Coventry City v Derby Protests - Crowd Trouble


Footage of the sporadic outbreaks of violence at the Coventry v Derby game that followed attempts to eject and remove banners from people protesting against club owners SISU (reason later given was that the banners were a "fire hazard"). The fan targeted by the police (for no obvious reason it seems) has since been issued a 3 year banning order. The real antagonists I'd suggest were the stewards, and the police only intervened when things had started to get heated. I'll leave it up to you to make your mind up about what followed. This is Sky TV footage which has also been reproduced by the Coventry Telegraph. Not attempting to glorify anything by posting this - merely trying to make people aware of the incident and also the overall plight of our football club.

Coventry Precinct


A definitive collection of images of Coventry's famous shopping precinct. In addition to my own postcard scans and photos I have been privileged to have been given consent to use a number of other people's pictures in this production. Many thanks to "Allhails" (AH) who gave me permission to use the stunning pictures he took as a schoolboy of the Precinct. In this video they follow the redevelopment proposals and have the month / year they were taken on them. The last one is a marvellous colour shot from April 1957 which shows a completed Upper Precinct with part of Smithford Street still standing where the Lower Precinct would soon be built. To see more click this link: www.flickr.com Following these pictures are a collection of postcard scans and photographs which take us all the way up to St. George's Day 2009. These include 3 classic shots taken in the 1960's by John Weir of a man wearing a sandwich board to advertise Benley's in the Lower Precinct. Many thanks to John for giving me permission to use these. I've also used a couple of pictures of the St. George's Day festivities this year taken by John's grandson, Antony Weir, so many thanks to him also for allowing me to use them. [Photography clearly runs in that family!] John Weir's 1960's Coventry photographs are hosted by Antony in this flickr set: www.flickr.com Antony [generalzorn] has a diverse collection of his own photographs on flickr here: www.flickr.com Last but not least, my thanks to Rob Orland for <b>...</b>

16 May 1987 Coventry FA Cup Winners Beep! Beep!


A friend was filming around Far Gosford Street / Gosford Green in the early evening just after the Sky Blues lifted the FA Cup. He was filming to record scenes of the area before the building of 'Sky Blue Way' and not to capture the celebrating fans. It's a fascinating slice of history that captures some of the jubilation in the city on that historic day.

Coventry City relegated to League One, 21 April 2012


Coventry City's 11 season tenure in the Championship comes to an inevitable end after a completely flaccid final home display against already relegated Doncaster Rovers. In hindsight, a victory for Coventry would have had no significance after Bristol City's victory over Barnsley sealed the Sky Blue's fate. Protests against the club's owners SISU were audible throughout the match and continued long after the final whistle.

Coventry Carol


The Coventry Carol Lully, lullay, Thou little tiny Child, By, by, lully, lullay. Lullay, thou little tiny Child, By, by, lully, lullay. O sisters too, how may we do, For to preserve this day This poor youngling for whom we do sing By, by, lully, lullay. Herod, the king, in his raging, Charged he hath this day His men of might, in his own sight, All children young to slay. Then, woe is me, poor Child for Thee! And ever mourn and sigh For thy parting neither say nor sing, By, by, lully, lullay.

Coventry City V Birmingham City extended highlights 10/3/2012


Full coverage of the match between Coventry City and Birmingham City. The first half was relatively quiet, but the game exploded into life. On 70 minutes after good down the right, the ball came over to Gary McShefferey to head a looping header into the far corner of the net. Only 90 seconds later did the ball come up the other end, and after a Peter Ramage long throw that was misjudged by the Coventry centre back for Marlon King to smartly semi-bicycle kick into the back of the net. Much to the delight of the Blues fans, but not so much the Coventry fans. Coventry were unlucky not to go infront after hitting the crossbar. Then Jordan Mutch was sent off for an elbow on Nimley. After 7 minutes of added time, neither team could find a breakthrough. Thanks for watching, a like is much appreciated. KRO

Coventry Carol - Westminster Cathedral Choir


The traditional Christmas carol "Coventry Carol" sung by the choir of Westminster Cathedral. The "Coventry Carol" is a Christmas carol dating from the 16th Century. The carol was performed in Coventry as part of a mystery play called The Pageant of the Shearmen and Tailors. The play depicts the Christmas story from chapter two in the Gospel of Matthew. The carol refers to the Massacre of the Innocents, in which Herod orders all male infants under the age of two in Bethlehem to be killed. The lyrics of this haunting carol represent a mother's lament for her doomed child. It is the only carol that has survived from this play. Wikipedia.

Robert Shaw Chamber Singers: Coventry Carol


Optimal Sound when viewed in High Quality ( &fmt=18 )... Robert Shaw conducts the Robert Shaw Chamber Singers on July 23-24, 1993. The Chamber Singers and Shaw's Festival Singers were, (at the time when Robert Shaw was alive), arguably the best adult choirs in the world. The blend, along with the overall musicianship, was absolutely incredible: the Bass section was the true foundation of the Singers, with the rest of the sections Tuning to them; the Sopranos would resort to singing Vowels Only during high notes, (they would drop the beginning consonants of the words, thereby achieving uniform-shaped vowels with the rest of the Choir), letting the lower sections carry the whole words; the Altos and Tenors never "over-sang" their parts. I could go on-and-on with compliments about these most superior Choirs in the world! Thank You for listening!

Ipswich Town's dramatic win against Coventry City, January 16 2010.


IF you were one of the estimated 5000 who left early and missed the injury time drama at Portman Road on Saturday, fear not. We have teamed up with Ipswich Town to bring you footage of one of the most memorable conclusions to a Blues match in decades. With Roy Keane's men leading 2-1 as the clock passed the 90 minute mark, thousands made for the exits. But when referee Michael Oliver played an additional seven minutes, they were wishing they had stayed in their seats. Coventry City stunned Portman Road when they equalised through Richard Wood in the 96th minutes - only for Spanish super-sub Pablo Counago to bring the house down with an incredible winner just 12 seconds after the restart.

BBC Timewatch - Blitz - The Bombing of Coventry (1/4)


BBC Timewatch - Blitz - The Bombing of Coventry Documentary telling the story of the most devastating aerial attack in Britain's history and its aftermath. On 14th November 1940, the Luftwaffe dropped thousands of tons of bombs on Coventry, devastating three-quarters of the city centre. Initial panic and hysteria gave way to a renewed sense of purpose, and soon local factories were turning out engine parts which were used to avenge the attack, while the RAF studied the Nazi bombing techniques and used their devastating tactics against them.

It's a sad, sad day for English football, those were the words uttered by Gary Lineker 11 years ago when Coventry were relegated from the Premier League. A decade later, and they have fallen through the trap door again, dropping to the 3rd tier for the first time in 48 years. This video is a slightly tearful goodbye to the Championships longest serving club.
