I registered with Coventry City as i sort of have a Coventry ish postcode, the ground is filling up, around £30 a ticket to sit with the home fans, this stadium is in a bit of dog end of a place but i am generally out of touch with this area as everyone avoids it and so does the new ring roads, however it does have a train station right outside the ground connected to the main Coventry station, this could be really helpful, even though i remember big ish car parks i think parking could be a bit difficult immediately next to the stadium.
Looks like the Forest ticket allocation is generous, pretty much all of one end at least, i'd guess at least 5000 tickets but i get no emails or information from the club and way down the pecking order for anything via our NFFC.
The trains should be running, i'm just surprised there is a 'Coventry Arena' station, 1 stop to the north is Bedworth, then Bermuda and then Nuneaton, parking at 1 of these and it's probably 7 minutes to the stadium, just thinking about boozers really, Nuneaton and Bedworth used to be good for boozers. I'm sure back in the day the train used to go from Leicester and swing round maybe via Nuneaton and then to B'ham New Street and you had to come all the way out again to Coventry, this 'new' line direct from Nuneaton to the Ricoh Arena could be cool.

My team for Sunday as things stand at the moment.
Samba
Gabriel
Worrall
McKenna
Bong
Colback
Yates
Johnson
Mighten
Grabban
Lolley
I would play Bong because he is a natural left back also Cafu unlucky to be left out.
RE: Coventry City - Nottingham Forest - Liars Bar - 31-07-2021
He will put Mbe Soh left back won’t he?........Won’t he?........Please.
RE: Coventry City - Nottingham Forest - SSM - 31-07-2021
I'd rather anyone but Bong at left-back. He is a disaster. Can't remember one player being at fault for so many goals in such a short period of time.
RE: Coventry City - Nottingham Forest - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 31-07-2021
Like I said that is my team not the team CH will pick although he might.

Why? We have a natural left back so why put a right footed CH at left full back?

Touche...
Although i'd much rather see Toby on the pitch than Bong.
Sooner he's gone the calmer I will feel on match days. Hughton seems to trust him, which is outright mental.

Of course I would like to see us sign a new left back.
In the meantime though Soh is not the answer in my opinion and with Blackett injured then Bong a natural left back should play.

I'd use Colback ahead of Bong. I'd use Richardson too. I'd probably even use Mbe Soh.
I can't abide Bong for a second. He is terrible and provided a couple of the worst performances i've ever endured as a fan of Forest. I've seen John Curtis, Gary 'Iron Lung' Holt, Matt Lockwood and many more play for Forest and I prefer all of them over Bong.
Makes it even worse with him being a top earner at he club. Hopefully the days of doing agents favours are over. Bong is symbolic of how that has panned out for us in recent years.
