Just a couple of factual correction for covlegion (as she seems keen on accuracy).
Our ground holds around 7000 not 6000.
Also around 25 years ago we were no different in size to Nuneaton Town, a crowd of 500 was good, in fact many would say we were a smaller team. What has happened to us, has not happened overnight. Hard work, good management and the odd slice of luck here and there, but mainly hard work and good management.

Just in answer to the annoying attendance mocking:
Population of Coventry - 337,400 Population of Burton - 72,299. (Populations maybe outdated. I got them from wiki!)
Obviously we are not going to have as big crowds as you! But we actually get a higher percentage of the population of Burton at our home games than you get at your home games from the population of Cov.
covlegion we are neighbours. I am also from Nuneaton. I hope your 'legion' of fans are not going to traffic up my usual steady drive to Burton.

Yes I remember facing similar kinds of comments from Nuneaton fans mocking me for supporting a small team like Burton in the non league days... Look at the difference now. Shame really..

Some seasons we didn't even get the 'Privelege' of playing Nuneaton. When it was the Southern League Div 1 North it was the mighty Bedworth!

What a poor post. If a rumour was going round that you were a peadophile, no doubt you'll be taking it further too. You cannot make false claims - especially against hedge funds who hate bad press. Observer likes kids?? Yep I'm sponsoring sky blue crew this season. Packets of smarties for best dancer and I'm paying for your ghetto blaster www.youtube.com/embed/y3BSrlCoUXY?autoplay=1&FORM=VIRE8&PC=RIMBINGDLegion tells me you are the one in the crash helmet at the back of the pretend motor bike Could have guessed really Good luck with it all Ten years time and you could be a "big event" at the Ricoh if you all keep practising hard

Will the attendance be over 6,000 on Sunday? That appears to be a Football League record set v Bradford in the play offs. I'm sure I read that seat tickets have now sold out, is that a large percentage of the ground or not? Ground capacity just shy of 7K of which 2K are seats. So between 25% and 30% of the ground are seats. Attendance on Sunday will be about 6K - the game is now all ticket, no pay on the turnstiles on the day option available.

Cool, I am looking forward to the game.
If your manager has any idea then he will target our goalkeeper - you won't believe how bad he is. I've no idea how he played at youth levels never mind senior level.
If we play like we did first 3 games: 1-1 draw
If we play like the last 3 games: 3-1 Burton

I've had to ditch a ruby wedding anniversary meal for the game so fingers crossed it's a good one. If it is around the 6k area the atmosphere will be good. Can honestly see this game going either way!!

Stop off somewhere like Ashby on the way mate. Sure the spoons will be serving and they are used to football fans stopping in
