    Getting left behind.

    For all we know signings have been made but aren't being announced until the players are back in training and the social media photos can be taken.

    As the series was going on I started thinking why are they talking to people who are still dressed like they were in the commune. Couldn't believe it when the place was still going. What has to happen for it to be shut down!

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Even if it is for some sort of improvements at the stadium why should public money be used? Its a privately owned company, if they somehow managed to make millions in profit one year would they be handing it all over? Other businesses aren't getting handed millions on a regular basis. And lets...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    to be honest at the moment I'd take boring and vaguely competent.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    She's my MP, might fire off an email to ask how exactly she thinks the arena would cease to function if Wasps aren't handed more public money.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    will have to catch up on iplayer but good that it wasn't just a story on CWR that then disappeared. Street likes to think he's good at the PR game, he won't want to be seen as fronting something like this. Especially when it has the potential to backfire badly before the next election with...

    Contracts 2025/26

    that list for 2023 looks big but there's probably only one or two on there I'd be particularly concerned about losing and I would assume the club have already started the process with those they want to keep around. But does give us a lot of scope for improving the squad in the next year or...

    Just a quick question.......

    The debt seems to have been the problem since day one. If it was a problem back when it was a much smaller debt then you'd have to say servicing £40m is a non-starter. I would guess anyone who took on the stadium in the future would just buy the assets and not the debt and that will be a factor...

    Check yourselves

    The NHS is on its knees and while covid has contributed it wasn't in a healthy state before that. The system is too fragmented, different companies running different services and seemingly nobody ensuring all the parts work together. Worst one I had was pre-covid. Went to the docs and got told...

    Statue for George and John

    Will there be room? Got to make sure there's space for the statues of Joy and Tim.

    Statue for George and John

    I'd always assumed George dropped off the radar due to ill health, would be sad if he was frozen out of the club in his final years. Having said that any ill feeling should surely fall away now the guy is dead. Would anyone at the club / council seriously block fan efforts to celebrate those...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    I've wondered about this for a long time. Its one thing to have a finger in the air valuation when it comes to reporting to bondholders, its a whole other thing to persuade the likes of HSBC to accept such a valuation as security. Its not an unthinkable situation that the refinancing was on...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    You would expect who is responsible for maintenance to be explicitly defined. Its either Wasps or CCC and with such a long lease I'd expect it to be Wasps. If its the responsibility of CCC then it wouldn't be the case they just fob Wasps off to the WMCA, that makes no sense. Realistically...

    All purpose cricket thread

    looked into it as well but for the week worked out more expensive than I'd hoped. Being streamed for free on the ECB website for those who don't have Sky. You need to create a login but don't have to give card details or anything like that. https://www.ecb.co.uk

    Wasps downward spiral...

    There seems to be a large section of Wasps fans who have convinced themselves that everything was good until covid came along. Did they miss the huge losses every year and the need to sell off future profits to CVC.
