Thought I would bump this thread as Tommy’s book is due for publication next month. Anyone who wants to pre-order the book can use the link below. The date for publishing is Oct 17th. However, if you wanted a signed copy it would arrive a week or two after this date as Tommy will have his first...

Hutch made some money off the brown kit. The players had a sneak preview of the new away kit.Hutch bet the members of his darts team that they wouldn't guess the colour. Nobody guessed brown and I think he made a fiver on the bet!

Thanks for the good wishes. You’re right, the game at Spurs did kick off 15 minutes late. Again, as far as I know, down to crowd congestion in north London. I would imagine that Coventry as the away team would not have been consulted. The late KO was off no use really as we knew we had to win...

I think you overestimate the importance and influence of Jimmy Hill. Why would the police listen to him with no valid reason. Also, would he really be so keen that our game started later? The only combination of results that would have made this a worthwhile thing to do was the one that...

I was at the game you mention above. Man City played us off the pi tch in the first half and we were lucky to be only 2-1 down at half time. What a second half! We were fantastic. I have never seen a better perfomance as you had some team at that time. My favourite ever Cove try game. I asked...

It reads like the guy who has put that together is relying on a report from the Daily Mirror about Hill having the score flashed on the screen (no disputing that, it’s true) and then hear say from Sunderland supporters over the years. I was there, I know what went on. Do you really think that...

During Tommy's years at Coventry, the only serious relegation battle we were in was the one you mention. I would disagree with some of the things that you state as facts. Firstly the game was delayed by a few minutes but that was on the instructions of the referee given because of advice he had...

Bobby Mac is my favourite Coventry left back, even above Stuart Pearce. He complimented Hutch really well and they were a great left side partnership.

Gary Mabbutt scored for both Tottenham and Coventry in 87. I don't know of anyone else. Edit: apologies, just seen several others have mentioned this. Mabbutts goal for Spurs came jus before half time after a mix up between Kilcline and Ogrizovic. Thank very much for all of great responses so...

Hi, a Coventry fan here.I am writing a book on former Man City player Tommy Hutchison. He has been voted as Coventry's best ever player and he is certainly my all time favourite in all the years I have been a fan, having watched us since 1967. I am hoping to put a memories section at the back of...
