Coventry City to play home games at Ricoh Arena for free next season

Stadium owners announce that Coventry City will be allowed to play their home games at the Ricoh Arena for free next season.

Coventry City have been given the green light to play all their home games at the Ricoh Arena next season free of charge.

There had been doubts over whether the League One outfit, who fell into administration last season, would be able to remain at the stadium due to unpaid rent of £1.3m to Arena Coventry Limited.

Despite the financial issues, a statement released via Sky Sports News said: "To enable the football club to fulfil its commitments under Football League regulations, and to provide stability whilst Coventry City Football Club remain in administration, ACL had allowed the club to play its home games free from any rental fee."

The Sky Blues finished 15th in the league table last season.
