Welcome To The Jungle Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 It depends if people stick to there allocated ticket seats or its just a free for all meaning singers can congregate behind the goal. Unreserved seats defo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading Red UTC Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Singers in the middle of the away fans at the back would help I'm glad this has been brought up. With past big away days singers have gone to the back but sometimes spread out across the blocks. At times different sections singing out of time or singing completely different songs altogether. If the "singers" head to the back as close to the middle block as possible then all songs can start from there and all blocks can join in in unison which will sound so much better. Up the city!

nickolas Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 I thought it was strictly reserved seats - it was last time I went. If not, it should be made very clear as there will be confusion at best and trouble at worst. I don't mind either way, but some will want to stick with their allocated seats. Got mine earlier. I was told reserved seating and no POTD. Although another allocation may be requested soon. My guess is just under 4k of us will be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame, really. A real argument for the introduction of safe-standing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enoch Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Not clear, but OS says up to 6.5k away supporters can be accommodated on the day. Best get a ticket methinks - about 575 left now from 3730 allocation...http://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/article/20141013-coventrytickets-2013459.aspx Not going to know until late on friday if I can go 100%. Fingers crossed its POTD, no reason why it shouldn't be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redarmy987 Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Only thing I can see stopping it being POD is that Birmingham are at home. But is against Bolton so can't see them bringing many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avalonred Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Who the hell are Brissle Skitty? I take it they're the ones that are going to collapse into a team of NLBR quality as soon as CC put the first goal past them?..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Casual Connoisseur Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 We haven't been playing great of late and the last convincing performance was Port Vale away, which should have been many more than 3-0. I've got a horrible feeling that we may just come unstuck on Saturday, especially with the added pressure that our huge away following MAY add.

Whooooossshhhh Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 If Mr Cotterill has his psychology head on, he'll use the numbers in his post warm-up pre-match talk, suggesting that we've made a huge effort, putting the onus on the squad that anything that doesn't match the supporters passion is not acceptable. Come on lads........ do it for us and remember Divvy again. He'd have loved this day out (not that he won't be watching, mind). Not much of an effort for the Rugby Cider'eds mind, as it's only about 14 miles to the ground!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember a similar thing few seasons back at Hillsborough losing 1-0 in the 95th after 12 wins in the trot. Hope I'm wrong but hmmmm.

Well you are a brave man to predict a loss given our record there, but I see where you are coming from, all good things etc, but we are due an away win in the league, 3-1 City.

Alex_BCFC Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Well you are a brave man to predict a loss given our record there, but I see where you are coming from, all good things etc, but we are due an away win in the league, 3-1 City. Our very recent record for Coventry away is: Lost 5-4 last season (although wasn't at Ricoh) Lost 1-0 in 2011. Overall you can't knock 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat overall as a record though. They are doing so badly and we are on such a good run that it could well be a defeat...as has been pointed out, we haven't controlled a game since the Port Vale game and would be good to get back to that.

Dolman Block B Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 3720 allocated, around 260 left. That's amazing. As you can pay on the day its going to be very close to 4000 for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTFiGO!?! Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 They are doing so badly and we are on such a good run that it could well be a defeat...Seen this said elsewhere. Please, re-read it an explain the rationale. I know we have suffered, friends, and I know 'it's a funny old game', but this quirky self-doubt is both overly-conservative an a tad worrying. Just as well Cotterill and the troops don't share the same esteem issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex_BCFC Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Seen this said elsewhere. Please, re-read it an explain the rationale. As you say football is a funny old game and strange things can happen... I'm sure you don't need reminding that many times a top team has lost to one near the bottom etc. Leyton Orient away last season a recent example for us. My other point was that we haven't actually controlled a game since Port Vale away. Continue like that, ie be in tight games, and eventually it will go the other way.

Fair point on the other side of it, but we're x amount of games unbeaten WITHOUT controlling games, which suggests to me that the controlling of games is not the be all an end all. Another reality we have to accept is, at some point we will lose There's nothing to suggest that that will happen on Saturday to me (more than any other game) other than the law of average.

As you can pay on the day its going to be very close to 4000 for sure I wouldn't go buy the website, I had a look earlier and it said 260 left, but there is over 500 available seats to choose from.
