Geoffrey Robinson has his say Former Coventry City Chairman Geoffrey Robinson has hit out at the current board and urged them to find to find a good home for the club. Speaking to the CT, the MP said: “The football club is a total disaster. “They have made a total mess of it – a disgraceful mess – and they should find a good home for the club as soon as possible, write off their losses – which they are entirely responsible for themselves – and let’s get the club back on the up. “With this ownership and these people, the club has no future. "I have grave concerns about the club because the owners have turned out to be an absolute waste of time and space. “The club and the city deserve better than they have produced. "They gave all sorts of statements about what they intended to do for the club and how they were going to get us back to the Premier League, all the usual stuff, and I believed it. “Of course you can’t, in those circumstances, get a written undertaking because you can’t do anything if it doesn’t come off. “But I am bitterly disappointed, as disappointed as any man possibly could be.” Mr Robinson aso admitted that if things were left up to him that he would not have handed the club to SISU and said: “We had a very good alternative buyer but the council didn’t approve of one of the people involved and black-balled it.
