Good friend of mine is a Coventry City fan from birth and had a Hibs ST for seven or eight years while living in in Edinburgh. Villa are Cov's most hated rival (although the reverse isn't true) – I think the only only person more up for the game than him is Joe Newell.
Always a strange rivalry the Coventry one. I think we started being rivals due to the fact all the other Midlands clubs were outside the Prem bar Villa and Coventry for a long time. After Birmingham and West Brom came back the Cov rivalry was forgotten about on our part but not there's. I still hear them sing about Villa on TV while i've never heard about us sing about Coventry. The funny one is Wolves Villa who the media would have you believe is a big rivalry for viewing figures but no-one really cares about that from either side.
