ccfcmustang · Aug 21, 2014

maybe im just overeacting and beleiving the Ricoh is going to be our saviour, but i can see us getting promotion now. PUSB, i dont give a shit what the NOPM people have got to say anymore. Ill be the one enjoying wembley in May watching Simeon Jackson tear up Barnsleys defence for a play off final win. NOPM wankers- your not invited

houchen87 · Aug 21, 2014

Make the Gillingham game £10 entry - sold out Ricoh.

Ridiculous comment, and totally unneccesary on such a happy day for all Coventry City fans

I have my opinions on them Sixfield fans and they are not positive but today is a happy day as we are back where we belong...

Thankyou to the KCIC, the mass protestors in Coventry, the Trust, the Hilliers and most importantly the Coventry Telegraphs for there campaign to Bring City Home.... You are a credit to your club and without you our voices would not have been heard.

32,600ish. I reckon at least 20k. I would like it to be more!

Nick · Aug 21, 2014

Who is the Garry Woollaston fella on CET? There are some on there who actually dont want us back by the looks of it

friendly_canary · Aug 21, 2014

Absolutely delighted for each and every Coventry City fan.

I might be in Coventry on the 6th of September so I'll be doing my best to get a ticket! Got a lot of good memories of Simeon Jackson as well!

Get a sniff of a bit of success and I bet they'll be back

The Reverend Skyblue · Aug 21, 2014

I'm a very happy and emotional 51 year old with tears in his eyes,thank The Lord we are back home.

On the downside a tenth of Diss Towns home attendance will be missing from now on in,though I will try and go midweek

covcity4life · Aug 21, 2014

i would imagine 20k minimum

id stay at home if it was on sky though.....:laugh:

Said it before, and I'll say it again, make it free. It's the least all sides can do to say sorry to the fans.

Start the campaign now KCIC, Trust, GCBTTR, CET:

Would be a smart move for the club to do some kind of promotion for the first home game, or first couple of home games, as recompense for putting the fans through a year of total misery.

Fiver for adults, quid for kids it'd be close to a sell out.

Can't go myself, in Switzerland with England

Agree. But let's just enjoy the moment for now.

SkyBlueSid · Aug 21, 2014

Excellent news if we are back at the Ricoh in September. This madness had gone on long enough. The crowd for the first game should be about 18000 I reckon. Unfortunately we are away that day so it won't include us.

As far as having a season ticket again, I don't think that will happen. Life has moved on and we do other things. We will still attend some games at the Ricoh but the days of being there every single game, year in, year out, are now gone. At least it means I can see my team again though, and I can take some satisfaction that I was one of the 85% of City fans whose boycott of Northampton made the club see sense.

Oh I'm enjoying it. I'd pay £50 (IF I COULD BE THERE )

Suffolkskyblue · Aug 21, 2014

Need a lift on the 6th Rev? Great news.

Sky Blue Dal · Aug 21, 2014

Is it possible to buy season tickets for Saturday matches only. Just wondering as due to work commitments I am only in Coventry on weekends. Midweek games are difficult.

Jack Griffin · Aug 21, 2014

CT say it is a 3 year deal. So this is only a temporary solution.

http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/live-coventry-city-fc-return-7648537

Coventry City are to return home to the Ricoh Arena following secret talks between lawyers acting for club owners Sisu and Ricoh Arena operators ACL.

It is believed the Sky Blues could be playing home matches in the city as soon as next month.

Steven Pressley's side have been playing their home games at Northampton Town's Sixfields for more than a year - and a compensation payment will be due to the Cobblers after the two clubs agreed a three-year ground share deal.

We'll be bringing you live updates and reaction to the news below.

Mary_Mungo_Midge · Aug 21, 2014

Absolutely wonderful news. Anyone who stays away now is a mystery to me.

Whatever you think of SISU, they are currently bankrolling the club. My main gripe has been the way they went about securing non-footballing assets but using our football club to do so. That's failed. Let's draw a line.

Now, back the club, and play your part in getting us out of this damn division; and back to where we belong

jimmyhillsfanclub · Aug 21, 2014

Just emptied all 3 of my betting accounts on City gaining promotion this season.....

COME ON!!!!!
