COVENTRY City will play their final three League One matches of the season at the Ricoh Arena.

The news was confirmed this morning, just over 30 hours before tomorrow's match against leaders Doncaster Rovers kicks off, in a stark statement.

"Paul Appleton, Joint Administrator for Coventry City FC Ltd and Arena Coventry Ltd are pleased to confirm a deal has been agreed which allows the Club to play the final three home fixtures of the season at the Ricoh Arena."

Surprised? Im not! Just another SISU tactic to make us think they've been working hard behind close doors (litterally 'closed' in the case of the Ricoh) to ensure this was what was going to happen....... Even though ACL have never stated we couldn't finish our season there!

Tactics by who? ACL only agreed to start talking about it at 3pm yesterday.

I don't think there were any tactics by either side. It was always going to happen, but they had to wait for the court case and yesterday was the first opportunity they all had to properly talk about it, and that's what they did. I'd rather they'd done it sooner, but there were no tactics at work here. The conspiracy just doesn't run that deep.

Wonder how many people will actually turn up? I'm ball and chained by my season ticket, but I can sense a good few saying fuck it and not bothering.

Is that right ?
With SISU in charge ACL say you can play here for an absolute fortune for ever. Big deal.
With the administrator in charge ACL drag their feet on a decision whilst saying you can play here. But behind the scenes saying "but only we can charge you". Big deal.

The common denominator here is ACL. Still trying to make as much money out of CCFC as possible regardless that they can afford it or not.
Blind to the fact that a successful club is best for all parties.

We need someone to buy us and get this stadium off them as priority or we will never have a viable business.

Know the feeling. I'm pi££ed off with all of this and we need to make a stand.

See you in the Tesco stand bar tomorrow as usual. Looking forward to it.

"we hope that we can continue a constructive dialogue with ACL with the aim of securing a sustainable future for the club at the Ricoh Arena." :facepalm:

There's no more of a chance that the 10,000 faithful can pitch in and pay enough to keep the business viable than there is a chance that a mystery Sugar Daddy will throw his wealth at the club for no gain or thanks. I'd rather be a tenant at an otherwise managed stadium where they worry about balancing the books and keeping the income stream coming.
