4 of us going. Craving city all summer. People who say they have fallen out of love with the club never loved it in the first place.

Not a real fan tbh. You can't just stop following your club. Also, the fact you are probably older than me means you will have followed them for longer but doesn't mean you love them any more than me. I never saw them in the premier league. All I've had is shit and I still follow them all over the country. So don't question my passion for my club.

Good for you FRY. I have so much respect for the young supporter who could so easily support 'bigger' clubs. You are our life blood and I hope most the fans who go to Sixfields are youngsters because the young must be rebellious.
I, personally think Nuneaton is our biggest game of the season because it is our 'real' local derby. I would love them to be promoted and while our club is foundering in the lower leagues nothing would be better for the club than having a local club getting promoted to the football league.
And not going? That is stupid. This is a friendly and nothing to do with Sixfields. Go and support the lads.

It's an away game so we will be there, will probably do a few more pre season ( in UK), even if to work out who everyone is?

Well, at least you were being honest about not understanding it, instead of just not understanding it.

Ahhhh, you are evidently a 40+ bloke who probably shouldn't be trying to troll (poorly) on an Internet forum.

No , it's just a reference to the song they used to sing, sadly I had to sit above the west terrace when it was terracing, but remember hanging over the barrier looking down in awe.
One or two take great offence at the username but I can live with that.

Before the family stand was built the "game" was to keep the west end clear of away supporters and we nearly always achieved this . I remember one Saturday Chelsea were coming and we were waiting for the assault which hadn't come . Quarter of an hour to kick off someone noticed strange faces gathering on the rise to our left on the corner to the sky blue stand . They steamed in and ten minutes later we were listening to cockney voices singing " We took the West End" not much WestEndAgro that day . Happy days , most of them !

I remember that at one point they used half the West End for away supporters. I don't know how long it was for but, I think it was when we became all seated?

When you get older you will realise that there's more to life than blindly following a football team. Particularly one that no longer belongs to the fans. I will reconsider when they come back to Coventry but will not buy a season ticket until SISU have gone.
Good luck to you though.

As i recall of a lot of the support from the bigger clubs used to eventually 'share' the West End sometime during the game!!!

Without invitation!!

but the pen was created on the Spion Kop terrace for away fans before all seats...I would guess around 1976?
