    South Stand home end?

    You’ve really skewed the digits to suit your own narrative there, completely disregarding the corners (which would still be impacted - vomitory or not) and that the loss in capacity would be a minimum of 5 rows plus quadrants; you have also suggested in previous posts that the standing to...

    South Stand home end?

    If you have cast iron numbers, I’d be happy to look at it. For now, the diagram above is not far off. The ‘C’ data for the CBS is definitely nowhere near what you may think and the potential loss of seats is far greater than 500.

    South Stand home end?

    Current planning for stadia in the U.K. determines that a maximum seating pitch is 34 degrees. The CBS represents a rake of between 30 and 34 degrees a fair representation of which is shown in the image below, including the recognised distance to the nearest touchline. It’s fair to say that to...

    South Stand home end?

    It would have to change if you are proposing a standing area in front of and next to seated sections. Think about it. You would lose at least 5 rows of seating behind the standing section and at least a block of seating into each corner before those seated individuals were not impacted by having...

    South Stand home end?

    Great idea. However, the section you have highlighted for safe standing would have to have the risers lowered and reprofiled to prevent sightline issues in the seated section behind and the corners. A balustrade would have to be added to the front of the seated section to prevent spectators from...

    Hull crowd

    The information you are quoting is 12 years out of date. The current population of Coventry alone is nearly the same as total that listed for the combined total of Coventry and Bedworth in 2011. It also excludes areas such as Binley Woods, Balsall Common and Kenilworth which are arguably nearly...

    Hull crowd

    Coventry may be a football city, but there is a huge dilution of potential fanbase when you consider that up until fairly recently, there were 2 professional Rugby Union teams, a Rugby League team, an Ice Hockey team, Speedway etc. We don’t only have to contend with a hugely diverse local...

    Home v Sunderland 12.30, Sky, £33 a ticket

    Anyone wishing for safe standing behind goals should consider that it can’t be properly achieved without including the corner sections. This is due to potentially impaired site lines in bowl shaped stadia; if we had four individual stands, the outcome would be different, but if you have standing...

    Sheaf

    Might not be an essential sale, but if we are looking to bring other options in, could be a balance sheet move. It depends who we bring in as to whether selling Sheaf would be seen as a good move.

    Transfer Shouts

    Not sure what sort of a player we be would getting if they are potentially facing a pay cut to come here. If Cantwell as much as talks to Rangers, it would be a clear indication that it is entirely about money.

    Just because they are singing anti-villa songs on a train, doesn’t make them their no.1 rival.
