  1. I live in rugby which is Cov city country.  This lot have been talking about this game for a good 3 weeks already.  It really is their big day out and the hatred they have for us is off the scale.  

    Just please dont lose, i will literally never hear the end of it.  Put it this way, some of these knobs still say 3-1 to me with a demented laugh.  It was 2 years ago nearly !

     

    To make matters worse i moved here into a family that is split leicester/cov!!  So yeah.....dont lose, please.....ill even clap soumare if we win!

    How did you find it?

    It was interesting. For me a "sizing up" exercise as a first timer.   I thought you guys and the trust guy put yourselves across well but i can see what you are up against when the "hosts" dont really know the criteria they are setting for you.  I sensed you have to keep a lid on your frustration at times.  Also surprised at the lack of numbers given everyone has an opinion (whatever that may be).  

    It reminded me a bit of workplace meetings where you are made to feel you have a say and that ideas will be put to management, but you dont actually believe it til you see it. 

    Id go again though.

    Apparently everyone that registered can come. It wasn't a ballot and this was "clearly stated" during the sign up process. I guess everyone just missinterpreted it. :whistle:

    It wasnt clear to me.  But thanks for clarifying. Ill be attending

  4. Maybe controversial and would be unpopular in some quarters ,but id be happy with a "free for all" for away tickets. Fastest finger first .  Season ticket holders and members at the same time. 8 am on a given day.  Yeah sometimes you will miss out, but everyone gets a look in. And if it doesn't sell out, open it up to booking history..

    And maybe it would lead to some "fresher" away ends which is often talked about.

     

    Looking at it logically, and some may disagree, season tickets relate to home games where obviously you are guaranteed a seat.  Why should you then be allowed first dibs at away tickets.  There will be members who attend lots of home games who dont get a sniff of away tickets.

     

    Im speaking as a season ticket holder just for clarity but I've been on both sides of the coin.  

  5. I thought this was going to be about the light show that someone, in their wisdom, decided to do when there was still daylight 😂.  My daughter said its just the floodlights switching on and off......a fair assessment i thought 😂

     

    As for monga....quality.  And i like the fact there are academy lads coming thru 👍

  6. Home....best its been for ages.  Almost full 90 of songs in sk1 and g1, loud goal celebrations and "limbs" as my daughter says, everyone around me getting involved and contributing and WYS sounded best for a while.   Keep it up lads and girls.  Really enjoyed it last night.

     

    Away.....for all their KRO, zulu rep (that i was told about repeatedly at work) and their unbeaten start they were awful.  Nothing from them that I heard. Sheffield weds were 100 times better.

  7. Rail standing in g1 and sk1....its working.   Came away tonight and said that's the best its been for quite a while atmosphere wise. Proper goal celebrations too, rather than a lame cheer weve seen in the past. Enjoyed it.......and i said earlier i hate friday night games 😂

    Is November 22nd seriously our first home game that’s a Saturday 3pm!? Absurd.

    Not sure if its within their remit but this could be a task for this new regulator.  If they truly have the fans interests at heart then they could insist upon a guaranteed amount of 3pm Saturday kick offs.  Not holding out much hope, as always sky money will win out.  

     

    F**#ng hate friday night games

    So you missed the 1-0 win at the Ricoh on the opening day of 2011/12 under Sven when we were so optimistic and thought that Gelson Fernandes was the new Patrick Vieira? A pity - that was a fun day. Sven was sacked a few months later mind…

    Yes missed that one.  Ive missed a couple over the years having moved around for work but i reckon I've seen more than enough to be due a win by now!  😂

    I've watched us at The Valley about five times and never seen us won. My only positive memory of the place is a late equaliser from Les Ferdinand. Weirdly I think Charlton scored twice on every occasion I've seen us play there.

     

    I can't make it tomorrow, so we'll likely win.

    Im like that with cov.  Ive never seen us beat them home or away ever.  And bear in mind this started with the game against them in our first season in the premier league under brian little in 1994.  All draws and losses since!  I couldnt make the game at KP 2 years ago and we won!  Typical !

    Wasnt everything just so much more enjoyable then.  Unimpressive ground, crappy fox leisure kit that chafed your nipples, players that looked like they could have just been pulled out the pub, amateurish low budget promo vids and little to no expectation of ever really achieving anything major (although obviously we didnt know what was to come).  But it was simply much more fun as a match going fan.

    Does anyone get the access blocked message when trying to buy tickets? I am not clicking too fast or using any special software. I am told Jave IS working on my PC. Why is this happening?

    Are you using a vpn?  Ive had this from the city site and also ticketmaster when logged on with my work network (yes yes i know i should be working).  It thinks you are a robot.  Try from a different device.  Failing that i dont know.  Worth a phone call to them 

     

    Edit...just noticed you said you weren't using any special software.  Sorry

    Has this closed now for everyone? I was going to buy a membership to get some but the game's not appearing I don't think anymore...

    I was debating going so i called the ticket office on Monday and asked when tickets were going off sale .  I was told categorically that they were going off sale at 12 noon on Friday!! 

     

    Im not bothered as decided not to go anyway.....mainly because i decided i dont want to spend over 100 quid on these mainly dislikeable prcks.  But its a bit crap i was told one thing and as you say, they are no longer on sale !
