    I’m getting some very distracting ads for ladies’ skimpy underwear tonight Nick. Is it some kind of algorithm, or do you personally select what we might want to buy based on our avatars?

    Wasps signs have actually gone!!

    The idea they were selling in 2014 was that they would bring a completely new level of rugby entertainment to the city, invest in facilities etc. They betrayed all of that and inflicted huge losses on people. Now they are openly saying in this article that they want to start again in the lower...

    Yes, should have made it clearer. Not sure a CEO or a journalist would use the phrase 'sniffing around' 😀

    'But Scott insists that they can all live happily alongside each other and sees this as a hard reset to re-establish Wasps in the Midlands and draw a line under the past.' So they seem to have decided that the West Midlands is now their home, and there is no trace of embarrassment or an apology...

    He also did not refute the notion of even one day returning to the CBS Arena, the ground they bought in December 2014, with the help of a loan from Coventry City Council. "Who's to say we're not?" he said. "And I'm not saying we are. We've not concluded our conversations and we've not signed a...

    Really appreciate the effort Grendel has put into doing this, and it’s been fun trying to work things out. But I don’t have all the players, and the link seems completely beyond me, so I am probably out at this stage. Good luck to the rest of you! I’ve made a donation anyway - I see that the...

    Yes hard to prove, but ChiefDave (post #713) reckons there may have been a witness connected to Wasps who was prepared to speak about it? It's not like they were merely struggling a bit, and realistically hoping to turn the corner. They were tens of millions down.

    I assume you mean trading insolvently (although insolently is just as suitable)? Just googled this, and there are potentially serious consequences for directors of companies if they continue to trade knowing that they are going to become insolvent, thus causing additional losses to the company...

    Wasps signs have actually gone!!

    I guess I’m naïve about company finance, but I always assumed that there would be a framework or system in place to prevent debts getting out of hand to this degree. I mean there’s about 250 companies on that list – are there no alarm bells which ring when a business ordering goods or services...

    I love these little films you make Hill. How do you manage to find the actors to play the parts so well at such short notice?

    But not in a way that suggests anyone at CCC can pre-empt the planning process in a neighbouring area.

    Eviction notice

    But as you say yourself I don't think it's even in CCC area (Rugby?). Green Belt land, massive development, access requirements, environmental assessments etc. needed, possible call-in by the Government. Really not something that individuals in neighbouring CCC could influence much or make...

    Seems a bit strange to me that Frasers are basing their strategy (including buying the CBS) on the idea that they'll be able to build a new HQ at Ansty, when they haven't even put in a proper application for it yet? I'm sure people will respond that they must have been given a nod and a wink...

    An arse with three cheeks? Should put that on as half time entertainment, it would add thousands to the gate.
