A pair of cygnets have been causing a flap in Coventry. 

The baby swans have been trying to cross the road by Swanswell Pool in the city centre. 

Plans for rugby club Wasps to build a training centre on the site of Coventry City FC's youth academy were approved yesterday.

Coventry City, which leases the land from Coventry Sports Foundation (CSF), has said any reduction in hours its youth players could use facilities may diminish the status of its development programme in the eyes of the Football Association.

Wasps Group CEO David Armstrong said it understood "sensitivities regarding the location" and it was open to further talks "with CSF and CCFC about any other ways we might be able to assist" with the academy's future.

Today CSF said: "CSF has repeatedly invited the football club to meet about the future of academy. A meeting with the football club and Wasps was arranged for last month but the football club chose not to attend. The offer to sit down and discuss the matter is still very much on the table."
