    Yep, except for block 14 which has been on sale.

    £5 tickets for Accrington - Community Day

    Game essentially sold out now. Only about 150 tickets left to buy online, so unless they open up more in the south stand (I think only half of it open at the minute), I can see 27000 being about the limit, similar to the Gillingham gate.

    Motor Vehicle for Robins

    It was a huge defeat really. We'd all convinced ourselves we had a shot at an automatic spot, but it's a long way off now it seems (although it may not seem it, but history tells us we have to average more than 2 points a game from hereon in). Ah well, who knows, it's certainly not impossible...

    Motor Vehicle for Robins

    Like I said before, I don't think it's apathy, it's more a case of trying to look at the positives and not overreacting. But yes, automatic promotion has all but gone. 85 points needed (based on last few seasons) and we're not getting 35 points from 16 games (it's very unlikely). We can make the...

    Motor Vehicle for Robins

    Sadly, I think we'll fall short this year. Generally speaking, no team that loses more than 13 games goes up automatically. We've lost 10 already, and we're just too inconsistent to think we won't lose at least another 3 games between now and the end of the season. Play-offs is very possible...

    Motor Vehicle for Robins

    That may well be true, but to suggest we sack Robin's now would be nuts imo. What would that do to the team spirit everyone was euligising about a few days ago? Yesterday was very disappointing, and 2 points out of 15 against the bottom 3 may well cost us, but to panic now and change the manager...

    Motor Vehicle for Robins

    It's not apathy. I trudged away from the game yesterday as pissed off and angry as I've been for a while. But, we're 4 points off an automatic spot, so take a breath. What do you think should happen then, we change manager 2/3 through a season when were in touch with the promotion chasers, or...

    Now I'm convinced you're winding me up.

    Motor Vehicle for Robins

    No answer to what, why we are 8th? It doesn't need answering because the answer is obvious. It's fine to be frustrated that we are dropping points against lowly opposition, and you look above us and you see plenty of sides we have beaten, including the top 3, so it is very frustrating. But...

    £5 tickets for Accrington - Community Day

    No, we only have 4.5k season ticket holders and have shifted quite a few since the 22k figure was announced. If you look online, far more tickets have been sold in East Stand than is usually the case a week from a game.

    Mansfield away - limited allocation?

    Has to be initial allocation, which is odd as they will sell in a day (much like FGR did). Notts County higher profile for them from a policing pov, so can't be that...

    £5 tickets for Accrington - Community Day

    Depends how you define 'actual' supporters. My wife is a teacher at a primary school in Cov and says demand has been massive, and it's coming from parents she knows to be city fans. Says she has spoken to a few and they are mostly people who have lost interest or who only go up now and again...

    £5 tickets for Accrington - Community Day

    Was just scanning through replies to the clubs tweet. Just the usual dreary, glass half empty, won't give the club credit for anything bollocks.

    £5 tickets for Accrington - Community Day

    Some really cynical reactions to this on twitter etc. This is great news. There are 8 days to go and most people won't even have thought about purchasing yet, so not sure what point those people moaning about tickets 'sold' are getting at. Also 14,000 tickets given to schools won't mean 14,000...

    Coventry transfer deadline day

    Have any of our promotion rivals lost any key players? (too lazy to check myself).

    Coventry transfer deadline day

    People being a bit presumptuous about JCH and the potential to wreck team spirit. We have strong characters and leaders in the dressing room, and football is littered with examples of footballers with the rotten apple tag who have moved on and been successful. This isn't a crochet society, it's...

    This manager and team deserve backing

    Think we'll be well short of 10k on Tuesday unfortunately, although think Accrington will be a lot bigger than many seem to think, should be over 20k, pretty much every casual supporter I've spoken to is planning to go (although a home draw the week after could reduce that somewhat). Hopefully...

    The good the bad and the ugly MK Dons stadium

    I do wish you had though, because I condemned the bottle throwing, just as everyone else has. I was referring to the outrage about a few fans spilling onto the pitch in celebration and making the general point that I didn't see any aggressive behaviour all day. You'll always get a handful of...

    I didn't excuse the bottle throwing, did you actually read my post?
