Hinckley United interim Chairman Mike Sutton has said that he did contact Tim Fisher about offering the Sky Blues the use of the Greene King stadium if talks with Arena Coventry Limited over the rent fail.
Spekaing to the Hinckley Times, Sutton said: “After hearing about the plight of Coventry City I rang up the club and spoke to the chairman Tim Fisher. He was very grateful for the phone call and the offer of help and said our offer would be seriously considered.
"I also know they are looking at the Rushden and Diamonds Stadium as well so we will just have to see what happens. But the offer is there. We have a lot in common at the moment with our financial problems. It would help out the Sky Blues who are a football club with a fantastic history and it would also give us a massive financial boost.”
Hinckley's Greene King Stadium has a capacity of 4,200, not big enough for the club's 6,100 season ticket holders, plus away supporters who have to be admitted.
Although, the cash strapped Knitters have said they would put in temporary seating, It is doubtful that they would ever get near the sort of capacity that would be benefit to the Sky Blues.
