Don't usually post stuff like this, and wouldn't normally judge people for not attending, but really hope people make an effort tomorrow.

We're playing a good side in front of 2500 away fans, so we need some backing, and I think it's far too early to say the season is over.

I know some people cannot afford it, and others have good reasons not to go, but most can afford it and have absolutely bugger all else to do other than wash their hair, mow the lawn or bake a cake. Bollocks to that. Drag your arse up to the Ricoh and get behind the lads tomorrow.

Totally agree. 4000 away fans tomorrow will make it a good atmosphere.

I for one am very excited for tomorrow's match. I will be disappointed if less than 8000 Coventry fans are there.

Yeah, just seen they have sold 3400. Even more reason to make an effort.

Hope your joking - if not check the league table were 6 points from the playoffs!! Its still early days and our form is majorly bad, but we can still do good things this season.

Am now not going.

All down to go until this very minute and I obviously have a season ticket, but my daughter has just been asked at the last moment to sing a solo tomorrow in a show, to fill in for someone who is ill.

Going to be gutted at missing the match, but my little un comes first.

Hope it's a good turnout and Singer's Corner give as good as they get.

Have a sneaky feeling we might win too, so gutted.

My boy won a prize giving him unlimited rides at Warwick mop tomorrow, so I'm doing dad stuff with him - probably mopping up sick, as I think free candy floss and toffee apple are part of the prize. On the down side, he has to have a photo taken with the mayor (whether he wants to or not). I'm going to have to play it sneaky to try and catch the score while the game is on (texts to my friend Tracy at the match methinks!)

Couldn't stomach it. I gave my 2 season tickets to a bloke at work. I hope I haven't upset him. My nephew's birthday that day but the decision to miss a game is easy at the moment. The team needs to start paying the fans back. Pressley would be better on the pitch than some of them. It's his team, his decisions to play formations etc.

I hope we win. Bristol game will be a big test.

I have a mate who is only interested in match days. I find that really difficult I must admit... to support a team with no future, no hope. The Wasps thing has knocked me really badly and I'm finding it really hard to muster any interest! I will try though!

You're not wrong. My Mrs was pushing for Brassica 271 but I held my ground.

I will be there again today as I am at every game home and away, but like the starting thread we all need to get up to Ricoh today and make as much noise as we can or else Bristol will be taking the place over (as we have done at most away games.

Bring anything with you that will raise the volume.

A ST holder for the last 20 years (except Sixfields) isn't going today nor his son, main reasons SISU, got used to not going, bether things to do on a Saturday "when was the last time we saw a good game". Worse still son doesn't want to go. Went with this guy to a lot of away games last season Tranmere, Notts C and Brentford stand out as just dire performances and Crewe result aside was a non league game in terms of skill. These 2 fans aren't lost to the club but not sure they are coming back as regulars soon, depressing - my son also not going today ST holder rather go out with his mates. Expect 6,000 home fans only today.

Disagree I was at highfield road with 10,000 fans always an atmosphere Crawley was dire for atmosphere. Also when we used to play the top of the league 20 years ago most of the casual fans would go expecting a defeat but wanted to be part of a big game, no offense at Bristol but although top of the league are hardly a big attraction so wcasual fans less likely to turn up to an expected defeat

Well, I have made it. Didn't think I would be able to, but in the end I am here bloody early and already in the ground.

Let's hope we all have something to cheer this afternoon other than just a single shot in the 88th minute.

You honestly think that a few nice quiet hours, a comfy chair and copious amounts of beer is going to be more enjoyable than us getting put to the sword?
