Eastwood: It Is In The Owner's Gift To End This Issue

Last updated : 22 February 2019 By CNS Sport

Wasps CEO Nick Eastwood has said that it is the gift of the owners of Coventry City to end this issue of the Sky Blues facing extinction.

Eastwood, who has a legitimate and understandable stance but really needs to keep the people of Coventry onside if the Ricoh Arena is to continue as a viable business, told the Coventry Observer:  “We have been clear and consistent about our message to the owners of Coventry City Football Club.

“When we agreed a one-year extension for them to play at the Ricoh Arena we said we would only open negotiations again once they had permanently halted their legal action.

“We hope they take that course of action as the EFL have also made their position clear. It is in the owners’ gift to resolve this issue for the benefit of all, especially their own supporters.”
