Yet we had nearly a whole block spare.

Had a celebrity guest there today Rob Beckett was there,who he was supporting IDK but probably the baggies.

You reckon?…

We don't have low wages

Coventry has highest wages in region as map shows huge gender pay gap

People in Coventry take home an average of £798 per week

Don’t believe it, will be the council staff skewing that.

Saying the average wage 40k, I know a lot of people and the vast majority earn nowhere near that.

I would say we do and the cost of things like food and fuel have increased dramatically.

Why is always the council staff. What about the people in the private sector whose wages are so low they have to claim benefits to top up their pay.

Boro charging away fans £29 for adults, £21 for over 65s and £15 quid for under 16s.

I don't think those things have increased specifically in Coventry

Other towns and cities have council workers I believe

And yes, of course there will be people earning less. That is why its the average

And it also doesn't factor in that Coventry has high housing costs compared to wages.

Game should never have been cat a+ really. We'll be back to a full house next week, probably a gate of 31K. When you factor in additional ticket sales, possible ST resale and the benefit of having 2000 people extra in the ground spending, I'd imagine revenues will be higher next week than this, in what is meant to be a lower profile game. Kind of defeats the object.

Doesn't help that a lot of st holders didn't turn up today, particularly in family zone, so probably a good deal fewer than 29K in there.

There shiuldnt even be a cat a plus .. we havent sold out either so far

Still can't believe Bristol City is Cat A either.

Another standard Championship game at a horrible time of the year.

Sort of agree although Swansea is pretty much already a sell-out and its over a month away. I hate the prices especially the kids but you can't argue that the Swansea game will bring in record gate receipts from home fans.

The swansea game is on a traditional football day .. was always going to sell well

I'm sure there are pockets of seats still to open up but as it stands there are only single seats available across the stadium for Charlton other than block 9. Pretty much guaranteed to sell-out with the ticket exchange open. 31.5K odd.

Would have been the same yesterday if had been priced right.

 

[CovRes]

Felt like there were more West Brom than they had anticipated. Block 9 started nearly empty but clearly a few had decided to migrate there to give the baggies fans some grief.

From the Cov Telegraph, ATTENDANCE: 29,216 (1,482 away).

Which was the third lowest away attendance of the season. And half of what they brought on Good Friday last season.
