    Friday night games

    I am home for a few weeks so I bow to your experiences. I have seen more Wasps jackets, caps, hats etc than I have Coventry City merchandise. I have shopped at the Arena shop twice and saw Wasps wearing shoppers at Tescos and in M&S and Next.

    Happy Christmas Nick. Yes I suppose I am. Changes everything.

    One of my favourite festive games

    A 4-2 win at Luton, a 4-0 win against Liverpool, a 5-1 defeat at Leicester with Steve Lynex taking us apart. Still 4th in the table at Christmas.

    Friday night games

    My neighbor is season ticket holder and he is saying most of the fans are local. anecdotal yes but not a guess. I am not guessing that 26000 and 22000 were the last two premiership gates at the Ricoh for Wasps and even if lots of them were free tickets it doesn't change the dynamic.

    So you are guessing? But the facts are clear. Wasps are killing us. The people of Coventry have bought in to Wasps. Sad but true.

    You are so wrong and it matters not a jot. We got 25% of their gate over the weekend. We wouldn't get 26000 if we gave the tickets away and even if Gloucester's support was very large it doesn't change a thing. Wasps need taking down but sticking your head in the sand is exactly what our owners...

    Friday night games

    Wasps have not only taken a ground that was built for us but have captured the heart and soul of sports fans in the area. I was informed that most of the fans are from Coventry and local area and Wasps are now well and truly entrenched in Coventry. The question about success is valid but doesn't...

    Are we happy

    It's a marathon so fairly happy with our position but my god it is never easy supporting Coventry City and the mood swings from Morecombe to Wycombe reflects the season so far.

    No anticlimax here. Just get out of this horrible league and I would be delighted.

    Christmas message from Dave...

    My neighbor has just returned from "a great afternoon at the Ricoh" How the fuck has this happened? 26,000 watching Wasps and barely 7000 watching Coventry City in Coventry. I despair, I wouldn't have thought it possible and those responsible should just fuck right off.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Wycombe Wanderers Match Thread - Friday 22nd Dec

    On reflection I must say that last nights game was enjoyable from start to finish. Biamou is out of his depth and those that believe he is worth persevering with should look at his contribution to the goals column and that says it all. I thought the back line stood up doggedly to the task and...

    I can't agree that Wycombe are a poor side, they play to their strengths and with the beast as their focal point you can see why they hurt teams at our level

    That was a good game, we played well and it was a good atmosphere. Night matches are just better! Some very strong performances from most of the team but I fail to see what Biamou or DKE offered on the night. That was the Stokes of a couple of years ago and well done to the defenders in handling...

    So much for the air tight defence! We are handing them the initiative.

    Ten for £10 offer against Wycombe

    Yes, I am going to Carlisle too and travel back on the day of the Stoke game sadly.

    Ten for £10 offer against Wycombe

    All interesting points raised but these fans are out there. They are the 43000 at Wembley in April, the 28000 on the return to the Ricoh. This happened at Wolves in the eighties, they came back once a new regime was in place, once they progressed. The cycle we are in is dreadful but I don't...

    Ten for £10 offer against Wycombe

    You know the thing that happened recently that might put some off going.
