They just don’t wanna hear this, same as the fact wasps kicked us out this year. Doesn’t suit the anti sisu narrative

The fact is wasps didn't kick us out at all. We couldn't agree on a rent deal cos of the clauses wasps wanted. The clauses that came about cos of sisu running off to the eu. If this eu complaint hadn't of been filed we'd still be playing in Coventry.

What do you mean we couldn’t agree? We don’t own the stadium. They kicked us out because they wanted to

I'd forgotten how much of a clueless tosspot you were Valiant. Thanks for coming back and reminding us all.

I m in the camp of would nt want to come back to be the underlings of the Franchise London Wasps at the Ricoh unless as owners or part owners. I d much prefer a new ground in Coventry or very very close.
As for losing fans, we re down to just over 5000 who continue to go.
I genuinely do nt think the Ricoh will drag back fans.
I think 8/9000 tops which is shocking.
Interested too hear what people think we ll achieve by going back and subsidising a Franchise Rugby Club.
Happy to see them lose again yesterday.

Why would we be getting 8k to 9k at the Ricoh when last season the average was 12k?This season we haven’t been out of the top 6, last season we were never in it. We have no new ground on the horizon and with Sisu in charge it never will be. Even if we had owners who genuinely wanted to build a stadium, it would be years away. Do you honestly think that it is sustainable staying at St Andrews for the next 5 to 10 years. You are willing to gamble all that Wasps will go under? That seems to be a really risky strategy.
We need to be back at the Ricoh ASAP as far as I am concerned and I think that that would be the overwhelming view of most City fans, those that go to St Andrews and those that don’t.

No I do nt beieve 5 -10 years out of Coventry is sustainable.
I also do nt think it would be sustainable to be Franchise London Wasps tenants on their terms.
Paying rent for game days only, no extra income, paying for their repairs to the stadium which are needed.
As for the gates getting back up to the average of 12000, I d love it to.
However you d just have more excuses from people. oh I can nt go its still SiSu, oh they moved us away.twice now..
Its too expensive, the squads no good etc etc
I did nt go Northampton, I do go to St Andrews. I dislike SiSu and wish them gone. I hope the Franchise goes bankrupt,

Did your mum write that for you? You don't even have a view of your own. You just piggyback off other people for likes.

But paying out 7 million in wages is ok then? I see.
Click to expand...
And I’ve had this argument a number of times before. No it wasn’t - hence why the wage bill was savagely cut leading to our relegation to League One.

it was about that time the SISU OUT started because of investment in the team..

you can’t have it both ways - either the wage bill rises or you cut it to levels based on what you can afford

Sisu out protests started a couple of years before.

If there was no eu complaint would we be at the ricoh yes or no?

More than likely yes. But if the Ricoh sale is above board then it never affects Wasps.

If it isn’t then deal itself should have been scrutinised.

in hindsight SISU should have got one of the fans to issue the complaint.

About having no interest in ccfc but just being a c**t.
Click to expand...
Oh what a tough guy you are nick. How do you come to the conclusion I've no interest in ccfc? So just because I wont go to Birmingham this season then my previous 39 years of support is written off?
Ok nick.

Pathetic isn't. Bunch of sad fuckers if you ask me. Nothing better to do with their time than argue for brownie points on the internet.

I’m glad they’re questioning wasps ownership of the stadium. The deal stinks to high heaven.
You’ve answered your own question, it’s an attempt at blackmailing the club into not challenging it.
Amazing you call yourself the coventrian, yet back a London rugby franchise above your own football club.
