with the City, I just liked the kit, the one in your avatar, when I was a kid. I was one of only 2 Coventry fans in my school. Ironically, I...

    First ‘Home’ Game Attendance

    So, I was not being optimistic enough. Changing to 8913 as excitement for new season starts. These next 8 days are going to really drag. I still claim my prize.

    You don’t get that in a Devon strip club, just sheared sheep on a stage and a load of farmers picking up the discarded wool off the floor and sniffing it. Bit weird really.

    CCFC supporters club - Coventry Branch

    I’ll be starting the Northam and Westward Ho! Supporters club. I’ll be sat in the dark corner of my local pub on my own, in my Coventry top and my 50/50 scarf (Coventry/Exeter). Easy to spot. Just in case anyone else happens to be in there dressed the same, I’m the one wearing slippers and...

    English or British?

    Devonian first, as this is where my ancestors built their first settlements and they lived in mud huts and hunted wild animals and scavenged in the forests back in the 1970s. English then.

    Old expressions your parents/grandparents used

    My Gran used to say “you’ve got to eat a little bit of dirt before you die” generally after picking food off the floor and putting it in her mouth while winking. I’d stand there in disbelief watching her eat a hairy boiled sweet or a roast potato dropped in the muck and dust of a thick carpet...

    No Interest Whatsoever

    So glad I am not alone when it comes to being completely uninterested in cars. Also on my list would be: Women’s football food and drink. As long as it is reasonably healthy why go on about it and pay stupid amounts of money for wine that tastes just like any other wine or basic foods cooked in...

    Helping out fellow fans Part II

    Great effort. I made a donation today. Other clubs and their fans should take a look at this example. It is encouraging and heartening to see. Proud of the fans/ contributors. Hope all recipients enjoy every minute of this. I may have missed if it has already been said but how many STs will this...

    25/1 to win the title & 9/1 to be promoted

    I’ve got a double on Coventry and Exeter to get promoted. Did it last season but both clubs just missed out on play offs. More confident for both teams this season so hoping for a £2300 payback (or not).

    Kit launch at Coombe Abbey

    Got mine ordered. No problems. I was 192. Didn’t have to queue for long. Only one in front of me so I was in within a minute.

    Kit launch at Coombe Abbey

    Quite like the home kit. Not an embroidered badge (how many washes will that survive). Like it enough to order one. Disappointed we haven’t gone for the 77/78 kit style but live in hope that one day ...... Away kit looks ok but not my cup of tea. Just not a fan of yellow kits. Would hate to...

    Carabao Cup

    Exeter will bring about 400-500. Depends on how their season starts. Not the draw I wanted. I watch both teams. Will probably travel up for this one (home end, of course).

    Goalkeeper

    Christy Pym from Exeter City out of contract. Watch both clubs and he’s certainly no worse than Burge.

    A thing of beauty. Need a cold shower now.
