Agree, I wouldn't have thought they'd have too much trouble selling a full cup allocation, particularly if cheap tickets that should attract a 20k+ attendance. I can remember games back at the Dell with them when there was barely a Coventry fan in the ground! Triggering the memory, brings back 2 home games early 80s with them, both with 10 goals. 5-5 midweek (during the Falklands war - think the Belgrano had just been sunk!) and drubbing them 8-2 soon after. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_lambden Posted 10 January, 2022 Share Posted 10 January, 2022 I think the Northam when given to away fans as a whole holds 5,500 which they will sell easily. £15 for adults, fiver for kids. Pack the place out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tunit Posted 10 January, 2022 Share Posted 10 January, 2022 Coventry have good support. (probably similar to ours in size). If league positions were swapped I'd like to think that we'd sell out 5 thousand at the Ricoh. Although my Cov supporting mate doesn't seem to think they'd sell out 5k. Fingers crossed I dont have to swap seats... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have PTSD from losing 3-2 in 1977. It was my first full season supporting Saints and |I was totally convinced we could not lose at home, just as we could not win away. I was behind the goal in the Milton when some curly headed Coventry striker named Wallace got at least two goals. I left the ground feeling like someone had died, choking back the tears. A feeling not experienced again until we were relegated at SMS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloggy saint Posted 10 January, 2022 Share Posted 10 January, 2022 I've always had a soft spot for Coventry since we always seemed to be fighting relegation alongside them year after year.

I thought the comments were quite reasonable. A bit of mutual respect over the 4-0 and how Southampton fans applauded them at the time. Should be a good tie. I have some friends who are coventry fans and they're all pretty decent footy fans. They were a similar club to saints - the only real difference being that they got their (absolute dogshite) owners and we (thankfully) got Marcus. Could very easily have been reversed!

Good luck, CCFC. I can't imagine anyone but their local rivals (Leicester?) disliking Coventry. They're a good club with a good set of fans and they've always conducted themselves very well through all the bad times they've had. Can anyone make a guess at when tickets are likely to go on general sale? Been quite some time since I got to a cup game! Ipswich at home I think was the last one I personally brought a ticket for and that was under Koeman!!

Katalinic Posted 20 January, 2022 Share Posted 20 January, 2022 From what I can make out season ticket holders aren't guaranteed their normal seat - mine appear to have already gone which is a bit annoying as usually there is a window to reserve them.

alehouseboys Posted 22 January, 2022 Share Posted 22 January, 2022 Next up. Tonight's show should shift a few more tickets - Cov got 4,800 at £10 same price as our ST holders so will have no trouble clearing them, surprised their's were not £15, same as general sale for home supporters.

Saint_clark Posted 23 January, 2022 Share Posted 23 January, 2022 I'll never understand increased prices on the day. It massively reduces the chance of people going "f**k it, why not" on the day when they're paying more than the people sat around them. Says to me the club would rather get a miniscule amount extra in advance and have people not turn up than get a larger crowd in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
