No-one is expecting 27,000 every game. Don't believe anyone has ever said that. Think most people were expecting 15,000+ on Saturday though and that I think was a very sensible notion before the game.

So 11,000 and less the rest of the season?

First ever season at the Ricoh. First 7 games QPR - 23,000 Southampton - 23,000 Reading - 22,074 Hull -21,161 Watford (evening game) - 16,978 Crystal Palace - 24,438 Luton - 22,228 Feelgood factor, excitement at new stadium, fresh start. We had some restricted capacities too i believe at...

I do think a few people are missing the point slightly. This isn't about what our crowds were like before we left the city, or how they compare to other clubs, or how they are so much better than Sixfields, this is all about a positive feeling around the club and the city of Coventry itself and...

Yep. Politicians Tax Collectors Traffic Wardens Lenny Henry Sixfielders Any more?

Those slagging the Sixfielders off for going up should now be slagging all the fans for now not going up the Ricoh.

Hypothetically; One single week. City at home to Wolves in a league game. Saturday. Both teams in top 6. City at home in JPT Regional Final. Win would take City through to Wembley. Tuesday City at home to Liverpool, FA Cup. Saturday. What would the crowds be? Would people still say they...

Just think the 'carnival' feelgood factor and excitement around the city of having the club home should have extended past one single game. All we did yesterday was revert to pre Sixfields attendances once again. I was truly expecting the first 3 or 4 home games to have very good attendances...

It's actually 7 games undefeated in total. Yeovil Gilingham Wycombe (JPT) Swindon MKD Barnsley Sheff Utd.

Well bring a kid for a quid would be a good start. Full price for adult, bring a kid with your for a pound. We need to think about the next generation of City fans anyway don't we.

Well they're not coming when we are winning. We are unbeaten in SEVEN matches. What's it going to be like when we go on a bad run?

I know and I accept that. I just can't get my head around losing 16,000 fans in one single week though. That for me is just incredulous.

You're changing allegiance? :confused:

No, I can't entirely agree with that. I recall having a big row with a close friend when we were playing Chelsea. He kept going on and on about Chelsea at home and I said the bigger game was Sheff Utd in the league, but he was adamant it was Chelsea. I felt much more inclined to go to the...

Totally agree with that, hill. Spot on.

Tis a worrying aspect of his game that. He lacks a bit of sharpness in our own penalty box and I think he can be turned quite easily at times.

They shouldn't be any problems at all for Preston I would have thought. The way things are going it will be only 10,000 there tops anyway.

Definitely at fault for the goal though. He was solid besides that, but that one slip cost us a goal, that's why I plumped for a 6.

But I think you are missing the point slightly there, Evans, that after 18 months away and a 27,000 crowd for that first game, at the moment we shouldn't be a 10,000 fan team! Surely the feelgood factor and euphoria of coming home has to last for more than just one single game hasn't it? I...

Yep. Agree with that.
