    MK Dons - Ticket Sales Thread

    I don’t get why people don’t get it, as this match is so different from a run-of-the-mill L2 encounter, and it was always going to be a scramble for tickets. It’s not a huge deal for me to miss it, but it might be a memorable one. The ST holder is king when buying tickets for cup ties like...

    Big Cyrille

    I’m pretty sure that Cyrille himself said afterwards that he accepted the decision. There was a slight nudge on the defender by Houch as he flicked it on – but the defender was very weak and I reckon the goal would have been given 8 or 9 times out of 10. Such a shame, because Cyrille would have...

    MK Dons - Ticket Sales Thread

    Nope. Over the last 30 mins refreshed loads of times. logged in and out a few times, used 2 different browsers, tried singles and multiples, all areas, specific blocks, but all to no avail. Pleased for anyone who's going, should be good. Anyway, I'm not going on principle as I don't want to...

    MK Dons - Ticket Sales Thread

    All through, I've been going for normal Adult tickets (not ST). I've mostly gone for "All areas" , but have also tried spcecific blocks (including U30 as suggested, and U30A), I've gone for singles as well as 3 or 4. But none of them will let me buy.

    Tried a single and that didn't work either. If they are not available, the least the club could do is put an update on the website to avoid people wasting time, especially on a working day.

    MK Dons - Ticket Sales Thread

    I qualify as Match Package Holder, but it won't let me buy - "None of the prices you selected could be found. Please contact the box office directly." Logged out and back in again - any other tips anyone? Are they now selling the Upper Tier or what? And the "Latest News" on the CCFC website...

    Big Cyrille

    Yes that incredible Spurs match, and that time-stands-still double-header goal are among my favourite Sky Blue memories - I was in the West End that dark afternoon and the place went absolutely mental.

    Big Cyrille

    And the one of him playing table football with the fans! The two pictures sum him up. Choking up a bit reading these pages and seeing the photos. I'm very proud that Coventry City helped him achieve his greatest sporting triumph, and that Cyrille's moment of absolute glory belongs to us too.

    Big Cyrille

    Feeling shocked and quite distraught about this. What a great man and a uniquely talented player who gave us some unforgettable times. RIP Cyrille and thanks for everything.

    Goalkeeping over the years

    Of the keepers since Oggy, I’d say only Westwood has been top drawer. I recall Hedman making loads of bad errors on corners and crosses that contributed greatly to getting relegated from the Prem. He was nowhere near as good as he thought he was, and I’m not sure why he always seems to get...

    So frustrating being a Cov fan

    For several decades the fortunes of the Sky Blues meant absolutely everything to me – I lived and breathed CCFC. I’ve trained myself in recent years to take a step back, and days like today don’t really bother me too much, which is great because my weekend no longer depends on the performance...

    I suggest you set aside a minumum of 45 minutes if you want to do a thorough job!

    MK Ticket Pricing

    Often, but not always ;) Having said that, giving concessions to people purely on the basis of age is always going to be a blunt instrument, and I don't think there's an easy answer. Where exactly do you set the line - cheap tickets extended to the under-25's? Under-30's? I suggest cool kid's...

    7833toMK.... come on back the lads.

    Just seen this Stupot - I can assure you that nothing was further from my mind. People who oppose the MK thing and/or Wasps, and feel strongly enough about it to act upon it, have my complete respect. It's only the constant accusations of hypocrisy/double standards/immorality that fly in the...

    7833toMK.... come on back the lads.

    Cheers Duffer - I know exactly where you are coming from, and completely respect your stance. I guess it's very patronising to say that someone is only doing something to make themselves feel better, and I realise I started it :) However, you're wrong about me not being comfortable with going...

    7833toMK.... come on back the lads.

    Obviously I can't guarantee what they will do, but their ground is well suited to accommodating a very large away contingent. We took a lot there a few years back (a bore draw if I recall correctly), and we still had room to spare in the top tier.

    7833toMK.... come on back the lads.

    Reasons for never going to MK:- To put them out of business – very unlikely To prevent more franchising – the football authorities have made sure it can’t happen again To ram home their immorality to them - everybody knows the history and that it wasn’t right (despicable in fact), but maybe...

    Fa Cup Draw in Coventry

    Quite pleased with the draw, looking forward to a big day out with the Sky Blue Army. And delighted with the coverage we got tonight on the TV, which probably did more to put CCFC in a good light than anything in ages. The players (current & former) acquitted themselves really well, and the...
