They only signed Baker a few weeks ago. Don't imagine he's a low earner at that level and they must have been well in the shit by then. Looks like they average 3 home games a month with crowds around 500. If they were all full price non-season ticket holders that would only be around £18K...

quick look at twitter shows pretty much all rugby fans hate Wasps and a lot of people think the league they play in is overhyped and the league the other team play in is better.

Its like Northampton all over again. Nobody in the ground and a few fans watching from the hill.

Hoff has been saving, he's got £1.50 now.

I wouldn't. Once Derek Higgs died there didn't seem to be anybody at the charity who had any affinity for CCFC.

Be doing a lot better if SISU moved out!

You can see the groundwork already being laid for that. And you only have to look at the original sale to see that a bit of 'look over there at SISU' PR from Wasps allows them to get away with pretty much anything.

But they can't put the rent up. As we all know Ann Lucas assured everyone that Wasps ownership of the Ricoh would not have a negative impact on CCFC. Think you'd struggle to find anyone who termed a massive rent increase as a positive. Or could it be we were fed a load of shit to keep people...

Things I've learned today: Daz's missus reads the forum.

Where's CJ and his flag? Part timer :joyful:

The whole reason we ended up with SISU is that once it became clear the council weren't prepared to consider the club having an ownership stake in the stadium they were they only one of the seven bidders still interested. Said it before, unless you have a connection to the club why would you...

If you think our boat trip to Charlton had issues don't google the Wasps players end of season boat trip!

That's what I'm getting at. Did he pocket the money for himself and then walk away? Whats this Port Vale chap like, reasonable? Do the fans just need to keep the day to day going to at least buy them time or will he be demanding silly money for rent?

Thing is buying the stadium in the first place and the damage that caused to the long term future of CCFC meant that should have had the same outcome you describe but as shown in documents seen in the various legal proceedings a PR campaign was undertaken, with the help of the Telegraph, and...

An obvious question is where has this season sponsorship and season ticket money gone along with the money from selling the ground?

As long as they aren't in Cov that's enough for me.

Things never seem to get any better over there. Are they just badly run or is there an underlying issue? Still if they go bust and Wasps kick us out ...

That’s not what is being said. The council have made, and continue to make, claims about the Ricoh sale which they have presented zero evidence to back up. Not least that it is in the best interest of the taxpayer and that it will not be to the detriment of CCFC or CRFC. Personally I couldn’t...
