Cheers... team manager Gordon Milne acts as "barman"
Cheers...team manager Gordon Milne acts as " barman" to pour the drinks for the players. It is not a normal training session but the Sky Blues have been sent some cans of beer from Malayan Breweries who are sponsoring their tour of Singapore where they play games against Derby County and Everton. So this week they took time out to sample the gift...after training of course.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic photo print, team manager Gordon Milne takes on the role of a jovial "barman" as he pours drinks for his players. This unique scene captures a moment of camaraderie and relaxation amidst the intense training sessions of Coventry FC. The photograph was taken during an extraordinary time in April 1974 when the Sky Blues were on tour in Singapore, sponsored by Malayan Breweries. As a gesture of support, they received cans of beer from their generous sponsors. Eager to show their appreciation, the team decided to take a break from their rigorous routine and indulge in these refreshing beverages. Although it may seem unconventional for professional athletes to enjoy beer during training, this lighthearted interlude allowed the players to bond and unwind together after putting in hours of hard work on the field. It is evident that even amidst their dedication to football excellence, they knew how important it was to foster team spirit off the pitch as well. This snapshot not only showcases Coventry FC's memorable Singaporean tour but also offers us a glimpse into the vibrant sporting culture of the 1970s. The image serves as a reminder that sports are not solely about competition but also about building relationships and creating lasting memories with teammates.
