C'mon mate, it's less security because now the club will never have a chance to buy into the Ricoh streams, regardless of who owns them. As for Wasps arrival meaning that we had to move back, I can't even begin to untwist that logic. I don't think anyone was aware of the Wasps deal until it...

In fairness mate he does pretty well. I mean have you tried typing in a strait-jacket? It's hell on your nose, capitalisation is particularly tricky, and Ctrl+Alt+Del is a total non-starter... ;)

Tell yer friends, I'm here all week. ;)

Might as well get some of the seeds too while we're at it. From what I understand it would calm the crowd down, increase snack sales, and we could sell a bit and use the profit to help fund a few new signings. In fact, isn't there a former Wasps player who could advise on the latter? They're...

Why would they need to? They've got the use of a facility that cost £118m to build, for less than £6m, and for 250 years. And with a sitting tenant contracted to boot, and naming rights still to come. It's just a pity that such a stonking deal was solely offered to the wrong team, imho.* Ho...

Yes, but it would keep the missus quiet during footy. There are some things that are worth risking armageddon for, surely. ;)

It is good news. I still don't like them being here, mind, but they don't dick about that's for sure. I'm guessing their expert took one look and said that by February the pitch would be more or less unplayable for either side. Fair play to them for acting quickly.

If it would shut the missus up I'd buy one tomorrow. However this presupposes that my driving is the *only* thing that generates complaints. Having said that, if my driverless car comes with a robot that can do DIY, mow the lawn, change nappies, take the rubbish out, and make well-thought out...

I believe October is traditionally the Wicker Man thing. Or is that just in Hinckley? Either way, I nominate Tim. ;)

Fair comment SFP, and I'm all in favour of peace and understanding - the one thing that's clear is that Wasps fans haven't got any blame in all this. Lovely as Coventry is at this time of year, I don't doubt you'd rather not have to come up here too often. ;) And you're quite correct to point...

This Wasps fan certainly doesn't see the move to Coventry as right... http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2014/oct/09/wasps-coventry-move-london-fans-rugby-union You might not have had a permanent home, but then I'm guessing that's true for a lot of rugby clubs. More than a few football teams...

Indeed. I get massively frustrated here, because people seem to think that challenging how the Council have gone about this seems to imply that this disregards what an absolute mess SISU have made of things. That's lazy thinking, and it's vaguely insulting to my mind - I won't accept being...

Rubbish. You've been asked the same, simple question three times, yes or no, and you won't answer it. It's not complicated, but it's embarassing seeing you squirm around like a politician trying to dodge the question so I'll answer it for you. Were SISU offered the same deal as Wasps, 100% of...

I completely agree that I'm wasting my breath G, and in truth I give up. If anyone here thinks that by asking hard questions of Wasps and CCC that I (or anyone else here) is somehow pro-SISU then frankly they aren't thinking straight. And that's about as politely as I can put it.

C'mon mate. You think that CCC offered that exact deal to SISU when they came back from Northampton do you? It's just that there was nothing in the papers about it, and a boatload of NDAs (non-disclosure agreements) regarding the Wasps deal, this at almost exactly the same time the council...

After being told it was time to rebuild trust rather than talk about ownership. Regardless of what happened before Northampton, there's some convenient rewriting of recent history going on here.

Lazy rubbish, more like. When did I ever give SISU an easy ride? Like a lot of people here, you're thinking that because SISU lost everything about this is OK. Now you're even pretending that the only people against this are pro-SISU. That's utter bollocks, admit it. To get one over on...

When were they asked to put an offer in then? It's just that on our return from Northampton the council quite clearly said that it was time to rebuild trust before talking about ownership. In the meantime, could you answer the question please - it's a really, really easy one. I'm not making a...

Were they offered 100% of ACL and a 250-year leashold for circa £5.5m? A simple yes or no will suffice.

You can try, but I'll tell you the answer. NDA. If you want a few questions Steve, try these. Are Wasps likely to allow CCFC to buy a share in ACL in the next few years, or do they require all of the income generated by ACL to keep the rugby club afloat? If a stadium deal became available in...
