First football game I ever saw was Coventry v Man U. It was David Busst's testimonial (he of worst picture of a broken leg fame). Was a trip with my cub scouts troop. Gascoigne played for Cov and it was also Eric Cantona's last appearance and goals before he retired shortly after. Good memories.
Would still prefer Luton to make it up, if only for this story - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/65695212

I remember going to see them in the FA Cup QF replay at Bramall Lane in, err, 1998?
I was at Uni in Shef and a Cov supporting housemate really wanted to go to the replay. He spent hours trying to get through to the ticket line to buy tickets. Call, engaged, hang up, ring again, etc. I offered to take over for a bit so he could go to the toilet. Got through first time and bought the tickets. He came back from the toilet to see me sitting next to the phone not even trying and was almost apoplectic with rage. He calmed down when I told him there was no point ringing any more as I'd already bought the tickets. #csb
