Last updated : 21 March 2017 By CNS Sport

Coventry Rugby Club have said that there are problems to resolve but Coventry City playing at the Butts Park Arena is not an impossibility.

Cov have issued the following statement:

“Following the reports of the mediation process, we at Coventry Rugby Club ( CRL ) are pleased to see some progress in attempt to bring closure to what has been a disruptive period for all parties in this city.

“If we at Coventry Rugby can play some part in resolving these issues we are willing to assist.

“We can confirm preliminary discussions have taken place with both “CCFC” and the EFL on the possibility of the football club playing at BPA as tenants of CRL (Coventry Rugby Limited).

“There are several issues that would have to be resolved but we do not rule out that a solution could be found that satisfies all parties.

“As mentioned above, we are very willing to be involved in the mediation, however with the proviso that nothing negatively impacts on Coventry Rugby Club and its future.”
