    FA Cup prize money

    Ah ok, I didn't think it was done that way, but seems like it is

    FA Cup prize money

    That's not how it works I don't think. You don't earn prize money for winning each round, you earn the money based on your exit round. If you exit at the 5th round, the prize money you earn is based on the 4th winners amount, and that is the total you get. It changes at this stage where you earn...

    FA Cup prize money

    Think it's guaranteed 950K in prize money in total if we lose semi. Plus share of gate receipts from 5 games so far (45%) which won't be huge for some of the early games but should be decent for yesterday. For the semis it is different, we get a 1/4 share of 58.5% total gate receipts for the 2...

    FA Cup Semi Final Draw

    Why is it a recipe for chaos? Worked in the 80s when it was a lot more volatile. Grounds that are big enough and it would be much more of an occasion. A number of semi finals at wembley recently haven't sold out. Only 69K last season for Sheff Utd and City. Would much rather have a rocking...

    FA Cup Semi Final Draw

    Baffled how many people I am seeing say they'd rather play man city or Liverpool over Leicester. Personally I'd rather get to the final. This clamour for us to play 'big' side is weird.

    Match Thread Wolverhampton Wanderers - Coventry City [FA] Match Thread - Saturday 16th Mar

    Take the toll road. It's why we headed over at 8am, can't be doing with those M6 shenanigans.

    Wolves away pubs

    Really? Always a big majority not wearing colours at away games.

    Watford tickets

    Got a spare adult ticket as mate cannot go. Face value. Will need to collect from Ash Green Friday (can't before then as away with work), or I can meet at Watford at a push. EDIT: ticket now gone

    Championship thread 23/24

    I'd forgotten about the international break until earlier today. Weird after all the recent congestion that we don't play our next home game until April.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Rotherham United FC Match Thread - Tuesday 5th Mar

    This. People trying to over analyse a game like that is weird. We were under no pressure to force anything. Lots of players were taking the easy option because there was no pressure not to.

    Championship thread 23/24

    It's all about momentum at this stage of the season. You have to hope we'll now emerge from our dip and kick on a bit. Ben Sheaf returns and stays fit and we don't lose any other keys players, then we'll definitely be in the mix That said, a bad result and it can derail everything. Saturday...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Rotherham United FC Match Thread - Tuesday 5th Mar

    Let's be honest, we cruised to that and were well worthy. Anyone trying to pick fault is trying too hard. Second half it settled into that usual pattern you often see when teams race to a big 1st half lead. We were a bit too passive but we didn't need to get out of second gear. Goal difference...

    unrest behind the scenes

    Win the next two and it's all sweetness and light again, people will be saying 'it's on' and will fawn over City Unseen videos with mario cart content saying what a tight group we have. Not saying we win the next two, or that if we do we can make play-offs (don't think we will), but things can...

    Just a thought

    I agree people have got carried away with expectations this season, but don't recall what you describe in the 1st season after promotion. There was a lot of realism that season (we had max up front for most of it), people were very aware of the squad we had. May have been the odd performance...

    Who is good enough next season?

    I'm what way has Kitching been a liability? The sending offs? That can happen. One or two iffy moments, but he was a regular starter during our best spell this season. His absence in recent games is showing.

    Who is good enough next season?

    Much of it has been spent and the fee was overstated according to SU fans, there was a good chunk that was dependent on them staying in the PL. We also lose half a million a month. I'd say there isn't much money left.

    6000 empty seats ? Really ?

    Does seem a touch out. As stated, to fill all the seats you would have to have fitted in the entire Maidstone following again, plus another 1000 on top of that. Not sure where tbh, not that it really matters.

    6000 empty seats ? Really ?

    But they would still be counted if they bought a ticket, and by kick off you couldn't buy a ticket anywhere other than the family section.

    Maidstone Tickets

    Half and half scarves everywhere in dhillons. Even a few city fans wearing them 🙄
