Possible to make a freedom of information request to the council asking a simple yes/no if they are the 3rd party?

Im actually liking the fact they arent replying. Absolute guilt sign. Hundreds if not thousands on twitter giving them the hurry up and also asking for a response.

Silence says a lot in this case. Oh how the tide has turned
Not like its a difficult questions. Just needs a simple yes or no. And one of those answers would indicate there is something to hide.

Full statement



That doesn't disprove anything at all.

Boddy says he let them know in writing about the deadline, names who he went to.

Wasps copy and paste "We were surprised".

It effectively just says "It was all SISU" without any actual detail.

However, we believe it is important to defend ourselves against the accusations levied at us, and to address and clarify certain points.

Nothing is actually clarified though? If anything they have dropped the council in it.



Wasps don't think it was just a discussion between those 2 though, neither does Dave Boddy.

Wasps statement stinks of BS. Realistically who else is involved in talks around us playing at the Ricoh? You've got the council as freeholders who say they aren't involved, Wasps themselves and the football club (who have said they are happy to drop the NDA).

The third party could be the catering company possibly? Especially if we we're after a bigger share of the F&B income.

Can someone go back to Tom in twitter and point out Ccfc and Sisu didn’t say wasps had anything to hide. Mark and I sent an email to all parties and one responded to say ok if other parties said ok. It’s not clarity to repeat what you said earlier that the lead negotiator has taken issue with from the other side

And now they have replied...?

Doesn't really answer anything at all though does it? It doesn't disprove things that Boddy was saying either.

They don't even seem to know it was the fans who approached them ALL at the same time to ask for the NDA to be dropped. Wasps were cc'd n on the email.

I don't know what to make of it all to be honest, feels like piggy in the middle with contrasting claims coming from both sides. One side says there is an indemnity clause the other days that's a lie. Well there is only 1 way to find out for us fans to find out, and that is breaking this stupid NDA.
I would have though that if Wasps believe it is merely 'just a tactic by SISU' then call their bluff. Agree to waiving the NDA then expose SISU for lying about their being an indemnity.

They said it was an implication which tbf it was.

It’s just going to end up as another game of he said, she said. Best thing we can probably do is coming up with some very specific probing questions and get a journalist or Pete and Mark to ask them.

One might be “what other parties are involved in the NDA?”. Unfortunately it probably breaking the NDA to say so.

Agree. I don't want to commit money to buy season tickets based on me believing sisu when they've been lying. On the flip side of that I don't want to not get them and deprive the club of money to find out it's wasps acting the twat.

I had to make decision last season based on the flimsiest of evidence, would be nice to be a bit more informed this season.

Yeah. It's easier said than done to get the answers that reveal things really. Asking questions to the people direct is probably not going to do it - really needs some undercover moles and whistleblowers ;)

“They have never communicated to us why they withdrew –“

this line in Wasps statement is a load of crap, in Boddys statement he explains it’s because of the EFL deadline...

Not really, Mark and Pete approached them all in the same email.
It doesn’t matter. For all intents and purposes the club are saying drop it and wasps are saying they can’t. The implication, even though it’s not intentional, is they have something to hide.
I called this yesterday. It might mean they have something to hide but it might just mean the club know it can’t be dropped and so there’s no harm in them taking the opportunity presented by the email.
The long and the short of it is wasps can say “it can’t be dropped” and there’s nothing we can do about it unless we can find out who the other parties are.

Anything that is asked has to be done very carefully. Mark and Pete submitted a reasonable question about the NDA yet are now at the centre of an argument about why it can’t be dropped. It’s all very excited us thinking wasps have something to hide but there could be nothing in it and we’re back to arguing over who we should believe. Every action can have unforeseeable consequences.

Nope, the club said they were willing to in reply to fans. They were all CC'd into the same email.

The email is in here, all that was said was "we will if others will". They have chosen to take it that way.
