Reserves back at Nuneaton

Last updated : 08 August 2004 By Covsupport
Coventry City will again be playing reserve team matches at Nuneaton Borough this season. Announced via the programme rather than the normal means, City have said that home matches against Crystal Palace,Tottenham.Charlton,
Southampton,Portsmouth,Leicester,Ipswich,Chelsea,Arsenal, Fulham and West Ham will take place at Manor Park.

The Conference Division North club stand to benefit by the tune of £3,000 for every game held.

The move might be welcomed by City and Nuneaton but it is not greeted with the same joy by City supporters who refused to travel up the A444.

Attendances for the games played at Nuneaton averaged around 100 and attempts to bus supporters in failed miserably.
