    89845 was the gate so apologies, actually there was some Barca kits on kids but no groups of Barca fans and I think that 89845 is pretty close to 90k and if I am not mistaken that is more than 55000. M&B stand; bravo!

    I remember us taking more than that to Wolves in 73. Can anybody stand that or or shoot it down?

    We were picked off by the scousers that night. It was an great game but a truly unpleasant after match experience, coach window put in, clothes stolen etc....if my memory serves me right we had played Everton in a top of the table clash at goodison just before and lost 6-0.

    Many have taken more to old trafford, derby come to mind since we were there. Celtic took over 20000 to a testimonial

    Yes the club should do this but the fans should not need asking for a Wembley final. Sky blue should be wall to wall in our area. Actually I think we be coordinating how we are supporting the club on the day.

    A serious multi tasker, I like your thinking.

    Next Seasons Manager?

    Long ball is his modus operandi, has been and always will be. It is one thing to expect flowing football and get his style of play, but some on here were extolling his virtue of being a lower league specialist and was just what we needed to bully our way out of trouble. He has done just that...

    I agree, I like the Ricoh as a stadium, I hate the fact it belongs to another sporting club, I am incredulous how we got to this point. It is just not a part of my life like HR was and always will be, I suppose that just a fact of when I was born and when I was inducted into a Sky Blue life. Who...

    Hers the thing I can't fathom, on its last day HR looked the very best it ever did. Full of soul, ghosts and echoes of our past

    I never used to go up Swan lane but went up king richard street and I swear the moment I saw the coventry city football club sign I felt excited, I would look to see if we were on tv, then see if it was match of the day or star soccer. I would walk around the back of the west stand and go...

    I didn't use the definition but responded to calista I certainly understand there are reasons that you alluded to and what infuriates me is entitlement

    Not calling you anything, don't know you and not pointing any finger at any individual, just stating the definition of a real supporter is someone that is not wavering but steadfastly loyal. I certainly wavered during the sixfields debacle and found myself very much falling out of love with...

    Calista- As much as I want to blame everything on the owners I believe that you are pointing the finger in the wrong direction on this occasion. By the way I am in the same situation as you regarding tickets but surely this is not about customer relations as they have prioritized their loyal...

    I've decided that rather and wait until the stub day on the 8th March I am going to go in the Bobby Moore area and pay the big bucks. I didn't want to but its seems that its that or miss out and that is not an option for me and my 2 boys. So we will fly in on the 1st and fly out on the 3rd.

    The best way to get rid of SISU

    Very simply put and so right, if this is your club get behind the players and the badge, the rest is a side show

    London Calling.

    This post is apportioning blame for the supporters who followed their team like they did before and have done since. They don't have anything to make amends for. It is a sleight of hand that deflects away from the true villains of this debacle. I didn't go to Northampton, couldn't and wouldn't...
