Got two ground share options on the table at the minute.

It wouldn't surprise me. Rov'rum were given massive leeway when their stadium wasn't built in time.I thought the League had told them that they had to play home games within the City of Coventry to stay in the league next season. Have the league backed down on this

I was told that they have looked for grounds within 50 miles of Coventry. Within 6 miles I think they would be limited to Nuneaton and the old Coventry Rugby Club ground (capacity 3,000 with Coventry United already tenants there). Bedworth United's ground is also 3,000 capacity, but with only 300 seats, so probably would not be easy to bring up to minimum standards for the EFL.
The other possibly Birmingham.I think the EFL also has to approve their plans, whichever ground they choose to share, so perhaps not as clear-cut as Coventry are suggesting.
One option is believed to be Burton Albion: 30 miles away, capacity 6,912.
gigg lane might be available.The story I heard was that they were in discussion with Wallsall which has a capacity of 11,300 It's 28 miles from the Ricoh but you have to get through Birmingham which will be a nightmare!
Indeed it will live long in the memory not only for a fantastic result but the fact that I didn’t get back home until 6 in the morning - up all night. One further observation of that eventful night is who the hell buys 6 bags of compost at 2 in the morning !! Someone does, as I witnessed !
Feel sorry for the fans again, fantastic stadium that they think is theirs that’s taken from them
Doesn’t look like we’ll be returning next season but we may have two visits to Burton or Walsall (if they’re not relegated)
