You have to wonder what he thinks he's going to do with that stadium,  now Wasps pipedream is over coventry city are the only concern big enough to really use it weekly and keep it making money aren't they?  Or is this some elaborate 'you can come back and play here but it's at double the rate you payed before' scam?

The stadium has been nothing but trouble for Coventry. I went there to watch Muse play there. I was told that the consortium that built it, including the local council who had a 40% stake, were charging a million and a half rent per season. All the club got in return was money from ticket sales and programs. All car park fees and food and drinks went to the consortium. The club got money from the sale of Highfield road but they were relegated from the Premier league so when it ran out they were screwed.

Badly managed club since Highfield Rd. All Ashley wants is a fast Buck!


Living in Exile since 1980, but still have Black and White blood!
