Sorry to butt in but this is how we (Crewe) often play away games, hit and run and it worked a treat, anyhow the last six meets between us we`ve won 6, drew 1, lost 1 sorry but you won`t win 4-0, 5-1 or 6-2 at our place.
New Wembley is a terrific stadium but the usual overpriced food and drink in the concourse, £5 a pint! £7.50 fish and chips in a box! anyhow be nice to see Crewe there again! ;):p
its easy to identify any away fans in certain areas esp the GR end, its small and only full for big games, most of them are familiar with others and strangers would stick out a mile, its not safe for anyone and you won`t get in, sorry!
NO WAY will you be allowed into the small GRESTY ROAD END stand, there would be a riot! its full of youth and the police and stewards won`t let anyone in there who`s an away fan!
You`ll be wasting money because as soon as its known you`re Coventry fans you`ll be evicted, the police have promised to crack down here on any of your fans getting into the home sections, safety concerns etc
You have to provide I.D.to get a ticket in the home end( for safety reasons) and if it does`nt correspond to a Crewe adress or local then you prob won`t get one
You must remember Crewe is a town of around 60,000 people compared to Coventry`s population of what, 300.000? its very difficult at times to get people to support us here apart from our hardcore of 4.000 or so, with Crewe being central too there`s loads of supporters who go to watch the big...
YES, i`m friendly, hopefully no trouble but when we played you at home early in the season one of your fans got arrested for abusing a ball boy who broke down in tears, did`nt go well here this but hopefully none of that next time.
some are not, they drove out our previous manager STEVE HOLLAND a few years back with such venom and hostilities, he`s assitant at Chelsea now anyhow! belive me, it can get hostile in the big stand!
I don`t do it but some will, any hint of hostilities and the stewards will move in quickly, should have been here for England v Poland under 18s match a while ago, Poles lighting flares etc and the riot police turned up, tooled up! amazing sight for Crewe!
