Sir Geoff Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 Here's hoping they stay up. Will be on my awayday list for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gasbuster Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 I wouldn't want to be playing them next season, in their first match back at the Ricoh. Likely to be sold out and very intimidating. Could continue if they get a good start to the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen it full or heard them make any noise. Competes with Stadium MK for the worse awayday experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time they returned to the Ricoh, I went, and they had 27,000 in there for a nothing game. Place was rocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just under 4000 I believe but credit it to them they did give it ago. The stadium maybe soulless but the fans aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be naked to the waist on the touchline there, in August. He'll be gagging for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin101 Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-coventry-warwickshire-32516464 Interesting article from a few years back about the move from Highfield Road, which was in Coventry city centre. Makes me so glad, in a way, that Ashton Vale never happened. The redeveloped Ashton Gate - still in the heart of the community - is fantastic.
