Really tough match this one. They are one of the form teams at the moment beat Sunderland away 5-1 and got a draw at Middlesborough. We will really have to be on top of our game to win this especially if our internationals come back knackered. Unsure how many players they had away on international duty, if they played and if they travelled long distances. Always factors that can contribute to post international games
Vic could walk home and still have gas in the tank

This is the most confidence that I have felt in a Sky Blues team since started watching the club.

2-0 win.

After Vik's performance for Sweden, I think he's going to come back a man possessed.

Head says draw, heart says win.


Wonder if they’ll start taking their foot off the gas once promotion and the title are confirmed
Like @SkyBlueSoul said, Burnley & Blackburn absolutely hate each other. No one will be taking that game for granted.

I think this season is the first (in a while) that visiting supporters aren't forced to go on coaches.

A lot of people putting Allen in their team, has robins confirmed he's back? I didn't think it'd been 6 weeks.

A few weeks back he said that he hoped Allen would be back after the international break, or just after.

So it’s not definite he’ll be back on Saturday.

(Unless there’s been a more recent update that I’ve missed).

Yes a tough game. We didn't play our best against Hull a few weeks back, when expectations were high, and I still remember that Bournemouth game last season off the back of the 3-1 win at Fulham. If they nullify Vik which I am sure they will be working on, and without O'Hare and Palmer I am worried how we can unlock them. Walker & Godden need chances created for them. Think we need Stoke to come at us so we can pick them off. If they dig in, it could be a long afternoon.

Like most games depends if we get ahead in the game and don’t end to chasing it

I think a win is likely

I heard that Allen has been in full training for a week, if true would mean he's a possible for Saturday

Few more gone today

Pay day Friday so I’d expect a decent walk up/late sales.
It does look like a big home crowd for this one especially as we always sell alot of tickets on the Friday before.
Only 24 seats left in the West Stand, the family zone has loads more sold than usual and the East stand is sold out up to block 23.
Corporate will also be busier than normal especially the upper tier as its Legends Day.

We will flog another 1k behind the goal Friday i would assume with payday. Add another 5 or 600 walk ups and it wont be that bad. Id say about 22k cov

Really, sales figures so far look about average. I still maintain the £33 price will put off a lot of people. I’d love to see 25000 but needs a sales uplift to achieve that.

I had assumed Stoke were allocated 4000 but seems only 2500.

£33 is steep.... also £28 for my Uni student lad is harsh.
