How many do Nuneaton get now?................It's laughable and such a shame for the business' of Cov. If this was at the Ricoh there would more likely be 600 from Rotherham and 10000 from Cov. The pubs and clubs around the area would make a few quid, food outlets and taxi's would prosper. The casino would be fairly busy and people would buy petrol and stuff from Newsagents etc etc. More programmes printed and sold and more trade in the club shop.

But SISU want as much income as they can get from people coming to the Ricoh. Sod all the surrounding businesses.
Oh hold on. If they cant get it lets move to Northampton so no one will get it.
Cutting off their nose to spite their face.

This could be the first under a 1000 crowd at a cov city game. What a state we are in, watched WBA v Villa last night.... It made me feel quite sad that we are not even close to that now, and we should be PUSB

In an ideal world, the club would profit handsomely from the footfall it creates as well as creating good spin off business for the surrounding area, generating jobs and income for many. But we don't have that, in our world this revenue was being creamed off allegedly by SISU { Debt Interest, Management charges}, ACL {management fees and previous contract arrangements}, Compass and associates in fulfilling those fairly lucrative contracts and other finger in pie sharks along the way. When the club did finally receive its cut of revenue it was spunked away on piss poor managers and even worse overpaid players like Bell, Kyle, McIndoe etc

Whatever it is, it will probably be the lowest ever crowd for CCFC.

Jonathan Moss (West Yorkshire): Took charge of Spurs’ League Cup rout of Aston Villa this season so that should endear him to Sky Blue supporters.
He hasn’t done City too many favours down the years, however, presiding over their 3-2 defeat at Millwall in August 2010, when his decision to red card Carl Baker proved pivotal, and 2-1 reverse at Watford in December 2008 when the Hornets broke the deadlock with a Tommy Smith penalty​

1300 inc 200 Rotherham.

Laughable and criminal in equal measures.

I think you'll find there is no need for a reservation. The percentage drop from those brave hillers is far greater than inside the ground. The novelty clearly has worn off.

Should never be even that high, no idea why anyone would condone what SISU have done.
Im desperate to go to a home game, but will only ever go to my birth city for that.
