Wasps have now been suspended from their league for the rest of the season; it leaves Coventry a bit in limbo. Apparently their game tomorrow is ok, but after that they aren’t sure. They’ve taken tickets off sale for their following home game and are looking at venues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls maniac Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 The best thing for them would be a rich benefactor builds them a new stadium that they own properly this time. The move to the Ricoh has been nothing short of catastrophic for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Have heard they will end up playing at Walsall behind closed doors or the mid-week game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly that’s the same for dozens of clubs. Unfortunately minted people only want to buy PL teams. As a kid in the 80s and 90s I never gave a damn about Coventry. These last 15 years or so though has made me think ‘there by the grace of accountants’ Edited October 28, 2022 by Ever the pessimist 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradowl Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Crazy situation again with Coventry, if the owners of the stadium are going bust it could be a good idea for Coventry City council to pick up the stadium on cheap and turn it into a community stadium. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
