As an average there’s not a chance
Not unreasonable to think that attendances would have been pushing that given this season’s performances.
Welcome!!I’m going for my 1st game at St Andrews, been to quite a few away, bring on the abuse ....
Only the Mowbray season then and that for only half a season.we had gates over 16k in that part season. I’m pretty sure with a sustained promotion push gates would be well over 12k. We averaged that last season and were never once in the play off places.Maybe for 1 or 2 games but not as an average - I think it’d be around 12,000 like it has been for every other season we’ve done well in L1

Why not more ST holders? No away support? Our potential fan base for a successful team is way above 16k.We would have 7,000 ST holders so that would take 9,000 paying every game

Win our game in hand we will be top,will we see crowds grow then at that point if we went top ? Surely top of the league would gather higher attendance over a 4th round cup tie ?
I don’t get it ?
Our first season in this divisiontailed off when Robins left. Again, I don’t think we were ever in the PO places and there was certainly no sustained promotion push. When was there another League One season with promotion on the cards?We had 2

Doesn’t add that much when the extra is divided by 26 games.Il talking the Mowbray season. The average also under Robins is distorted by the community game
26 games?Doesn’t add that much when the extra is divided by 26 games.
It’s what we would be getting. If you can’t see that you have no clue about the club. Wouldn’t be 16k every week but on average all it takes is a couple of big gates to push it up.Yes that’s what he thinks we’d be getting
I just can’t see how a 16,000 average would be possible with 7,000 ST holders

They would be WELL over 12k. Keep moving forward, keep Robins, keep the mouths of Fisher & co shut and watch this club fly.Only the Mowbray season then and that for only half a season.we had gates over 16k in that part season.

It hasn’t been 12k every season we’ve done well? You know this club has existed for more than 20 years right? We get 10k at our lowest ever ebb as a football club, give us some success and watch that bandwagon roll.Maybe for 1 or 2 games but not as an average - I think it’d be around 12,000 like it has been for every other season we’ve done well in L1
23 games, sorry26 games?
Everything is distorted by the fact we are coming out of the bleakest few years in our entire history and yet still we got 10k. So to say that there are only 2,000 more fans out there that would come onboard with some success is a stupid.Il talking the Mowbray season.

And you’re still wrong. Last time we were in league one before the late 2010s we averaged almost 30k. We went from 9k to 30k in about 3 years thanks to success, good owners and optimism.
Nothing has changed- get those things right and we’ll be having the usual “where did all these fair weather fans come from?” debates. Your argument is wrong.
Hoisted by his own petard, the SBT press release should use this as a contemporary example of how out of touch the trust leadership isWell Neil White as well as he keeps saying 10,000 are boycotting St Andrews
Is it really so hard to agree with this? We get 5,500 or so at St Andrews and it’s not unreasonable to assume we’d get 15k or so in Cov playing how we are and where we are in the league?Hoisted by his own petard, the SBT press release should use this as a contemporary example of how out of touch the trust leadership is
I find that very hard to believe I think double is sensibleIs it really so hard to agree with this? We get 5,500 or so at St Andrews and it’s not unreasonable to assume we’d get 15k or so in Cov playing how we are and where we are in the league?

So you think we’d be getting league two crowds while playing great football pushing for promotion to the championship :wacky:I find that very hard to believe I think double is sensible
Right you areIf we played Birmingham in the cup at the Ricoh we wouldn’t get anywhere near another 10,000 and total attendance would be around 14,000
12000 home fans plus away fans yep that’s what I think.So you think we’d be getting league two crowds while playing great football pushing for promotion to the championship :wacky:
In 2005/2006 we had 8,000 season ticket holders and averaged 21,000. As a club we don’t ‘do’ season tickets, too many letdowns, we are historically a big walk up club. Makes sense, if you’re not a dyed in the wool, more of a fair weather (not meant disrespectfully) Coventry City supporter, who would you spend all that cash to be inevitably disappointed? The bulk of our fans now wait & see, pick games, see how things are going.
