Feel sorry for Coventry City fans.

Absolutely disgusting how that clubs been treated.

People of a certain age will recall Coventry as possibly the first 'modern' club when under the initial management and then (later) Chairmanship of a certain Jimmy Hill and his 'Sky Blue Revolution'

He had a reputation as an all-round innovator in football and he changed the way clubs thought and how players themselves were treated by helping to get rid of the maximum wage

He also commissioned the first English all-seater stadium, the Ricoh Arena

Another CCFC who had a famous FA Cup win (with former Cardiff City star Dave Bennett in their side)

I sincerely hope it eventually gets sorted eventually; a grand old club and we don't need anymore MK Dons appearing

sorry but the first all seater stadium was not the Ricoh Arena it was Highfield road thirty odd years earlier..

the idea was abandoned after Leeds smashed hundreds of seats up but was re introduced after the Taylor report { Hillsborough }

It will be interesting if Birmingham draw Coventry in the cup away

The birmingham fans will have to sit in the away end of there own stadium
