Perhaps he was trying to shake his foot / leg loose from the person holding onto his leg trying to collapse the maul and in shaking it loose a stamp inadvertently occurred (1m 36-1m 40). I say "perhaps" as I am not convinced by that either but......

In my opinion, Coventry are a solid Championship side. They have an excellent squad, good support, and I expect them to be near the top of the league come next spring. It’s just a shame that some of their supporters appear to be sore losers. Indeed. There seem to be a number posters there regularly intent on portraying themselves in a very poor light.  'Number' of posters - or just one or two who post regularly? I think the overall viewpoint from Cov fans was that they were poor for much of the game against what was a limited but effective game plan from Ampthill.  More frustration at their own team than critical of Ampthill.  Some people, though, should perhaps leave it a day or two before posting their reactions...

Great post mate. I first visited BPA when Jersey were in National 1 and remember being heckled by a small group of home fans who clearly resented their team being beaten by a side they considered inferior to their club. They were a tiny minority and the vast majority of Coventry supporters I met that day and since considered showing proper hospitality to visiting teams and supporters an essential part of the game. I have been lucky enough over the years to play and visit countless other clubs and have had similar experience virtually everywhere - even when visiting Guernsey or the South Stand at Kingston Park. Like Kimbo I NEVER let the minority bad experience spoil my day but its a bit sad that almost a decade since my first visit to BPA this minority rubbish is still a part of the game and perhaps its time for clubs to encourage supporters to report offenders to stewards at the grounds or have them barred from Forums.
