Then came the deadline.... Coventry City Council is willing to consider bids for the Ricoh Arena and the surrounding land, the authority's leader has confirmed. Councillor Ann Lucas said the council would listen to "reasonable and sensible offers" for the freehold but stressed the site would...

You are right we will never know. However I would say based on their previous actions they wouldn't. After the council took over the loan. They did not believe there was a commercially viable deal to have. Even when wasps agreed a deal the commented about how they were surprised a deal could...

So for one last time, I say, quite clearly, that I am prepared to meet with Joy Seppala and to have a discussion with her without prejudice and subject to contract in relation to all and any issues in relation to the Ricoh Arena, the land around it, and Coventry City Football Club. But let me...

I agree and I think there are probably about two fans on here who said they are happy about wasps been here. The rest just say they can't blame wasps for what they are doing and unfortunately they are showing our owners how to conduct business :( No SISU said it was about morals I think it...

Not as influential at left it won't be as impactive a loss for us

Coventry City Football Club Statement - The club are aware SISU have served l... I would say the wasps sale hugely destroys the appeal. Remember the decision for the council to take over the loan meant no sporting institution or franchise could buy ACL. (Key part of the JR)

I am sure someone from the club said they are doing it for us fans?

They get informed of that when you bid and negotiate. When you are told you need to bid by January and the Freehold is Not for sale. Once January comes round and passes you say Freehold or nothing we are building a new stadium. Is it as this point you want the council to say someone else has...

Join up online and I will send you a goody bag its got a t shirt a pen and a yellow and black sun visor hat. Or maybe the hysterical pro wasps posts are just ' I don't think they are the ones people should be venting their anger on here' Under the guise of moral outrage over franchising when...

Must just be me and Otis then and you are completely right. Wasps are wrong to modify a stadium they bought for 6 million plus 12 million debt. SISU ignoring a statement by the council that they need to bid by January or the council would go else where. Was not a clear warning and should be...

The start of an excuse to leave the Ricoh again.

At one point they did, second time round after SISU tried to financially crush them, you are right they probably didn't to be fair. It would have had to have taken a significant bid to force their arm. So we bid 30k more

This is because Wasps the bullshiters pretended that they wanted a good relationship with the club then they put their own badge up!!! If that was not provoking enough they wanted the best changing rooms for themselves!!!! The bastards!! go SISU. I do find it a bit strange it bothers us...

Or he is right and the odd chap that disagrees with him has massive sour grapes against anything wasps because CCFC have been affected

For the JR appeal I take it?

I didn't agree with CCFC going to Northampton. I saw it as depriving me of my football club and didn't think the tactic would work. I never blamed Northampton for it though. I don't think franchising should be allowed in Rugby. I can understand why the council took wasps offer I can't...

If he normally talks sense and all of a sudden he isn't in this one point. I would suggest you consider that maybe he is still talking sense.

Gassiest tripe I ever drink

If wasps show any signs of struggling. We will be facing another 5-7 year war of attrition, with us possibly popping to Northampton again. At the same time keeping costs to a minimum. Whilst hoping they fold. I were you i would buy two pies

Think most people are just pragmatic enough to know none of this is wasps fault. I have heard probably two/three people believe a new stadium is coming. They are the sands ones who believed it prior to the wasps thing. So I don't really get your point. Unless you mean when someone...
