Well this thread is thoroughly depressing, we seem to be going backwards. Maybe its just me but I thought one of the few things everyone agreed on, with the exception of the likes of Salop, was that the council selling the stadium to a London rugby club was detrimental to our clubs future.

Where were we playing when the council first approached Wasps? Where were we playing when the stadium was sold to Wasps?

Good idea. Be a lot of people who haven't renewed but have heard good things about the ease of getting there, the atmosphere etc and will be curious to check it out.

How does it put pressure on the council? When it came out that SISU had approached the council and the council hadn't responded there was zero pressure on the council but lots of people posting saying it was a waste of time and SISU will never build a stadium.

It really needs to come from the Trust, hence the numerous threads of here and social media wanting them to pressure all sides. They have the ear of the media and are the self proclaimed biggest fans group. If they started making some noise it becomes much harder for the Telegraph and CWR to...

Great start :banghead:

Duggins slipped up and admitted, after months of denying it, that the club had made serious enquires. The council, as far as we are aware, still haven't responded to those enquiries. When this came out it was ignored by the Telegraph, CWR and the Trust.

To be fair the council kept insisting there had been no enquiries about land from the club until Duggins tied himself up in knots and accidentally revealed there had been. Odd response for him to say he is not aware of any talks as the last update we had on the issue was that the club was still...

Still amazes me that the likes of CWR and the Telegraph just passively accept Duggins being caught out or Wasps putting unreasonable demands in place. Surely the minimum we should expect is them to be questioned on it. Add in a trust that seems terrified to say a bad word about either and its...

Not too sure what you’re expecting the club to say. Boddy said a week ago he’s maintaining dialogue with Stuart Cain but the reality is your first two points require a third party the club don’t control to respond, Wasps and CCC respectively. Your first point requires Wasps to change their...

The key question would be have they had the loss of event days and customers offset by a reduction in rent. Of course to know that we would need to know the figure being talked about with us still there. Be interesting to know if there’s an increase if we come back. Could turn out to be a...

You could be on to something

FFS, twitter put that on my feed as a featured news story with that as the lead and then peoples responses to it.

Knowing the rules would put them at a higher standard than most officials we get.

Sure this is just another strange coincidence Edit: nothing to see here, just me being an idiot.

You're not paying the BBC, you're playing the club. If it wasn't the BBC commentary you'd have whoever the media chap at the club is doing the commentary. Think most people are happy to get the BBC coverage. They certainly had a lot of complaints when it was changed to Free Radio's coverage.

Not sure about Clive's 'diving header', it was more like he fell over!

That wasn't great. He seemed to hesitate when he was coming out and ended up nowhere near it.

Just logged on as usual and the video option was there. Thought maybe I'd got some sort of test feed as it didn't work for the first game at Birmingham but all the graphics are for the cup not the usual EFL ones which doesn't make sense when its not supposed to be available to stream anywhere.
