We had this with West Brom a couple of years ago with talks of a boycott, but they then had a run of form before playing us and sold their tickets. The same will apply this time. If they are in form and feeling positive they will sell out regardless, but if not they will make a big fuss about boycotting the game.
Completely wrong. They were predicted to bring 1,500 when there was talk of a boycott, but then they went on a winning run and bought about 4,500 come the game.They didn't sell them out. Just before Christmas 2022(?) they only brought about 1500.

Coventry v West Brom - Match preview
Carlos Corberan has vowed Albion will give their all at Coventry tonight to repay the army of supporters heading down the M6.www.expressandstar.com
It's an absolute disgrace and whoever set these pricing structures should be ashamed of themselves. Categorising games in the Championship is pointless, every team has the same draw for me and couldn't give a shit who the opposition is, I'm going to see the City.
I haven't had a season ticket for the last few years but go up fairly regularly when we can but there's no way I can justify paying £180 for for a family of 4 to go to this game. Such a shame as I still see us as a working class city and always thought we were a club that had a close connection with the fans.
Tickets are overpriced of course.
But it's billionaire-backed clubs like Birmingham splashing cash on transfers and wages that pushes other clubs into measures like this just to keep up.
If they’re happy to celebrate their contribution to fueling inflation in football, then they can't moan about paying the price.
Both games will also probably sell out.Well it isn’t as we are only charging it for two games where we know there will be a huge away allocation
£60 for those in the west stand.Is it £55 for premium seats?

Surge pricing. Flights, holidays, concerts, trains,even now some London pubs. Will be everywhere soon.But that isn't the case for everyone.
More people will be far more interested in seeing us play the likes of Leicester and Birmingham than Oxford or Charlton, so demand is likely going to be higher for those games.
An awfully strange horse to back for a City that suffered a blitz of it's own and saw 21 of it's own citizens killed by an IRA bomb in the 70s
Some absolutely embarrassing comments from Birmingham fans.
This comment is the most ironic:
"Then that pathetic "we won the league at St Andrews song" that they sing to try and rile us.
I can't even begin to understand why they think that song would remotely matter to Blues. Very weird.
Luftwaffe fancy dress for this one, Blues fans."
Claims the song does not matter but is so angry that he goes on to claim Birmingham fans should dress up as the Luftwaffe.
2241 people in Birmingham were killed in the Blitz.
Aren't away tickets capped at £30 in the PL?If we go up to the PL ticket prices will be a lot more expensive.
YesAren't away tickets capped at £30 in the PL?
I've hatched a cunning plan ever since 2023 - It's called 'putting some money aside on a regular basis'.If we go up to the PL ticket prices will be a lot more expensive.
'Attendance' doing a lot of heavy lifting there.All this talk about ticket prices has made me remember the time we made every seat in the ground a fiver and a pound for kids, got the highest attendance in League 2 history and were 2-0 down to Accrington Stanley after 15 mins
Simpler times

Supermarkets!Surge pricing. Flights, holidays, concerts, trains,even now some London pubs. Will be everywhere soon.
They didn't though, (for Wrexham) they charged £30 for adults and £14 for kids, that's a far cry from. £45/£35.I wonder if that lot were so up in arms when they charged Wrexham supporters £35 for a televised Monday night game last season, or Burton Albion £37.50 on Boxing Day (For the third division)
It’s why it will never change, football is too tribal - They will understandably slaughter us for this, but when it’s their own club sweep it under the carpet
Both games will also probably sell out.
If Albion is a sell out, I will drill a hole in my left testicle and live stream it.

Luckily for you I thought it was about Leicester.If Albion is a sell out, I will drill a hole in my left testicle and live stream it.
I agree the price is too high. But give over with the gratitude of they helped keep us alive etc.Have to say I’m embarrassed at the pricing particularly considering they helped to keep our club alive. Without them would we even be here now?
I look forward to having to pay the same at their place thanks to King

Without them, we'd have played elsewhere.
They can't charge us £45.

If we hadn’t of used their sh** hole of a ground to play,we would have gone elsewhere.
It suited them to have us there at the time because they needed the money.
I had a season ticket whilst we were there. The ground was a dump, and they didn’t make us welcome.
