Last updated : 04 September 2014 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry City defender Jordan Willis has said that it is massive for Coventry City to be back playing in Coventry.

Willis told the Coventry Telegraph's Andy Turner: "It is massive for us to be back playing in our home town again.

"We have seen the queues of people trying to get tickets and I've had people messaging me on Twitter asking for tickets and stuff and hopefully, we can get a win for the fans"

When asked if going back to the Ricoh Arena means more to the home grown players, Willis replied: "I think it does because growing up around Cov you know how much it means to everyone.

"We can see the excitement in and around the town and to be back at the Ricoh Arena means a lot to me and my family.

"It did feel a bit strange at Sixfields and not where you want to play your home games, having to travel that far and not getting your full support.

"We understand why the fans would not travel to Northampton but to be back at the Ricoh Arena now is brilliant and hopefully, we can get their full support."
