    Dennis Lawrence

    Shame. MR mentioned in one of his recent press conferences that members of his staff were being burnt out. Could be related?

    Sakamoto Injury

    Agreed. Neither covered themselves in any glory.

    Sakamoto Injury

    Thomas was trying to block their player off to give Wilson an easier catch/ punch, but Wilson never came. In that instance, the Preston player just wanted it the most.

    This is not nostalgia but…

    Did Robinson just never take to him, or was there a falling out? Oxford fans seemed confused by his lack of minutes.

    Debuts

    Can't remember if he scored on his debut or not, but was convinced that Tony Andreu was going to be class for us. Seemed to fizzle out, then did his ACL.

    Segregation

    I think the official line at the time was ‘overcrowding in the concourse’. I could be wrong though.

    Has anyone bought this scarf and can show me what it actually looks like?

    As above, it’s in a silk material. There’s a very nice red/ black chequered bucket hat in the club shop in town. Would be decent in home colours.

    Adam johnson ( nottingham panthers ) dies in freak accident

    I play ice hockey myself, have done for 15 years. It’s not a deliberate act, just a very unfortunate and freak incident. Very sad.

    Oxen make the current Coventry Rugby Club kits funnily enough. Seem like decent quality. https://www.coventryrugby.co.uk/2023-24-training-kit-release-with-oxen/

    The CBS

    It’s just to create access for the people with standing tickets on the pitch. They do it for every gig up there. They’ll be put back

    Rob Gurney v Clive Eakin

    Yes, he did the Norwich home game.

    Transfer Rumour Dabo / Rose / Kelly gone?

    Could well be Kelly’s choice. Would rather be a regular for a league 1/2 side, rather than a bit part player in the championship. I’m sure he didn’t expect this late run of games for the club, and looks like he is playing with no pressure. In contrast to the Wrexham game, where he looked tight...

    Rob Gurney v Clive Eakin

    Rob Gurney fell out with Strachan didn’t he? Strachan refused to talk to CWR in Gurney’s latter days due to criticism he received, so the BBC moved him over to WM. Never really liked Adam Dent. He was a Wolves fan, and could be quite patronising about CCFC. Eakin is a Tranmere fan, but I...

    Town Wall Tavern is the pub you are thinking of.

    Birmingham attendance

    Think we took 43k to Wembley for the trophy final, and 37k for the playoff final

    Two Rotherham tickets

    Some of our away followings in the last seasons of the premier league were very small. Went to West Ham the season before we got relegated (Keane, McAllister) and there can’t have been more that 300 City fans there. Lost 5-0.. Also Bradford away the next season we probably took around 500 on...

    how many famous cov fans are there?

    Regarding the Enemy, only the bass player is a City fan. The singer is from Birmingham and not overly into football, and the drummer is a Man Utd fan. They took on the guise of all being City fans though, in order to build local support.

    It’s always bittersweet looking at old photos of Cov. So much history, but such a shame what we have lost.

    Most Shocked About A Result

    Bad: The game at Crystal Palace where we were 1-0 up in the 90th minute and lost 2-1. Was early in the season, but knew we were in big trouble.
