I hope to sort mine in the morning, we are just waiting on one person deciding he said not originally but the price has made him think more.

I can’t load it on my phone and I’m out all day so I cannot get to a laptop.

Are there many left in the middle two blocks (28 and 29)?

I’ve surprised myself this morning as even though I know the answer is bound to be ‘yes’ I’m still worried about missing out on a good seat. To me, that shows wherever we play and however shit the situation is, my support for CCFC overrides it all.

It just doesn't go so many rows back as the Ricoh. Most of the dead centre ones have gone, but I am talking about literally dead centre. Plenty of seats one or two seats to the side of dead centre.

I got row 18. Don't think there is anything at all behind that available.

Just get one - they're cheap] we might come back to The Ricoh anyway, and you'll feel better about yourself as a City fan. Gave me a warm fuzzy glow when I bought it (sad, but true!)

I am very concerned many of you are getting tickets relatively near to me (i.e. the same stand).

Can you desist please.

Does anyone know what happens in regards to choosing seats if we return to the Ricoh?

What is it per month on a £260 season ticket and how many months? For those who have done it already.

This happened at Sixfields. We'd got season tickets for that second season at Sixfields, sub £200, I seem to recall and then we came back to the Ricoh and just reclaimed our Ricoh seats. Had to go into the shop to sort, when it was on the Gallagher.

Ten months.

ours were

£260 for me
£71 for lad (including £25 JSB)

Then they added £4 fee and then £31 something for having it on credit. £33.50 a month from month 2, first payment will include the £31 fee. Should have done this in the past, it was really easy. Will have it on credit from now on.

So probably about 28 a month just for the ST? I dont want to go through the form to find out just yet!

I'm sure I wasn't the only one with a sense of smug satisfaction that I'd saved a few quid when we went back.

Going by the club Twitter, prices paid for Birmingham will be honoured and previous Ricoh ST holders should get dibs on their old seats

Yes, they were last time when we returned for the Gillingham game.

It'll be £26 a month after the first month which will be about £50 with all the charges.

Not going to be getting one. Will go to some Saturday games (if there are any) Didn’t go to six fields but other than that had season ticket for 31 years.

Midweek games would be impossible, Saturdays not as impossible.

Still sore it’s outside Coventry

Yeah, same here, Pete. I know some may see it as an adventure, but for me I am going to hate it. It just won't feel right and night games could be problematic for me too.

I will hate the stadium being 'ours' and hate the atmosphere, which I expect to be very, very poor.

However, once the game kicks off I will only be focusing on the play on the pitch and really, that is the main thing anyway isn't it, the game itself.

I am not looking forwards to the St Andrews day one bit, but hopefully we can have some success on the pitch and that will make it worthwhile for me.

Do we think it is likely that we will still mostly be playing on a Saturday?

Maybe its just a PR thing to try and shift season tickets but this seems an odd thing for the club to have discussed internally if they are off to Brum with no sign of a return.

No idea if I'm unduly trying to put a positive spin on it, but is anyone else really excited at the prospect of things? Of course I'd rather it was in Cov, but this will be good for a season and no rugby ruining the pitch either. Really warming to the idea as a temporary solution and the more we sell the better it will feel.

More importantly I'm so happy as Dad had said he wouldn't go, but I've talked him around and now we're all going again - 3 purchased in Block 33 with extra legroom

Nope. Not happy at all. Not one little bit.

I find it all very saddening.

I am looking forward to it. Going back to the Sixfields situation, The supporters that went seemed to develop a bit of a siege mentality whilst there. I still see a few faces from our time there and always acknowledge people who I recognise from our time there. I know a few on GMK at the time met up and stood as a group too.
Given the choice of no football at all or watching my club at St Andrews makes it a no brainer for me.

IT would be typical of us to win the league when nobody is there to watch it.

What are we expecting from ST sales? Probably 300 sold now and not been on sale 24 hours yet so probably good going. Is 3,000 wildly optimistic?

Yes, but then people like me walked. I can get a return train to Birmingham for £6.50. Might not sound like a lot, but it all adds up.

Then there is the 40 min walk to.the ground form the station (20 mins X 2), so added to the day.

I know that is just me, but I am sure there are others with similar predicaments.

I recall that in the '60s there was a bus strike and the Bees started what they called 'Operation Beeslift' where people driving to Brandon gave lifts to those that normally caught the special buses. Can't something like that be organised on here to help out those with transport problems to St Andrews?
