Did you read what Graeme Souness said about our game against ManU,
He was going on Ten Hag even if they win the FA Cup {and the way they got there, they were very lucky} the Manager will still be gone, the decision has already been made, then he said He watched until ManU was 3-0 up and he turned over to watch Liverpool
THEN Steve Perryman, my old pal from the Tottenham Youth Team sent me a less than complimentary message about Manu, I thought "What's he on about?" I turned back over it was 3-3, had to watch the rest after that and Coventry should of won they were on the front foot throughout the entire extra time and looked the better team united, looked shot, they got away with that one. He's right too......cheated, just so it would be Manu and Man City
Oh well ........next year Choccy P will be a Millionaire and this time next year Cov will be back in the Premiership. It says it here in my crystal ball.
Thank for the Ipswich match report......I think we'll have to be on the subs bench Choccy P. as long as you shout "Pot hole" or "Twig" seeing I'm not that good of missing those things these days and fall flat on my back. though my bones are great not broke any so far, but I'm sure there must be an easier way of tasting my bones.

Yes Eustace, a hardworking player, no thrills, but got things done, just like his teams also underated by most City fans at the time.
Liked the Blackburn match report Choccy P.....You singing "Super Super John Eustace" and Kev then goes "Stupid John Eustace" awww I always liked him. John Eustace I'm talking about, though Kev's ok too......though I've never met him, just heard about him from you.

4th draw in a row at Ewood, we are their boggy team
Thanks for the match report Choccy P sad the way it ended, with the FA cheating, though ManU always got their own way, remember what it was like when Ferguson was the manager, no player sent off when they should of done. But as you said we can be proud of the guys, they must be feeling it though. as we all are.
Thank you though.

Just written the report. Glad i booked the day off work. Also worked out how to get on this site on my phone, I realised my phone kept auto correcting my Username.
Yes I agree Choccy P , I can see it now the FA wanted ManU and Man City in the FA Cup Final not lowly Coventry City. I'm pig sick But we can be proud of our team and I'm proud of you fans how you stayed and clapped the players. Well done Choccy Penguin
Oh well I'm feeling better.......good match report though Choccy P. BTW I know a ref who used to ref the games when my Grandson was playing and Rob was the Manager.....I'll have a word, he's retired now but hey for a couple of bob I'm sure he will come out of retirement. Oh and he doesn't like ManU and Choccy P he's called Steve. Everything going for us.

No, Norwich let a two goal led slip, five points adrift, with a better goal difference and a game in hand. Looks tough, but still going.
Oh great Match report Choccy P.....I could see you jumping up and down, honest my tea nearly went all over the place. David went "What what did we just score" "Yes" said his grinning wife. a great day.....and more to come.
I'm going to copy your match report, I just loved it. "Oh now I've said that I have to say I said at the end of the match "I just love it, Love it" I'd turned into Kevin Kegan"
Oh loved the bit about "Semedo sarcastically applauded the decision and finally the moaning arrogant little so-and-so went into the book" ha! Ha!
Thank you Choccy P. XX

"Were the famous Coventry City and were going to Wembley".
The wait for the first VAR meant we had enough injury time to win the games.
Oh wow, I've got so much to say, that 3 or so minutes waiting to see if we'd got the first goal.....we'd been watching it but had to nip out, but we listened to it, Sat In A Measham Car Park having lunch .....anyway back to the 3 minutes we said "This isn't good for our hearts you know....Sims would never hand ball it, it's a goal" but then it was Was he off side? I'm "No of course it wasn't" as we listened to it .....well I know my football, and of course it was a goal then Wolves scored......"Keep the faith" and us fans as well as our fantastic team did......then right near the end Wolves 88th minute scored.....2-1 to Wolves, then 7th minute of extra time we scored 2-2, Sims.....once again .....we wait and wait, though not as long as our 1st goal, Officials!!!! keep the faith I said to David, of course it was a goal and 10th minute of extra time Wright A GOAL 2-3, and "We are going to Wembley, We are going to Wembley" I nearly threw my tea everywhere. Over to Choccy P ......our ginning Reporter.
We even recorded the game......so we can watch it again and again.
Brill match report Choccy P......I had to laugh at the new song, now either we have a busy female or a male fan who's been following every player into the loo and keeping notes. I've got a very vivid imagination.
Oh no Sakamoto out for the season. Thank you for the match report Choccy P. anyway.... well we have to really play well from now on and everyone else rubbish.

Sakamoto has back problems, out for the rest of the season
We got five goals in the end. 5-0 it's was lovely of Simms to hold Sats shirt up.
Margaret watched it on her TV she thought we played well but wasn't happy with the chants, she said we have to cut it out. I can think of the chants she might have heard, but it's just football banter that all footy fans sing .....specially if their club is thrashing the opposition.
Just back from Plymouth after spending the night, so no match report, but a great point, a bit like the one we got at Blackburn, with Wilson scoring, I also stayed the night at that game as well.
