Will we sell them all?

Will we flop as we have so often under the pressure of big crowds?

Is this the most important game of the season so far?

Discuss..

It is on land owned by a consortium headed by owner and chairman Winckleman. They built one tier then sold land to retail units to pay for completion of upper tier. As far as I know, the club - via that consortium - owns the lot.

I for one am glad of the extra tickets

My indecisiveness almost meant i was going to miss out!

Who'd have thought though that our biggest following (with the exceptions of Arsenal and Spurs) would be to Milton Keynes?

Currently we are a top top TOP side, I havent followed us for many years until the start of this season when we hit rock Bottom. I must say, the away support for the SKy Blues is absolutely staggering.

I was going out Boozing in Bedworth on Saturday but I am in two minds at the moment, I have got the pass either way. MK Donsa away is calling me.

Remember us packing out the away end at Ashton Gate last season in that 'must win' game. Bloody toothless display!

Indeed we are, though Saturday is one of the hardest games this season.

I never went that game. Had one ticket and it was either me or the old man who could go. He hadnt managed too many away games before that one so i let him have the ticket for the game. Bloomin glad i did

Safe to say i don't think we will ever see such a performance (or non-performance) like it again, least not under Robins. I don't think he'd allow even half as bad a performance leg alone one that bad!

yes, it will take a hell of a lot more than that after what they have done to us over the last 3 years.

There were a lot of 'must win' games last season. The fans turned up. The team didn't.

That was then, this is now. Now we have a real team, playing for (what has to be said) a real Manager.

Last time I recall us doing well with a big away following in the league was Peterborough under Coleman.

We won 1-0 with a John Stead goal and were around the play off's on the back of a good run. That was around March 2010 and we played another 11 games and won none.

Fair enough.

If they secure 4/4 surely they would've built a lot of bridges...

It may give an indication to how we will fare without Talisman
McGoldrick, if he leaves.
Is it the most important game of the Season? well it could be
but if we lose I don't think the damage would be terminal, It
would be disappointing to end our unbeaten run, but laws of averages means it will happen at some stage.
given our current away form, I remain positive that we can get something from this game. The current folk lore, sugests, "When McGoldrick doesn't score we don't win"...well he won't score on Saturday, that for sure.

The thing with this if he dont score we dont win lark is most the time he's contributed a goal or two to a 3-4 goal margin, not saying he isn't important I'd be over the moon if we kept in but i certainly think we'd still be winning games

"Away supporters are located in the North Stand at one end of the stadium where normally around 3,000 fans can be accommodated. If demand requires it then the corners to either side of this stand can also be allocated increasing the allocation to over 6,000."

I can see this turning into pandemonium tomorrow as so many City fans look to pick up tickets from a ticket booth at MK. Remember its cash only for those buying here { Not credit cards} and there could be 1500 or so Sky Blues doing this. Get there very early chaps or you could be queuing outside for the first half !!
