Huge game, 3pm Saturday kick-off, weather shit but should add to the occasion.

Looking forwards to this.

 

[edgy]

60ish tickets left. Should be biggest home crowd yet.

 

[lord_garrincha]

It was also a honking, rainy, day when Fulham came here last.

Will take the same result!

Coventry to win 2-1 Pinnock to score

 

[fernandopartridge]

Have seats about 9 rows back from the front. Tad concerned about the weather forecast, it looks shocking. Will the club be giving out clear plastic ponchos

Strangely similar weather to last time we played Fulham, it absolutely pissed down

Close to 1K tickets left now. Can't believe how many have appeared on the exchange.

Weather innit

Fairweather fans

 

[Skybluedogwood]

Not sure if it's a new thing but the exchange says someone with "status" can buy and assign a ticket to someone without purchase history. That's one way of avoiding the whole £45 membership thing if for instance you want to take a friend or relative.

 

[Grendel]

My ticket hasn’t changed from Newcastle yet. Normally does next day after last game

Mine was the same after the Brighton game. However, I have since discovered that swiping to the left when looking at the old ticket in your wallet reveals the newer one. Give it a go

 

[Perryccfc]

Talksport reporting the game could be at risk due to weather. Would be class to drive 3 hours there in crap weather just to be turned round.

 

[Essexrobbie]

To be honest this is such an import game, id rather it was put off and we get to play it in decent weather. Its not like we're tied down in cup games at the moment or European league games.

 

[Skybluedogwood]

A delay might bring a few more options with players returning from injury or coming to terms with the “Coventry way”. ….

 

[Briles]

Doubt it will be called off, last game to be called off for bad weather in the prem was 2 years ago.

 

[chiefdave]

If they're going to call it off hopefully they do it sooner rather than later but I would be surprised.

Although I guess the fact as its not a televised game, at least not here, will mean less pressure to play no matter what.

 

[CV22SBA]

It just says "Its the most likely game to be called off in the Premier League due to high winds"

Are Premier League matches at risk of being postponed due to Storm Austen?

Weather warnings are in place across the country this weekend and Premier League football could be affected. Storm Austen has hit the UK with heavy rainfall and wind speeds in excess of 80mph. Much…

Try clicking the 3 dots in the top right then Pass Details. Switch off automatic updates / swipe up to close the ticket / reopen the ticket and then turn the updates back on. Worked for me in the past but ever since that time its automatically updated.

Wind tomorrow described as moderate about 20mph...plenty of rain though

for some reason it showing as hidden so I’ve undidden it and refreshed and now it’s working

 

[jto123]

I’m travelling from London at 11am. Surely they will have called whether it’s off by then?

 

[ptr]

when did they start moving games from a Monday to a 3pm on a Saturday ffs

 

[Saddlebrains]

It wont be called off

If that play off semi v Notts County at didnt get called off then fucking nothing will at the CBS. Absolute lake that night

 

[Tommo1993]

Wouldn’t mind awfully if they did knock it on the head. I’ve been out in that all day

Bring back that amazing summer that everyone was slagging off.

 

[theferret]

Can't believe some people are almost eager, after a long miserable week at work, to see a Saturday 3pm game be called off and rearranged on a horrible Tuesday night some time in November, just because it's a bit wet. Heavy rain doesn't hit until kick off time anyway, so close to zero chance this gets called off before the game. Gutted if it is. The thought of it has dragged me through the week.

 

[Skybluekyle]

Where could I watch city V Fulham on TV as it 3pm Saturday . Will it be on DMZ erc

 

[Grendel]

Why would it be called off?

Saying gusts of over 40mph. PLAY IT ON THE GROUND LADS!!

I'm putting Rushworth to score anytime.
