Now, I wonder what happens to the proposed new stadium? Coventry isn't big enough for two football stadiums.

CCFC are being kicked out of the CBS Arena. Something feels a bit underhanded about the situation: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63858805

CCFC negotiated a very good deal whilst Wasps were distressed. Ashley isn't prepared to honour that deal. He's the owner, his call.
This highlights the problems of not owning your own stadium. - And CCFC have been all hot air about building a stadium that they would own.

I'm not a footie fan, but many of my contacts are. One remarked yesterday, "Five years will soon pass!"
To my mind, this is yet another sticking plaster.

Not a manager, but a head coach. I suspect that there will be problems ahead
