My experience is completely different. Pretty much everyone who goes either lives in Coventry or is from the city originally. We just don't have much of a regional pull. You mention Ipswich, in their last few seasons in the Championship they were only averaging 16K or so, so a lot less than...

It amazes me that people don't seem to get that, that they think it is the same 18K every week. We have a pool of supporters, many of whom pick and choose, but every now and again they pick and choose the same game because it is a big occasion.

I get that, and I did say numbers frustrate, I just don't think they're out by as much as people suggest, and I was really posting in response to comparisons with Leeds and Newcastle which I think are silly.

Where are the 40k Millwall fans who were at Wembley a few years ago? How could Oxford take 28K to Wembley and get 5000 the next week? Cardiff get lower gates than us but would take 40K to Wembley in a heartbeat. I'm not sure what your point is.

Coventry is very much a football city and has amongst the most dedicated and passionate supporters in this league. We witness that week in week out. Simply wouldn't swap our support for that of any other club tbh. The numbers frustrate at times, but then we've sold a record number of STs this...

I think scarves out the window is now considered to signal day-tripper and overall tinpottery. A bit like balloons and jester hats. Sort of thing you'd associate with Leicester City.

The issue is, they fucked up with the Cat A pricing. Gate receipts for Cat A games, the games that should see the biggest gates despite the higher price (did last season), are well down on last season I understand, I mean significantly down. You've seen a big fall in Cat A attendances, some of...

The deal doesn't make a huge amount of sense. It only really appeals to those who are willing and able to commit to 5 consecutive home games, and people this commited typically have a ST or half ST already. For decent uptake it should have been £100. They will still sell a handful I imagine.

It would help if they provided a seat plan when buying tickets. Many clubs using ticketmaster offer this to their supporters for away games. At the moment it is a lottery. Rotherham and yesterday I bought in the first 20 mins of the 1st window and ended up a the front. Would never choose to sit...

This will easily be the biggest home turn out of the season so far. Cardiff must have been closed to 20K home fans?

I think he said a week to 10 days at the Thursday press conference

We get it, you don't care. Why do you care so much that some people care? Getting your knickers in a knot because there is a thread about Sunderland, on the day we play Sunderland 😂.

Looks decent over there. Thinking of maybe moving from block 16 next season.

Their support really is dogshit. It gets worse every time we play them. They sit on their hands for 90 mins, zero backing for their team. What is the matter with them?

Only on matchdays 😬

Oh, they're shite. But at least Dhillons opened at 9am. Couple of beers in and my outlook is improving.

Nothing is going to happen at 10.30am and after the game it'll be a sea of hi-vis vests. Most that will happen will be a bit of fence rattling.

It'll be fine, will pass off without incident like the last few times.

Some clown has responded to that with a picture of Bradley Lowery. Just no need for that.

I was in WT7 at you could practically reach over and touch the away fans and the exits were right next to each other, so fans would immediately mix outside. Was never an issue aside from that one Pompey game. It's not an issue anywhere else either, where the most vocal home supporters are often...
