If they put a bus on, can it be the one from the open top bus tour? put that to good use!
(Not the 87 one, not sure that'll get far)

I like that Dean Emerson is an option, whoever is deciding these names knows their stuff

They could use the car park under the ring road next to the SkyDome. The subway for it is right there

Think you'd struggle to get coaches into that car park, the entrance must be too low. Where do the busses to the Ricoh go from now? The Burgess and Pool Meadow presumably. Assume there's none from the station anymore.

Isn't the station only about 10 minutes walk away? That might be the quickest option.

That's a possibility, not sure how low it is as haven't walked through in a while, they currently have the big box vans for the NHS testing, so might be able to get a single tier bus in there?

The trains could be heaving, you have dhillions in the city centre by the wave which will probably be rammed on matchdays as well now. Doubt there's much between the 2 in walking time to the station.

Right next to the SkyDome, there's space for 2 coaches there and I've never seen more than two there (one team bus, one for supporters).

Car Park is 2.4m maximum according to the council website.

The bus lane on the allesley old road is open to everyone currently, could close it and turn it into a pick up/drop off an hour before/after kick off. There's quite a few options available tbf.

Not been on one for a while but they just used to pick up around the back of the Skydome. Opposition coaches used to park on the corner opposite the car park too.

What was George Mason like?
Click to expand...

Never saw him play but his reputation was good. Manchester United wanted to sign him but Coventry persuaded him to stay with them as they would look after him (ha ha ha). A lot of City fans felt he was never replaced until George Curtis came along. Both had the reputation of being no nonsense and carved out of granite.

Nowhere for them to park up, roads narrower than Grendals cock round the back.

There is that car park under the ring road but that's about it

Moat street car park has a height restriction of 2.38m which I do believe is too low to get a coach in as the average height of a coach is around 3.81m.

I apologise for the fucking boring state of this post.

Tough list to only pick 2 from... Something for all ages too.

Dublin should be a shoo in but as there's still so many misconceptions about his departure he'll probably get shafted

Thank God Biamou isn't an option...
