Who cares.

shy_tall_knight · Feb 1, 2015

I do, I live in Coventry do you, I am surrounded by Jonny come lately rugby fans who are taking the pi$$ out of my club, so important to me

torchomatic · Feb 1, 2015

Have all the freebies run out now? Did they say the first four games or something. This could, of course, be the fourth game. I've no idea how many they've played.

I had an argument in the pub the other day with some bloke I'd never met before. He asked me about Rugby and I said I can't get into it, to me it's just a load of blokes lying about on the floor and I find it boring.
His instant response was to go off on one about football and say "at least rugby players don't mince about diving" etc. I didn't even mention football to him once.
Why do rugby fans do this?

Well yeah, but why do they feel the need to mention football, I wasn't wearing anything football related, I didn't mention football once, but as soon as I mentioned I don't like rugby they instantly assume you like football and go off on one. I just find it odd.

stupot07 · Feb 1, 2015

The other side is pretty empty too.

Presumably including all the giveaways and STs? Not to worry, I'm certain that the CT can boast about it being more than yesterday's crowd.

Evo1883 · Feb 1, 2015

Official attendance . 9640

He works for CT, probably being paid overtime to big up wasps.

Lol, the free ticket dish out has dried up so the attendance is down 16000 , the typical cov and warwickshire way lol

Honestly , they have averaged what 5-6k before the move , anybody expecting over 10k regularly was deluded , would never happen

torchomatic · Feb 1, 2015

Few comments on twitter, even one from a City fan, gloating it's more than CCFC got yesterday. Sad.

Brighton Sky Blue · Feb 1, 2015

Last minute try for Cardiff sees the franchisees lose before a grand 9,640.

torchomatic · Feb 1, 2015

A few on here do it for free.

lol, too slow on your edit - but I've done the same in the past so I'll let it slide ;-)

Well yes , but if we were playing top flight football , im sure the comparison would be pointless right

skybluejelly · Feb 1, 2015

There's still plenty of free tickets around .. Just nobody wants them .. I don't think anyone took the ones at work this week and there were 8 of them going free

That is sad. I can sort of understand people going, but what I don't understand is the passion and love (for want of a better word) they have already got for them after 1 month. Bizarre.

Yep, I've just followed you, BTW.

It was 9.6k, I think its basically a nothing competition where the top teams play reserves. Todays game was still one of the freebies game, where they gave approx. 3k tickets to schools and local rugby clubs.

it's cool, like I say I've done the same in the past, called someone out, realised I was being unfair/an ass/or going to cause an unnecessary argument and quickly edited, you just got unlucky. For the record though I don't like Wasps, Wish they weren't here, have no intention of ever going, but I have and perhaps will again defend them against criticism I think is unfair and whatever the moral implications for moving a sports team their actions since being here have been the sort of thing I'd wish we'd be doing, I don't care weather they succeed or fail though, I understand the hope that if they fail we can get the Ricoh that seems so far in the future as to not be worth thinking about.

Macca · Feb 1, 2015

Not really a high profile game. Made me quite nostalgic, looked like a city home match

torchomatic · Feb 1, 2015

Agree, nicely put. No arguing necessary.

Its a cup game though by all accounts , so probably be higher next league game in all fairness

Possibly, today was supposedly the last of the free tickets though. (at least the bunch that was announced after they first moved here)
