Please see below an open letter to Joy Seppalla which we have issued to her yesterday. It is the first of a series of letters we intend sending to key players in the CCFC ground issue and we intend to issue a similar letter to one of these individuals after each home game as the number of games left to play at the Ricoh reduces.
This is part of our campaign to raise awareness of the situation now rather than waiting until time has run out and we potentially become homeless.
Cheers

COVENTRY CITY FC - COUNTDOWN TO HOMELESSNESS 18 GAMES TO GO
Dear Ms Seppala
Following the match against Exeter City on Saturday, Coventry City now have only 18 League Two matches scheduled to be played at the Ricoh Arena before the end of the current season. As you know, the agreement which allows such games to be played at the Arena expires at the end of the season.Coventry City are therefore just 18 games away from homelessness.
Unless a suitable home ground, which meets all the relevant standards, can be secured before the start of the 2018/19 season, Coventry City may cease to exist.
Please can you tell me what steps you are taking to secure a suitable home ground for Coventry City beyond the end of the current season? As Coventry City supporters are increasingly alarmed about the growing urgency of this matter, please could I have your response before the next home game is played, against Crewe Alexandra on Saturday 30 September 2017?
Yours sincerely
Roger Ellis
