30,000 City supporters managed to get tickets and stood to watch one of the most dramatic FA Cup Finals ever.
However, May 16 1987 was to be our day and with s superb diving header from Keith Houchen and a Gary Mabbutt own goal in extra time, Coventry City won the FA Cup 3-2.
At noon today, Coventry will celebrate the launch of The Coventry Walk Of Fame to honour icons in the City of Coventry and there are plans to make May 16th "Coventry Day"
Make May 16, a day of celebration to remember our football club and our city and raise your glasses.
Let's All Sing Together. Play Up Sky Blues
While we sing together, we will never lose
Tottenham or Chelsea, United or anyone
They shan't defeat us, we'll fight to the game is won.
