I honestly don’t think it takes a snitch.

‘Club in good form and not a great distance away sells out’

Not rocket science to tighten things up.

Wouldn't it be standard for a club to check if people are ordering in the home end?

Reading between the lines, it sounds like they are used to it and generally let it slide. But they've decided to stamp it out with us. Maybe the numbers were getting to large.

I like him, but he's had a moment here, needs a word with himself.

5pm update on Thursday and there are currently 649 home seats left for this one, distributed by Stand - North 71, East 84, South Upper 104, South Lower 390 By comparison we were down to 210 seats left for our last home match vs Pompey at the equivalent time, but the rate of sales has been...

Not sure if that was posted after I'd had a gander. I definitely saw an Oxford fan post (where, who knows ) that a Cov mate had told him we had bought some in the home area. Anyway, who cares. except that it's a sh*t if some have been kicked out in advance as a result of a forum post.

Yeah I’m sure @procdoc didn’t mean any harm.

I assume, as someone else has said, numbers just got too big so Oxford took action. Unlikely to be down to that post. Plus plenty on here, including me, have discussed it too

Yes that’s right. Then Prodoc went in as a “Cov fan in peace “ giving the game away.

Hard one to recover from that. I hope he is taking great care with his statement following the backlash or it could be curtains.

It's a shame if its true that one of our posters went on their forum to give them the heads up on our fans buying tickets in their end. Not sure what was he was hoping to achieve!

Yeah such a shame…. nick should ban Boosh for it

There's a very simple automation in place, I would imagine.

Don’t give him any ideas! I’m well behaved now

To anyone with their tickets cancelled, don't worry, one end of their ground has a fence behind it so I'm sure you'll still get a decent view if you take some sort of stool.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Just a heads up for people in the home end. They are checking names against tickets and cross referencing them with purchase history at Coventry City. Just had tickets cancelled

Always lots of empty seats at Oxford and they wonder why they don't make a lot of money.

Genuine question:

How would we as Coventry fans feel about a whole group of Sunderland fans buying up tickets in the home end in our upcoming game against them?

Depending on results over the next couple of games, this could be an important match and could well end up being a very high attendance. Are we ok with the idea of opposition fans taking tickets away from home ones?

 

[Razzle Dazzle Dean Gordon]

Any tips on parking for this one? Seems there's a big, free car park at the ground but not much else nearby being advertised? Is it a bit of a nightmare or generally fine?

that is some grade a point missing

How so?

 

[skyblue_55]

Car parking at the ground, is B1 for away supporters, but the whole car park I believe, only holds 2000 ?
First come first served , but free !

 

[Para1140]

Why dont a few without tickets hire a couple of these for the day ?

 

[edgy]

Just asked and J's Sports Bar is open to both sets of fans. Though they stressed they are a family venue and want everyone to have a good time.

I've booked a table in Frankie & Benny's just incase we cant get in there. The outlets at the ground aren't good and not much else around apart from 2 hotels and a bowling alley.

For people who Cherry pick which games they watch

Because the point is basically it not okay to grass, all the rest is just noise.

Anyone done the bus from Oxford City centre to the ground, is it straightforward. I'm planning on doing this on Saturday after getting the train from Coventry

Not done it but I'd imagine a fair number of their support use it so it should be fine.
