Hi,

I will visit Coventry for the third time this Easter to attend the home game versus Doncaster and the away game at Walsall. Thought this would be a good place to get some insider tips about which places that are worth to go to before the matches? :)

What's the best places to go for some beers before the home games? I'm looking for a place with real cask ales, and have been to Whitefriars a couple of times earlier. Is there any place with more supporters attending?

Is there any special transport for supporters from Coventry to Walsall, or is the best solution to take the train? Is there any pubs in Walsall expected where Coventry supporters are expected to gather before the game? Maybe it is a little bit early for these questions, but I'm trying to do some advanced planning :)

Best regards,

Bjørn, Norway

Not many pubs around Bescot mainly industrial area. I think they have their own bar and one bar is reserved for way away supporters.
