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 "barman" as he pours drinks for the players of Coventry FC. This unique scene captures a moment during their tour of Singapore, where they were sponsored by Malayan Breweries. The team had received cans of beer from the company and decided to take some time out after training to enjoy this thoughtful gift. The image transports us back to April 23rd, 1974, when camaraderie and relaxation were just as important as intense training sessions. The players gather around Milne with smiles on their faces, appreciating the break from their usual routine. It's evident that these moments fostered a strong bond among teammates. This snapshot not only showcases the joyous atmosphere within Coventry FC but also reflects the spirit of sportsmanship in general. Beer and sport have long been intertwined, symbolizing celebrations and shared victories off the field. Dennis Morgan skillfully captures this timeless moment in history through his lens. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it serves as a reminder that even professional athletes need moments of leisure and enjoyment amidst their rigorous schedules.
