My new uni house in september is just 100 yards from where this used to stand, would've been able to see it at the end of my road. Feels really nice, reminds me of being back at Maine road in a way.
The success and the way football is now is obviously a joy to see for the club, but I can't help but feel more associated with it the way it was back then, and not just City, football in general.
I'm not even old enough to have seen the days of terracing, but I still feel more associated with the way it was. Even growing up watching absolute shit in blue shirts, I felt more associated with it, I pray football goes back to the way it was (to some extent). I've spoken to many Coventry city fans since I've been at uni, my halls were round the corner from the pub there old firm drinks in, and I feel really sorry for them, losing out on their beloved highfield road, and falling down the leagues in a new and unfamiliar stadium. Atleast we were still at our spiritual home when it happened to us. They say moving from highfield road was the worst thing that happened to the club.
