Coventry City

[jerryatricjanner]

Ashley is in talks to buy the stadium and add another hotel and parking which would then put him in a strong position to buy the football club on the cheap.

Coventry are in talks with Walsall over potentially ground-sharing as fears increase over whether they’ll be able to carry on playing at the Coventry Building Society Arena.

Not sure how it will work out for season ticket holders of Coventry, apparently they’ve got 13,000 and Walsalls stadium holds 11,000

Went on Thursday night v Cardiff as I was visiting family. Still at the Ricoh but nobody I spoke to really knew what was going on.

Coventry have agreed a five-year deal with Mike Ashley's Frasers Group to play at the CBS Arena.

The Sky Blues were initially given an eviction notice in December after failing to agree a new lease when Frasers Group bought the stadium in November, following the collapse of Wasps.

The club did strike a deal to be able to play until the end of the season but have now secured a long-term agreement.

Is someone taking a punt on them getting promoted? They are on a decent run of form. You could imagine Ashley sneaking in an “in the event of promotion” clause!

Coventry were absolute top-flight stalwarts when I was a kid, 30+ unbroken years in the top flight I think it was? I wouldn't mind seeing them prosper to be honest.

There seems to be an amazing amount of tolerance shown to Coventry on this one.

They've now had home matches at Highfield Road, Ricoh, Sixfields, St Andrews, Pirelli Stadium and now Banks Stadium.

Is this a record.

Is it a record? In our time of watching football maybe but QPR are well into double figures for number of grounds. I think it is something like 14.

They’ve sold out the ground today, and a crowd of around 30,000 expected. Fans were asking for less segregation for more seats to become available.
Perhaps the landlord is thinking of the income potential in the future if City stay.

Mark Robins will surely be in the running for a Premier League job should Coventry not get promoted?
