In terms of stadium size required the question is irrelevant until location known ?

On a serious note, I think we need to remember that the % of active city fans is actually quite low so nothing really on here or in polls represents those that go to games specifically. A ST holders poll would be good, but a bit pointless this season.

A ST poll would be interesting, but surely it must include anyone who has been a ST holder at some point under SISU. Why they are no longer ST holders is important.

Another point to consider is what people call floating support. A lot of ST holders who are obviously free every Saturday don't appreciate other people's commitments.

For instance my wife was a season ticket holder for many years, I have never been. That is because over the course of two careers, I have usually had one Saturday off in four. That is why some seasons I have seen us away as much as at home.

The reason for the big game spike, is not always part time fans. It's just for big games people like me can use annual leave to make them. It is not practical to use it for every game.

Remember lots of people don't work Mon-Fri 9-5. It doesn't make them any less passionate or some sort of part-time fan who should be ignored.

Grendell actually makes a good point even though he doesn't know it and his intention is to point score.

The problem SISU would have with any new stadium is not knowing how big it needed to be. Even a 12K stadium could be a morgue like Darlington's with 2K rattling around in it.

Lets just say, we don't need a new one.

They don't care, the profit will be developing the area around it. CCFC is just a means to an end. These guys are not really CCFC supporters, after all they are all Londoners.

Anybody think Tim Fisher is a Coventry City fan ?
