Coventry City's Ricoh Arena has been chosen as one of the football venues for the 2012 Olympic Games.
The 33,000-capacity stadium was selected to stage the Midland-based games of the Games after Villa Park was ruled out due to planned building work.

The venue will be renamed the City of Coventry Stadium for the duration of the games with all branding removed.

Lord Coe, chairman of the London 2012 Organising Committee, said: "It is
a great venue and ideally located."

He added: "The City of Coventry Stadium will be an excellent host for football matches for the London 2012 Olympic Games."
