Went to see the play yesterday with my daughter, who wasn’t even born when City won the cup! She was moved to tears by your performance. Me being a ruffy-tuffy Cov fan of 40+ years or so, only had a lump in my throat (for the whole afternoon!!!) I went to the final, & was telling my daughter that it was all a blur to me, until, on the way back home along the M1, I saw banners hanging off the bridges from Luton, & all the way back home – congratulating Cov for their win! Lo and behold! within 2 mins of the play starting, the same thing was mentioned – I was choking back the tears. Thank you so much for a wonderful afternoon of memories!!
