That includes 2,000 cubs and scouts - better keep your woggle in a safe place!!

Brilliant, with the Sky Blue Neanderthal Legion & Birmingham Idiot Impi apparently planning a dust up somewhere that'll be a lesson Baden-Powell never envisaged. Dib dib dib!

15,000 cov already isn't bad, blues only had about 17000 at their place when we played them earlier in the season.

Yes a bumper crowd should have the effect of lifting the players level of performance too.
Curiously some will go up to see how King will either twist the knife or fall on his sword in front of us.

All entertaining stuff!

But we tend to lose with bigger gates. Can't remember the last time Cov won in front of a gate over 25k?

That's a good point. I think there have been about 10 or 11 25K+ gates at the Ricoh and we have only won one of those games - against Wolves in our first season their (iirc).

It says 20K sold, so that is unlikely to include an additional 1000 tickets that haven't been allocated yet, as Blues haven't yet sold 5000. Also, there is never 1000 there from the schools giveaway - take up is usually quite low. No need to be quite so cynical, it'll be a much better turn out than we've had for a good while and hopefully a decent atmosphere and occasion.

School tickets are never given away, just sold cheaply. 4 tickets for £20 I think.

 

[Lord_Nampil]

Does this show we care more about the West midlands clubs than the East Midlands???

Great its over 20K hopefully we can get up to the 25K mentioned!!!

 

[LeamingtonBootBoy]

Blues had sold 4,700 by this morning.

That five game deal would tempt me if I wasn't a season ticket holder.
Brum, peterborough, pompy, milwall and donny.
