Coventry City Away

[Tin Soldier]

The Mags coming too ?

The Mags coming too ?

Don't they always?

 

[Boinger]

West Brom isn’t in Birmingham and we are quite friendly with them. @Boinger

Why anyone would think that clubs in the midlands would "team up" for a football scrap.

If there is any trouble it will be the clubs involved.. Cov & Yourselves. Although Vile are at home to Sheff Utd the same day so could be lively round New Street.
We're at home to those nasty bastards .. Wigan.

I’m fancying it like. Train to New Street nice and early. Few pints in city centre then walk to the ground.

My daughter is mascot for this one

Growing up in Cov makes you remember the good results! The fact there aren't many helps too.

Where abouts mate? I’m from Consett originally but been just down the road from you in Nuneaton for 7 years now.

This plenty pubs in digbeth that are away fan friendly then 20 min walk or 5 mins on bus

Any young ones thinking this is a walk in the park football or otherwise is misguided by this comment. Birmingham’s ground is at the arse end of nowhere and there’s no easy escape if you get caught. They bray people without thought and that’s the Birmingham fans. So you can be quite sure that Villa and probably West Brom will be kicking about too. Let alone Coventry (who we’re meant to be playing) will be all over it. My advice is keep ya head down and go with an escort.

Might get bother from Sheff Utd at the station but that will be it.

The only bother with with Sheff Utd fans will be over the demand for cheap rail tickets, as neither us or them know whether we are playing on that day.
as the Villa and West Brom fans have indicated this is a complete bollox of a thread

Some villa lads are coming for a pint before the game, got no worries about them trust me
Going to be a delightful day out all round got a fair few lads from down here that are coming out for a few pints before and after the game too

That's good to know. Coventry were proper snidey down their ground last year and acted up inside and outside the ground up here, so I'm expecting them to have a welcoming committee of sorts. I'm also expecting I'll bump into the lad who I put on his arse under the North Stand.

The Cadbury Athletic lads have indicated they want to take us up the Bourneville Boulevard. I heard they're a tasty mob.

The " Cads Lads" wont be in Brum that Saturday...theyr'e away to Rowntrees Rovers....

I now live in Barby, beside Rugby for past 5 years, go to Covs academy every odd Friday to play walking football

 

[Sallycinamon]

Blues fans are much more likely to be on the lookout for Coventry fans as there's long-running hatred between the two clubs, plus you've got the added factor of them sharing the ground.

Be interesting if Coventry win their replay tonight and play Birmingham ‘at home’ in the next round. Birmingham fans in the away end at their own ground!

Sounds good how much do they cost ?

And hopefully get charged a premium to the rest of the ground like they did to us for the alleged superior facilities

considerably less than a Mondeo

Coundon, pretty close to city centre but grew up in Tile Hill. Grandparents moved down here in the early thirties for work.

 

[rubberface]

Exaggerated OP, but I’ve seen plenty of nasty stuff at Birmingham over the years. Coventry, Villa and WBA nowt really.

WBA cracking day out. The Vine is lush.
