    Biggest achievement, 87 Cup win or promotion ?

    We most certainly were unfancied. Beeb were creaming all over Venables, Hoddle, Waddle and funniest of all, it was supposed to be the game that Clive Allen got to 50 goals for the season - he scored in the first few minutes to make it 49, the rest is history!

    Biggest achievement, 87 Cup win or promotion ?

    You could be right - vaguely remember drawing a few towards end of season and slipping a few places immediately prior to the final.

    Biggest achievement, 87 Cup win or promotion ?

    Cup win for me. As LG says though we weren’t exactly struggling that season. Wasn’t it our highest ever top flight finish - 7th? Whilst promotion would be a fantastic achievement in itself, let’s not forget its the old Division 3!

    I’ll just leave this here... from a Guardian article Feb 2019 “In total, 2,182 people in the UK have had to be admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) or high-dependency unit (HDU) because of flu since the start of October. That is more than the 2,045 who needed such care in the same period...

    Ipswich Fan In Peace

    That’s the ones. They were absolutely worldy - couldn’t help but like watching Ipswich with them playing. Was so happy when they beat Arse in the cup final 78. Beattie scored right?

    B - Dabo makes that with skills down the touch line, good team play and great finish. Solid goal. D could be in with a shout too but B for me.

    Impact on Local Businesses of CCFC Move to Birmingham

    Why don’t you ask someone at one of the Universities to do some research? Warwick has a business school no? Surely this would be of interest to someone in that field? Anyone on here with any contacts? Could even use anything useful coming out of it to put in front of the various parties...

    Match Thread Ipswich v Coventry Match Thread

    I wouldn’t be against seeing Pask get a few mins in that role should we be comfortable towards the end of a game - though I guess Eccles has been playing that role in the U-23s?
