I should have put “getting stronger” at the end of my previous post to avoid alarm bells ringing. Learning to stand on my own two feet was what I was trying to say. The support I’ve had on here, which can be such a toxic platform sometimes, means the world to me. Thank you all 💙

I’m not going all “my friend” or any of that 💩, and like all of us, as human beings, he has failings and possibly regrets. But in my experience, in this business, few come close to Slaven Bilic. A class act. 💙

This has taken my breath away 😞. One of the most easy going big hearted men you could ever wish to meet. It was a pleasure calling Big Ced’s goals, because I know how much they meant to him. He and Robbie Keane were unplayable for the majority of that 99/00 season. RIP
Coventry City are deeply saddened to learn of the death of our former striker Cedric Roussel, at the age of just 45.
Cedric played 43 games for the Sky Blues from 1999-2001, scoring 11 goals.
Our condolences are with his family and friends at this very sad time.

I wasn’t around when JH was in his pomp, and altho George and John gave us our greatest day ever…to this point…if MR gets us into the Premier League, with everything he’s had to deal with, the case to call him our best manager of all time is a strong one? Isn’t it?

Seeing Usain Bolt today reminded me of a Seb Coe story from years ago. Turned up at the wrong entrance at Chelsea allegedly. Gave it the full “Do you know who I am?” Steward replied: “Well it won’t take you long to get round there, then, will it?” 🤣🤣🤣
