CRAZY LEGS 0 Posted December 18, 2010 i live 5 minutes from the ground its not heavy snow,only snowing a little don''t know what the big deal is,probaly get called of because cov is more a bussiness than a football club now, so don''t think the men upstairs will put too much work in.

Davo 0 Posted December 18, 2010 I''m 12 miles from Cov.

Davo 0 Posted December 18, 2010 That would be a real shame for those who have made the long trek across country.The sad thing is that at around 9am it was clear.

Shaun Tilly Lace 0 Posted December 18, 2010 I''m glad I don''t have to face that journey home from The Ricoh. I once travelled all the way to Coventry, only for the match to be postponed about two hours before kick-off. Lovely! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
