Only if they've got no bollocks or mettle.

And the same fans will drift away if we start losing a few.just remember why we've stayed away so far......nothing has changed !!!!!

SonOfSnoz · Aug 18, 2013

That's why our club depends on Finnish/American/Nigerian/Canadian/Portoguese investors.....

I can only speak for myself.
I wont be going its against everything i believe in.

Coventry should be playing in Coventry.

Generations of fans will be lost due to this.

I'll have a lot less sympathy for those that cave than for those that decided to go from day one.

Only those who can't think straight

This. I think what's happened is that over the years the club has driven support down to roughly 7k hardcore support and another 2-5k who go up depending on results. I actually think attendance changes based on form are less likely here than in Coventry because of the inconvenience factor.

I'd imagine those figures this season are: 2k hardcore (will rise to this as people's resolve or the situation changes) 1-2k fluctuation depending on results.

Think you've got it spot on.fishers figure was 3, 000 if we we're struggling if we can keep it below that even if we're doing well then it makes a massive statement. Would they really build a new ground with no fans to put in it...even sisu aren't that stupid.?????

52 years solidly supporting my club. No way I'll be at Sixfields. Went to Crawley. Went to Charity game and looking forward to Shrewsbury.
It is a weird situation, lots of us have spoken of this.
Preston attendance will be lower. They'll bring 500. Colchester after that, the crowd could be below a thousand.
I have no time or respect for anyone going to Sixfields. They've put their personal situation ahead of the long term future of our club.
What Sisu have done is unforgivable.

Only the weak without the stomach for a fight. It's the fans short term pain for long term gain!!! NOPM

Some will because not everyone's boycotting based on shouty guilt-trips and slogans.

Skybluepiglet · Aug 18, 2013

Heres my plan...My lad and I love watching footy .

We love the sky blues.

We agree with the Boycott of sixfields.

We will grab some of the more local "Away" fixtures (Wolves, Peterborough, Notts County etc)

The other weeks we are going to take visits to Burton Albion (A Little nearer to us than shitfields) to get our live game footy fix and have look at LG2 footy.

At least this way the Boycott is intact..should Cov return to Cov....we will be there.

SuperCov · Aug 18, 2013

I'm a 'walk up' fan. The Ricoh and sixfields are of similar distance to me. But I won't be going, despite the way it sounds like we're playing. Which is a shame. It's a matter of principle. We should be playing in Coventry. Period.

Play up Sky Blues

Early days yet and we haven't beaten any team of quality so when we eventually get a tonking from one of them as usual the fans will drift away again.

thaiskyblue · Aug 18, 2013

Never going home ? or away if we are owned by these piss taking crooks.

jesus-wept · Aug 18, 2013

"home" gates won't rise that much the 2224 we had v Bristol I can't see us getting much more than that too be honest. I think we will do well to get a 1000 hardcore then there will be away fans plus those who will go as and when. If Fisher gets an average of 2000 home gates he's done well imo. and I think he knows that deep down.

Can agree with you on this, those who might drift back will get no respect from me.
Am sure those who paid for tickets last week do not want to be there but part of them cannot stop.
Those 4/500 who got free tickets last week should now continue to boycott as its only way we will win this.
