Thousands on the March
Proud to be from Coventry and really proud OF Coventry today. We won't change their minds but have shown the whole world what we think of this ludicrous decision to play in Northampton. Football League hang your heads in shame! |

Another video.
One Lady Godiva was from Poland - that must be a first? She wanted to do it completely in the buff and the organisers had to talk her out of it |

Two ex-police horses by all accounts so used to big crowds. I doubt when the lass from Poland came to these shores she ever thought that she would be re-enacting the role of Lady Godiva leading 5,000 Coventry folk on a march for justice! Only in Coventry - what a great city it is!
My understanding is that one of the parties previously interested in buying the club is still very much interested in doing so, it's just a case of untangling the SISU web of ownership [a very BIG 'just' unfortunately!] Those who are in regular correspondence have sent links of the clips to show just how frustrated the fans are with the current mess. Fingers crossed it gets resolved before the club dies. |

Sorry to disappoint people - but I'm afraid that was just a story "doing the rounds". I got it straight from the horses mouth (pun intended), having spoken to them (the girls that is, not the horses) that it was untrue. (even the offer of guaranteed front-page coverage in all the national papers didn't work!) |

We'll agree to differ on that one Tony, anyway, I give you Marzena - Coventry's first Lady Godiva from Poland. Did us proud yesterday along with Sam.

Have you tied a Sky Blue Ribbon yet? I believe the Sky Blue Army was out in force doing the City Centre last night. The idea came from 'Trampbeater' and has been adopted by The Sky Blue Trust.
Trampbeater's Blog
Word also has it that a song is in the works and a Lady Godiva calendar is being discussed that will raise money for the Sky Blue Trust and a breast cancer charity.

Ribbons Everywhere video.
Lieutenant Pigeon have just released this song to support the Sky Blue Trust's Tie A Sky Blue Ribbon Campaign. I collaborated with them on the lyrics so blame me if you don't like it
The band isn't taking a penny from it and the SBT is free to do what they like with the song. Suspect another video may be filmed in the near future hopefully with thousands of the Sky Blue Army bouncing on the spot in the background. |

Been reading on Facebook that the council have removed a lot of the ribbons, so petty! |

Wish I'd been in Cov, but was away for the week - absolutely fabulous turnout and thanks for the video. Just watching all those people marching past the camera shows what real football fans are. |

Can also confirm that the City Centre is still totally ribboned - area around the Ricoh is being done tonight apparently.

... and also nearly every lamppost around by the station. I know Coventry used to be famous for its ribbon industry, and I guess it still is!! |

Yet yesterday on the radio they advertised for fans to buy season tickets to support the club stating children 7 and under go free if accompanied by an adult.
