Does that mean we regard MK Dons as big rivals?
Or does it mean, more likely, that Villa fans will see it as easy to get to, a good day out due to the massive away allocation, and a new stadium to tick off?

We live 3 hours away. We've do quite a few games each season, we drive up and park every time. Never once had a problem. Poor excuse

IMO opinion super fan staus is in the mind of the few who have a go at the Cov City as a fan base. Pouring scorn on the idea of us reguarly having crowds of over 20k if we are given a bit of hope or a taste of sustained success on the pitch.
They then have a pop at those fans who have become disillusioned.
Mark Venus understands it and says this
“It is a big club, it plays in a fantastic stadium and it’s just one of these clubs that has fell on hard times, which we need to try and turn round.
“It’s got a big supporter base which has been disillusioned and frustrated so we’ve got to try and bring everyone together and see if we can move forward.
“The fans obviously get disillusioned with some of the stuff that goes on around the club but they’re proper supporters who care about their club passionately.
“When they feel that people are doing the right things and trying hard to do the right things, they back their club and they have with us.
“I’m sure that the support will grow as the season goes on because they’ll understand that we know what we’re doing.

I think your support is generally pretty good, but I just thought that was a standout poor following. Maybe just me, but I expected more. Your followings have been generally decent this year, and you'll accumalate some good numbers for a decent average come the end of the season IMO.
Superfan:
I don't think we even sold out Burton which is less than an hour away.
Despite how well we are doing there's still a lot disgruntled murmuring among Coventry fans that the goals are drying up and that the slide down the table is beginning, we're not as good away as we are at home, form is slowly dropping off etc.
I have to say we have are fair share of band wagoners more so than other clubs imo (check out Crewe and Gillingham attendances and then the home fixture immediately following that, not many if any clubs get that big of a disparity between attendances from one game to the next) if we'd have won our previous two fixtures 3-0 instead of drab 0-0 we'd have probably took double or filled it (dunno the away allocation at Swindon) due to the fickle nature of Coventry fans. We get on a good run and people get excited and it snowballs and we start taking big numbers, one or two poor/average results and its cries of same old city and the support just drops off, been the way since we dropped into this division"
