ACL: "Like all Sky Blues fans, we want Coventry City Football Club playing in Coventry"
The owners of the Ricoh Arena say they are 'deeply disappointed' by the Football League's decision to approve Coventry City's plan to play home games in Northampton.
ACL was reacting to today's? news that the Sky Blues have confirmed they have agreed to use Northampton Town's Sixfields Stadium for the next three years .
An ACL spokesperson said: "Like all Sky Blues fans, we want Coventry City Football Club playing in Coventry.
"We have repeatedly said that we are happy to discuss terms to allow the Sky Blues to continue playing at the Ricoh Arena ? and have even offered to allow them to play for free while the club remains in administration.
" This offer was made a month ago and we still have not had a response .
"We are therefore deeply disappointed at the Football League?s decision to allow the club to leave the city for three years.
"We understand that they are under considerable pressure to finalise the fixtures before the start of the season and that they are being placed in a very awkward position by both the administrator and the current preferred bidders, Otium Entertainment.
"There is no need to force fans to travel 30 miles to watch a 'home game'.
"The Ricoh Arena is available to them. We want them here. The fans want them here. The only people who want the Sky Blues to leave Coventry are the ones with no connection to this city."
