    And they wonder why a lot of people in the city took a disliking to them.

    Of course we will get shafted, we always do.

    Probably more like when we get told we're leaving no stone unturned in assembling the greatest squad in the history of football.

    Is anybody actually acting on behalf of the bondholders to enforce any of this? The trustee seems to have done fuck all up to now. Didn't the bond prospectus say something about the lease being security but others, ie the council, potentially having claim to it as well?

    Wasps legends and former owners sound exactly the type of group that would want to move them back to London. The Women's team have already made the move back, their version of the former players association never moved to Cov in the first place, all their events were in London. Surely nobody...

    From a business perspective what is being said about the NEC there is very true. The NEC Arena is also shutting shortly for an extended period to have the roof raised and a big capacity increase. Even just in terms of music events adding the hall to the Utility and Resorts World Arenas would...

    And remember it's not just locking us out. There's businesses based there including the hotel and casino that would have to shut as well as exhibitions scheduled for next week. Of course we don't know what will happen Monday and if the council, or anyone else really, will be in a position to do...

    Some of you have clearly never rented a house if you think landlords spring into action as soon as repairs are needed

    We wouldn't need to insure the building, that's someone else's problem. We'd need single event insurance and realistically that's just a case of speaking to the provider and ensuring cover continues on the current terms on a match by match basis.

    What on earth has happened to Sri Lanka today, have they completely forgotten how to bat.

    What would actually need paying for on a match day that we don't already pay for? We already pay everyone on the CCFC side obviously, and we pay for stewards and policing. We supply ground staff, although there is also ground staff employed by ACL I'm sure we could manage without them. The f&b...

    I think it very much depends on the circumstances. Being forced to play elsewhere accompanied by a statement saying they offered to pay costs over and above the rent to ensure games went ahead and are actively working to purchase the lease would be a very different situation to just having let...

    That's a shift in position from Duggins isn't it, albeit a subtle one. Seems to have gone from doing everything we can to nothing to do with us speak to the administrator. Bit tricky given as far as anyone is aware ACL isn't yet in administration.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Fucking hell, is that the best they can come up with. How many of the present cabinet served under Johnson or Truss.

    Complete guess on my part but I would imagine the first choice will be to flip the Blackburn, Wigan and QPR games to away games if at all possible.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Lets for a minute assume that when we signed that 10 year lease and announced the UoW stadium plan that the club was serious. Imagine that work started immediately, it wouldn't be open now so how would we be any better off? Its a complete red herring in this situation. We have a 10 year lease...

    If, as is being suggested by some, there is no interest in ACL and it is to be liquidated the lease will revert to the council won't it? So unless they're planning to close the place permanently / knock it down then either they're going to continue to run it themselves or attempt to sell the...
