    Barnsley THIS Saturday

    In League 1 pre Covid we could comfortably take 2000-3000 fans most places depending on allocation. Here we have a nice 4000 odd capacity stand at Barnsley and we’ve sold 1500?! Excuses about prices, summer holidays, the new away kit not being out(!) or post-Covid worries would take a few...

    Barnsley THIS Saturday

    I still think even with higher ticket prices (Barnsley has stayed about the same, hasn’t it?) and fears of Covid, we should be taking 2.5K minimum....Particularly with how brilliant our away support has been since we we were last in the Championship. I really hope our away followings collapse...

    Barnsley THIS Saturday

    Does anyone have any idea on how many we have sold? The twitter admin is always pestered with that question so I didn’t want to add to that if the answer is already out there

    Where's Max?

    In our last season in League 1 he scored a decent amount of goals considering minutes on the pitch. Biamou would be an asset to any League 1 team. Even Bakayoko got a move to Bolton in League 1.

    Barnsley

    Well that’s where you haven’t read what I’m responding to. The post is stating that because his mate has to wait for general sale (and can’t buy in Priority 1) his friend won’t go and the poster has to go on his own.

    Barnsley

    This might be a shock for you, but for most clubs above League 1 level, that is completely normal. For away games in 90% of the Championship and all Premier League, it’s one per ST plus above a loyalty point threshold. Some teams even charge to have an away membership to apply for tickets. One...

    CCFC named and shamed for not paying minimum wage

    Agreed. The club are a lot more transparent and engaging with supporters than a few years ago. Previously we would have just had a photograph of the corner flag on the CCFC website with no further statement to make. As much as I would love this to be a SISU conspiracy, business and admin errors...

    Martin Cranie

    I've said the same thing since 30th April, along with the lack of width and pace further up the pitch.

    Martin Cranie

    I don’t know if you get your facts from Youtube too but last season Cranie played 23 league games (including 3 sub appearances and being subbed off 5 times) which is 50% of the 46 league games in the league. I get your point on mind and pace but I think it’s only Ostigaard that can stand up...

    Martin Cranie

    Really struggling to see why we are going for Cranie. As highlighted many times before, Hyam, Rose, McFadzean and now Cranie, move slower than a 1980s BBC abuse investigation. I’ve seen one FB poster say that Cranie is slow but McFadzean/Rose can cover in a back 3 for the lack of pace?! That’s...

    Masks at the Arena

    If you want to be cautious (which is perfectly fine) then that’s a good way of playing it and exactly what I did for the Wembley games of the Euros. It was only in the concourse areas I felt like it was necessary to wear my mask due the sheer volume of people crammed together to get to Kiosks...

    Behind the goal

    I don’t think there was a flood of people on SBT comparing the Old Telegraph Stand to the Dortmund wall... maybe a few optimistic teenagers on twitter that wrote to Dave Boddy, but that’s about it. Being realistic, until we get regular home crowds of 18,000-20,000, the atmosphere is going to be...

    New supporters club near town?

    New supporters club near town?

    The Aardvark does really well with students and residents and that’s just literally around the corner and difficult to get a table in there for the big matches. Hopefully the New Supporters Club could benefit quickly from that existing market and potentially attracting those heading to Cov...

    New supporters club near town?

    I’d be happy to go out of my way to support it before heading to the wheatsheaf. Great to see the club is starting to have a presence in the city other than a pokey unit in a retail park. It’s a pretty straight taxi drive from the new club to the ground/foleshill road too. I haven’t been out...

    Ticket prices

    Nail on the head, people complain about pricing but football club’s know you will stay pay it or (especially in the PL) there’s always somebody ready to take their place and pay the money. On another note, the individual ticket prices are aimed at encouraging people to commit to Season Tickets...

    European championships 2020 thread

    The middle tier was 1/3 full, top tier and bottom tier were rammed. I’m not saying there was 120K in the stadium but far more than the 60K it was supposed to be limited to.

    European championships 2020 thread

    People don’t seem to grasp, unlike club football, when England are involved in tournaments, millions of people are involved that wouldn’t usually take an interest in club football. Your average person gets swept in with ‘its coming home’, good weather, packed pubs and games on Freeview. This...

    European championships 2020 thread

    Have you got a link to the interview mate? You were on Coventry Live Online and Midlands Today discussing more than racism. It’s highly frustrating that the FA’s allocation of members (circa 8.5K tickets) are being tarred with the actions of drunk scrotums outside the ground and forcing their...
