Shepherds Bush is alright - great for live music and some decent boozers.

I known it’s London real estate, I spend a stack of time down there so know the area well, but your comment is a red herring as it’s all relative. They might own it, but they need a new stadium, and guess what? Even if their current stadium occupies valuable land, any thought of moving or...

QPR fans singing “Shit ground, no fans” was particularly entertaining seeing as the attendance yesterday was 2500 greater than the capacity of their poxy old shoebox of a stadium.

With Oxford United’s plans for a new stadium, the Kassam could be looking for a new occupant. Surely that would suit Wasps’ demographic and with only 3 stands is more than big enough for them. They could probably retain their Henley In Arden training centre as well?

This nobber idiot gloating on another post about Villa being the biggest club in the midlands when the rugby team he supports aren’t even the biggest in Coventry. 🤣

When I was a nipper we used to go on holiday to Pwllheli in North Wales so I associated Wales with the seaside. When we moved to Helsby just outside Chester, my dad used to pacify me when I was being a little bastard by asking if I fancied a trip to Wales. We’d get in the car (a Cortina mk 3)...

Excluding the hospitality tier above, the main stand has the lowest capacity of any section of the CBS arena and holds around 5000-5500 spectators, so based on your comment, there may have been 4000 there (or maybe 1000 paying people) in that part of the ground.

They were all too busy queuing in the fanzone for a complementary Wasps rusty tea towel holder to take a picture during the game.

“Average gates of around 5,500 at Adams Park”. Back to square one, then? 🤣

A rugby trial with Wasps…

God bless you and your family. Thoughts and prayers.

I just took a look at the drunkenwasps forum. I was being unfair in my opinion that it was a minority on there that are eejits. I take it back - it’s pretty much all of ‘em - they are a snobbish collective who need to be gone. Pronto.

That’s a bit unfair, though. You’re essentially endorsing a similar move to when Wasps moved to Coventry. Although not commandeerIng an already occupied stadium, it would likely impact on existing rugby teams in Brum with historic pasts. For me, I want Wasps out but the best solution has to be...

All things considered, their fans have remained loyal - they’ve not had a sniff of success in years yet still pull in better crowds than the likes of Chelsea or Man City would if their form was similarly indifferent year after year. That said, Everton have flirted with relegation before, I...

Some of the teams being mentioned represent towns and cities where football is the exclusive focus for spectator sports. Coventry has always had numerous sports teams scrapping for local support at various times. Rugby Union, Rugby League, Speedway, Ice Hockey, Basketball etc. - they don’t all...

With you on that one. We have friends who have supported 3 different teams in past 20 years (Quins, Saracens and Wasps - (then in Wycombe). All switches based on house moves to within 30 minutes of their previous location. It baffles me how anyone could be so uncommitted to their current team...

Bournemouth is a ticking time bomb of a club - sooner or later they will be back to their tinpot level or bankrupt. Where was FFP when they shot for the stars. I hope they all cry themselves to sleep tonight.

Agree with this. I live not too far away and although there are a few sky blue fans locally, the general population around there aren’t. And it’s all about being in walking distance really. Other than our match days, the busiest I have seen it was a few Sundays ago when there were about a dozen...

The WMP horses used to be stabled at Chace Ave in Willenhall but they removed them about 15 years ago.
