Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC (8 Viewers)

[jordan210]

I am also expecting twists.

Although, they currently don't have any players or staff for the rugby side.

No one has joined another club yet. I’m sure some will in the coming days.

I guess untill the official notice of administration is live on public records will be rumours of this and that

 

[duffer]

Makes me uncomfortable reading rumours of staff being told to wait before signing elsewhere.

At least one of their players has already signed elsewhere, Biyi Alo to Racing 92 in France. It's in the live updates below, if you're interested.

Conversely there are also rumours of Jack Willis to Bristol and Atkinson to Leicester. Their big names aren't sticking around...

[jordan210]

The reason we might not have seen any thing from Rfu is currently there’s not even a club who can play in the championship

 

[oldfiver]

Unless someone buys both Wasps and the lease, and then gives them ownership of it again, this doesn't happen. If that was going to happen, it would surely have occurred whilst they were still a viable Premier division club.

What is there in "WASPs" to buy?

 

[robbiethemole]

This went well....

So that was £5.3m that went into the bottomless pit with fuck all to show for it???

10 pallets of plastic flags?

Erm... the name, and a shitload of plastic flags?

Feck, Nick beat me to it!!

 

[oldfiver]

Not enough people to give them too?

 

[Liquid Gold]

Plastic flags?

So who did the DD before paying it out and checking their financial position?

 

[jordan210]

Where’s Nick Eastwood in all this. Isn’t he still ceo and director of Ice and acl

 

[robbiethemole]

No they won’t and Vaughan should not be getting involved or influencing any decision making. He was part of the failed process and I’m pretty sure the administrator will be wanting him to fade away.

Exactly this, he's part of the arseholes who fucked their club up and now, suddenly, he has the answers and is part of a solution?????
The numpties on Wasps site need to wake up and see these fuckers for the liars and cheats they are.

Good will?
*snigger*

 

[wingy]

How much does the arena go for in admin?
Best estimates please.
I've got circa £20M whizzing in the grey matter.

 

[Nick]

The bloke who didn't know another rugby club existed in Cov?

 

[robbiethemole]

probably dozy Duggins and moron Maton had a quick look, and thought it was 'ok'??

 

[Samo]

Genuine question: Why do some people refer to WASPS with a small S at the end like this: WASPs ?

 

[robbiethemole]

I don't ! hahaha

I'm hoping it's just to irritate them.

And WASPs Finance of which little is said!

 

[duffer]

the paranoid part of me thinks they arn't out of the Ricoh yet. Nor are the relegated or even fully suspended this season. I'll be a lot happier once the relegation is confirmed.

Mate, if you're not looking hard for every possible downside, then you've probably not been a Cov fan for long enough. I know exactly how you feel!

If FRP have said it is going into Admin - then it is. Court papers have to be prepared and served first.

Until it turns out the rugby club is now inside ACL which gets a council bailout

More likely Reeves - who will reply with "things change you know!"

 

[Samo]

Easy to see why nancyball supporters are generally regarded as degenerate scumbags.........Because you all f*cking are! I knew rollover-like-pansie-ball fans are generally c*nts but you foul dickheads are a whole new level of c*ntishness.

Not keen then?

 

[oldfiver]

Planning permission can remain intact of a period of years, domestically I think you have to start something within 3 years. Will building start with no finance - I suspect not. There was also the press coverage about Wasps not having paid the lease money for the site, as it wasn’t going to proceed. It was a bit bizarre that wasps were going to pay for the lease but Richardson doing the building, unless taken as more evidence that the move to Coventry was less about the rugby and more about enrichment of individuals through property development.

so - another failed project

Good afternoon Mr Vaughan, I take it you're not having a good day?

 

[oldfiver]

We all agree the place needs a whole repaint, a good clean in and out and new bogs, but surely thats not 20 Million?

They got £10m for an entrance hall?

 

[oldfiver]

Biyi Alo is quite a small name though

WASPS is smaller by 2 letters!

Hi lawrence how are you keeping ?

 

[duffer]

Biyi Alo is quite a small name though

I think he shortens it for convenience.

He is literally massive, not one of their absolute stars, props rarely are, but definitely not someone they'd want to lose.
