The Coventry Telegraph has called for a petition for Coventry City owners SISU to put the club on the market.
The petition comes after the local tabloid was banned from press conferences, and over 13,000 people have already signed.
The Sky Blues, a top-tier club in the second half of last century, have endured a torrid run in the nine years under their current owners, and now sit at the bottom of League One with fans fearing another relegation on the horizon.
Coventry City manager Tony Mowbray has spoken out about the rift between the club, and the Coventry Telegraph.
“They have made a decision and I, as the football manager, adhere to that decision and yet, on a personal level with those two guys (Andy Turner and Alan Poole, Telegraph reporters) I don’t have any real quarrel. They do their job, I do mine.”
“The newspaper ownership, I suppose, took a decision that that’s the route they are going to go down and at this moment we are all just facing the consequences of that.”
It has been revealed that the club’s ownership have proposed to sell the club’s Ryton training ground for housing developments, and while they have claimed the sale will only go through after they find a new base, the club’s fans are understandably worried about the direction the club is taking.
