A first round League Cup game against Bristol City at a neutral venue. Can hardly contain my excitement.

I’m thinking from more of a ‘keeping the players fit’ perspective tbf. Got zero interest in actually going to the game hahahah

In these times we have to stick by our club even more and help where we can, those who are able to attend and would have at the CBS imo should make an effort to attend at St. Andrews otherwise whats the point in following the team, yes its at another venue but it isnt really that far away, and also I would love to go back to the Roost full of City fans

If we do have to play our "home" games at another stadium there should be free travel to the games and the "insects" should be forced to cover the cost

what's the reduced capacity at St Andrews, is there enough for all season ticket holders and the required away allocation?

Most definitely, but we as fans should still make an effort to get to the games, the squad, MR and AV deserve the upmost support we can provide

Won't be going to Birmingham. This shouldn't be happening again. Can't see their fans taking well to it at all after the stick we've given their fans in recent matches.

No chance every ST holder goes, walk up sales will be down

The financial implications could be dire here, the club will have budgeted for 20k gates for yesterday and the Huddersfield and WBA games - Wouldn’t rule out one of the big 3 being sold to keep within budget, it’s a worrying possibility having to return to St Andrew’s, or any neutral venue in that case

IF games are moved to st andrews for a month or so I think we should all support the team more than ever - I certainly would go if this happened. In this case - as opposed to last time when it was uncertain - there will be a light at the end of the tunnel and a return to the CBS in the foreseeable future (once the pitch is ok)

Whilst I agree income will be down, as many City fans as possible should try for the team, we owe it to them

Anywhere other than St Andrews.

Realistically, I cannot see them wanting us back, especially with their own issues currently.

I haven’t got any issues with Brum, the same as Im sure most City fans. Quite a lot of them are a friendly bunch just like us. There are dickheads on either side, but most of the “stick” is light hearted banter between the fans, there is no real rivalry there. If it wasnt for them god knows where we would be

The point of following the team is to play in Coventry something we seem to manage for a couple of years then mone again

I don’t really believe the rumour tbh it’s £50 grand a game there and I don’t see wasps forking out without a fight

At the end of the day (again) we have to support the team, wherever we’ll be we’ll be. We can play in East Africa for all I care we are still Coventry City Football Club, and nothing will change that (other than a Red Bull takeover)

We spent most of the game last season singing about how we 'Won the League at a shithole' and there was trouble at the home fixture. They won't welcome us this time.

I assumed the season ticket money is released - someone on here said it’s on a game to game basis

The relationship between the two sets of fans soured massively after the ‘home’ cup game in Jan 2020

Would be a disaster to have to go back there again and wouldn’t be something their lot would take too kindly too

Just depends if you indulge in that sort of nonsense. Any brum fans / pubs were always fine.

Tell that to the Cov fans who had their windows put through when parking at St Ands.

They’re a bunch of knuckle draggers who still live off a fearsome reputation in the 80s but are actually just a bunch of shithouses nowadays
