Coventry should easily fill the Rink End on Saturday, they had 7,000 fans at MK Dons last weekend.

Coventry will sell out. They average over 2200 away fans at games and sit 4th in the table of all 72 football league teams.

but spending money in the FA Cup would mean giving money to their owners, which means they might not turn out in big numbers at all. Depends on how they view it... but logically I would say they won't turn up in numbers because of that

They are protesting against the owners and FA Cup gates receipt money goes three ways which suggests the protest will extend for some to cup games, hope not but a few things I've read suggests it will.
