Nothing surprises me anymore, it appears you can do anything with a football club these days and no-one cares........well, thats not strictly true, the fans care, but they're way down the pecking order these days and most clubs treat them with utter contempt ! Maybe KC is thinking third time lucky !! :roll:

It must be a bargaining tool, although I read somewhere that it's already been discussed by the league and that it would be approved on a short term basis.

Perhaps it will make up for the lack of Ladak rent recently unless he's still been paying it

After a quick google - surely the best option for Coventry is the Butts Park Arena?

Arena seating would soon sort out the lack of a stand on the far side to bring the capacity up to the required level.

Biggest selling-point - it's in Coventry!

I wonder if their current Landlord is a cynical about all this posturing as I am :roll:

It's a ploy, the Ricoh rent at 1.4million is ridiculous, but without cov there it sits empty most of the time costing the owners money. They will come to an agreement at a more sensible rate.

You could have 140 years of no achievement, or twenty years of glorious victories, you decide.

One Dale Roberts.

Turns out maybe not! Coventry's subsidiary company has been placed in administration and rumours they will complete the season away from the Ricoh, probably Walsall!
