According to a Coventry Telegraph poll, 66.2% of those who responded felt that the Ricoh Arena has been good for the City Of Coventry.
The Ricoh Arena opened in August 2005 and has staged concerts, international football matches and rugby matches as well as being an London 2012 Olympic venue and Rugby World Cup venue.
Although it has not made the massive profits some were expecting, it has certainly lifted the profile of the city and provided a venue that previously did not exist.
However, whether it has been good for its main tenants - Coventry City Football Club is a different matter entirely.
