The Sky Blue Trust Reponds to CCFC PDF Print E-mail
Monday, 03 December 2007
  The Sky Blue Trust has today issued the following statement: It is a matter of some regret that Coventry City Football Club has today (3rd December 2007) filed their intent to go into administration within ten days. 

We urge the board of the football club, to work quickly to secure the financial future of Coventry City Football Club, and we will be approaching the board on behalf of supporters to open a dialogue to discuss what ways the Trust can assist them at this time. We are already taking advice from our governing body Supporters Direct about other similar situations, and how we can work alongside the football club during what is a challenging time for all concerned.

 What is important is that CCFC can be kept as a going concern by paying its day to day bills and not forced into liquidation by the administrator. This can only happen by supporters digging deep and putting money into the club.

The Trust urges you to either make direct donations to the Trust or by buying merchandise from the club shop, purchasing tickets, season tickets, going to matches etc. There must now be a concerted effort to ensure that our football club has a future, and that requires all of us to support the efforts of all those concerned. This is not a time for retribution or for blame.

There will be plenty of time for reflection when the hard work is over. We urge all supporters to join the Trust as a sign that all followers of Coventry City FC want to play an active role in the long-term future of our football club. For more information on joining the Sky Blue Trust call 07746143105 or via our website www.skybluetrust.co.uk
