“Our overriding aim is the return of Coventry City to the Coventry area within the timescale set out in the Club’s membership agreement.”

If you read the statement above from the football league what does the terms of the agreement mean 'Coventry area' is that within the Coventry boundary?? is anything outside even by a few miles a non-compliance

Second part of the statement below about expulsion from the league- if the football league are thinking about the fans which they keep repeating, why the threat always to the fans come the day of reckoning - if there is a dispute between two parties why is the third party 'the customer' the one that gets the thin end of the wedge -Not getting into the in's and outs of the dispute, but could the football league not have drawn up an agreement that read something like this 'Should the club not comply with this time frame we will take your golden share and give it to someone else as laid down in our agreement before the club moved temporary to Northampton' - an agreement like this would have meant the club would have had to follow through there plans to the letter or face the threat of losing the golden share and having it hand it over to a new party -but instead we have the threat of expulsion? and why are the fans always the losers even at the very end

Should the club not comply with this timeframe, the matter will be considered by The Football League Board at the relevant time with reference to both the permission to relocate and the membership agreement entered into in August 2013. Expulsion from the League would be a realistic outcome at that stage.

I've asked what the definition of the 'Coventry Area' is & they will not say, so it could be almost anything they want.

I asked the question, why the "Coventry area" and not COVENTRY and again, they wouldn't say
