[Napper]

08:45 from Lon Euston

So worried about this match but can't wait

Station about 1.5 miles from ground apparently + town not far either

Great - Didn't bother buying tickets as I assumed it would be, that's another two for me then.

 

[ILOVEBHA]

Does anyone know how many away supporters their ground holds?
and how many tickets have we sold so far

 

[Napper]

1300 sold so far, a further 400 being sent to us ( seems starnge if pay on day but this is what I was told by the ticket office).

Ground Holds 23,500 I believe.

I think we'll have a decent following saturday , I'd say 2000 - 2300

Away fans are located on one side of the pitch, in the North Stand. Just over 4,000 away fans can be accommodated on one side of this stand, next to the ACE Resources West Stand. Away fans occupy both the upper and lower tiers of this stand, with tickets to the upper tier normally sold first. In the upper tier there is one supporting pillar which may obstruct your view. Leg room is quite tight in this area and the general facilities are really showing their age.

Highfield road looks bloody good to me.

 

[Eggman]

Game on!!!!!

 

[Scarface]

Another 6 of us going. Last chance to visit Highfield Road isnt it? Might take the camera to record the day!

This is a must win game. Lets hope the players are as up for it as the fans are.

Coventry are letting their STH buy extra tickets at a tenner each to increase the crowd, lets get as many up there as possible.

Plymouth did that too when we went down there, worked pretty well but lets hope there's not a repeat on the pitch too!

It is street parking as the place is surrounded by houses and a few interesting pubs.

It is indeed. Which is why Coventry are moving to a new stadium next season. Highfield Road certainly isn't one of the worst grounds I've ever been to, but it's showing its age now. The place is crumbling.

Some bloody awful huge pillars holding up the roof of the away stand too. They get in the way wherever you're sitting.

We drove past their new ground when we went there a few weeks ago, and that looks impressive. They are still working on it, but I believe it's nearly finished.

I went in a few of them last time, was OK as I was with a couple of lads I know from England that follow Cov, but they had the yoof on the door and they were giving us some stick until my mates pointed out we were with them. Also I seem to remember the place having a lot of grey concrete.
