Pressley - There Has To Be A Solution To The Ricoh Problem

Last updated : 22 July 2014 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry City manager Steven Pressley is hoping that a solution can be found to get the Sky Blues back to the Ricoh Arena as soon as possible.

Speaking to BBC Coventry & Warwickshire, Pressley said: “There’s a number of factors, we’re all very much aware of that, both sides have gone through a lot in the last 18 months and I just feel that now is the time.

“I don’t think there will be a better time to find a solution to the problem.

“I think it’s hugely important, I really do. I think that there certainly has to be a solution to the problem.

“If we go another year away from Coventry then you are obviously faced with the prospect of losing another generation of supporters and you just can’t do that at this football club.

“There has to be a solution and there has to be compromise, from both sides, and I certainly hope that can happen because I think from a football perspective it would be a huge lift to us.

“I think, also, it would just re-energise the supporters, bring a real feel good factor back to the city and I think that would bode well for the future - I really hope it happens.

“There’s no doubt about it, for any player coming to Coventry the Ricoh Arena is a big sell and we can’t do that at this moment in time.

“The finances as well. There’s no doubt that the finances of playing your games there would help the club significantly.”
