Fair enough. If that's his biggest mistake so far and he's changed plans based on feedback, I'm not worried but I hear you.
I get it's a business and it needs to make money, I am all for that but don't push away the next generation. I also get it's about cutting down on people taking the piss with kids tickets but there were other ways to go about it.
How could that be construed as 'racial'?I noticed some Asian people, not meaning to sound racial and I apologise if I do, that were obviously Muslim, by the ladies dress code. Never seen ladies wearing head scarves etc there before.
It’s great to see IMO. It is, and should be a game for all to enjoy.
Let’s not berate someone being cautious about referring to the race and religion of our fellow fans - there’s plenty of people amongst our fanbase and beyond who aren’t careful enough!How could that be construed as 'racial'?
Why are you tiptoeing around an observation?
I'm not 'berating' him - I was asking a genuine question.Let’s not berate someone being cautious about referring to the race and religion of our fellow fans - there’s plenty of people amongst our fanbase and beyond who aren’t careful enough!
There are some proper weirds in Warks though.The potential has always been there. Its a big city with one club and also has most of Warwickshire as a catchment area... the problem has always been that for God knows how long it was a club spiralling down and down. This growth is great to see and honestly if we got to the Prem i wouldn't be surprised if demand was there for a few thousand more seats.
Oh there's defo Villa fans in Warks, thats normal though, Villas pull is spread further across the midlands than the other midlands clubs.There are some proper weirds in Warks though.
A friend of mine who was born and bred in Leam professes to be a Villa fan.
Fckn eejit.
OK, he splits his time between Greece and Somerset nowadays, but still, no excuse for it.
Mind you, I know a few other CCFC fans here in Leics, and I bet they get similar reactions from the six-fingered mules
I live in Leicestershire (just - Burbage) and I would say that Coventry tops outnumber Leicester tops nowI don’t live in Coventry and haven’t for a long time. I went to the Memorial Park with kids and grandkids recently. I was amazed at how many kids were wearing City tops. It’s something to be proud of, how far this club has come. Looking forward to seeing even more shirts this year!
Haven't noticed that tbf. There's a young lad down the road that almost seems to live in Sky Blue though, but I still see more Leicester tops. (Hollycroft).I live in Leicestershire (just - Burbage) and I would say that Coventry tops outnumber Leicester tops now

Stratford seems to have a surprisingly large number of Villa fans.Oh there's defo Villa fans in Warks, thats normal though, Villas pull is spread further across the midlands than the other midlands clubs.
That brought a tear to my eye. Lovely.My lad was born here in Spain but is 100% City despite the Spanish side of the family being from Madrid. Two years ago we came over with two of his mates to watch a game and this last season there were five of them.
We're just planning something now for the new season and there are at least twelve lads wanting to come over. We were at the last home game of the season and a couple of them were literally in tears when they heard the crowd sing "We'll live and die..." They said that they've never experienced anything quite like it.
They all bought the shirts and wear them proudly over here. When you see the sheer enthusiasm of these kids and how it piques the interest of their mates despite the fact that they're spanish, it doesn't surprise me how this is snowballing locally.
I grew up in Kenilworth and it was always mainly Cov but defo still a Villa presence, as well as your usual glory supporters you get everywhere.Stratford seems to have a surprisingly large number of Villa fans.
I've lived in the Rugby area for he last 18 years and it's pretty much all Coventry City tbh, see loads of young kids in Cov shirts.
