Photos from The Coventry City Football Book by CET journalist Derek Henderson aka 'Nimmo', my Xmas present in 1970 (along with an orange and a lump of coal to suck on)

Love the fag!

The West End...again

Ah, those were the days...

Going from top of the table to bottom in a year!

Wright and Agyei were bad but Jesus was far worse IMHO

Mate of mine got community service for lamping someone. He had to spend time picking up litter and suchlike. Bet he'd have rather gone on the radio.

My cheque is in the post! Fnar, fnar

Did they get Geoff Foster in off the street one day? Stumbled across him commentating on Wasps recently when he obviously had a heavy cold and it was comedy gold. I think the average cat would do a better job. I also love how touchy Eakin gets when a caller suggests they could be more robust...

Warwick Uni students union are offering a ticket to Wasps v Toulouse for a tenner with free transport there and back! Tickets for all other games this season for a tenner too. A good way of generating interest but certainly a loss leader.

That's the trouble with this binary opposition between superfans and the glory-hunting 'most fickle fans in the country' in that anyone who hasn't so far attended a Checkatrade match is automatically publicly shamed. Having spent around £700 on season tickets and car park passes I have to date...

I have been plucking up the courage to tell the wife to stop telling me what to do for years! Soon, one day soon...

Not sure about that, nor content with blowing Wasps at every opportunity they regularly regale us with the latest developments at, err, Birmingham Moseley RFC.

Always happy to admit it when I'm wrong!

How annoying that someone who supported this club since 1969 in the top flight, saw European football once (would have been twice but for Heysel), saw us win the FA Cup, saw us signing Robbie Keane, Dion Dublin, Gary McAllister, Craig Bellamy and Mustapha Hadji, stood in crowds over 30,000...

The CCFC/Cov RFC baked meats will coldly furnish forth the Wasps/CCC marriage table, gleefully reported by the Telegraph and BBC CWR

Was injured even!

Those that believed Willis were injured would probably also believe it if Fisher told them the cheque is in the post and that he won't come in their mouth.

I am astonished at how lightly Wasps' part in our demise is taken. I wonder what the reaction would have been if, say Fulham, had slipped in on the blind side and taken over the ground built for us, then the academy intended for us. Yes I know SISU largely got what they deserved but CCFC were...

Shows what Sisu have achieved. We have gone from Ranson apparently wanting to resist a bid from Liverpool for Thomas, to having our young talent poached by the mighty, err, Brentford! Who'll be coming in and picking us off in a couple more years? Dynamo Long Itchington?
