    Fisher: Butts Park Arena is our preffered option

    In my opinion we're pushing for a better deal to stay at the Ricoh. We won't be playing league football at the butts. That said what stops us locating our academy there on a rebuilt site? Academy could play on a 4g pitch with small stands either side. Room for an indoor training facility for...

    Anyone know what hours the butts park ticket office is open? A few of us looking to buy together but don't trust my mates enough to use my credit card lol

    Is Something Happening Here....?

    Pure speculation but I wonder if Sisu are now looking to build bridges. They've lost the stadium but the development rights for land next to the Ricoh are still up for grabs and if memory serves wasps aren't currently interested. Get a competitive team on the pitch, increase crowds, improve...

    Should Pressley be sacked imminently?

    I'd love to give him the season for surviving Northampton and the points deduction but results are now so bad I think he's got November at best to turn it around. Have to say I'm not confident he can and if we do need a new manager then he needs December to review the players before making some...

    Pressley Out

    I'd be lying if I said I wasn't concerned by the results over the last 12 months but i would rather we gave Presley the season and then took stock. With everything he's had to deal (sixfields, player sales and the shock ricoh return) I think he deserves us to stick by him a little longer...

    Anyone now thinking of jacking the whole thing in?

    Combination of things have already killed my enthusiasm for the season. The move to sixfields broke the habit, I was over the moon to hear we were moving back and went to gillingham. The ticket office issues meant I missed the next couple of games, and now we're playing poorly and with the low...

    Questions for Waggott and Fisher at the Trust open meeting

    That's an interesting response from fisher - they're not against it? Is that because it may be easier to negotiate with new owners than the council?

    Grendel what's your idea for the club to progress and how do the current owners fund it?

    So if your the council and sisu aren't going anywhere how long do you sit tight for? Understand and agree with some of your points but for me the only way I see the situation changing is if something happens to force the issue. My hope is this is it.

    Serious question torch -how do you think we get out of the current malaise and do you think sisu are the people to action that plan?

    Save for a jack walker what football club owner isn't in it to make money. There's the odd local business man made good but those people tend to end up having to sell because of the running costs. While I don't doubt the consortium expects a return from us and wasps the only way they manage...

    It does have potential to be an asset but not with our current owners who have made no attempt to grow the club but who also won't walk away from it. So we're stuck in Groundhog Day until there's a game changer. Could this be it? My hope is that the consortium trying to buy acl will bid for...

    It means a great deal to me but the Coventry today is very different to the coventry of 1987. If we were to win the fa cup don't doubt those numbers would be on the streets again but as a coventry fan you know as well as I do we don't have 250,000 fans in the city if we did we wouldn't be in the...

    It's not ideal that a club has to move to survive and its a sad reflection of modern sport. I might have been brought up in Finham but due to hard times I can't afford my mortgage so I move to nuneaton, I'd rather not as I'd like to stay close to my roots but i can't afford to - is that right or...

    Dispels some of the argument about it being the death knell for cov rugby. Getting a bit annoyed with some of the outrage from our fans - our owners have stated they don't want to buy the ricoh, Wasps need a ground to survive and seem prepared to bid. The council have a obligation to consider...

    Yes I've been on the wasps boards and whilst more are against than for there also seems to be number who aren't from London and picked wasps based on england players rather than a geographical link to the club and who seem prepared to accept it if it means the club survives. Not sure if this is...
