When i was growing up my address used to be, Benton green lane, Berkswell, near Coventry, so will we be called near Coventry city fc.
Live in Wyken now mate no way i could afford to live out thereOK, don't rub it in with your fancy address! Binley was OK. The poverty was character building
The vast majority of the people 'that's it, I'm done' will be posting as normal and following the latest fun boardroom japes, it's quite understandable as a reaction as people are justifiably angered by faint hope apparently disappearing.
I don't put too much stock in the RIP stuff, nothing's really changed or been drastic today.
What I mean is that a club on the edge of the city, but just the other side of the administrative boundary, is still considered part of the urban area - much is the same way that Brighton are in the Brighton conurbation but outside the local authority area that covers Brighton itself. So, if the Ricoh was moved 100 yards north I don't think any of us would lose sleep over it not technically being in Coventry, would we?
Clearly, move more that a few miles outside the urban area and I would agree with you entirely.
None of this will happen though!

An article from 2011 with the orange one about OTIUM:
... In his written reply Mr Dulieu’s said: “The group structure was changed to include Otium Entertainment Group Limited in April. OEG was placed into the ownership structure as a result of the fund-raising that took place at the time.
“For the avoidance of doubt, OEG was set-up as a vehicle to allow the ultimate shareholder of Coventry City FC to provide the football club with working capital at a time when such an injection was vital.
“At no time has OEG been viewed as anything other than a vehicle for raising new money for Coventry City. Otium is not a ‘mystery’ company. The ownership structure was disclosed in CCFC’s regular filings to the Football League and the FA in June.
“The directors are the same as those at the ultimate holding company Sky Blue, including the corporate secretary who also acts as secretary to the whole group of companies, including Coventry City Football Club Limited and Coventry City Football Club (Holdings) Limited.”
Fuck Otium I remember the conspiracy theories at the time.
Got any links to those? Genuinely interested.
The club has the buy back deal agree on the stadium not this new company (Otium).I
Yeah read a few of them just now. Lots of wild speculation (of course!) but looks everybody's walked into the trap set, and now we wait for the next move with... interest?
