Club Website Fail In Readership A Sign Of The Times

Last updated : 29 September 2016 By CNS Sport

In response to the statement in the programme for Coventry City's League One game with AFC Wimbledon from "The Board" regarding the club website and it's falling readership, we would like to express the following point to those who penned the article as "The Board".

Whilst, we are fully aware that the club website generates a pay per click income for the club and is part of the Avro Trust debenture, we are also fully aware that readership of websites globally are falling as social media takes over.

The Communications Department at Coventry City have been on the ball with social media over the last few years, thanks to good work from Mark Hornby and the club's excellent Twitter or Facebook output are now the first point of call for the vast majority of supporters, rather than the club website and will continue to be so as social media increases.
