According to the Coventry Observer's Les Reid, new Coventry City MD Chris Anderson has said that there is a site in Coventry for a new stadium.
Business confidentuality means that the American, who replaced Steve Waggott, was not going to state exactly where the new stadium will be but in terms of a stadium that the majority of people in Coventry can get to, this is the best news so far.
Mr Anderson told Les Reid: “Progress has been made on identifying a site in Coventry – which Football League officials have inspected.
“It is not just smoke and mirrors. There is a site.
“It would be irresponsible not to consider all options, staying at the Ricoh or our own stadium.
“We owe it to the club. We are after making the best decisions for the football club.
“People understand we’re under severe financial constraints. We are not competing on a level playing field against other teams in our division and other divisions who do own their own stadium.
“We are fighting with one hand behind our backs and it’s not fair.
“Fairness is a moral concern and there are also severe commercial implications. We are in a bind because of historic events. We need to find a way out of that bind.
“We don’t make announcements and decisions individually. We need to co-operate with everybody in the community – our supporters to come to the games, our partners at the Ricoh to have a viable model, and the support and goodwill of public authorities.
“We are asking for their help.
“We need to earn trust and get that co-operation. We need to repair a relationship.”
