Thinking about it, we've had some decent games with Birmingham the past few years. Always remember when we do them 1-0 at their place, Clinton Morrison or Adebola scored.
Even a 0-0 when the Ricoh had just opened, gate was 27,000 but genuinely couldn't see an empty seat.
If this happens we could do it with a charity collection for Shelter
That is a really excellent shout!! If we win start a new thread and we need to put some excellent plans in place minimum banner saying thanks for stepping in and at most exchanges of a memento from our club to theirs. Some form of reciprocal acknowledgment that the Midlands football family are united for football not against one another. Two tone stuff or anti racism or whatever reallyI think if we make this it would be a nice touch to have some kind of a "Thank you" banner or message that could be displayed.
Not only would this help to nullify any ill feelings that could potentially arise from the seating situations, but because I for one am genuinely thankful we are able to play there rather than be homeless and kicked out of the league. Further, I have only ever been treated nicely by stewards and bar staff who seem genuinely sympathetic to our plight, as well as the surrounding pubs and bars. Touch of class too.
Happy to chip in if anyone local can arrange this and agrees (the trust?).
We all know that with people getting over excited about playing Birmingham we will lose the replay.
Maybe it’s just where I sit at St Andrews but I find the attitude of a lot of people is far more negative than anything I experienced at the Ricoh. This is despite doing so well this season.This has the potential to be a unique (in a positive way) atmosphere. I’ve enjoyed the atmosphere at St Andrews, it’s nowhere near as negative as the Ricoh. Probably because the fans who attend want to get behind the team, regardless of politics. Therefore I think the atmosphere between the two would be light hearted.
My concern is the day trippers who can’t handle their beer and are staunchly anti-SISU without really knowing why. And/or have the whole ‘we’re Coventry, we’ll do what we want’ attitude.
The whole moral stance on not going really does make zero sense to me.
Be quite a big banner/small writing to get all that on, Pete!That is a really excellent shout!!

Just needs to say thanksBe quite a big banner/small writing to get all that on, Pete!
You are the anti-Hill. If you two ever touch I think you’ll both disappear.
Great idea. If we get through something like that would be a great touch.I think if we make this it would be a nice touch to have some kind of a "Thank you" banner or message that could be displayed.
Why would the proliferation of facial hair be a factor in the potential outcome?If this happens it should be a respectful festival atmosphere. I would hope ccfc fans remember the favor that bcfc have done us. It could be a celebration of Midlands football.
Then again it could all get ruined by some beered up twats.
Anyone else seen the story that they sold the ground to the owner and they're now renting it back at £1.25m a season? Might affect our situation (or at least cost) if we should need to stay for longer.

I really hope it happens mate. Would be great for both clubs.Regardless of who’s sat where etc.. you’ll be welcomed in all our pubs. There are no real problems at Blues home games these days. Same as any other ground, drink and have the crack and there’s no problem. Most home games we’ve got away fans in our pubs.
Jesus christ.I think if we make this it would be a nice touch to have some kind of a "Thank you" banner or message that could be displayed.

Did your mummy never teach you to say please and thank you?Jesus christ.
This is a wind up right?
Why?Jesus christ.

If this happens and the media aware then it will be a nailed on TV match ( if we get through)
the football world needs to see good stories out of. Shite ones and this would come across as a big deal in a positive way
It could be the situation that if Blues are sold and the previous owner keeps hold of the stadium that they could be forced out. Could have a situation where Birmingham will be staging there games at the Ricoh while we play at St Andrews. All hyperthetical of coarse!Anyone else seen the story that they sold the ground to the owner and they're now renting it back at £1.25m a season?

Think he means the whole Midland Club unity thing...defo worth coverage!I very much doubt a banner would sway a TV company to show a game.
