I remember turning up at the West End, Highfield road for a new season in Division One to discover City had bought Ernie Hunt without my knowledge, I could not believe it, there he was in a sky blue shirt. Wolves best player, our bitter rivals had sold Ernie to Coventry City. Ernie became a legend very quickly with the West End crew! One of my all lifetime top players for Coventry City. Small and round but knew who was around, fantastic striker of a football. GBY Ernie Hunt, a City Legend!

So many memories of city, could name most of the players in the clips. Good Times on the way back again.
"He's Fat he's round
He's worth a million pound
Ernie Hunt, Earnie Hunt.."
And he was one of US at
BRISTOL CITY FC...
REST ON BIG FELLA...❤❤❤❤
First game I ever saw was Coventry City v Newcastle United 1-0 the goal scored by Ernie Hunt from the penalty spot. 22/11/69
One of my Coventry City heros
And mine, was in the West End when he scored the “donkey kick”, so memorable after all these years
A superb player.
What a class player. Ledbury Town Legend.
RIP Ernie, PUSB.
If it was Moon River it was a recording of Ernie singing from many years ago. That and Catch a falling star were his signature songs.
Maybe somebody can explain the relevance of the background music. Was very disappointed with the tribute at The Ricoh yesterday
Brian, I couldn't make the match. What was it that disappointed you?
