Is that the same chip as on your shoulder?

A critical thing for wasps is that an independent agronomist has declared the pitch unsafe for OFFICiALS …. So there is no way it’s safe for Rugby!

I think we’re all fed up with the situation, but supporters asking for a refund on a ST is hardly going to help MR and the team. However, if you do intend to not attend any matches…. Can you stop your wind up Posts on here? After all you’ll stop being a supporter

I read the invoking of the mediation process to cover CCFC when they go to court for financial redress. If the club had not used the correct process before litigation then it wouldn’t have helped any claim for damages.

There is a potential litigation situation for Wasps developing if a rugby player gets injured due to the pitch, in addition to CCFC. Wasps will have to undertake a survey and risk assessment prior to their matches now and guarantee that it’s safe. That’s not going to be straightforward given...

My view is that we need some semblance of stability at this time and losing the CEO is not a great idea.

I appreciate that there are a couple of different agendas being pursued here, but the EFL appointed the agronomist.....so is independent. This actually helps CCFC's claim for compensation as Wasps would find it very difficult to counter argue that the pitch was fit for use. The EFL deemed the...

It’s going to be a grim season at this rate

Regarding Hamer. We saw last season how teams target him in an attempt to rile him, knowing he’s likely to get booked and hence nullifying part of his game. I really hoped he had learned

I wonder if there are clauses in CBS’s naming agreement regarding a disrepute to the brand. Secondly, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a term that requires wasps to have CCFC as tenants

The EFL could be circumspect in terms of fining the club. DCMS are likely to take a dim view of that due to the fact that the UK has a strategic aim to attract major international events to the country. If some of our stadia are put off staging them due to EFL regulations, then it affects any...

This is undermining our season and it's very bad for the clubs, already fragile, finances. Any litigation will take months if not a year to be realised. The backlog in our legal system is very large. I wouldn't be surprised if this didn't lead to a "fire sale" of one or more of our players. The...

Could this mean that Richardson has potentially given himself and his company preferential treatment in the event of liquidation??? I'd be interested to hear knowledgable people from the sectors view on this.

The rumour from Derby fans was Rosinior was watching Walker last night. Not Waggy

Given Wasps holdings end of year was 30 June. It'll be interesting to see the accounts for 2022. They'll make grim reading and any bond holder will surely know the business is not sustainable.

Thanks MarcSB, I wonder if they are spinning a line so they can start the season. However, if they go into administration prior to the start of the season.... there is a possibility that the players could find themselves "new employers".

The interest rate reflects the added "risk". However, I would doubt that they would ever receive that interest payment

At what point will the bond holders decide they’ve waited long enough to realise some payment. Given the year on year losses they could decide that waiting another year or two would lead to even less money being paid. I’ve seen no evidence that wasps business plan is working

I would be interested to hear what someone more knowledgable than me on these matters has to say. My understanding is that most of the bonds will be held by brokers on behalf of their clients AND those clients will need to communicate directly with those brokers, as to their views. Secondly, is...

The issue with this type of injury is that it is difficult to give an exact timescale, due to the internal bleed, which can hide the extent of the damage. Therefore, I don't think that MR knows yet the depth of the injury. If the club blindly made an assessment of "X" weeks without taking into...
