Coventry City can confirm that the planned English Football League EGM and vote regarding the Club’s place in the EFL has now been cancelled.
This is because the Club has met the EFL’s criteria regarding ensuring a venue for matches next season and the ability to fulfil fixtures, by now having a groundshare venue and agreement in place.
This groundshare is in place to make sure the Club has somewhere to play in the scenario of a deal to play at the Ricoh Arena not being agreed.
We can confirm that talks with the aim to achieve a deal to play at the Ricoh Arena are continuing between Coventry City Football Club, its owners SISU and Wasps Holdings Limited.
Our focus and desire is to agree a deal at the Ricoh Arena - this is everyone's preferred option, and the right option for Coventry City. While the backup of a groundshare exists to ensure the future of the Football Club continues, another groundshare is not something anyone wants to happen.
Details of the agreed groundshare and of our ongoing discussions with Wasps Holdings Limited remain confidential, due to mutually signed confidentiality agreements.
We understand the frustration that fans are feeling, and have expressed to us, at not knowing where their Club will be playing next season, not being able to plan for next season and supporting Mark Robins and the team, and the time that this is taking.
We will provide a further update to supporters as soon as we are able to. |

Sisu have already lodged their appeal to the European Court so they will continue to hear the case, even if it extends beyond the transition period. The case will be judged on the law as it was at the time the events took place.

Hi Slim, thanks for remembering him. I have fond memories of Ron Wylie from his City days. He always took time to meet the travelling fans for a chat. He was a lovely man, one of the game's good guys.
Ron will be sadly missed. A true gentleman and well respected in the game.

RIP Ron Wylie.

There was quite a lot filmed inside Highfield Road Stadium. Interesting for any one wanting to see a bit of nostalgia. I believe you watch it on UKtvplay. |

The council will not do a deal with SISU
Given that WASPS may well go bust now they will not be getting a lot of the money they were expecting from Sky, we may well be seeing the unstoppable force meeting the immovable object. |
