    Wasps signs have actually gone!!

    Alright. Rosslyn Park have a bigger brand value in Rugby circles than Wasps. There there never mind 🙄 Let’s see.

    Wasps signs have actually gone!!

    Haven’t they just been relegated, not expelled from their pyramid?

    Wasps signs have actually gone!!

    Unpopular opinion: Scenario: Frasers own ACL but don’t buy CCFC. ACL is run as a stand alone business entity. Naturally, the higher the revenue the better. Scenario: Cov paying (£600k?) per year to ACL is deemed to be not enough and pressure is out upon CCFC for more rent. ACL goes crying to...

    Ex Player Watch

    Just turned over to watch it during the WC half time. Tommy Widdrington is their manager (our ex head of recruitment). Took several players to Bristol Rovers after he left us.

    Ex Player Watch

    Don’t forget Josh Barrett for King’s Lynn who played 6 games on loan from Reading in our L2 season. Legendary.

    Wasps signs have actually gone!!

    Will that mean local derbies v CRFC? Might be 4000 at Butts and a few at CBS for that. I’m not a fan of Rugby but they might be games worth a watch. Beer in seat? Bit of rugger bugger animosity? Might be a laugh.

    Mike Ashley Takeover …Ready and Waiting

    I just think they’ll be a bit expensive. Quick google (caveat here: I’ve been caught with that before and the sarky-twats on here got all giddy about it) says they are valued at $4 billion. Their squad and ground aren’t worth that obviously- the rest is brand value. CCFC has brand value (some...

    Wasps signs have actually gone!!

    Offer the Administrator a tenner for the signs and that you’ll remove them yourself. They’re an asset of the Wasps, right?, and moneys should go to creditors. In all seriousness the new Wasps entity ought to have them (if they’ve purchased the trademark) but I’m not convinced that we’ve seen...

    Where will we finish

    We’ve flown up the table and 6th is possible. SISU / Joy has been incredibly lucky that we’ve been on the run we have. In the space of 3 weeks we’ve gone from bottom of the table - ish to play off outliers. We’ve gone from valuing our squad at £30m tops to £30m minimum. Without that run...

    Actually, posting a photo of Seppala’s house was a bit far. No need.

    Bizarre. Didn’t think Twitter had any moderators left! Any ideas what last posts were that led up to removal?

    Mike Ashley Takeover …Ready and Waiting

    Rightly or wrongly the idea of having a stadium at Warwick Uni was the least crazy of the SISU plans. We’ve talked about it on this forum: having the best of the student footballers, our players getting decent education for when they retire (some kind of course they could do outside of...

    Better Days ..... SkyBlueBeliever

    You’ve often been right so 100% kudos to you but is it a big charade for DK to then go bidding against MA in court.? Contingency plan in case Judge went against MA? goes to DK as his ringer rather than letting another party to the party? Is that the thinking? Many people here (myself included)...

    Arena dilapidation costs - £12.9m over next 3 years

    These are the type of things a tenant could often put claims in for. Does DK have the necessaries to front MA about it? Let’s see. (Or he could say, right, super excited to get things rocking, let’s say I do the super repairs for half the stadium. £12.5m buys me half in effect, right? I’ve got...

    Hard times for ex-Wasps players if their hooker has to do these things.

    Maybe total red herring but what happened to Ray’s ProZone which was absorbed into CCFC valued at £6-£7m back in day?

    DK’s key line “I’m a trader, if MA want to sell on to me what they’ve just purchased for a quick profit I’m here to talk” Also means (I suggest) “I’m a trader, if MA wants to buy from me what I’ve just purchased for a quick profit (?!?) I’m here to talk”
