Excellent in the first half especially. Loudest and most consistent I’ve heard us for a while.

Thought Saints fans were decent considering it was lowly Coventry, they seemed pretty up for it. Proper cup tie.

Was sitting on the left (as they were looking) of the Sky Blue Army and they were load and impressive.
Liads of Cov in our stand aswell joining in with the songs from the Cov end
To be fair to the Southampton fans they took it well when we scored but ultimately had the last laugh unfortunately.

Thought we were decent, but we have been better this season I think (Peterborough was miles better). Perhaps it was because I was in the bottom left corner next to their supporters. Thought we were good by the standards of most clubs, but a little under par for us.

Great scenes in the away end following the disallowed goal, looked crazy on the highlights.

That Waghorn miss will haunt me as much as O’Hare’s vs Brum a few years back.

I was in the corporate. Lots of Cov fans sitting together and making noise . Fair play to the stewarding for their patience and fair play to Saints fans for putting up with us.

Very subdued in second half imo. But we were well under the cosh for most of it. We’ve been much, much better at other games this season.

I took some video clips yesterday of the Coventry support from the home end but don’t know how to upload. Can anyone help. Make it simple. Can do photos easy enough.

I might get stick for this because ‘decent fans don’t need a drum’ and all that but I feel the atmosphere would’ve been a lot better if we had said drum

Yeah I know mate but just saying if we hypothetically did have it the atmosphere would’ve been even better

I thought we were quite poor to be honest - especially in the 2nd half.
I’ve said it plenty of times but in my opinion the atmosphere is far better with 1,000 - 2,000 fans.

Poor steward. £9 an hour can’t prepare you for this

Would love to see them as I was in the home end. My Southampton mates said it was the best away support the have seen in years.

Why can't we just cheer that we've scored without running into empty space to give the wanker sign? Embarrassing and most would only run back if challenged. Big followings always attract bellends.

It’s only acceptable if you’re holding a SISU Out banner. Can’t beat a Saturday afternoon charging across empty rows of seats with your arms out wide like Bill Bright

Apparently we’re only allowed to take the drum to two more away games as a lot refused to let lyndon take it in.

It possibly was, but just judging it by our own standards I guess, and it has been better this season. TBH it seems most weeks I hear home supporters declare that we're the best away fans they've seen all season.

I was in the home end as well and I thought it was very loud, full range of songs,as opposed the Saints marching in being their only effort.We also had a drink in a pub near the ground,when the police came in and asked us to leave as it was home fans only.The bar staff were more than happy for us to stay,the manager even had a word with the police but they were adamant because they had intelligence there could be trouble, so we ended up in Wetherspoons.

My mate was. Apparently before kick off he went to their fans slapping himself in the face offering them out for a fight

He was all over the place, I was at the opposite side to that photo but he was near me at one point getting all the fat chants from Southampton fans, get your tits out etc. Headphones in, dancing and sweating, making gun fingers at them

Tbf to the lad he's a few sandwiches short of a picnic, but he loves the club and often travels. He's his own worst enemy most of the time.

Part of the fun isn't it? Bit of banter with away/home fans. 99% of the time it is just that and not violent.

Celebrating by winding up opposition fans?

Why would it make us look like that when every (yes every) club do it. Maybe we shouldn't sing songs about opposition either then.
