Looks like they might have found a ground share, though not sure who with. Decision on whether to expel Coventry now postponed until May.

They’re re-negotiating with Wasps for a new deal at the Ricoh for next season (again). Hopefully something positive will come out of that in the next few days, otherwise it is groundshare time. Have heard it might be Birmingham City.

That wouldn’t be great but at least keeps them in the City. Recent rumours are that deal may have been struck with Wasps and that it will be back at the Ricoh, but not sure for how many seasons. I hope it is as I like my overnight trips up to the Ricoh a few times a season. PUSB.

The EU has received an anti-trust complaint from Coventry City about the sale of the Ricoh Arena to Wasps.

Wasps have now withdrawn from the talks with Coventry City staying at the Ricoh because of the legal action.

This is going well. :D

Looks like Coventry have now done a deal with Wasps to ground share at the Ricoh. https://www.ccfc.co.uk/news/2019/may/news-club-statement-regarding-efl-vote-and-stadium-situation/
