It's easier than you think, you just need to drive to Stoke on Trent.

It really doesn't. Compared to some of the shit fans of other clubs sing, its pretty inoffensive. Most football chants are pretty naff when you think about it. That one's no different. Vocal support has been excellent this season. Shouldn't beat ourselves up.

We all know that the only way to get the fans back is success on the pitch. Two wins on the bounce may have got us all buzzing, but it won't be enough for many. It's a Tuesday, and doubt Crewe will bring more than 400. It'll be 10K or thereabouts. On the plus side, last season we'd be...

Aren't that many seats showing as available, some blocks pretty much full. Hard to say with north stand closed though. About 12-13k at a guess.

Most noteworthy is that the club effectively no longer have a ticket office. They'll be able to sell tickets from the retail tills if needed, but the plan is to do away with the idea of a dedicated ticket office and push everything online (hence the online discount). For high demand away...

It will be a two carriage service now, every 15 minutes instead of 1 carriage per hour as it is currently. Don't know whether the frequency/number of carriages will increase further on matchdays.

OP might have overreacted a bit, but the shop staff are never going to win any customer service awards. I was in the shop of Saturday and had a pleasant chat with the woman serving, just after she had spent 5 minutes listening to some dullard moan about Tim Fisher. They are on the front line...

From somebody who works at the club. No reason not to believe them so thought i'd mention it. But if it isn't I'm not arsed. Nike, Puma, Adidas - all handstiched by a child labourer in Bangladesh. Same shit different logo.

New kit by Nike I hear.

Some of those points are valid, not sure about the issue of residents objecting is massively relevant though. The site is east of the airport accessed direct of the A45 (where the Holiday Inn is), and I imagine there would be no through route to Baginton at all, and I'm not sure how residents...

It will be sorted. The issues there are primarily down the to fact that all traffic passing through Tollbar has to use the roundabout. The bulk of that traffic (A45-A46) will now go through the underpass meaning that traffic on the island itself will be much lighter. ...and anyway, I think...

The stadium would fall under Rugby Borough - on greenbelt east of the current BP between it and the A45 (behind Holiday Inn).

I don't usually get involved in all this hearsay, but I have had two conversations now with people closely connected with the club, albeit in completely different ways, that suggest something is going on. They both basically said SISU are working with a backer - its not a take over, more of an...

If the rumours I've heard in the last few days are true I'd be lumping on at those odds.

Sadly not! I've been about, just avoided this place. I had come to the conclusion that it was full of lunatics. Still, it's good to know there are still a few flying the flag for sanity!

Barnsley metro area more like 230K. But yes, attendances need to be better. They were a little artificial last season. Starting the season in Northampton meant a lost summer of ST sales and we never recovered especially when the season went pear-shaped. Expect crowds will improve notably...

It's a measure of how low our expectations have become that we greet the appointment of a manger operating well below his level with predictions of a top half finish (in the 3rd division). We've just witnessed an awful awful season. We were terrible, and yet just 5 more wins over 46 games and...

You're basically moaning about the irrationality of football fans. Really? Have you ever been to the football? Have you ever stood there while thousands of people around you are going bat-shit crazy - the kind of crazy you never see outside of a football ground. Nothing else makes you behave...

I'm pretty sure he wasn't talking specifically about the flag incident and was making a general point about the symbolism of today and how it underlines just how far the club has fallen and how bleak it's future is - and for many people in Coventry, the football club means a great deal to them...

Not necessarily, there are lots of revenue opportunities that might present themselves even without the sort of bells and whistles the Ricoh has. There would be conference facilities, banqueting suites, function rooms for weddings, parties and that sort of thing. Presumably there would be a...
