That was the single best atmosphere ever in that place. The noise was unbelievable all game.

Its taken 18 years but i think now, with Wasps and sisu gone, and a team on the up and people coming back, it finally feels like home no?

Agree with both. Walked in about 2:30 and it was like an away game. People on shoulders, beer everywhere, singing "We won the league at St Andrews", it was raucous.

That Twist & Shout while their player was getting treatment was the best thing I've heard at the CBS. 10 minutes straight, only increased in intensity, at least 80% of the ground joining in. That was the moment I started to believe, we're building something special here.

Best sustained atmosphere of any game I've ever been too.

Very special days - means so much after some of the darker moments over the past 20 years.

The CBS is different class with 30,000. Twist and Shout - no words - epic!!

I've been to around 80 stadiums with Coventry in the past 30 years and can count on one hand anything like what we have currently.

Very few, if any, maintain the noise like we do.

It's not just today, it's been like it for years. Even in League 2, the hardcore in Singers kept it going.

Middlesbrough and Blackpool the best besides us. Swansea very good too.

Even then, not quite the consistency.

The early goal was massive, any doubts the crowd may have had, died. We were never losing after that

The noise in the corner was that loud today I wasn’t even aware other parts of the ground were singing. In the old West End in the 70s you sometimes couldn’t hear your self think but today was the loudest I’ve ever known

I'm just home.

My ears are still ringing.

It was unreal. And our playlist just keeps getting better - but as a special mention lovely to hear the O'Hare and Kelly songs again today.

I was walking across car park A at about 2:05 and I could hear the singing in the concourses from there. Unbelievable noise.

The Twist and Shout part when their player was down was brilliant. Even those in the posh seats were jumping around

Yeah I’m in block 19 and I had to cover my ears at one point it was that loud. Absolutely brilliant noise today felt quite emotional being in that atmosphere

Also, them cutting the sound system out before the game during Take me Home and just letting the crowd sing it was something else

Well, I guess it puts the “never feels like home” soulless bowl” arguments to bed.
