That was moved to Leamington's ground. "Club officials have been informed that they have to return their keys, their access cards. They've also been given what's been called a reasonable amount of time to remove property owned by the Sky Blues." | | | |

Coventry away on 18:53 - Dec 5 with 2045 views | howenjack | Apparently Coventry thought the existing terms of their lease would prevail but Mike Ashley has basically said that that is not the case and that CCFC have not yet signed the new terms of the lease because they are not so favourable to the club . What's that Clash song ?? Should I stay or should I go ? | | | |

Coventry away on 23:19 - Dec 5 with 1926 views | howenjack | A game of brinkmanship methinks. He knows at this late stage CCFC will not want to up sticks therefore the paperwork will be signed but on his terms . I bet the club hierarchy are fuming . | | | |
Coventry away on 23:51 - Dec 5 with 1911 views | KeithHaynes | He’s playing with fire a bit, but he knows it, he has to remember if he wants the stadium to entertain professional football in the future he needs to not breach licenses already signed and in place with the EFL.He’s acting like a dodgy landlord at the moment, but like always he will become the good guy and people will fall for it. He doesn’t have the millions he has by being a fool. As you say brinkmanship. | |

Coventry away on 10:26 - Dec 6 with 1843 views | 3swan | Personally I can't see any way that our game won't go ahead . Ashley did look to be in talks to take over Derby, if he ever has future thoughts of being involved in football, then the FA, Football League, Premier wouldn't look kindly at a man who either forced a postponement or a forced move to another venue. Gut feeling is money games open salvo. | | | |
