A big one Saturday for a place in the top 6 at Christmas.

Based on the sales, it looks like this will be the lowest Saturday home crowd. Ample tickets left in even the usually sold out blocks like 14/15. £30 and the first of 3 home games in just over a week around Christmas doesn't help.

Stoke have sold 3000 as of last week, so will likely have 4000.

Another big away crowd at £30 will be good for the finances but I'm really hoping our sales pick up.

Prediction: 19,179

Fixture just before Christmas is usual lower than normal but if Stoke shift 4000 then 19000 is about what I think we will get

I’ve noticed that this game will be available on DAZN which means it’s been selected for international broadcast (even if not on Sky) and will therefore be unavailable on iFollow. I could be, and hope I am, wrong but one to keep an eye on for overseas fans.

Hopefully 5k less people standing around by the toilets trying to sling as much beer down them as they can in 15 minutes at half time, just generally getting in the fucking way, happy days!

The fear factor of the new Covid variant will impact all attendances.

Looks like being the lowest home turn out for a good while.

Last weekend before Xmas traditionally sees low attendances. On top of a low overall gate, I can see a lot of season ticket holders giving it a swerve and there will be a lot of empty seats. A bit like Huddersfield yesterday, nothing close to 16K in that ground.

Millwall won't be great either, but Luton should be a very good gate, especially if they bring 4K as I would expect them to.

I think Millwall will be a huge crowd if we get a two good results.

£20 a ticket, Millwall will bring a big following for them

How many of the 23,000 at the last home game seem scared of Covid? Don't think I've seen a single mask at a Cov game this season.

It's the 3pm EFL Offering abroad, guess it's another one I won't see on ifollow.
Can't remember the last ifollow game.
Getting ridiculous now for overseas fans. Pay for the season and only about 60% of games available so far.
Getting good at finding good quality illegal streams (as others have said, just because it's available abroad does not mean the country you are in will show it).
If something is paid for, then you should get it. Allow season ticket ifollow holders to see the games, just don't sell one off's for televised ones. Either that or give credits for the following season's games.
Really not on that i like others have a ifollow season pass and only get audio for about 40% of games so far as some channel in Japan want's to show it.
If DAZN Spain etc, show it then that means i have to pay twice to see the same game, how is that legal?

Read your T&C''s. These exceptions were clearly set out before you signed up for it. You are still getting to watch games (home and away) at a much cheaper rate than those attending the matches so I don't see you have that much to moan about. 5 years ago you wouldn't have been able to watch a single match!

They bought tickets before the new rules, what if their SI yoofs' haven't been vaccinated and hence no passport? Cant see them doing LFT on the morning of.

What are the rules on LFT?
Do they have to be done on the morning, are the results valid for a certain amount of days? Can you do one few days before the match and not leave the house?

My son only only has a single vaccination due to his age not elible for double yet...does he need to prove a negative LFT.

Lateral flow can be done within 48 hours of the pass needed.

It's so easy.

I'm sure the SI youth with their £800 iPhone won't find it difficult to log in a lateral flow result which literally takes 30 seconds.

Think they will easily. They have before, it will appeal to their day trippers and they can pull out a very big following every now and again.

can you see them actually bothering to do a LTF?

Im not even sure how you provide proof? take a photo on your phone? could be weeks old?

Tbh, no. I think that's why so many people caught it at the Euros at Wembley. People were just adding old lateral flow results into the app. There's no way of proving the test has just been done.

I think they'll bring about 2500. NYD is a funny one for away followings. Although most people are off work, loads give it a miss due to a hangover.

I think Millwall will bring a similar number.

You just put the barcode in and tap the result.

Hope to get over 20k especially with a big following and get our average to over 20k. I was at Cheltenham races on Saturday and it said covid pass or negative LFT will be required for entry but nobody checked any of us from the coach so will it be fully enforced for Saturday?

I’m not going…. Having a Xmas family day. I keep meaning to work out how to get these illegal streams. Think it will be a cracking atmosphere… need those 3 points. Performance can come 2nd… all about keeping in touch with the top 6

Quick check now, I actually think this could be a drastically lower crowd Saturday. Possibly as low as 12/13k Coventry fans there.

Singers corner is around half full, whereas previous matches it's been completely sold out the week before.

You could count on two hands the tickets sold in the telegraph.

Yeah it is looking poor at this stage for a Saturday game. however i reckon we will actually sell 13- 14k actual coventry tickets . wether they all turn up will be another matter.

What makes you think a lot of season ticket holders would “give it a swerve”?
I can’t see why the overwhelming majority of us wouldn’t be there.
