Ah, golf. A good walk spoilt. I've had some analysis done on my swing, and apparently the problem is that I'm standing too close to the ball.... after I've hit it. :) (The old ones are always the best).

That's the best you can come up with? What pathetic rubbish. I've watched rugby in Cov for a long time, whilst you had no interest in it whatsoever until the franchise arrived and lined your grubby little pockets. You're an embarassment to yourself with your constant paid-for adverts for...

I hear what you're saying mate and it's not unreasonable in itself. However I'm not convinced that Wasps (or anyone else for that matter short of nation states) can keep rolling debt over in that way and not be punished/abandoned by the market. And again, this is peak Wasps - they've never...

It's everything to do with franchising. If Wasps had come here and built their own stadium I still wouldn't go because it would be morally wrong (in my opinion) to do so.

And I think it's sad that some people don't have a moral code beyond "franchising is OK as long as it doesn't happen to a team that I care about".

It was a great game, however to be a raging success commercially you'd expect it to be a sell out. At the moment Wasps show no signs of going after CRFC, indeed they've loaned them a few useful players this season to help out. However if Cov RFC ever get to a position to threaten them then...

The 'fact' is that Wasps didn't sell out for the biggest game in their history at the Ricoh. I'd say that I'm sorry if that offends you, but the truth is that I'm not. I can live with people going to watch them, it's undoubtedly a good day out. However the hypocrisy of those who claim to be...

Great game of rugby but patently not a sell out, which is surprising given it's the biggest game that Wasps have ever played at the Ricoh in terms of importance. It'll be nice for them to play in London for a change next week though. However, I doubt they'll be taking 43,000 from Cov down there...

I'm not entirely sure what the FA's fit & proper owner's test is, but I have a suspicion that it looks a bit like this (except easier)...

One Juan Sara. There's only one Juan Sara... Actually, I don't remember him being that bad, but then I don't remember what I had for breakfast these days. :)

Probably my favourite Dylan track, is Isis. That probably gets me on a list somewhere these days, lucky I'm not going to the States anytime soon! I really like most of his stuff, but I went to his concert at the NEC a few years back and it was bloody awful. I don't think he wanted to be there...

Fair play SBT, I must confess that I'd never really thought of it that way - definitely a different perspective on it.

SATS week. They're all at home revising. :)

Open and waiting! :)

Beat me to it... I was thinking of something like this... :)

Bond price currently is about 105, which I think is 5% above where they started out. There's been fluctuation up and down but from what I can see this isn't a share typically bought to trade in any case - some will be sitting on it for the 5% return, some (as you point out) will simply be...

It's crap isn't it. On the upside, if you can get yourself a 25-mile long one of these, you're welcome to plug into my router (oo-err missus!) ;)

Houdi, some fair points from you too. There are undoubtedly many things that Wasps do very well, not least the matchday experience which I hear is excellent and well managed. They've actually figured out that when people go to games they'll want to be welcomed and probably want to spend money...

A few observations of my own, if I may. I've developed a morbid fascination with Wasps too, undoubtedly. ;) The Ricoh wasn't actually full on Saturday, just over 30,000 as I recall. Not bad at all, but not full. When you bear in mind what was riding on the game, finishing top of the top...

I don't see that at all. It's just as likely that a vote for the communist candidate could be read as meaning you want a communist to be mayor, rather than not having a mayor at all. A 24% turn out should tell the story here - that's how many people were bothered about having a mayor from any...
