    Manchester United fans in WT 92/93

    In following season's they introduced a policy where to buy a ticket for united game you had to buy a ticket for another designated game, it did pretty much stop it . United did that a few places back then, I recall one game at palace that was similar

    How good were the crowd?

    It was good. Seen several Preston fans saying it was the noisiest set of home supporters they've seen all season and yet we're still beating ourselves up. Block 3 looked lively yesterday too.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Preston North End FC Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Feb

    That was a terrific performance, any suggestion to the contrary is nuts. The only negative that we didn't put it to bed earlier.

    Yeah, I'm sure this is it, a lot of people struggling right now. We've had a lot of home games recently too.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Preston North End FC Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Feb

    Probably the most disappointed I've been for an attendance for a couple of seasons. Given it's 3pm on a Saturday, not a cat A fixture, we're nearly into March and just outside playoffs, it's looking like it'll be below average. Surprised at that.

    I'm So Happy

    I'd argue they think about us more than we do them, certainly from my interactions.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Queens Park Rangers Match Thread - Tuesday 11th Feb

    No need for a forensic analysis of that. Two teams that were evenly matched in most areas of the pitch. We came out on the right side of it though, so all is well and I sleep well tonight.

    Cheer up

    Understand the sentiment and broadly agree, but I don't buy this idea Leeds was a foregone conclusion and an impossible task. Very good side, but they had only won 5 of 14 away games before they played us. Far too much respect given to them on and off the pitch. We were poor on Wednesday.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Ipswich Town [FA] Match Thread - Saturday 8th Feb

    We'd lost that at 2pm when the teams were announced. Had our moments, but they didn't need to get out of 3rd gear really, even if it flattered them. Take it on the chin and move on.

    No I mean heading up with a view to buying from t/o. Just had a mate text saying he might head up a get a ticket, but would be a wasted journey. You snooze you lose I suppose, just surprised there has been no announcement. Sure there will be soon though. Edit, they have just released some in...

    Game seems to have sold out. Surprised no announcement from the club so far, will be people heading up who are not aware.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Ipswich Town [FA] Match Thread - Saturday 8th Feb

    We're currently a mid table 2nd division side getting our highest average gates for 50 years and are about to sell out for a pretty meh cup tie. Anyone would think thousands would all come flocking to games in the PL. Our average gate would go up by about 3k and 1K of that would be increased...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO

    Quite a weird flat feeling around tonight. Lots of ST holders seem to be giving it a swerve. Official gate might be ok, but a lot of spare seats tonight I think. Hopefully the backing is still decent.

    Leeds tickets

    Won't be much above average for Leeds. Midweek and 3 days before a cup tie where club are expecting around 29K. A lot of the casuals you are looking to for a game like this are already locked in for Saturday. Know a load of casuals going to Ipswich, none of whom are going the Leeds game.

    Atmosphere

    Atmosphere is good. Still can't think of a ground apart from Elland Road where it is as consistently noisy. Boro can be ok, Derby too (and I'm always pretty impressed with Swansea at home), but I don't know why we're always so hard on ourselves. Most grounds in this league you can hear a pin...

    May have been mentioned already, but I make that the first midweek away league win in 3 years? Could be wrong ..
