Nothing to do with that at all - celebrating (or will be) as spent a fair few years living there including secondary school. Have no fond memories of the place at all (except seeing The Smiths at the Poly in 1984 ironically a year after i left the place and moved back to Sale)Don’t understand the celebratory mood. Were it not for Dickov’s goal against Gillingham, or even the sheer bloody fortune of the Sheikh’s investment, this could very easily have been us.
The accent still grates me to this day
Ah, yes, all perfectly legitimate reasons to crack open the jelly and ice cream as a football club succumbs to corruption beyond the fans' control.Nothing to do with that at all - celebrating (or will be) as spent a fair few years living there including secondary school.

It was rated as one of the most violent City's in the UK at that time. Geoff Thompson wrote a great book on his tines working the doors back then called Watch my back.

That and the time they charged the Main Stand from the North Stand Corner.....Ah, yes, all perfectly legitimate reasons to crack open the jelly and ice cream as a football club succumbs to corruption beyond the fans' control.

Coventry move away from the Ricoh and my local probably shuts down.
Talking with one Cov ST holder today seems to think they'll still be here next season. Bloody hope so!

Never been to the Ricoh, but I remember Highfield Road being a sh*thole.
