Coventry City Development Officer Tim Waggott has said that the interest in City coming back to Coventry has been phenomenal.
Mr Waggott told the club website: "The interest and excitement around the club's return to the city has been nothing short of phenomenal.
To have sold all of the general tickets available so far already is testament to the supporters' desire to come and back their team and also to the staff who have worked unbelievably under intense circumstances.
"We know there have been teething problems with the systems but that was only because we wanted to come back to the city as soon as possible and selling 18,000 tickets in just a few days is still a wonderful effort - especially with so much else going on."
"We are also working over the weekend to see if we can open up more seats for sale and we will keep supporters up to date on that. Of course, we want to get as many Coventry City supporters into the stadium as possible because this is going to be a wonderful occasion for the club and the city."
