yeah that's the thing. If the money from all the beers etc was going to us they could make it cheaper and count on people spending like Wasps do, but we can't do that.
The 'spending money' idea is great but that all goes to Wasps so the net effect is we've lowered our revenues to get more people in the ground for someone else to profit!
Games like these are a hard sell, anyone who's not local is surely going to think twice about making trip on a Monday night when they can sit at home, or in the pub, and watch the game.

What? like sixfields when only 1,000 were going? Behave.
End of the day, it's all about support for the team. More fans the better atmosphere. Imagine if rumours are true and 6k there? Be horrible atmosphere and look a disgrace on TV. I'm dreading it

Yep, won't be good, but to be honest where the camera is situated it looks pathetic on TV when there are 20k+. It's easy to blame the club, but the fans need to take a long hard look at themselves if it is as low as 6k. I think it will be 7.5-8k on par with what we've been getting this season.

The fans need to take a long hard look at themselves? Are you joking?
Us fans have had to deal with so much shit, selling best players, moving to Northampton, court cases, lies and you blame the fans. That comment is ludicrous stu.
Sisu have drove the fans away. The fans have lost fight but most of all interest due to all the off the field shenigans. 17,000 average when sisu took over now it's down to 8,000.
No, I wasn't joking. Yes SISU drove the fans away, but regardless if we do get just 6k for a league game at the Ricoh, that is a disgrace for a city and catchment area of well over 800k residents IMO. Especially given then some fans still believe we're a big club.

can't agree more, last time sky were here we had 27'000 nearly all them saying how delighted they were the club were back in coventry, then at the following home game it was 10'000 so where had 17'000 delighted "true sky blue" fans gone?No, I wasn't joking.

thats a poor excuse for people not to turn up you support and encourage the team in the hope they will improveThe days of fans supporting CCFC regardless have long gone.
It's a good product first I'm afraid. Start giving fans hope of promotion and we know they will come back slowly.
Plenty of other things to do these days I'm afraid and Northampton broke the habit.

Agree. But it seems like Sisu are not bothered that we are at this level so do you still support knowing it's fruitless ?
Surely most fans would support the team whether it was champions league or conference wouldn't they?
But all fans expect to be in with a chance of promotion each year.
Since relegation from the PL we are only moving slowly one way.
If I supported a team based on success I'd support Man Utd, Liverpool etc.
Like I said, surely Coventry City fans would support them (the team) whatever league?
To who?We will be a laughing stock tomorrow.
What need to be in promotion run for people to support their team? I really dont understand it.Obviously not ?
Don't people also need to believe that we could have some success? Perhaps even a promotion ?
The many millions who will be chomping at the bit to tune into sky to watch a 3rd division game.To who?
To who?
I cant imagine people turning sky on and rolling about laughing, Id say nobody is actually that fussed.To anyone who watches I'm afraid.

We have a hard core of 5,000 that support regardless.
There is another 20,000 + who like to see something for free.
I'm still in the 5,000
Corrected that for you.
Regarding wasps he'd be one of the 20,000 other than he's one of a handful who actually pay to watch them.
Corrected that for you.

No or we would see sell out at every club in the land?
We are no different to any other supporters all this shit about City fan this and City fans that bollox.
Any way back on topic 7500 not bad for a Sky match on a Monday night, unfortunately I can't make it. So maybe only 7499.
I dont think the issue is supporting the team, i think the issue is dragging yourself down to the stadium to watch shitty football in a shitty league.
People support the team. People just dont go and watch. There is a difference. I hardly get down there to watch them...im maybe a few times a season, but i dont live local
Obviously the issue is supporting the team as the team I support are in a shitty league so I'll watch them in there.
If I wanted prem football I'd go watch villa or wba.
