    What a day. Will the good news never end!

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    There is exactly that clause in the lease CD, it was even in the bond prospectus as a risk. There may well be a proper legal bunfight between the bondholders and CCC over this in due course. (That's as long as the person at Wasps working Maton's gob takes his arm out of his arse for a while...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    I'm not sure Worcester fans (best described as 'long-suffering') would agree. I wonder if a ground share would suit both parties though. Time for Wasps to pull that 'nomad' card again?

    Well that's never going to catch on hereabouts, is it. :)

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Quite possibly, but if you haven't already understood the visceral dislike of (London) Wasps pitching up here, fucking over the local rugby and football club, and disenfranchising their own supporters, I guess it's a bit late for me to try to explain.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    And are 100% secured against the bonds I believe. Blimey, if only someone had told me how exciting accountancy could be when I was at school. I wouldn't have wasted so much time trying to make it as a fighter pilot. :)

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    So other than the immense satisfaction, where does this leave us, CCFC? Basically, as I see it anyway, at least where we already are and maybe even slightly better off. Our sub-lease remains on the same terms, and whoever takes over the CBS, be that the Council, the bondholders, or an as yet...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Just to add. The fuckwits running the council sold our club down the river for this bunch of slimy bastards. All for what. Kevin Maton, Kevin Maton, your team took a hell of a beating...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Why on earth would we want to get involved with the utter moral disgrace and complete financial ruin that is Wasps (and pretty much Premiership rugby as a whole)? That would be madness. It might however be a good time for a substantial investor to step in and negotiate taking on a 250-year...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    This can't be right. A leader of the sole party of true patriotism, law and order, and common decency, obviously off his tits at the Queen's funeral? Surely some mistake.

    Don't forget pounds, ounces, noggins and groats. We shouldn't sell Brexit short now...

    Has London Bridge fallen ?

    Bile and hatred? Get over yourself mate, just some people thinking that it's a bit over the top. If anyone's showing their intolerance and anger here it's you. My vote for the worst people in society are the current breed of forelock tugging Tory wankers who will happily see the poorest and...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    I'm not convinced either, two stands completely empty, and one less than half full. More like 4,000 perhaps. Wasps have got plenty of form for being less than honest with their attendances, and with good reason if they're hoping to attract someone daft enough to throw money at them...

    Busy in the corporates too... :)

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Wasps in particular seem to try very hard not to publish their attendance figures. Can't think why. :)

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Unless I've misread it, that's the broker basically saying that there's been nothing from Wasps since 2nd September. I could have told them that, and I bet I'd charge less than the broker too. Wasps are desperate to stall any action from the bondholders because they know that would be the...

    Has London Bridge fallen ?

    Starmer's suit clearly isn't black enough. Do we really want to risk putting the country into the hands of an obviously disrespectful, neo-marxist, republican revolutionary? I think not.

    Has London Bridge fallen ?

    I take Nick's point, without completely agreeing perhaps... I wonder if this endless media fawning and overblown corporate wailing is going to have unintended consequences. I've gone from "don't necessarily agree but no harm in showing some respect", through "this is getting a bit much now"...

    Has London Bridge fallen ?

    I don't quite see that. Covid killed an awful lot of people and gave many more a long term illness. Understandably a large number of people were worried about catching it or passing it on. Anti-vax loons and "it's no worse than flu" chunterers made full use of freedom of speech and action, even...
