FOOTBALL - Coventry City to hold live fans forum with owner Doug King tonight

Aaron Sutcliffe 11th Nov, 2024   0

COVENTRY City are holding a fans forum with owner and chairman Doug King tonight, live on BBC CWR, following the sacking of former boss Mark Robins.

The forum takes place from 6pm to 7pm tonight with Sky Blues supporters able to listen live on BBC CWR, BBC Sounds and BBC Sport Online.

BBC CWR’s Rob Gurney, Clive Eakin and Lorna Bailey will host the forum, joined by representatives from supporter groups which make up Coventry City’s supporter forum and also regular contributors to BBC CWR sport programmes.

Supporters present at the forum can ask any questions regarding the managerial situation at the club directly to Sky Blues owner King.

Supporters not in attendance can also ask questions and comment via email at: [email protected] or by text to: 81333 messages must start with the letters ‘CWR’.

Coventry placed Rhys Carr in charge of the club on an interim basis following Robins’ dismissal as City produced a second-half comeback to draw 2-2 with league leaders Sunderland last weekend.




The decision to relieve Robins of his managerial duties, who guided the club to two promotions, a play-off final and FA Cup semi-final during a near eight-year spell with Coventry, sparked a strong reaction from Sky Blues supporters.

BBC CWR will broadcast a reaction programme from 7pm to 8pm following the conclusion of the fans forum.
