Coventry

Positives :- New Cathedral is nice, Motor museum is good, Ska music originated there.

Negatives :- Everything else.. You can understand why the Specials sang “This town is coming like a ghost town

2tone originated in Cov, Ska from Jamaica (apologies for pedantry)
 
Remember them having a welcoming party waiting for us in the early noughties in one of them council pubs near Highfield road.. The little Buggers.

A match at Maine Road too where they invaded the stand after we won. Cowards.

Yes, a cup game. We scored in last minute and it all went off. Loads of lads from Nuneaton and surrounds came up that day apparently. I was on holiday on the day of that match unfortunately.
 
I once got a lift back from Highfield Road in the City team coach. Fucking amazing experience.

The city is poor imo, but it should be forgiven. It was brutilised in WW2. Few towns would recover from that.

Some serious dollar on its doorstep though: Leamington, Warwick and Stratford and their surrounding villages, the apotheosis of upper-middle England.
