"im not going to go the City match today because its a bit cold"
are there really people like this?
That’s not really what he’s said - Think he means there’s people who claim to be city fans but would only bother to get themselves to a game for a Wembley trip or if they pulled Man Utd or Liverpool in the FA CupWhy do you call people who can only get to a few games a season, and choose the bigger games, 'so-called fans'?

Just bought mine and still think this.Looks like it'll be similar to Sunderland.
Yeah. Funnily enough, dragging young kids out to a freezing concrete bowl where they have to sit still for two hours while it's close to zero and raining before and after the game, it crosses your mind. Tw*t."im not going to go the City match today because its a bit cold"

Yeah, but it's sh*t for me listening to them whine like d*ckheads while I'm trying to watch the game. Gotta think selfishly.It’s character building for them….they’re getting nearly as mollycoddled as their idle teachers these days
Is it just a coincidence that we only get large crowds when the glamour clubs visit ?Why do you call people who can only get to a few games a season, and choose the bigger games, 'so-called fans'?
Well I am taking four, and I know who is doing the dragging.Yeah. Funnily enough, dragging young kids out to a freezing concrete bowl where they have to sit still for two hours while it's close to zero and raining before and after the game, it crosses your mind. Tw*t.

We would never get 24k season ticket holders, even in our first season in the premier League. Perhaps 21-22 tops. If we struggled it would drop the following season.24k people willing to go to every game

We aren't Leicester. We haven't got that kind of support that can sustain over an indifferent period.
I'm not saying we can't fill the stadium in the premier League but no way can we get the kind of levels of season ticket sales that guarantees 30k plus at home week in week out.

Grown men doing a Tiger….. I really don’t want to see that today.Do they still sing this?
We’re gonna win the cups46 massive games in a season. Not a believer in that “free hit” loser mentality bollocks.
11 cup finals starting now.
That probably equates to about 25k fans that have forgotten their log in details 10x and created a new account.But there are indeed thousands of City fans who can only make so many games for a variety of reasons……they still root for the side every game. Not so long ago the club had a database of 250,000 +…..folk who had either been to a match or bought from the shop.
Get in thereJust on my way for the first time in a while, life getting in the way. There's a noticeable sense of excitement about the place these days. Very welcome change.
Hull were really the worst, most embarrassing type of away support today. Deathly silence for the entire first half. Score early second half and then they find their voices and reel off their pathetic songbook for 20 minutes until they concede - then it’s back to deathly silence.
Tinpot. Hope they enjoyed their big day out.
You may be right about our historic average being favourable over Leicester, but the fact is when Leicester dropped into league 1 briefly not so long ago their crowds held up extremely well, higher in fact than what we are getting now.We aren't Leicester?? Before our move to Northampton, our historical average attendance was higher.
Laughable that anyone thinks a city of 360,000 and a CV postcode of 850,000 wouldn't sell 24,000 season tickets.

Claiming that Coventry is everybody's "big day out" makes us sound like clowns (and is pretty inaccurate.... i'd say the only real draw we have as an away trip is the large allocation available).

In 2001/2 their average attendance in the championship was just over 19000. Since then they've never had less than 20,000 on average per season and regularly bettered it in the championship before selling out year after year in the Premier League .
It isnt necessarily the case that having a CV postcode of 850,000 should guarantee 24k season tickets . The reality is that outside of Coventry many CV postcodes are not necessarily swarming with Coventry fans. They should be but they're not.
