Old Wheatleyans at large An unofficial reunion for Old Wheatleyans took place at Wembley when Coventry City FC met Oxford United for the 2017 Checkatrade Trophy Final A sizeable percentage of the 40,000 Coventry City FC supporters present must have had a connection with Bablake, judging from the social media posts viewed. We are delighted to share the celebrations, after a 2-1 win over Oxford United reignited the euphoria of 30 years ago, when the club won the FA Cup final and brought such good cheer to the city.
