Last updated : 11 March 2014 By Covsupport News Swervice

Coventry City's Mark Laboivitch has rejected an offer made by the Sky Blue Trust to host a Fans Forum regarding the accounts of Sky Blue Sports & Leisure.

Mr Labovitch told Simon Gilbert of the Coventry Telegraph:  “What we want to do is hold a public forum to look at everything, including the accounts if people have questions.

“We don’t need one that is organised by the Sky Blue Trust. I want to invite Martin Reeves (Coventry City Council chief executive) and Ann Lucas (council leader) as well because I want everyone to have their say.

“I want it chaired by someone resolutely independent. It has to be someone whose objectivity is absolutely unimpeachable.

“The Sky Blue Trust has a history of releasing extremely hostile statements about the club’s owners."

The Trust have responded with Jan Mokrzycki saying: “I think he is wrong. We have no particular axe to grind over it – we just want to ask questions, we don’t want to ambush him.

"Some of the numbers in the accounts are quite alarming and the fans deserve some answers.

“Our concern is for the fans and for the team. What is going on between the other parties is between them and will be settled in court.”
