What I know is that there has been on-going work on a new stadium, to identify a site. The mistake that has been made in the past is making people think it is imminent and ready to go. That was unrealistic. We are working hard behind the scenes. ”

Can you guarantee we'll be at Ricoh next season? We need our supporters. This is our stadium, where we sing together. That’s what we need that stadium to be. It has to be in Coventry. Can I reassure supporters what is going to happen? No. But what I intend is this club will play in Coventry...

Great manager and terrific squad' There’s a bad history and nobody can make that go away. It was in trouble before the current owners. Look at what we do, not what people tell you in the pub. We have a great manager, great technical director, a squad that’s terrific that our finances allow. We...

Why Coventry City? Why Coventry? Coventry City FC is one of those great clubs in English football history. A town and a club that’s seen some real highs and lows. It’s a club with huge potential in a great city. What’s not to like about Coventry City? It’s a city that wants to embrace it’s...

We have a modest playing budget, we have to find creative smart ways of spending that money. Mark Venus’s job is working that budget.”

Are you CCFC’s fairy god mother? Most club’s are trying to find that. We are trying to avoid mistakes of the past. Unless we are winning games, there’s nothing to sell, no money to be made for us. Management side of club is really critical. Some clubs have learnt this, others are spending money...

It needs to be a home we can use in a way that helps the football club. Ruling out a deal at the Ricoh would be silly. If Wasps say come here rent free for 10 years, that would be silly. It’s unlikely they would do that, but there are a lot of shared interests with Wasps. Of course we will talk...

’ll explore future at Ricoh Arena. We are still learning the facts and learning the issues. It’s important to understand we need a home, every club needs a home. Supporters want it and the Football League wants us to have a home. Everyone wants us to have a home. Where that will be, I don’t know.”

Coventry City is part of this community. We’re here to entertain. Tony will say football is an entertainment business. We want to bring people to the stadium. Financial problems of the club change as you move up the divisions. Constraints change and we would have to adjust. It’s a dilemma I’d...

No, but making sure club is financially stable is. We need to be prepared and we know better than many what can happen when clubs spend money they don’t have. We have learned our lesson.”

The football side of the club in very good hands, and the appointment of Mark Venus a very good decision. Coventry City is a club that’s had its ups and downs, but right now, is in a very healthy state.

http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/recap-coventry-citys-new-managing-10421383 Really enjoyed first few days, but they’ve been long. I started at 5am today. I’ve been meeting everyone - from the kitman to the owners. You read the paper and know the history of...

Surely that's obvious as a deal for the ground hasn't been announced?

Who's saying that won't be discussed and agreed at the meeting next week? What I really want to know is if he has ze German Accent?

He's talking to Midlands Today....Fair enough. But now Sky Sports, why would they interview the new MD of a league 1 team? What's going down?

Not a great start this.

The thing is though Claudio inherited that team. When he needs to change it up next season it could all be different. The good thing is Top doesn't seem to be a big seller and looks like he's trying to build the club. Lovely bloke by the way.

I looked at your profile pic and got confused about what century it is.

I think getting rid of Pearson was the right thing to do. Timing was perfect. Whoever brought Vardy to the club is very astute too.
