Ashley is a peice of work,but as normal it’s all about the money,he obviously has a cunning plan to maximise his profit.as for the sky blues,there was talk of a ground share at Walsall,how viable that would be I have no idea
Fairly tuned-in Coventry supporting mate of mine is of the view that he's using this as an attempt to reduce their lease and increase the rent as it's on pretty favourable terms to the club under their old deal. Having said that, I think Ashley has sniffed around a few clubs in that part of the country since relinquishing control at Newcastle, so can't help wondering if this is a way for him to force their current owners' arm. Given the stuff I'm aware of about their current owners, SISU, I've got far less sympathy for them than I would have if Ashley was doing this elsewhere.

I don’t think SISU are the owners now..A local business man, Doug King bought the Sky Blues, subject to EFL ratification.
