This may shock you, but usernames on the Internet don't legally have to be representative of the posters geographical location.
Brighton doesn't live in Brighton, Earlsdon sky blue doesn't live in Earlsdon, Ealing sky blue doesn't live in Ealing!

And skyblueinDorset no longer lives in Dorset. I've moved to Baku in Azerbaijan. I would like to change my user name to reflect the change but I don't know how to do it and keep my posting history.

Baku looks interesting. Is it worth a visit ?
I live in Torquay by the way

 

[Evo1883]

Anybody heard how many Bristol have sold ?

I think it is a 'do not lose' game. Need to attack them. They are a bit better than Cardiff imo. Last 6 home games we have won 4 and drawn 2, so reasonable form. Hopefully Palmer will be up for this.

I think they will come out more than Cardiff and that is the main difference here , we might be able to play our game

No. I retired years ago. A better quality of life.

Yes, very much so.

Does anyone know if I'm right in assuming that the cash turnstiles are cash only and can't pay by card at them?

If so us the ticket office at the ground open up to and beyond ko?

Had a nightmare with the trains and will be turning up at about ko time without any cash on me... Natural selection I suppose

 

[kg82]

Yes, very much so.

Looks lovely whenever I watch the F1.

In bed with raging hangover… I’m struggling to muster any enthusiasm to go. I’ve watched clips from our successes over the years to get in the mood and it’s not worked!! M42 is closed aswell so that’s adding 10 mins to my journey. The smell and lure of bacon is my only hope now!!

Get some cash from the station cash machines,
we still have them up these parts.

Thanks mate

think you could be right going what's off the website. sounds about right that we have a cashless stadium that you can only get into if you pay cash

Sky Blues fans will be able to pay on the day at the Arena at Cash Turnstiles, or from the Ticket Office.

Tickets will be available to buy from the Ticket Office at the Coventry Building Society Arena, which opens at 10am and is open until kick-off. This is cashless, with card and contactless payment available.

Sky Blues fans can buy at Cash Turnstiles 30–35 from 1:30pm on Sunday. There is no matchday price increase. Please be mindful that if you arrive at cash turnstiles in the final 15 minutes before kick-off, there is likely to be queues.

is there a cash point in the lobby or casino, must be one on site somewhere

 

[edgy]

Looks like a very healthy home crowd again. Only really North Stand & NE corner left, barring a few singles dotted around.

Yeah makes absolutely no sense...

Sounds like there's a cash point at the station which would sort my problems but casino is a good shout too!

Another change of pre match routine today - let’s hope it brings more luck than Thursday.

Think it’ll be the same side, with possibly Dabo swapping out, but I doubt it.

Seemed to be the same old comment, but surely Taveres needs game time at this point - we are so short or options and Waghorn was poor. Two up from with Palmer at 10 has to worth a go for 30 mins.

We really need a victory, more for team and fan morale and momentum than actual impact on league position.

 

[Deleted member 9744]

Teams tending to target Vic , even doubling up on him. Will that create space, can we not changes things around, two up front? Being positive but probably dumb.

That's what we need for sure, but we do we have a striker of adequate quality who is fit? If Godden or Walker were fit I think they would start.

 

[Nick]

Vic was double and often triple teamed against Cardiff. The result was Hamer, Palmer, Sheaf & Allen all had shots. The goals will eventually come one way or another.

All awful shots

You can go to a cash point and get some cash

Uber would be £50 there and back. Don't drive.

Allen should have hit the target but it was so close and palmer hit his chance well but straight at allsopp

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Uber would be £50 there and back. Don't drive.

Where are you bsb? Lift?

Why would you Gods own country

Wife is quite ill as I said so won’t be going anyway but thanks for offering

Just realised they have Matty James and he’s actually fit too.

Really liked him when he was here - always underrated as he wasn’t a showy player, but he’s a good ball player and keeps the ball moving.

However, now he’s not; he’s old, pedestrian and slows the ball down.

And in all seriousness; he’s no Ben Sheaf.

Sheaf is on the bench
