    Sorry to hear about your loss Evo. I've got a 10 year old dog and I dread that day, he's like my shadow.

    Warwickshire CCC 2019 Thread

    Hate the name change. Hopefully they will think about changing it back now there's a Birmingham team in the Hundred. Although I can see that flopping and not lasting long.

    League One Playoffs

    Glad we got out of the division this season as there's going to be a few teams in there next year who will be expecting to be challenging.

    Warwickshire CCC 2019 Thread

    Test matches start this week. Counties are back in training, well Warwick are not sure about anyone else, and the season should be starting on 1 August. There will need to be a new format & fixture list which should be sorted in the next week or two.

    Julien Dacosta - CONFIRMED

    Looking at the photos suspect they were all done on the same day and they've just split the announcements over two days.

    Hope this is above board and as it seems. Already had friends in the industry flag up that the Arts Council was asked not to announce who had been successful with applications for previously announced funding last Friday so the government could re-annouce the funding. Hope that's just a...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Yep, and the rental in an increasingly competitive market place is a lot lower than people imagine.

    Ricoh Lease...

    That's the one. Not a bad deal when you think if we hadn't broken our original lease we'd have paid £65m over 50 years for access on matchdays only with no revenues. Of course we did get an offer to buy access to matchday revenues for a one off payment of £24m.

    Ricoh Lease...

    The loan was paid back by the bond. I know the purchase price was for ACL and the valuation is for the lease but even so it raises a lot of questions for me. Especially when you consider at the time of purchase we were playing there. There's not a valuation due for a while I don't think but...

    Ricoh Lease...

    You're thinking of AEG, SISU wanted to bring them in to run the non-football side of things (ie manage the stadium bowl and arena). I suspect had that happened we would have eventually ended up with AEG as club owners - they have a track record of owning teams that play in their venues and they...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Its no secret that Wasps were looking at Brentford prior to their move here. Seems it was the favoured option among their fans. When the move to the Ricoh was announced Wasps claimed Brentford was ruled out as it wouldn't be possible to play rugby there yet it later emerged they were one of...

    Open the pubs and tell everyone you're not allowed to meet people inside. We're governed by idiots.

    Could this be good news for us to return to the Ricoh?

    Richardson must be mental if he's personally guaranteed it. Didn't he sell his insurance business for £40M? Think he's got outstanding loans to Wasps of about £20m, if it all goes tits up and he has to write that off and is on the hook for £35m in bonds he's screwed.
