they don't want anyone with a job there, then? that's a shame.
surely, an hour or 2 before a home game would make more sense.

COVENTRY City have confirmed the date of the unveiling of the new statue to commemorate FA Cup-winning heroes George Curtis and John Sillett.www.coventryobserver.co.uk
presumably because there will be some sort of get together / lunch that wouldn't really be possible on a match day.they don't want anyone with a job there, then? that's a shame.

i'm sure they could squeeze in a few dozen family and friends into the 100s of empty seats up on the balcony.presumably because there will be some sort of get together / lunch that wouldn't really be possible on a match day.
Would think 1000 or so will find the timei'm sure they could squeeze in a few dozen family and friends into the 100s of empty seats up on the balcony.
and as they do food anyway on a match day, i'm sure they could have catered for them as well, even if it was an hour or 2 earlier than usual.
it just seems a shame to not have this available for as many fans as possible.
I was 15 and I’m 53 this year so many will have retired or partially retired possiblyWould think 1000 or so will find the time
Similar, I was 14 and 52 but it's not 'find the time'. I have limited holiday time, and already losing days for Friday at Sheff U the Monday at Hull and others this season. My only other days are a family holiday and Christmas with a spare day hopefully for Sunderland away. A weekend at the end of the season or all summer would've been better.I was 15 and I’m 53 this year so many will have retired or partially retired possibly
Hopefully people will be able who want to
Would have been pretty hard to organise on a match day

That seems a pretty wild comment tbh. Im sure many would love to go but cant due to work/family commitments on a weekday.Would think 1000 or so will find the time
Yep I apologised for saying ‘find the time’ I’m sure many will goThat seems a pretty wild comment tbh. Im sure many would love to go but cant due to work/family commitments on a weekday.
We cant all be as fortunate as you or others.
You coming?Shame they couldn’t do this before the West Bromwich game to be honest. Would seem to be a fitting tribute on the Memorial Day to two legends who are no longer with us.
Trying to get it off work atm. As you say it’s an amazing project and deserves people to come up.You coming?
It’s been a huge amount of work with only very recently getting planning permission from the council
The arena and the club and the committee, especially the committee have worked their socks off and it was just too difficult to do it on a day when other massive events were happening
Joe elliot has been amazing don’t know where he gets the energy from and both families have been so wonderful and are so honoured that supporters and the club got right behind it
I really hope some supporters are able to get up there it would be great for the widows and kids of the great men to see what they and the experience meant to us fans
Unfortunately I can't make it.You coming?

Can we start a campaign for all attendees to carry some Febreze with them thenUnfortunately I can't make it.
I bet the mad hatters will be there at the front of the crowd can't resist a photo shoot.
benefit claimants, nightshift workers and school truants only, i think.Is anyone thinking they’ll come along ??
Easter holiday so parents might be off with kids Maundy Thursday so some people may take the day off before the bank I holiday and retirees may be able to I would have thoughtbenefit claimants, nightshift workers and school truants only, i think.
Or after one, whilst the roads are closed.they don't want anyone with a job there, then? that's a shame.

I curse my shift patterns - One week about - earlies, afternoons and nights.benefit claimants, nightshift workers and school truants only, i think.
See you there then....Taking a half day
Really leaves loads for the imagination. I thought at least a blanket / box over it until we revealReady for unveiling
LolReady for unveiling
Didn't realise we were getting a statue of Tutankhamun and Imhotep.Ready for unveiling
They’ll still be thousands there Friday to see itif this was revealed on friday before the game there would be thousands there.
such a shame.
I'm not so sure - People with work commitments, prioritising a pre match bevy, even travelling still.if this was revealed on friday before the game there would be thousands there.
such a shame.
Expect soI see they are thanking a crane hire company for the unveiling so it looks like there will be a curtain/box over it.
