    Maidstone Tickets

    Why? Historically Birmingham & Villa were Warwickshire clubs as well. And places like Stratford and Henley in Arden are just as close to them as they are to us.

    I would argue that this is our catchment area. Population within that is about 790k, which is similar to Suffolk. Like you say there might be some parts of Suffolk that support Norwich, but its fair to say the vast majority of the county would see Ipswich as their team

    Maidstone Tickets

    Portman Road has a capacity of 29k so 30k+ crowds might be a bit of a stretch! Ipswich are the same as any other club that spent a long period going through mediocrity who have suddenly come good. Of course they’re going to get good crowds. If you rank every club across the decades Ipswich...

    CCFC 10 years from now...

    Incredible to see how much everything about the club has changed, and all of it is down to Robins. I know Sisu are now gone, but almost all of his good work so far was under their watch. Has there ever been another club in the modern era that has changed its fortunes so much without changing...

    Maidstone Tickets

    Ipswich’s post 2010 attendances weren’t great in the championship. They weren’t getting anything that we wouldn’t have got if we’d been in that position at the time. Like us, going down and then rebuilding seems to have grown their support

    Not this thing about population sizes again. We know that it’s not comparable. Has people believing that Coventry is bigger than Leicester & Nottingham

    We lost to a non league team just 13 months ago. We shouldn't be cocky

    Home fans in South Stand v Preston - Trial Confirmed

    Its best if it doesn't sell too well during a trial run. I feel that the purpose of this isn't to see if the demand is there, just to demonstrate that it can be done safely and practically for when the demand is there. Too big a crowd in there to start with will cause chaos and then that will...

    statues

    He should obviously have a statue. The man has literally saved Coventry City. I honestly believe we would've ended up non league if he hadn't joined back in 2017. However he absolutely shouldn't have a statue whilst he is still manager. Praise in the form of a statue should only be after his...

    Front section of 25 has the camera for televised games so probably can't be opened anyway

    Maidstone Tickets

    Blocks A, C, D, F have a combined capacity of 500 Block 12 is the segregation block and hasn’t been open once this season. It has a capacity of 450. Block 13 has a capacity of 380. So all those empty blocks you quoted have a combined 1400 seats. Not exactly a lot.

    It’s not luck that some teams are worse than others in a pyramid system

    I like games like this. 3 pts, but a good reminder that if we want wins we have to work hard for them

    Good. I’d be more concerned about players looking happy to come off

    Think Stoke have the same problem as us with the location of TV cameras. They get decent crowds but it always looks empty
