    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    I totally get the chief exec has a high level of autonomy from the councillors but I find it very hard to believe that Reeves is discussing using tens of millions of taxpayers money to bail out Wasps and nobody on the council knew anything about it. Surely before anything major even gets...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    something has seemed off about the Ashely thing from the start. a bit of a worry because the last thing we need is Sepalla and Ashley fighting with the club being damaged in the process

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Take out anything to do with CCFC, Wasps or the stadium and there's still numerous things that have gone on at the council while he has been chief exec that should have seen him lose his job.

    Surely if what Duggins says is even vaguely true then Reeves is out of a job

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Any chance that this will be the point they realise Richardson doesn't have some great love for Wasps and is just in it for himself.

    Makes me so mad when people walk dogs off lead. Don't care how well behaved your dog is only needs to be spooked once and that could be it.

    The annoying thing is there's an indoor stadium that holds 47K less than 2 miles away from the MCG. If you're staging a World Cup in rainy season would you not have that on standby for the final?

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Not really news to anyone but now official. Wasps netball done. Bet the side that got kicked out of the SuperLeague to make way for Wasps aren't too happy that they lost their own team for nothing.

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    Think the episodic stuff works really well for Star Wars. Sure we'll eventually get more films but I'm enjoying having an hour of new Star Wars most weeks of the year. Interestingly Disney Plus is now the home of Doctor Who outside the UK. With RTD back in charge, who has previous for spin off...

    If those 12 sell out more will be added. He did over 100 dates last time and the tour went on for well over a year. They'll just keep adding dates while they are selling out instantly. And if they don't just wait until a few days before, the price of the resale tickets will drop right down.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Wonder what percentage of those who purchased bonds were people with experience of investing who would understand this type of thing and what percentage were Wasps fans who believed the rubbish about being the biggest and richest club in the world and now have a big hole in their finances.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Not sure why we're going over all this again but there were 6 bidders weren't there and I seem to recall not all 6 were ever named but we know of Manhattan, Shapiro, Hopkins and SISU. SISU being the only ones who didn't want stadium ownership and therefore the councils preferred bidder.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The problem is the wrong people are earning the money and it's those same people, the ones at the top on big salaries, who are charged with implementing any cuts. They aren't going to turn round and say their own job isn't needed so you end up with cuts to the frontline workers.
