Bottom of League One and despite their first win tonight in a sky blue moon, 14 points adrift and a cert for "Division 4" in old money..
7500 at the Ricoh; not so long ago they were with us in "Division 1.".
Blimey - sobering that such a demise can actually happen.

Remember going to Highfield Rd in March 1997. Both teams were in a relegation dog fight and we won 3-1, Hartson getting two and Rio with the other. One of the best away days of my life.

Didn't Ian Wright once say something like "I got fined two grand for calling Coventry supporters wankers. Which I consider money well spent"?

simon.s 11:23 Wed Mar 22 Re: Coventry City I loved their brown kit.
Remember a trip to highfield rd, last game of the season I think, as a lot of people were in fancy dress. Pretty sure the pink panther was there that day.
Yeah I think that was the game in '92 after we beat Man U: I remember witnessing numerous congas up in the stands and a general party atmos despite us already being relegated and losing to Coventry. Still on a high after beating the Mancs.

They'd get a result at our place, guaranteed.

Dion DUBLIN
A proper football club that should be in the top league over the likes of Hull, Bournemouth and Chelsea
The match up there during the Kitson / Hartson relegation escape season goes down as one of my favourite away trips.

Other clubs play in council owned stadium. Newcastle, man city , Swansea, hull city etc. Then there are the holding groups much like orient are teams like arsenal Chelsea, Liverpool etc. Outright owners are teams like palace Sunderland and man Utd. Not every team turn into a Coventry or orient, their are plenty of teams who own the ground who hit rock bottom ie portsmouth
