    Wasps action

    Would affect the decision makers as well unless they go by bus to games. And who cares about their poxy supporters anyway.

    Wasps action

    There would have to be hundreds of us to do this successfully. About an hour before Wasps home games we sit down across and block the road at all the car park entry points ( and exit points so they cannot swerve us). When / if dragged away by police others take their place. We totally fuck up...

    Ann Lucas

    It’s beyond belief this woman is going to be Lord Mayor. By rights she should be on trial for treason against the citizens of Coventry. And if I hear her start another sentence with ‘ I tell you what ‘ my head will Explode.

    Memorable Sky Blue debuts...

    I was at Bayern away. Had a beer with the injured Bill Glazier in the club house before the game. To be fair to McManus it pissed down before and during the game making the conditions horrendous for saving goals and he was up against DerbBomber Gerd . Muller.

    Memorable Sky Blue debuts...

    I started going regular 66/67 season so have seen many cracking centre halves play for City. The perfect centre half debut saw Larry LLoyd at Derby away 1974. He won every ball in the air just like loads of City centre halves before him. The difference with Lloyd though was that every header won...

    The silver haired guy was having an argument/ heated discussion with a City fan just before the video clip. They were arguing about the money Sisu had put into the club.
