		Ogrizovic became a legend at Coventry, and played his 600th game for Coventry and his 719th in total against Liverpool on the 1st of April 2000.
		Steve was a fine goalkeeper in his own right - as witnessed by the remarkable career he subsequently had with Coventry, but his chances of displacing the England international were always going to be very slim.
		Steve did play against Derby & Leeds in March 1978 but Clemence's form and lack of injury meant that the giant reserve-keeper made only another 2 more appearances between the posts in first-team matches over the next three seasons.

		STEVE OGRIZOVIC, Coventry City’s 42-year-old goalkeeper, was cruelly submerged in slick Arsenal’s relentless second half blitz after he threatened to frustrate Arsene Wenger’s UEFA Cup heroes.

	MA honour for 'Big Oggy' - pride of Coventry City
		On Thursday, 20 November at 2.30pm in Coventry Cathedral, Coventry City's Steve Ogrizovic, the longest serving goalkeeper in the Premiership, is awarded an Honorary Master of Arts degree by Coventry University, for his services to sport.
		But Steve's role has been just as important in adversity as well as in triumph, being a key member of the Premiership's perennial houdinis, who year after year manage to avoid 'the drop', remaining one of the longest serving teams in the top flight.
		Steve is also far from the tabloid image of a footballer, with qualifications in accountancy, recreation business studies and a Certificate in Management studied at Coventry University.

	icCoventry - Academy's successes are tinged with sorrow
		Steve Ogrizovic relishes almost every aspect of his role as manager of Coventry City's Academy - but there is one massive exception.
		While only an elite few of the youngsters will graduate from the Academy with first-class honours, however, Ogrizovic and his fellow coaches are determined that every one will emerge as a citizen that Coventry can be proud of.
		The Academy is now based at the Alan Higgs Centre in Allard Way, and Ogrizovic is spearheading the campaign to raise £250,000 ensure that they do not have to downgrade to Centre Of Excellence status which would put them at a huge disadvantage compared to their Midlands neighbours.
