I’m chilled out but go or don’t everyone has done it to death. Plus for £4.50 a week the chat advert at the top of the home page might be more to your liking if following your team is taking its toll. ;)
If it’s any good let me know lol!

It’s Holiday Homes for me atm

Tbh the only thing better is the pitch at St Andrews... We do need to hurry up and get back to the ricoh ASAP as its in Coventry. The longer we stay at st Andrews the more money we'll lose and the attendances will only go downwards or stay the same

If people go to St Andrews then respect to them and if they choose not to then they also have to be respected... we're all city fans at the end of the day

Hardly rambling. It was all in reply to someone having a meltdown and making up posts that don’t exist. Chill out.

Can fully understand anyone that doesn't want to go to St Andrew's, so that's fair enough. Not really sure coming on here and trying to kick the hornet's nest is particularly anything that gives you a moral high ground though, to be honest.

I think I agree. But I honestly wasn’t trying to take any moral high ground out of the SA thing. Can see why it might have been construed that way.

Yep, if we're still fighting towards the top of the league they'll creep up. We've had none of the teams with traditional big away followings and no community day.
Can’t see it myself. The home attendees will I’d say remain stable but the increase on the gate will be swelled by the big away followings taken to St Andrews (ie 5,000 Sunderland fans travelling).

So.. the average will increase? Thanks for backing me up.

the average won’t increase as in all probability there will be a decline in home fans as the season goes on

Can anybody realistically see the attendances getting much higher than what we're averaging atm?

Yep the average gate will-people attending in the home end will remain the same.

This’ll piss off certain members of this forum but I’m pleased as punch that even despite some positive results the tide is beginning to turn, and yes, this whole ‘camaraderie’ was utter nonsense. The number of people getting fed up will only grow. :emoji_thumbsup:

Prick.

I'm still really enjoying it to be honest, the atmosphere was quiet on sunday, but not surprising given it was a midday kick-off. I think if you just go to the game and leave straight after it would be a bind but if you make a day of it, it's fine. It's not going to change until the commission make a decision, so until that time I'm going to carry on making the best of it, if we'd scored on Sunday the atmosphere would have picked up.

Me and my lad are still enjoying it too. Does it mean I don't want us to move back to Coventry? Nope. Does it mean I "don't love Coventry"? Nope. It means, I am enjoying watching my team play some bloody good football. Personally, I think if we can maintain form after Christmas and be near the top of the table then the crowds will increase.

First visit to St Andrews on Wednesday for me!

Where should I park and where is a good place to grab food/beer?

The crowds won't increase much more.

The only one will be Sunderland because fans will turn up in fear that 6000 of them with outnumber us.

There's no way we'll even come close to Ricoh crowds. Even if we had the play offs or a community day, it won't hit more than a half full stadium..

Increase to what though?

I've been impressed by the numbers considering, but I really don't think we'll hit 10k home fans for a league game.

I have enjoyed St Andrews on the whole, but that novelty is dying off. Wednesday will be interesting.

Same as although I don’t think we will see much of an increase, 6-7k max apart from games like Sunderland where they will bring full allocation

Loads of street parking and food stalls outside the ground

Got my car keyed during the Wimbledon game, so I’d recommend parking somewhere more secure than a nearby street. Expensive night that !

I’ll never understand why anyone would damage someone else’s property like that.

perhaps they think the owners a tosser?!

In all seriousness you're right, shitty behaviour. There is secure parking in the church opposite the found, think it's a fiver, worth a little bit of extra expense to know your car is safe. Don't know how quickly it gets full.

Anyone want 2 x season tickets for Wednesday? Getting a bit boring watching all this pretty football with no end product. It's like whacking your dick against a wall, fun for a few minutes - but then extremely painful.

I think if we’re in the promotion hunt then the home attendance will creep up.

even at Northampton when we had a game at “home” to Wolves near the end of the season, with nothing riding on it, there was a large increase in the home end as well as the away end.

If we are fighting for top two after xmas I could see crowds getting closer to 10,000....
