    Wasps pull out...

    So to sum up: Wasps say legal action must be stopped Legal action stops Two year deal agreed Wasps change the requirements to 'all proceedings surrounding acquisition and ownership of the Ricoh' Absolute c**ts. That has never been the requirement. Interestingly Reid is reporting that the EC is...

    Wasps pull out...

    It says a lot about our local media that having done a deal with the council to supress the ACL bail out paving the way to Wasps takeover they have once again managed to fuck the club over by dropping this out no questions asked to allow Wasps to kick us out while everyone points the finger at...

    Wasps pull out...

    I'll struggle to travel to most games unless we do end up at the Butts or Rugby which I doubt but I'll be getting a season ticket anyway.

    The Ricoh..

    All seems pretty clear. Wasps decide they want the club out but can't be seen to be the bad guys so those sympathetic to them leak it to Gilbert knowing he will report it no questions asked, only had to see which social media accounts fired up. Cue predictable outrage despite not knowing the...

    Wasps pull out...

    Gilberts been completely played here and the club and its fans are the ones who will suffer. The complaint to the EC is not legal action so should have no impact on staying at the Ricoh. Absolute disgrace from Wasps. Surely now the Trust have to move quickly and organise a strong protest...

    Government orders congestion charge on Coventry roads

    Its only good if you can push people towards a viable alternative. Without public transport being up to scratch and / or less polluting vehicles being cheaper all you're doing is taxing people who have no alternative because the local council have failed to come up with an acceptable plan.

    The Ricoh..

    That was when Reid was there, he didn't agree with their decision to cover it up and got pushed out. Not sure if Gilbert was there in a more junior role prior to taking Reid's place. If you ask him about it on twitter he claims to have no knowledge about it, bit strange for someone who's...

    The Ricoh..

    Seems he's been out in the sun too long and has got sunstroke.

    The Ricoh..

    He's not wrong. The Lucas thing infuriates me. How you can openly and repeatedly lie to the public and there not be any comeback when you're found out is beyond me. Tried complaining to the local government ombudsman about it only to be told you can't file a complaint about something like that...

    Jeremy Kyle Show Suspended

    You can almost guarantee it. Kyle has been axed because nobody will really give it a second thought. It filled up hours of the daytime schedule cheaply. There will be some repeats of other shows as filler over the summer, and then a similar show will take its place. Kyle will probably end up...

    4pm on Saturday

    Are you really that naïve? What do you think the response would be if Nick suggested everyone goes to the Ricoh and gives Wasps some stick? Personally I don't see it being a thread full of people agreeing followed by the Trust / JHW / CT backing the protest. I fully expect the response would be...

    The Ricoh..

    The more Gilbert responds on twitter justifying releasing this 'news' yesterday the more it seems he's been played. His comment about taking it to Europe is inaccurate isn't it? This isn't the legal case SISU lost recently being appealed to Europe.

    The Ricoh..

    To be fair Coventry Council are notorious for trying to avoid wasting taxpayers money on trips to Europe. Not like they disappear off to Cannes every year and then refuse to report back on their visit.

    The Ricoh..

    Reid has tweeted that he hasn't reported on it due to confidentiality issues around the Ricoh talks and has described it as a misleading leak from one side.

    The Ricoh..

    Not sure I agree with that. I would expect a journalist, if being fed information, to question why that information is being passed to them. Is it because someone deems there's a public right to know or is the journalist being played. That would apply even more when its a story that has in the...

    The Ricoh..

    Only had a quick google but that's how it seems to me. You make a complaint and then that's it. Not like a legal case where you put your side and have to provide evidence, you just point the finger and the EC goes off and does its own investigation.

    The Ricoh..

    It means they won't even decide if they're going to look into it or not for 7 years.

    The Ricoh..

    This has been rumoured in the past but the rumour was that as well as being long term there was a significant increase in the rent. While going season to season is a pain signing up for anything that does allow a break clause of something in the region of 5 years could give its own problems...

    When the council & Wasps told him.

    The Ricoh..

    For a club that now claims to have been nomadic and close to going out of business without their own stadium the way their fans relish the problems facing the football club says a lot about rugby supporters. Even our biggest rivals, well apart from Sunderland with their made up rivalry, don't...
