The orange on black is a great throwback to the old Highfield Road one

I've never been able to figure out the tune of it. It sounds more like a speech than a song

Doesn't makes sense though because blocks 2 & 3 is full of nutters now as well, and they opened up block 4

Boro will have nothing to play for so yes, a draw is not unrealistic. I can take making the playoffs and then getting battered by Luton or Middlesbrough. However not making the playoffs at all now would hurt

Birmingham fans have blown Eustace's cover

Nice little coincidence Highest ever attendance at Highfield Road 29th April 1967 Highest ever (league) attendance at the Arena 29th April 2023

Just did the percentage (impressed with myself at being able to do this after a few pints!). Average attendance in 2016-17 (when Robins took over) was 9,118 This year 20,385 124% increase in 6 years. Not bad at all!

Also, them cutting the sound system out before the game during Take me Home and just letting the crowd sing it was something else

I was walking across car park A at about 2:05 and I could hear the singing in the concourses from there. Unbelievable noise. The Twist and Shout part when their player was down was brilliant. Even those in the posh seats were jumping around

Boro are pretty much guaranteed 4th place regardless

7th best in the division. Also today was the highest attendance for a league game since 1980.

Not that rumour again 🤦‍♂️

Most Blues fans I’ve ever encountered are alright. Every club has idiots

I imagine next week will be a repeat of our final regular game in league 2

There was about 20 policemen stood around by the A444 roundabout doing nothing

Well we’re all going to be completely in the dark about other scores anyway due to the piss poor signal around the ground

I had tonsillitis that day and felt awful anyway. The illness combined with nerves meant I was throwing up all afternoon. I remember it was the first time I’d seen Sky use the “as it stands” table showing us as staying up and wishing they wouldn’t because it was tempting fate!

Strangely I wasn’t nervous about the league 2 play offs, despite it having more riding on it. I think the previous 7 years had taught me to be ambivalent towards city. Since then I’ve fallen back in love with my Sky Blues

Didn’t sleep well. I just want a win today. Make the play offs. If we lose in them so be it. I just want us to prove we can actually get there

Its impossible for us to be out of the running before the Middlesbrough game. No matter what happens this weekend, we still go into the final game with a chance
