Coventry tickets?

They're supposed to go on sale tomorrow at 10am, but I haven't seen any prices or info anywhere.

What's crack like?

It’s a highly addictive drug mate.

The game is an A Category and the home prices are -
Adults - £33
Concessions - £28
Under 18s - £20

So I would assume that our prices will be the same, unless the clubs have come to some reciprocal agreement to reduce them.

Not one for taking the family to then.

Ticket website is showing the game now, but says "Unavailable" next to it. Usual lack of clarity

Correct prices also £28 for 18 to 21 yr olds

Is coventry's stadium the coldest stadium ever? Every time I have visited, it sticks in my mind that it has always been bitterly cold and felt colder in the stadium than outside of it.

Don't know why I have attached this memory of this place but for that reason, unless we play them in a heatwave, I'm out ha ha ha

Of all the "newer" grounds the Ricoh is one of the worst I've been to. Maybe because it's always half empty, but I'd absolutely hate it if we moved to a ground like that.

You’re not the only one to think that.

We still refer to coldness of matchdays based on “The Coventry Game”

Have Coventry only give us only 1500 tickets for this game out of a stadium that holds 30k plus

If we sell out quickly enough we’ll no doubt be able to get more. Sheffield United took 4,275 last season.

These are the prices Coventry are charging the Middlesbrough fan's for their game before ours

Just had a quick look and it shows in block8 for example “AV8V13” & 14…………. Wonder if that means row V seats 13 &14 ie selling right from the back(or at least a long way back!) I’m possibly taking my 80 year old father in law and wouldn’t want to be sat that far back……..

Apparently they only give Middlesbrough in 2,000 total and they were 25 quid each top price, I don't get the 1,500 to us 2,000 to Middlesbrough when the ground holds 32k and they only sell around 15k home tickets and the away section can hold 4,200, no wonder they're skint running a business like that

If we want more I'm sure we could get them.

It does look as though they are towards the rear but I'm fairly sure that you'll be able to move towards the front on the day.

First thing I thought of. I think it preserves some kind of microclimate.

Funkydrummer · Post by **Funkydrummer** » Mon Sep 12, 2022 9:44 pm

As far as I understand it, it's Burnley's call as to the number of tickets allocated to the club,
as any unclaimed seats will have to be paid for out of club funds.

I'm sure if we sell out the current allocation, then a further batch can be requested.
Very much a suck it and see secenario.

Not sure that that arrangement applies in the Championship.

It’s more about realistic sales and planning.

Do they pay for enough police and stewards for 4,000 or 1,500? Number of pies bought in, other refreshments, turnstiles and refreshment kiosk staff etc.

If we sell out early enough we’ll get more.

Middlesbrough have struggled selling out a couple of games this season where last season they easily sold. Stoke, for example, they sold 1,300. They’ve probably taken that into account.

Absolutely agree with this, I've never been so cold in a football ground - not even away at Gillingham in the Waddle days.

Was reported as being 1,500. If they've sold out you'd hope we'll get more as it's a big stadium after all.
