You'll be pleased to know that me, the Albatross, is staying away from this one.
Last time I went to an away game at Coventry was the winning Ewan Jess goal that was offside, which was equalised by a Kevin Gallen goal that wasn't.
I thought we had got a life saving draw, until I got back on the train home after a few beers to celebrate with a Coventy Pink Late Night final that I realised the goal had been ruled offside on the halfway line, so it wasn't a kick off at all but a free kick.
Bollox, I am definelty staying away form Coventry this time.
Just bring me back a win. [Post edited 16 Jan 2022 20:18]

Yep that's the one and only time i've been there too. And the only time i've been on a supporters coach...which got pelted with rocks, bottles etc when we left which was pretty scary. Not sure what would've happened if we'd won. |  |

Euston will be busy with West ham, Millwall and Fulham also on their travels up north, so get there early for breakfast :) |
Try taking Chiltern Trains from Marylebone that will be a lot cheaper and safer - if a bit slower. |  |

I've booked a 'park on my drive' thing for £6, 5 min walk from the ground apparently. |
Which ground though? |  | | |

I'm going with my dad (Coventry fan) my brother (Spurs fan) & 4 of my cousins (all Coventry fans)
I'm sitting in the home end with all of them.
It'll be great fun if we win. |  | | |

Only been to Coventry twice for two very different experiences.
First was a midweek away when an Impey winner briefly put us top of the league. One of the great away days of the early 90s.
Second was that bast*rd Eoin Jess game that basically relegated us.
Can’t really do aways at the moment with small kids but I’ll be there in spirit! |  | | |

How drunk were you at the game? Did you think the home fans were celebrating a point at the end?
My most shameful ever hooligan incident that day. Some Cov fans jeered at me after the game, so I farted through their open car window.
IIRC, that day was when United let in 6 at Southampton in their grey shirts. We were fifth from bottom when we hit the M40 and in the drop zone by full time. [Post edited 16 Jan 2022 22:21]

Will be my & my Dad going. Will be my first away game since the 0-0 at Forest a few weeks before the first lockdown.
I wasn't originally planning to go - I generally stay away from away trips these days as with having my season ticket I don't like to have every Saturday away from home for football and we are also trying to renovate our house at the moment and football-free weekends are generally for doing bits with that.
But....its a 25-30 minute drive for me and I let my Dad talk me into it so off we go...
I think we'll be the same for Peterborough in the cup if we can get tickets. |  | | |

I think a few of the local businesses open up their land for parking for £5 a time.Especially on the side of the ground towards the M6.That was a few years ago though so it might be slightly more now. | | | |

Three of us going from North London. Last two visits to the Ricoh saw wins with Kyle Walker ripping it up and the team of Lee Camp , Danny Culip and Adam Bolder keeping us up. I was at Highfield Road for the FA Cup time , nil nil , won an epic replay with Stan's last minute free kick. We took thirty coaches up there , they were parked up from the old White City Stadium down to the ground ! Anyone else on here at that game ? | | | |

If we take enough fans, we might be able to create an atmosphere. Not something found too often at the soulless Ricoh Arena (or whatever they call it these days) |  |

Going with one other.
Only been once before, on the supporters coach (the 1-0 in 2006, think Jimmy Smith got the winner).
Does anyone know how difficult it is to get to the ground from the station? Seems like another Reading, which is a shame because other than the ground its a very good awayday on paper. |  | | |

Just booked for me and son. And car parking through the club —Â right by the M6, 15 mins walk from the ground. I've not been to a game there, just a Springsteen show. And it is such a faff to get there from Coventry station. | | | |

Coventry Arena Station looks good...but looking at train times they seem to actively avoid putting trains on before and after the game. I think the one closest to kick off is 13.30, and then the earliest one after is 18.22. A couple trains scheduled during the game too, seems strange that they wouldnt try to put on some trains that coincide with a 3pm kick off.. | | | |
