    6 final tickets per STH

    Where did I say that? We have stubs from the early rounds because we are supporters and we go whenever we can! Last week we were promised 2nd priority, and on that basis I confidently shelled out a lot of money on rail tickets. They reneged on that this afternoon, and now I find have no...

    6 final tickets per STH

    There’s everything wrong with it Nick. Regular supporters who don’t happen to be Season Ticket holders are getting zero recognition. As Hill says, the club explicitly stated before the semi-final “Season Ticket holders & PSL holders would be given first priority on tickets for the final...

    Yakubu

    Yes. that was my first thought too. Hartson made a BIG difference to the team but sadly a couple of months too late, and this has the same feel about it. Hope I'm wrong.

    Shameless Charity Plug...

    The link seems to be working fine now. Have you considered starting at John O‘Groats to get gravity on your side?

    Welcome to the shadowplay

    My head agrees with you Grendel. But my heart is so happy at the prospect of a day at Wembley trying to win a trophy, with my family all there and up to 40,000 people supporting the Sky Blues. We’ve had next to nothing for at least 15 years, arguably 30. It’s not just “families with young...

    Kick Off time Confirmed for Wembley

    I'm not into cars, but that's a wonderful thing, and I'd love to hear a bit more about it. I don't mean to be impolite, but did I spot some traces of smoke from the engine?

    Why not adopt your train tickets strategy – buy seats at every level for all points of the compass, then beat yourself up about it. You’re a man after my own heart Otis :)

    Your user name isn’t an ironic one then? I always imagined you might be 6’8” or something :)

    Player Ratings

    But he had a really great game against Bolton, constantly harrying the opposition, and with a decent amount of skill. So I've seen him twice and he's been terrific twice. Has he really been crap in all the matches in between? Genuine question, not a dig.

    Wembley Tickets...

    Torch please don’t fret, your family will have whatever tickets they need. Regardless of all the bun fights on this site, there’s not the slightest doubt that you have a wealth of friends here that will do whatever it takes to sort it for you. You’re Sky Blue through and through, and everyone...

    Wembley Tickets...

    Are you sure you don't have stubs somewhere? When you pay at the cash turnstile, they still give you a ticket.

    A Few Thoughts From Last Night...

    Jodi’s still a teenager FFS! The talent is definitely there, he just lacks experience and he’s playing in a struggling team. Last night’s match and the almost brutal tactics of the other side were a massive test, which as far as I’m concerned he passed, and it will do him the world of good...

    Who is it that says the kids aren't bothered?

    That kid’s reaction was a model of restraint and maturity compared to my mine at the game. I went absolutely flipping mental, and there’s still a silly grin on my face 24 hours later :) OK it’s not the world’s most sought-after trophy, but this day out to Wembley feels like walking into the...

    New stadium in 2026?

    A proposal like this wouldn't surprise me at all. But if we were perceived to have moved to the suburbs of Birmingham, even if it is only 9 miles, it would destroy the identity of the club. Travelling distance isn’t the point – we can’t go to a different town IMO. I guess you could argue that...

    New stadium in 2026?

    But HS2 is shaking things up a lot, and a road from the A46 at Stoneleigh past the Uni and out towards the A45 / A452 is on the cards.

    What this transfer window tells you

    All plausible explanations, and naturally none of them indicate a competent plan to get us out of trouble :(

    What this transfer window tells you

    Completely agree with all of that OSB. Do you have any theory on why we didn’t accept the bids which were received – as Nick says, it was surprising that we decided to stand firm. The policy in the past has been to roll over and accept derisory amounts of cash for key players. It all adds to...

    What this transfer window tells you

    I feel it started that season we sold Juke, even though he was absolutely vital to staying up. The policy hasn’t changed, it’s just being stated more explicitly now. We've been run as a zombie club.
