Coventry City Council have issued the following statement saying that Council Leader Ann Lucas wishes to meet Joy Seppala.
The statement reads:“Coun Ann Lucas, leader of Coventry City Council, remains determined to resolve the on-going issues over the Ricoh Arena and Coventry City FC.
“After hearing that Joy Seppala was back in the country earlier this week Coun Lucas wrote to her and again stressed her willingness to meet face to face as soon as possible.
“The letter included Coun Lucas’s contact details. This follows her earlier invitation in July.”
In reply, the Coventry Telegraph quote a representative for Joy Seppala as saying; “As the letter from Councillor Lucas requested a private meeting “away from the glare of the media” she will honour that and respond accordingly rather than publicly.
"And, as ever, if the council has a constructive proposal to make it will receive full and careful consideration from the directors of the club.”
