Blues fail to get a safety certificate for their Kop and Tilton now unable to sit there
wow what's the reduced capacity now?

from wiki - The Kop Stand and the Tilton Road Stand, opened in 1994, form a continuous L-shaped single-tier stand, with seating capacity for nearly 17,000 spectators, round the remaining half of the pitch.
Total is 29k so yes around 12-13k WOW
The ground has been in a mess for a while. I remember Birmingham fans saying that the stadium will never hold 29k again unless serious improvements are made.
Even when we were there, the facilities were dreadful. It flooded most weeks. Toilets far too small. Concourse tiny.
Could there be a genuine possiblity of them playing at the Ricoh?
Some of their fans are certainly suggesting it. Would seem pointless replacing 10/11k at St Andrews with a similar if not smaller number travelling to Coventry?
I have a suggestion - Blues & Wasps swop stadium’s.Could there be a genuine possiblity of them playing at the Ricoh?

Quite a few grounds in the vicinity, if they were willing.At the moment they say it’s only for 2 games - much longer and they might have to look elsewhere

Maybe they'll ask the Vile nicely, pretty sure we know what the answer would be, hahahahahQuite a few grounds in the vicinity, if they were willing.
Walsall?might be cheaper?Hawthorns, Wanderers
If CBS was ours would only be natural to reciprocate, however 3 teams won't fit.
Walsall?might be cheaper?
It's certainly close enough.Isn’t Walsall’s ground smaller than St Andrews even at restricted capacity?

Don't they have to offer a percentage?They sold 2000 to Stoke fans.
I can't see them giving that many away for the next home fixtures.
Been ongoing since December apparently.That's unfortunate that as soon as they can have fans back, they can't have fans back.
Surely should've sorted it though over lockdowns/no fans.
Fair enough. Hadn't thought of thatIsn’t Walsall’s ground smaller than St Andrews even at restricted capacity?
