Even cheaper to bike it up, still not too late if anyone wants to join the 'Sent2Coventry' ride. Leaving The The Mem at 6am, if anyone fancies then get in touch. Good luck with that one! We will be on the train with case of Stella in tow, don't worry we will raise a can to you!

According to some on the appreciation page on facebook, 1800 is all we will be allocated. Can't imagine a decision would be made on that now. Other teams have had more, so it'd depend if/when we sold out.

Maybe they've sent us 1800 in advance with patg at the moment, if they go quickly they will make it all ticket and send us the rest of whatever allocation they decide to give us. Doesn't it also depend somewhat on us, we can ask for it to be made all ticket and for a specific allocation if it looks like we're going mob handed i think.

Apparently no pay on the day and only 1800 tickets max - will sell out before priority 2 and general sale. Madness when so many want to go?? Police restriction?

Seems odd as Swinedon got 2200, maybe Police but I don't know why we are considered more of a risk than they are.

We'd pretty much be the only club to go to Coventry in recent years and have that sort of restriction - porkies on Facebook again I reckon.

If there are 3000+ people wanting to go and we've only got 1800 tickets, you can guarantee there will be at least a couple of hundred going in the home end. I just don't understand these situations sometimes, the home team causes themselves trouble more than the fans.

Totally agree with you, the club should be proactive in this as well and liaise with CCFC, although they probably already are. I know when we went to Brum a few years ago and they gave us 1200 with another 1200 on the gate that the club sent message after message to BCFC to advise them, which Birmingham ignored, ended up as chaos.

Yes I remember that. It was like the situation with Port Vale wasn't it? The netting wasn't far enough across the stands so they had to move it further and further as more gasheads piled in.

Yeah, a lot worse though, they gave us space for 3,000 and about 5,000 turned up, and similar to Port Vale the official away attendance was grossly under reported because they had not printed enough tickets so had to open cash turnstiles so had no way of recording accurate numbers, also meant they didn't have to declare the income from the cash turnstiles, but I'm sure that didn't cross their minds.....

What am I doing wrong I tried filton abbeywood, Bristol parkway and temple meads and that link doesn't recognise them? Not sure, I've just done it again using temple meads and it worked fine. raileasy.trainsplit.com/fares.aspxWhen you press proceed it doesn't go to the next page it remains on the same page but with the depart station highlighted in red

Don't understand why the club can't say if it's all ticket or not in the first sentence of the ticket info articles. Would save a lot of confusion. I can only assume this one is not all ticket.. Completely agree. A clear statement from the club about the number of tickets that will be made available would be really helpful instead of these chinese whispers about facebook info implying a restricted number and sell-out before general availability. 3 of us going and 2 are BRSC members - do I get 2 tickets on Monday and hope that there are some left for general sale or wait and get 3 later and possibly miss out altogether? Shouldn't be having this dilemma when visiting a stadium the size of the Ricoh Arena! UtG.
