Details: Published: 19 March 2019

On Thursday March 21st a delegation from "The Sky Blue Trust " and other concerned Coventry City fans are heading to London to further raise the profile of the Sky Blues impending homelessness and the devastating impact this will potentially have on, not just Coventry City fans but also the people of Coventry.

As notified previously we will be heading to both SISU HQ and the EFL's London headquarters to deliver a small selection of messages compiled from Sky Blues supporters and the wider football community to convey just what Coventry City means to them and why it is so important that OUR precious football club remains in Coventry .

Before that though we'll be visiting the Ricoh Arena and the Council House in Coventry to deliver the same supporter messages.

We aim to be at the Council House at 8.30am before leaving at 9.00am to travel to the Ricoh.

All parties have been notified of our delegation and our anticipated time of arrival.

Anyone still wishing to join us are welcome to do so.

A Reminder to All Parties - Don't Let Us Down as History Will Judge You!!

Details: Published: 15 March 2019

Following various statements this week it is now clear that nothing is going to change unless ALL parties involved in this saga are prepared to start acting in the best interest of Coventry City Football Club.

We therefore feel strongly that it is time to stop the "blame game" and get on with the business of saving OUR club.

We welcome SISU's willingness to withdraw their legal action although their conditions are far from straightforward.

We don’t believe that a new stadium is either needed or feasible. After six years of rhetoric about such a stadium we remain sceptical and believe that all parties should focus on a return to the Ricoh with CCFC working in partnership with Wasps.

However if that's their intention we would urge SISU to keep their word and to work with the Council and Wasps to bring this to fruition.

We therefore urge SISU to show they mean business by starting the process of withdrawing the legals.

Similarly we urge Wasps to show they mean business by sitting round the table to discuss a short term deal whilst the new proposed stadium is being constructed.

After all what do they have to lose by agreeing a deal in principle conditional upon the legals being dropped.

We also urge Coventry City Council to work with SISU in finding them suitable land, if available, in line with the local plan within Coventry and to assist with the planning process.

We now call for all those involved to cease the stubborn refusal to cooperate and urge all parties to set aside their historic antipathies and work together on a long term solution for the club and its long suffering supporters.

Be that a new stadium or long term deal at the Ricoh the future of this great club is in all of your hands - don't let us down. Work for one common goal in good faith, history will judge you.
