I still love that nick name! But i look back to revies team and marvel - i think southampton have every reason to hate us more than anyone....
But, that was then - this season just avoiding relegation is what we want

Good old days - Norman "bites your legs" Hunter
Buried in the depths of the attic I think I have the autographs of most of Don Revie's team from ca. 1968. Must investigate

See they lost again last night.
Brilliant goal from Majewski.
Loved it every tome Marlon King got the ball he was booed, even picking it up to hand it to someone to take a throw in.

Indeed - and the place where royalty once held court, the place Parliament was held on a number of occasions and one of the most important historical cities in the country (.... and it's not even my home town)
Didn't they used to churn out some sort of metal in that place you come from?

It's a fun story, but historical records show that it probably never happened.

Quite a good site.. Even if you're not from Coventry, or even if you've never been here. Say what you like, but it's a fascinating place to live.
