More away games. Went to Crawley, but can't go again until the Port Vale game, 7 weeks between games is a long fucking time!

Few fantasy football teams for a bit of interest and banter with the lads, Soccer Saturday watching my bets fail whilst getting pissed and I'll do a few away games.

Same as the last few years too be fair.

Hey sub, "Golf" must be the only game, that the more you practice, the worse you get!

I've done nothing football wise. Been playing a bit more sport myself. I've looked at fixtures and thought about another match elsewhere but haven't made one yet. Wouldn't rule out an away game but feel very disenfranchised from it all right now.

My mate is a Wrexham fan so I'll be at any local away games they're playing near me. I went to a couple of games last season and really enjoyed it, even managed a trip to Wembley. Plenty of ex-cov players on display and the standard of football is pretty good too.

I live by Fratton Park but the thought of paying £20 for League 2 football puts me off. Thought about taking in a few Saints games but their tickets are £32 - £50 a go so I might give that a miss as well. England games at Wembley and some of our away games will do for some. Will probably end up watching more games on Sky.

Give Gosport Borough a go in the conference south.

When I'm in Coventry I will go and watch one of (in order of preference) Leamington, Coventry Sphinx, Coventry United.

At home will watch Wakefield or Frickley.

This weekend I'm in Cornwall so going to try find a game on locally.

this thread alone should scare the life out of SISU.

Fans watching other teams. In 5 years from now, when the stadium isn't built, how many will "be back"

My missus' family live just outside Wrexham after moving there from Tile Hill a good few years back so I'm beginning to get a bit of a soft spot for Wrexham too. Her cousin and his mate came and crashed at ours last year when they played at Nuneaton (I got in to find a naked Welshman in my bed!!) and a coach load of them went from their village to Wembley so looks like Cov were quite well represented.

Might get to the Nuneaton game myself this year.

Wembley was a really good day, wish we'd have got there in the JPT last season. Less than half the ground was full but the atmosphere was great. Thornton was the stand out player too...

I don't live in Cov but I said I'd take my mate up to Nuneaton for the Wrexham game. There's a fair few games within an hour of me too so that will do for me until we're back in Cov.

I'm watching Diss Town tomorrow again,my third game this season

Diss were title favorites pre season, but an initial 1-1 draw has been followed by two 4-0 losses and we lost in the very first round of the FA cup as well

Its so strange watching a new team, but I am starting to really enjoy Saturdays again, even though they haven't started well. Crowds of between 100-160 means I can walk around the ground with pint in hand, and with great home cooked food all is going well. Its a good cheap day all in all and three of the five family mates I was going to go to Cov games with this season are coming up from Banbury to join me tomorrow

Diss may be quite crap atm, but they really make you feel welcome and i'm looking forward to Saturdays again. Tomorrow a big game against Haverhill Rovers awaits for me.

Think I might give the Sphinx a try on Monday.

At least the Sphinx care about Coventry.

Also they seem to appreciate the additional support their getting

I heard that today as they might be staying at a hotel I work at. They're also playing at Bournemouth next Tuesday or Thursday as well, so I was told today. Must be a couple of friendlies I guess.
