    Doubt we'll ever find out but would love to know what happened at that meeting. Going into it the local media were reporting it would be a very tight vote and struggle to get through. There was then a meeting, with the bosses at Wasps there, where no public were allowed and no minutes or notes...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    so if you've got bonds you haven't got your money back and you now can't sell them. I would laugh but I suspect a lot of the bonds are held by fans rather than investors who can't afford to potentially lose this money.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    But if he's worried about that how does raising interest rates help? People don't have enough money to cover the essentials, how does raising the cost of their mortgage do anything other than create more calls for wage increases, exactly what he says would be a problem.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Is there not a difference between inflation because people are going mad spending on luxuries and inflation because the cost of the essentials is going thought the roof? I appreciate the end result is the same but if people can't afford food, heating etc just telling them they don't need more...

    tbh I've got issues with the way the council has been run in recent years past the Ricoh situation. But specific to the Ricoh just the simple fact of moving a club halfway across the country is enough for me. That's before you even get to the lies that were spun to make it seem acceptable and...

    Matt Fisher also out for the season with a fracture. At what point does the coaching need to be looked at, other sides don't seem to get this many injuries and we do seem to have a habit of trying to change peoples actions, you'd hope someone has looked to make sure these things aren't linked.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    So what happens if the due diligence throws something up, maybe something like the stadium being massively over valued as happened to Wasps at Loftus Road, the reason they ended up at Wycombe in the first place. Surely if due diligence is still being carried out there is a chance, no matter how...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    There was a documentary on the foreign office, think it was on the BBC, that covered Johnsons time and lets just say he didn't come out of it looking like someone you'd want to be reliant on or who you would consider a future PM.

    Can you just delay a payment that is due by weeks with no penalty?

    Weird how the computer system had no issue with removing the universal credit uplift or increasing tax.

    Qatar World Cup 2022

    it is but what did they think was going to happen staging it in Qatar. And people will still ignore things like this and happily attend.

    Spies of course being well known for their openness, sure they will all willingly sign up to this.

    The Jones Enigma

    I don't think we need to worry about this. We've kept him on the books for several years with multiple serious injuries. Can't see any player avoiding the club on the basis of the way Jones has been treated.

    Thank you Jordan Shipley

    The lazy thing was always weird to me. Robins has happily bombed out players who don't put the effort in and has shown no fear of getting rid of fan favourites. Never stacked up that he would keep Shipley around, and have him in the match day squad, if he was unfit and / or didn't put the effort in.

    The Jones Enigma

    On the face of it seems odd not have loaned him out this season given there was clearly not a plan to play him. Dragging him all round the country to sit on the bench and not play seems strange.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    it will almost certainly just be a normal day and they'll be paid off. don't think there's any reason they have to say how they're raised the finances but it will no doubt be some sort of loan / mortgage that won't be revealed until the relevant set of accounts are published. Would have thought...

    give me a chance to watch city every week

    its so dumb, there is literally no industry where this kind of attitude has led to anything other than lost revenue and devaluing your product when you do accept the inevitable and provide a legal service.

    They keep changing manager but nothing is improving. Think they need to clear out some of the stars who can't be bothered but would the fans accept a couple of years rebuilding with a young team, probably not.
