    Match Thread Swindon Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 26th Sep

    Have always felt that sometimes one player can galvanise a team and bring it all together, and Chris Marsden did just that. He completely transformed us during that spell and it was unbelievable that he wasn't signed.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Notts County Match Thread - Saturday 5th Aug

    Leamington Pete checking in from the beach in the South of France. 35 degrees, cold beer in place, just need three points from the lads. Come on City!!!

    Granted , hypothetical , i know ...

    Got some fantastic memories of HR, particularly big night games with massive attendances, but we had some awful days too with lousy performances and 7,000 crowds. One of the problems with people's opinions of the Ricoh is that in the last 10 crap years we haven't had enough good experiences. But...

    Some good old names here

    Was just going to mention the 3-0 win against Utd myself. My United supporting mate worked in a bank in Leamington and recognised Chucky when he came in one day (he was by then working for Securicor or similar). They had a good chat about that game.

    You really need to get rid of that nanny.

    Was this the first Suday game ?

    I remember going to this. Played on a Sunday because of the national power shortages wasn't it?

    how wrong we were, can anyone find their comments?

    If we were at HR now and playing Premier League football (well you can dream) we would undoubtedly be looking to move. The Ricoh in the PL, full every week, fanzone in the exhibition hall, Sky Blue everywhere.... We'd all love it then. Anyway, back to reality. League 2 fixtures out tomorrow...

    Gould 71

    A mate of mine played under him at Cardiff and hasn't got a bad word to say about him. Great bloke to play for apparently.

    An Evening With Mark Robins + Kit Launch

    A kit launch event should be a free, bring the kids / meet the players affair, with the aim of creating a bit of hype and selling lots of kits. I bet this won't go ahead due to lack of take up.

    Chris Stokes signs 2 year deal!

    Blimey. It's going to be a long couple of months.

    Coventry Dynamite

    Very good. See what you did there. Anyone under 20, ask your parents.

    Cian Harries to Villa

    Hardly "going out". He's nipped in to garage forecourt Sainsbury's on his way back from training. My (Cov fan) son is also at Villa and we do exactly the same thing at the same place.

    OOH TO OOH TO BE OOH TO BE A ......

    Always remember the "score in a minute" chant - and we did too! Always thought it strange we never seemed to sing it again after that game.

    My 26 years of being a Coventry City fan

    Never known one player transform a team like Marden did for us during that spell. Bloody Phil Neal.

    Congrats to Leamington

    Blimey, that's one heck of a generalisation. Do the survey yourself did you?

    Congrats to Leamington

    Yes a great afternoon at the New Windmill yesterday. Spotted quite a few Cov fans there who like me drop in to see The Brakes occasionally. Next Wednesday it's off to Molineux for the Birmingham Senior Cup final against Wolves to end a good season.

    ST sales

    Saw today Fulham's early bird price is £299 for possible Premier League football. Wow, what a bargain ours are. League Two for, ah yes, £299.

    Your very own "Overcome with emotion" thread...

    Unbelievable that this was twenty two years ago. Took my new girlfriend for a "day out in London". Walk round Windsor, lunch by the river, and "oh look, Coventry are playing up the road this afternoon". Her first ( and last ) game which she never recovered from. What a great afternoon. Drove...
