A Coventry City fan who moved more than 100 miles away from his beloved team ended up in Dorset living on Highfield Road before relocating to Coventry Close.
"I can't get rid of the Coventry connection," said Sky Blues-mad John Lovegrove.
Highfield Road was the name of City's original home ground, and his address there on the south coast had been pure coincidence, he said. But he addmitted to being more conscious of what he was doing when choosing his Coventry Close abode.
The supporter has lived in Dorset since 1998, making a round trip of more than 300 miles for every Sky Blues home game.
"There's actually a lot of Coventry fans down here, mainly in Bournemouth," the 76-year-old said. "But as far as I'm aware, I'm the only Sky Blues fan on Coventry Close."
