Yeah, they did mess up the ticketing/season tickets (hmmmm familiar....) for that game massively if I recall too....
I had a ST, but it was not ready/usable (some issue like that).... Had a few free academy tickets or would not have been able to gommmm

The memories flooding back.

One of the best ever nights at the stadium. Incredible atmosphere. Great to have Coventry fans behind both goals.

503 days away the first time(!), slightly shorter during the St. Andrew’s stint. Incredible how far we’ve come since those dark, dark days. Worlds apart.

We do have a lot to be grateful for as things stand (even though I still don’t have my pissing shirt ).

You have a shirt you wear specifically for urinating?

No. They said they DON’T have a shirt for urinating.

But do you have one for No2’s?

Blimey and Keith Stroud reffed...some names in those 2 teams that have had good professional careers too

I remember feeling so deflated at how empty that second game back felt. Gone alright since on the whole though thankfully

Yeovil now National League South. Quite the drop.

that could have been us. League 2 playoff final will always be a pivotal season in our rise again.

It was awful, about 9000 is my memory. First game I took my youngest too. She wasn’t impressed.

Hadn’t they just come down from the championship that season too?

I thought it was 10-11000 for Yeovil.

Nobody was expecting another sellout, but it was a pitiful crowd.

jon egan, Bradley Dack, Kourtney Hause. Some decent players in that Gills team too

It was 11,085.

An embarrassing crowd a week after one of the best Coventry matches in living memory.

Once again, too many fans turned up for the big day out and darted off.
