Jeffrey Pays Tribute To Skipper's Dad

Town's players have been wearing black armbands as a mark of respect for Pat Herbert - father of club captain Craig - who died last week aged 61 years, after suffering a recent stroke.

Pat was a regular visitor to Butlin Road to watch his son play over his seven years at the club, and manager Billy Jeffrey recalls the pre-match exchanges he used to have with the father of six.

"He was a very approachable and friendly man, and we regularly chatted before games, and he was always extremely knowledgeable and incisive in his views about the game and the team."

Jeffrey added : "Our thoughts are with Craig and his family at this sad time, and we all look forward to welcoming him back to the club."

A Requiem Mass for Pat was held at 11.00 a.m. today at St.Mary's RC Church, Hood Street, Coventry, followed by interment at Canley Garden Cemetery.
