Spot on, this is the flaw when people say Buddy and the club should have known the 7s would do this much damage, similar events have been held elsewhere without any issue with future events taking place. The problem is that the pitch was already old and tired, Wasps then agreed to multiple...

Was it not the regular groundstaff for the CWG? Didn't watch any of the rugby and wouldn't recognise the ground staff anyway but it was definitely the regular Edgbaston crew there who ensured everything was ready for the games that followed once the CWG had finished.

Getting the early work in for their next move

Is this your first season supporting us, surely you know by now to never suggest it couldn't get any worse.

Mentioned drop in pitches before but my question is can you buy them at short notice? I'm guessing there's not a load of fully grown football pitches sat around somewhere just in case they're needed. I would guess they're grown to order.

Even if you think its 100% Boddy's fault is getting rid of him now going to help? It won't be a quick recruitment process for a position like that unless you want a Ken Dulieu situation. So if he goes we're looking at months before there's a replacement, which means Fisher takes over in the...

Don't think that's the key issue really. Sure it needed replacing, but its a big leap from Wasps saying there's not a gap in the events schedule to relay the pitch to Wasps not doing basic maintenance and it being dangerous to play on for an extended amount of time. Its on the record from Vaughan.

Should give Man Utd a ring and see if they want to swap Moore for De Gea

Everyone I've spoken to that knows more about rugby than me says 7s matches shouldn't impact the pitch the way a regular game goes. Even if you ignore there are less players it is apparently played in a different style. But the bigger issue is these tournaments have been played elsewhere with...

missed that, hopefully that part will make it to iplayer or whatever they call the radio thing but am I reading that right, we've tried giving financial help to get the pitch sorted and Wasps have refused. I know Wasps fans will want to frame this as SISU always wanting to drag everyone into...

If we owned the ground I wouldn't be keen on paying for the basics like a pitch safe to play on, but when we rent it there's no way we should be raising money for something like that

Is it too late to abandon the game for heat

Its not just the red, its the constant yellows. Second most in the Championship last year I believe it was which means he spends half the game one tackle from a red and is always on the verge of a suspension. We've played two games this season, booked in the first, sent off in the second. And...

Wheels coming off here. Hamer is so frustrating, this should be something he can learn to stop doing and Robins must be talking to him about it so he's just ignoring it.

Is my memory failing. Moore wasn't like this last season before Wilson came in was he?

Was he on CWR? Did anyone think to ask him if there's a plan / timescale to sort this.

Was so busy watching the cricket didn't realise the game had started. Checked twitter, saw 2-0 and thought the worst. Maybe we should play every game away :D

Where's the income coming from if those games get called off one by one as there's no real plan from Wasps to resolve the pitch issues? Is your preference to move elsewhere?

What you prefer, we move to another ground? Or we wait until a couple of days before each game and get told its dangerous again? If Wasps can put forward a plan that will realistically resolve the issue in less time then brilliant but I'm not on board with a 'hope for the best' plan.

What it needs is an actual plan for how its going to be fixed and timescales. A whole new pitch can be done in a few weeks so the EFL should be sitting down with us and Wasps and asking what is being done and when they can guarantee the pitch will be ready. A whole new pitch can be laid in...
