Has Cov City chief dropped a big hint about a groundshare?
'Marginally outside'
What a mess this is becoming

We were hardly likely to groundshare inside the radius.
I think realistically we all knew that was going to be an option, given the EFL were lenient last time and allowed us to go to Sixfields, if the current impasse continues then it maybe the only option available.
Interesting that a lot of the teams have said that there has been no contact, Cov Live are only awaiting responses from Villa, Blues and Bedworth - according to the article.

Boddy said this a few days ago. Not sure why CovLive have posted it today - must be desperately short of stories (as always).
So annoying how the hell can coventry be in the position to move out of coventry again?? Just insane
Or because people were talking about the council
If we aren't going to play at the ricoh, it's obvious there will be a ground share

Don’t like how ground share seems to have become Plan A.
Suggests that Westminster meeting went even worse than we thought.

Didn't Boddy originally say the EFL had written to the club to say we must play within six miles from the City centre?
In the new article he says "I believe that the EFL have said we have to be within six miles"

Wasn’t this said by City don’t think EFL ever confirmed this, amazing how this 6 miles was quoted and I’m sure I read Nuneaton’s ground is 6.8 miles outside, very convenient.
Surely only realistic sites are groundshare with Birmingham or Walsall ? Nuneaton would be a joke
People frothing on facebook. Saying they will only get STs if at the Ricoh.
It's only right that the club are looking at a contingency plan. Ricoh will still be plan A, but if its "get kicked out of the football league" or "temporary ground share outside the city" then I know which option I would prefer.

I remember Boddy telling Clive Eakin that he had a letter from the EFL stating the 6 mile rule.

how should I know how long, as long as its temporary with viable timescales, then that's better than be expelled from the football league. Would you rather we went out of existence?
Personally I am confident a deal will be reached to stay at the Ricoh.

It'll be Solihull moors. I would've thought they'd have started on ground improvements as they're looking like coming into the efl
I honestly think some fans would rather us get expelled from the football league.

I just thought everybody knew about a ground share if we cant get a deal at the ricoh?

I think it's a fair question to ask our owners how they intend to ensure our continued existence, should we move again.
I think a lot more would get ST even if at Walsall, Birmingham or Northampton again than last times the people I’ve spoken to say they’ll renew no matter what which based on Sixfields is tenfold to that time!
Come on Stu you’d get to support AFC Coventry Wasps in their black and gold kit at the Ricoh and you’d get free entry to all wasps games included!
(The worry is I think there is % that’d be delighted with this!)
I didn't go the sixfields out of principle, however i would probably continue to have a ST if we were forced to ground groundshare this time.

I wouldn’t get a season ticket if we moved out of coventry. It’s awful we are here again what a farce
