Maybe a protest song rather than a football song as such. As good as 3 lions is I would still put it in novelty category.

Maybe something more subtle like "get out of our city".

It's about time for a new version of "Where Have All The Followers Gone".

Hi,

We're a Coventry band who are currently working hard to put Coventry on the map with our music. A rarity, but all 5 members of Russian Gun Dogs are City fans and have been season ticket holders since we were young'uns. Our drummer, during days of his ow austerity even became a programme seller just so he could watch his team.

Last season we were contacted about having an article in the PUSB matchday magazine, but the season went on and nothing came of it. Despite all that's going on, we still believed it a great honour to be in the matchday programme, even if our beloved club has been ripped away from our home town, so we chased it up again this season. This is the response we got:

Hi Guys, many thanks for your emailAs we discussed last year I would be really keen to support you guys as I have in PUSB with other local Coventry bands. Unfortunately after viewing some of your Social Media postings, at this time I personally don't think it would be appropriate to include you in the matchday programme due to the conflict in interest your public anti Sisu stance promotes.I hope you can understand the position and I appreciate that everyone is entitled to there own views and I would like to wish you all the best for the future success of Russian Gun Dogs and again thank you for your interest.Any problems please do not hesitate to contact me.
​

Well, we just thought we'd share with everyone our dissapointment with missing out, but we also wanted to express to everyone our full support of the Sky Blue Trust and the Keep Coventry In Coventry campaign. ACL have a lot to answer for, as do SISU. Coventry City need to be here in Coventry. We, as a City have been synonimous with two great cultures in the 20th and 21st century - Football and Music and both those arts should support each other.

PUSB
SISU Out
ACL Out
Football League Out

we want to support however we can. Its hard to write a football song without it being novelty... 3 lions the only one to my mind that isn't! We're working on a way to do something though. We were on the mainstage of godiva with sisuout on the singer's arm and are having our stages decked with sky blue ribbons.

Mark, we've got our single on itunes and spotify!

I think "We will Survive" suits the situation very well already. Perhaps you could just adapt the words a bit

I can see why you'd be cynical. Our drummer, Kirk, is a regular contributor to this forum and has been for a few years. Our singer bassist and guitarist have all been season tickets holders and regular attendees. We want the Sky Blues in Coventry and want to do anything we can to help. Its not about us, its about our drummers 4 year old who had her first season ticket last year, its about the memories we all share of Far Gosford Street pubs, Thackall Street chanting, 7-1 against Macclesfield, next season will be different, Huckerby hattricks, awful Michael McIndoe, McPake's sick note, Page and Doyle, beating the best and losing to the worst. Its about a club that started in a factory and went on to beat Bayern Munich and win the FA cup. Jimmy Hill and Sky Blue Sam.

Jimmy gave us the Sky Blue Revolution, this is the Sky Blue Revolt. #KeepCovInCov

I guess you've got to find the user with the Russian Gun Dogs links in his signature.

I can't claim that it isn't about those things (although if I was being cynical I would suggest that your post sounds like someone desperately proving themselves to be a SkyBlue - which it's clear that you are), but I'd say you're also posting to self promote!

Anyway, don't mean to cause a fuss - I think we call it 'banter' on here don't we? #keepcovincov

No desperation. Just got lost in the moment!
