RICOH ARENA (pictured)
A shiny 21st century stadium with exhibition/conference hall attached. 32000 capacity with seats in the corners and all. Super duper feel and away mob in Jewson south stand behind goal. Can take 3000 and that seems light for blues. Lots to admire otherwise. Unfortunately the club went into decline and their tenancy expired in 2018.
nav - CV6 6GE
160 miles. M6 J2, A4600 or J3, A444 to north east of city outskirts, Foleshill area. Follow signs. Around 160 miles from south coast to Phoenix Way. Parking at remote match-day carpark with walk to stadium - pay there. Lots of traffic goes by ground.
Station is other side of city centre ring road - a good three miles. Ooops!
LAST THERE -
Falmer years: 31/12/11 Ch'ship.
1300 Albion in a crowd of 14k saw a 2-0 routine home win. Yes, it was all bad news that December.
Withdean era: 4/2/06 Ch'ship.
Another defeat in a season when we were relegated.

Withdean era: 2/4/05 Ch'ship.
Our last game at old Highfield Road in the city. And a strange sort of run-in defeat at level2, although we actually stayed up at the death.
