I remember it well. It was not a penalty as the tackle/foul was outside the area, Chatterly  think.I don't remember any trouble. it was a great atmosphere. Coop was my most hated Coventry player of all time.

A lot of the Pontoon Bootboys invaded the Coventry end behind the goal.

The first really big following that I can remember.  37000 there that day. Coventry's second biggest crowd of the season after Man. Utd. Their average was about 24000 at the time so I reckon we took at least 13000 maybe more.

Well, I was hardly a boot boy (I was only 15) but I was in their end with a fair few others. As far as I recall, we didn't have any say in the matter and were just shepherded in there much like when I was shepherded with a load of others into the Kop at Liverpool when they thumped us 5-0!
