A few random observations...
On arriving at Car Park C and seeing the 9 Barnes and 5 Ellisons Coaches (instead of the more usual one of each) I felt like a 10 year old kid again, "Oooh mum, look at all the coaches, look, look, look!"... That gave me quite a buzz - I guess I'm easily pleased.
Stating the obvious but - Fantastic support, really fantastic. Would have been orgasmic if they'd managed to score in front of us but sadly was not to be.
As has been said, I was disappointed not to take all 3 points from a very winnable game. If we had not been so clueless in front of goal and had managed to exploit Barry having the freedom of Warwickshire on the right in the second half, no doubt we would have done.
Having said that, I would have been utterly sick had Coventry nicked it at the end. Thanks to a 'worldy' from Belford they didn't. I thought he was solid over all (didn't have loads to do I know). If Liverpool refuse to sell/want too much for Vigs in the summer, could we do worse than give him the no.1 shirt I wonder?
Sendles White is class - FACT!
I thought their number 14 looked pretty useful and from a distance was a dead ringer for David Speedie, especially in that retro 1987 FA Cup Final style kit. It was only when he was substituted (I don't bother with programmes any more) that I realised it was Joe Cole which was rather odd.
I actually quite like the Ricoh Arena itself but a stadium that's only ever a quarter or third full is always going to have an air of sadness about it.
Any way - An enjoyable day out, not dis-pleased with a point, just a shame we couldn't have made it all 3. It was a very solid, competent performance though and I feel pretty good about how things are going at the moment. I guess the fact that we can take 2,500 odd away from home when ensconced in mid table suggests I'm not the only one.
