1) JPT Preston.
2) Blackburn FA Cup
3) Crewe JPT (not because of the result but confirmed what i always knew. With the right owners playing in Coventry we could be great again)

You mean by charging £5 and then promising a trip to Wembley off the back of it?

The legends game where True fans showed loyalty and passion and a genuine show of support for OUR club and where we should be playing our football.

I'm pretty sure the first games at the Ricoh was a 3-0 win over QPR......and IIRC it was a really niggly game because we'd played then in a summer at a friendly tournament in Ibiza which had turned sour.

Memorable games at the Ricoh were few and far between, but there were a few notable exceptions, especially in the first couple of seasons when crowds rarely dipped below 20,000.
Missed the Blackburn game because I was living overseas, but I remember Coleman after describing it as the best match atmosphere he had ever experienced.

Blackburn game was terrific.
Shame we never filled the Ricoh enough. With a decent crowd in there it could make some noise.

It really was that loud, every tackle cheered. Shame Blackburn could only muster 500 of the crowd that night !

Reading 1-1, penalty save at end noise amazing.
Top stadium.
It's bad enough not playing in Coventry, but also not playing the stadium Coventry deserved.
Personally Ricoh is much better than Highfield road.
For final game at Highfield road, I walked from the street I grew up in,went to two pubs I used to go in before and after game.
Finally after a great day, I was yards away from my old street but as I did I looked north and I could see Ricoh in the far distance. I was so proud and could not wait to go there.
SISU gave distroyed all of this, for now.....
BTW my daughter was born 9 months to that day!

The JPT 'adventure' didn't mean a thing to me. I'm not in total denial, but a mickey mouse, condescending comp for lower league clubs wasn't something I was gonna get excited over. I'm genuinely sorry if this offends anyone, but I was glad we were knocked out. It would have saved a lot of hullabaloo and pant wetting if it had been in an earlier round admittedly. Besides, I had already got my home fixtures boycott underway after sisu's seemingly deliberate campaign for relegation during 2011/12 season.
As for best match, bearing in mind I've not had a season ticket at Ricoh so I averaged around 9 -12 home games, the Leeds game where they just edged us out 3-2.

It is also a shame that a lot of people spent most of their time singing about going back to HR and criticising the Ricoh.

That's the one that gets my vote too ... awesome game and a fantastic last minute penalty save gave us the win !
