Last updated : 21 June 2018 By CNS Sport

Former Coventry City striker Ernie Hunt has sadly passed away.

Hunt will best be remembered for his Donkey Kick with Willie Carr in the Sky Blues game against Everton, which was later out-lawed but has since graced many a Match Of The Day video.

Willie Carr told the Wolverhampton Express & Star about Hunt who died aged 75: "It's a very sad day.

"Ernie was somebody that everybody loved. He was a cheeky chappy, he could talk his way into anywhere.

"And he was the type of person that would do anything for you.

"We hit it off straight away. On the pitch we just seemed to know where the other one was. He was so easy to play with.
