Got my ticket and looking forward to this as new ground for me and love a London trip. They only got 1.6K on Saturday and we have an allocation of 1K. Reckon we'll sell out being an early KO and on Sky?
Hoping for a ticket on general sale,If not ill go to the FLA march in London.
Good going. When is general sale?400 sold as of 12pm yesterday
Good going. When is general sale?
I think we'll sell 1500 if we beat Crewe.
Very nice new ground but very limited parking locally
It was originally developed for local non League side Wealdstone but I think they had financial issues and eventually Barnet took it over and developed it themselves
There is a clubhouse but it's quite small so anyone wanting a pre or post match drink would do better looking for a local pub
The local tube station is a short walk away
Park at Stanmore. One stop on the tube.
Does Duck miss this one or is it the week after he goes on international duty?
Good morning Coventry peeps. Not sure if being on Sky is a good thing or not but for those worried about tickets:
The Away Stand holds 1,800 so there will be further tickets. And we have the ability to give another 1000 fans seats in the old away stand (part of the Main West Stand). So unless you will sell over 2,800 (?) it's unlikely you'll have any issues. Both the away stand and the emergency away stand have great bars underneath - there is not much in the area, so drink in town (difficult with the k/o time) or in the club bars (lots of TV's / sofas / chairs styled after the 1966 WC winners in the hope that Luton fans wouldn't trash it).
You can park at the ground (£5 - get there early) or at Canons Park Underground (8 minute walk) - which is the best way of getting to the Hive anyway.You may find it quicker to get away parking at Stanmore and tubing it down to Canon Park just as its' easier to reach main roads).
As for the game - hard to know - we're alternating promotion / relegation standard performances, but been hit hard by the loss of first choice GK, LB, RB, CM and our two main strikers (league top & 2nd top scorer for the last two seasons in Akinde & club record signing Tarpey who lasted 3 minutes in his home debut before injuring himself). Initially we could sustain these losses as we have very talented youngsters - but they now to play every minute of every game, we we're conceeding a lot of last minute goals. We tonked Cambridge, out fought and beat Luton and outplayed Exeter at home (albeit Exeter beat us with a last minute goal), trashed Swindon 1-4 away, but were toothless against Stevenage, Crewe and Crawley, so maybe we play better against the good teams. You should win
thanks mate, how far is the walk from Edgeware tube? I know it's not the closest but it's easier to get to from Euston than Canons Park.
Thanks for info MCB, I'm sure that will assist those travelling - I'm making the journey with a small group by train and will pass on that info as an option.Good morning Coventry peeps. Not sure if being on Sky is a good thing or not but for those worried about tickets:

Very useful thanks. Been to your ground for a few U23 and U18 games, a nice stadium with good facilities and training pitchesGood morning Coventry peeps. Not sure if being on Sky is a good thing or not but for those worried about tickets:

Good, informative post, thank you. Looking forward to the day, and wishing you all the best for the season, except for a couple of games! Oh, and we're Cov, and won't be taking your 'you should win' for granted!Good morning Coventry peeps. Not sure if being on Sky is a good thing or not but for those worried about tickets:

I do the train to most England games, like MCB said from Euston turn right and a couple of mins walk to Euston Square. Jump on the tube to Baker Street (2 stops) and there is a pub right opposite the station called The Globe, it opens at 10am aswell so can have a few pints before the game. Then you can jump back on the tube (Jubilee Line) at Baker Street to Canons Park (10 stops).thanks mate, how far is the walk from Edgeware tube? I know it's not the closest but it's easier to get to from Euston than Canons Park.
