Re: Coventry v Burnley 75-76 Season.
I remember it well. The ball was up the other end of the pitch and Alan Stevenson was hanging on to it to ensure we got a point. And yet it was always unlikely that the game would go beyond the free kick.
Shocking decision from the linesman, similar to one on the Turf against Watford in 2005/06.

Re: Coventry v Burnley 75-76 Season.
I'd travelled up & stayed at my Grandmother's in Rawtenstall the day before.
Went up to Haslingdon in the morning & got one of the coaches from there.
A couple of days before my 18th!

Re: Coventry v Burnley 75-76 Season.
I wonder if Tommy Hutchison ever regretted not wearing shin pads?.
Two well taken goals from us and a crap decision from the lino who wouldn't look out of place with today's officials.

Re: Coventry v Burnley 75-76 Season.
I miss goalkeepers wearing green shirts and team shorts and socks… and looking for all the world like they belong to the same club as the outfield players.
My love for the Claret V remains, the first kit I saw my team wear.

Bit of a colour clash for the Coventry goalie!

Re: Coventry v Burnley 75-76 Season.
Geniuine question… why does the keeper clash? Are we talking for the colour blind?
I see no problem with the keeper clashing with his team-mates below the waste, where any part of the body can legally play the ball and all that matters is that a foul was committed by a member of the Coventry team, even in the rare situations where individuals cannot be discerned.

Agree 100%..........Some great reminders recently of the top-class players to represent our Club down the years.South West Claret. wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2024 7:58 pmThanks for the link I enjoy some of these old games from years gone by.
One game I'd specially like to see again is the Burnley v Liverpool home win from April 1966.......Don't know if you can oblige, gawthorpe_view ??

Re: Coventry v Burnley 75-76 Season.
Was that the 2-0 game where Ralph Coats scored that cracking goal after picking the ball up in his own half and then running right through with Ron Yates and Tommy Smith bearing down on him.Royboyclaret wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2024 12:56 pmAgree 100%..........Some great reminders recently of the top-class players to represent our Club down the years.

He got to the corner of the penalty then chipped a magnificent ball over Tommy Lawrence's head into the corner of the net.
A great goal, don’t think it was televised but would love to see that goal again.

That's the one........and my recollection is of an equally good first goal from Willie Irvine.South West Claret. wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2024 1:27 pmWas that the 2-0 game where Ralph Coats scored that cracking goal after picking the ball up in his own half and then running right through with Ron Yates and Tommy Smith bearing down on him.

Re: Coventry v Burnley 75-76 Season.
Ralph's goal was one of the best I've seen. He picked up a long ball from Sammy Todd just inside the Liverpool half and ran 40 yards before beating Lawrence all ends up at the Cricket Field End. Willie's early opener at the Bee Hole was an unchallenged header from about 8 yards out following a free kick from Alex Elder.

Re: Coventry v Burnley 75-76 Season.
Would the 'League Liner' have been running for this game? I recall going to a few games on it, just can't recall if this was one of them.
Re: Coventry v Burnley 75-76 Season.
No the League Liner didn't run for this game - there was no special or charter train put on, just the coach which left Burnley at 9.30 am and would have set you back the princely sum of £2.cricketfield73 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2024 2:09 pmWould the 'League Liner' have been running for this game?

Re: Coventry v Burnley 75-76 Season.
I'll have a look but there's very few home games available from that era due to Bob Lord banning the TV companies from Turf Moor.Royboyclaret wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2024 12:56 pmAgree 100%..........Some great reminders recently of the top-class players to represent our Club down the years.
