Just heard on CWR,Coventry United attracted 1000 fans at their game on Saturday ,That for them must be highly encouraging.

Imagine if they do well, support could be very good

 

[ccfcway]

thats one hell of an attendance.

It will only increase I would have thought

 

[Houchens Head]

[hill83]

Nice one. I bet the players were nervous.

Have just had a look on their webpage can't find anything relating to this ,maybe just a Tweet into CWR.

Just see how quickly the crowd is growing.


Be 100,000 by the end of the day!!

Says the man with the red Coventry kit avatar..

i bloody loved that kit, was the 1st one I owned and bought it on the morning of my 1st ever away match. Put the kit on, sat on the coach and headed up to Blackburn...


Lee Hurst was an absolute star that day !

 

[Evo1883]

i am going to be honest here ,its not for me ,its a much lower than expected standard of football , doesnt seem very well set up , spoke to one of the owners and he said he wants 3 promotions in 5 years , looking to use the acadamy pitch if ccfc dont come back basically ,also the pitches at alan higgs are not in a good state tbh

They probably mean 1000 registered on their website.

Unless of course the other 970 people were waiting til Craig left and came along in the second half.

Lee Hurst was a fantastic player. But I didn't like that kit as everyone joked that it was basically pink from a distance. Given it's tightness, that wasn't a good look for Sumo!

 

[SkyBlueRuffian]

It'd be 1002 if they changed the kit colour.

 

[Houchens Head]

It would be 1003 if they played at the Ricoh!

 

[torchomatic]

Yeah, he was good. Gould buggered his career up with that ridiclous stint at an army assault training course in Hampshire.

Something like Coventry Highfield, or Coventry Godiva would have been much better Otis, the United is just bland and I think they have missed out on more support calling themselves that.
Tap into some of the citys history and they would have got a bigger support in my opinion

[Greggs]

If it was AFC Coventry playing in Sky Blue i would have been up there.
Coventry United playing in red....fuck off.
I know the bloke behind this aswell, he is an attention seeking Man United fan.

 

[Leamington Pete]

Leamington had 1002 at their friendly on Friday night. Think this was mentioned on CWR. Maybe someone got the wrong end of the stick.

If that's me apologies all.!!

Question for CCFCWAY,that being your first game ,what was the score ,the the one where we thumped them 5-0 or 5-1 .

The one i'm thinking I believe David Batty was sything people down for fun and we had a Scottish Loanee from Celtic I think .It was evident he wasn't really fitting in to our plans ,IIRC he'd had personal Probs north of the border .He came on in the second half and Didhim, Batty missed that summers International tournament ,always loved the guy for that but just can't remember his name ,or was it against Leeds??

It was 5-2.

 

[idris65]

I went and there were probably 50 people at the most. Nice pint of kronenbourg at half time though.

We played there at the start of last season and the pitch was quality

Their defence may look intimidating, but you can hit them hard at the back without much effort.

Are you on about a football team or a bunch of hookers, mate?!?! LOL!

Playing surface is always too slippy, far too many games played on there! It is like a sludgy sunday league pitch with pissed up middle aged men trying their best to dribble all over it....
