Block 14 and 15, the two blocks which usually sell out first are hardly even half full.

Unless there's a huge pay on the gate number tomorrow, I think the crowd could be as low as 14k.

I thought we’d get 15,000 min even if we didn’t win at the weekend. Is Bristol City selling any better?

Reality is these two games are massive for us, so hope fans get up to them if they can. We have a very difficult run of games straight after the international break, so hoping we take maximum points over next 2.

It's 150 odd miles I think , so I'd expect around 6/700 from them really

Swansea's on loan right back is a real danger going forward, so hopefully Maatsen doesn't get exposed by him (conversely Maatsen might be able to expose the space behind him). Won't be disappointed with a point tomorrow, although them having a poor following might give us a bit of an advantage. Still fancy us more against Bristol City)

We took 182 there last time we were in the championship, a Tuesday night match from Swansea to Coventry is not the easiest of journeys after work, school etc.

Exactly. It's a three hour car journey (with basically no alternative travel option).

And despite the new-found love city fans have for our stadium, i'd imagine it still ranks fairly low on the list of must-do away days for champs teams.

That said, i'd imagine they'll get up to 500+

Blocks 14 and 15 have had the back 7 rows opened up for sale, so far this season they've not been sold. They've been full on matchday because people have sat in those seats, so it perhaps looks worse than it is. That said, can't see more than 15K tomorrow and Saturday won't be anywhere near the Derby gate.

The Ricoh will comfortably be the most visited ground in the Championship this season.

Oh really? I just thought they'd been sold out.

Tuesdays are better than Wednesdays for recovery time.

4.45pm Saturday to 7.45pm Tuesday is 75 hours then plenty until the following Saturday. 9.30pm Wednesday until 3pm Saturday only 65.5 hours. Even worse if an away game with a travel back late and losing the next day's preparation. Makes a big difference if there's a full midweek fixture list and one team has had an extra day.

Could also occasionally of course be a 12.30 Sat kick off too.
Don’t forget the clocks went back as well
