I couldn't give a fuck, shit competition at a shit stadium

Roll on next Tuesday for championship football back where we belong at the CBS

Common sense has prevailed. Cue a load of people turning up with tickets they've bought though. At least they'll have already been refunded.

Hopefully.....

Haha….good shout . Talking of which WTF has happened to The Rainbow … really lost its buzz

Down hill for a while now which is a shame, I live slightly closer to The Jag club, that has really improved since covid with the outdoor space decking and live music

I get where you are coming from as in the grand scheme of our season this cup is small beer. But I am not sure the thousands of Coventry fans who were at Old Trafford the night we went there and won in this cup would agree it's worth nothing. Can be a decent money spinner and be exciting if we get a good tie.

I was one of them that night. But i just cant get excited, and cant remember the last time we got a decent draw in it, or even progressed

 

[Saddlebrains]

Hopefully.....

We will

No way they cant male that playable within the 10 days they've had from Friday

 

[Ashdown]

We won all 7 of our friendlies playing away at some smaller capacity places. You never know we might win this in front of 2000 die hards and go on and get Villa at the CBS next.

 

[mmttww]

who the fuck even are you?

Is this the football forum version of flirting?

 

[rexo87]

Now - please can we get it confirmed it's going to be on ifollow. Can't attend on Wednesday, but want to pay a tenner to watch (every little helps!)

I read the other day that carabao games are not on ifollow

Is that a recent rule change? Sure I watched the game against Gillingham a couple of years back

 

[rexo87]

Yeah ifollow is against competition rules

Yep I did as well. Believe it was a rule change at start of last season

That was in the covid BCD season when all games were on ifollow

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

Y'know what I'm more tempted to go now it's in Burton, and not just because it's a slightly shorter drive. I was debating going anyway but am 90% sure I will now. Feels like a weird sense of belligerence after this shit show and driving down to not have a game on Sunday

I did, too - Max's header ?!

Might be one of those games where people say

'remember that game at Burton - I was there'

...and have to play it at Nuneaton.

 

[Nick]

I'm quite looking forward to it, it will have an away game feel I think.

Same here, I'm actually far more interested in a half full Pirelli, than 6k in the CBS.

I was 50/50 about going before, now I'm more like 80/20 in favour of going. It could actually be pretty popping if a good few thousand go.

 

[SkyBlueMatt]

This is just down the road for me now, I'll be on my tod but I think I'll go since we missed out on Sunday.

 

[robbiekeane]

Rally the troops and fill the place

 

[Mcbean]

Potg I be would assume

 

[lordy_87]

Not going but i do like the Pirelli tbf. Tidy little stadium with nice standing terraces.

 

[LevelBest]

Has anyone got the contact details for Glide Parking so I can get a refund to my car park booking for Wednesday?

I don't want Villa, I'd prefer a big club.

 

[fatso]

Burton's biggest gate of the season!

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Not sure if anyone has done a guess the gate - I'm going 57 locals (curiosity) 2,100 City and 473 Bristol - grand total of 2,630

Should be an email link on receipt?

 

[skybluejane]

I heard somewhere yesterday they weren’t refunding car park money but they may have changed their mind since!

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

Suggested pub for anyone interested

 

[shmmeee]

Would be nice if they managed to get this on iFollow considering the circumstances. But realise it’s hardly the priority.

 

[Hobo]

First home League game cancelled. First home Cup game being played at Burton. Amazing how quickly people forget about players leaving or coming in? A week ago the transfer market was a matter of life or death

Looks like they have removed all mention of Rotherham refunds from the website?

I'm gonna pop down later. They better not play silly beggars
