Goodbye to Highfield Road: Coventry City 6 Derby County 2
WOULDN'T be right having a video section and not having footbage of this game.
The Sky Blues destroyed Derby County in front of a packed house at Highfield Road on April 30, 2005.
The club has been playing at Highfield Road since 1899 and was the first all-seater stadium in England.
And the fantastic performance by the team was followed by an emotional farewell to the old ground.
Led, of course, by the incomparable Jimmy Hill...
Since then, Coventry City turn out at the Ricoh Arena while Highfield Road has been dismantled and turned into a housing estate.
