    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    what are we talking about here, not sure the quote I can find would be classed as her supporting further funding. “I think we need to know what’s going on. There are a lot of question marks about why they have requested £13 million from the combined authority. Personally, as a sports fan...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    I didn't give rugby a second thought until Wasps showed up. The most it registered was when CWR would mention a CRFC result. Now I hate the game with a passion, there's only one club to blame for that.

    Common sense would be a massive improvement over what we've seen in the past.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    I think there's a couple of issues in the short term. The administrator will want to keep events running to generate income and increase the chance of selling as a going concern but where does that money to fund that come from? After the pitch debacle it will be a while before we're due to make...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Has someone hacked his account? If only someone had pointed out they were being told a pack of lies constantly. The best one I've seen in the last couple of days is they couldn't ground share with Brentford as the Met wouldn't allow them to move back to London. Personally I have my doubts that...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Always amazes me that with all the things that have gone on at the council during his time, not particularly CCFC / Wasps related there's been some far more serious things, nothing ever seems to come back on him. He keeps bumbling along fucking things up collecting a huge pay cheque.

    Because I've got 3 councillors in my ward and they are all Conservatives.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Out of 54 councillors 39 are Labour. If they vote in favour of it tonight then that's it.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    From Gilbert, "This is all being done behind closed doors and in private. Just as the Arena bail out of 2013 was. That ended in judicial review. One source told me they were being “bounced into a decision”. If the ruling Labour group signs this off tonight, it will be signed off without scrutiny...

    emailed mine, they're all conservatives and routinely ignore emails but still got to give it a try

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    and then what, a few more months of nothing being done in parliament while they have another leadership contest? probably get back to work just in time for their Christmas break.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    This has got to be a mistake surely. Even our council can't be stupid enough to hand more public money over to Wasps? Could it be that they are working on taking back the stadium and will need to fund its operation in the short term to allow non-Wasps events to still take place? I can see some...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    I thought that was an old tweet or a fake. Even with this council I find that absolutely unbelievable. Owners of ACL when they applied to put us into administration. Point blank refused requests to assist the football club but happy to bail Wasps out yet again with public money. Its an absolute...

    Are we better off because Wasps have gone bump?

    Not sure why Richardson would stick around unless there's a very easy route to getting his money back. The idea that he gives a shit about Wasps is nonsense. He moved them across the country to make himself money, part of the reason they're saddled with so much debt is because he loaded an...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    On lunch so thought I'd pop BBC News on to get caught up. Of course they're busy getting stuck into Thornberry about Labours plans for the economy rather than talking about Kwarteng being sacked and the government is in chaos. Thornberry pointed out its pretty hard to respond when even those...

    Putting to one side if you agree with the death penalty or not isn't it all a bit pointless even as a deterrent if you can kill 17 people and not be sentenced to death? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-63251245

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    If what Haskell is saying is even remotely true then surely there needs to be an investigation as part of the insolvency proceedings. Sounds very much like they've been continuing to trade knowing full well they are in the shit and have been doing so for some time.

    America

    this is his second such case isn't it and there's at least one more to go I think. If he tries to declare bankruptcy I hope they go after him and get all the money he's no doubt got hidden away in case something like this happened. What a vile man. No doubt he will be asking people to chip in.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Why's he doing that, don't they keep insisting the mess is nothing to do with them or the mini budget Still at least its not like the bad old days when inflation was running rampant, interest rates were going up quickly and the IMF had to step in ;)
