Car dealer's mate: 5K is an insulting offer Next person into showroom: I'll give you 5K Car dealer: deal, you are the greatest customer I've ever had, we are so lucky you came here

It's pretty mind-blowing to think that Wasps have the whole thing with a 250 year lease for £6.5m when our original lease had us paying £60m just for 50 years matchday access with an offer to buy access to matchday revenues for £24m. Just have a quick think about what Wasps got for £6.5m...

Up to now the issue would have been getting people in and the concourses but with pubs and restaurants open does that still apply?

They were being charged as if they were using the stadium bowl 365 days a year. Valuations office looked into it and ruled they should only be liable for actual use such as matchdays. Seem to recall they had been overpaying for 7 or 8 years but the council only refunded 3 meaning the council...

SISU's bid couldn't be accepted because they wanted Higgs to work with them on community projects? What laws prevent a charity working on community projects in line with their stated aims?

We don't. If there's a chance of a bidding war clubs make it known so they get best return. You arguing against your own point here as Wasps didn't pay a premium for a period of exclusivity.

Nobody else was ever given a chance to bid on the Ricoh with a 250 year lease. Given that we are told that Wasps were going bust imminently surely the council held all the cards in negotiations so why were they done in secret? How did that get the best return for the taxpayer?

What about SISU's offer for Higgs 50%
