    By default Ticketmaster, and every other ticket seller I've dealt with for that matter, don't realise the money until after an event has taken place. The simple reason is if they event is postponed / cancelled they are the ones who have to pay the money back out and don't want to be chasing a...

    Club update

    Has there actually been a sensible offer for the club or just Hoffman with his pound? Its all well and good people saying sell the club, we all want them gone, but there needs to be someone who will buy it. Personally I'm not convinced if O'Hare had gone, which was clearly the original plan...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    I remember a report saying that one of the Wasps directors had turned up at a property development conference and described Wasps as a property development company which just happened to have a rugby club attached. Of course all Wasps supporters decided to ignore this as they prefer to believe...

    Club update

    People can complain but without someone willing to just throw money away what alternative strategy should they pursue? The only way they're going to make significant returns is promotion to the Prem and they simply aren't going to write the kind of cheques required for that. So we're, at best...

    Club update

    It says "Coventry City are not paying any additional funds on top of our rent agreement fee to fund the pitch improvements" which is what was suspected wasn't it? We'd already paid rent and we've now made further upfront payment which will be offset against future rent. Long term we don't pay...

    We moaned for years there was no communication now we're moaning because there is. No club is going to give you any answers other than the ones they want you to hear and if the questioning gets too aggressive they will just go silent again. Boddy isn't going to come out and say there is no new...

    Godden - Huddersfield

    Robins must be the fittest person at the club the amount of walking he does

    Wasps downward spiral...

    a serious proposal or is it a fan rumour type thing? think we all know Wasps wouldn't be interested in anything that didn't directly benefit themselves.

    Leeds/Reading Festival

    Went every year from 1992 to 2010 except one where I was out of the country (2000). The Sunday night was carnage for a few years after Woodstock 'inspired' people but seemed to have calmed down again. Not sure if its come back again because of the Woodstock documentary or if its sensationalist...

    Interesting Kit convo with head of Hummel design

    They are always very complimentary about us. Makes you wonder what other clubs are doing, don't they all want decent kits that sell well?

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Surely nobody in their right mind is sinking money into Wasps, and if by some miracle they've found someone to write a blank cheque wouldn't we be talking a takeover? What is more likely is that they've found someone willing to loan them the money they need. They questions then are will the...

    Dom Hyam - Blackburn bid ?

    Realistically what do people expect? We know they aren't putting money into that club, that's been the case for years so can't come as a shock to anyone. We have to sell to cover losses and on top of what you'd expect in a 'normal' season we've had weeks with no home game because the pitch is...

    New Kit !

    Nope you're not making it up. https://www.businessinsider.com/what-happens-to-super-bowl-losers-shirts-2014-1?r=US&IR=T Think the club ran a scheme to send old shirts somewhere for a while but given how much they now go for doubt anyone is donating them these days

    New Kit !

    Love it, although I feel 3 kits every year is taking the piss even if I can understand the business reasons for it. There was a piece on Sky Sports Cricket recently about the environmental damage of cricket and how they're working to offset it and one of the biggest issues flagged was multiple...

    Robins to Stoke?

    Is the Bet365 owner not putting money into them? Wouldn't have expected them to be that hard up.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    is it 75% approval of those who vote or 75% of the total bondholders as that would make a significant difference. From looking at that board a lot of people who use companies such as interactive investor won't even know this is happening so won't vote at all. Unless of course those companies...
