    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    As they aren't in admin shouldn't they be running as normal? Bit of a pisstake to turn round and say your event isn't going ahead unless you give us more money. Have they done the same to other events there this weekend, the casino, hotel etc?

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    A points deduction would be very harsh. This is completely out of our control. Sure there would come a point where the EFL are pushed too far but the WC break might come at a convenient time for us. Gives a few weeks to sort things out, even if its the worst case scenario of having to play games...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    What are the options on Monday. Presumably a further NOI is out of the equation so are we looking at a simple choice between admin & ACL continuing to operating while a buyer is found or immediate liquidation? If its liquidation doesn't that then revert everything back to the council who would...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Hopefully its just a case of paying for stewards etc, costs that would normally be passed on to us, and not much more on top of that. We simply don't have the money, or the owners, to cover keep making extra payments to play games.

    Interesting choice to use Gary Glitter as the soundtrack.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Sensible approach from the club in the circumstances. If something does happen and they hadn't looked into other options I'm sure there wouldn't be plenty of people on here ready to lay into them for not being prepared. Of course we all know the owners won't fund all this extra expenditure so...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Looking at the events happening next week there' s no signs of any concern or arrangements being made to move or postpone. There's exhibitors posting on social media that they're ready for events there at the start of next week. Obviously there's lots of unknowns but I don't think assuming the...

    multiple sources could just be the two posts online we already knew about. My neighbours runs a company that provides event services up there and as far as they are concerned everything is going ahead as usual.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    It would make no sense for Wasps to keep insisting there was no problem if they knew it was fucked and the CWG were paying to fix it. All it would have needed would have been a statement saying there was more damage than expected and the CWG are paying for the work required to bring it up to...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    What legal issues could the CWG have possibly had? They hired a venue, used the venue, returned the venue. Its not their responsibility to ensure the pitch is fit for professional football after their use. That's the reason other venues pulled out.

    Seems that after the government put the block on King Charles attending the COP27 summit Sunak has now pulled out. Good to see the new government taking climate change seriously.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Ricoh got it essentially for free because Wasps couldn't afford to take the signs down. Yet another thing that was denied at the time of course. I suspect that as with the Ericsson and Vodafone deals the CBS have actually paid very little.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    You don't really need the freehold if there's a 250 year lease available. Can anyone see the CBS still being here in 250 years. Would be well past the end of its expected life.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    IMO if SISU were to buy the stadium there's no way they're running it themselves. They will contract in someone to run the complex, they previously had talks with AEG which reached the point that AEG gave a presentation to the council. This is something the NEC Group do at other venues so I'd...

    Possibly not quite the defence they think it is

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Wonder if Ashley and Seppella's paths have ever crossed before. Unlikley but they both deal in buying up distressed businesses so you never know.

    Is that actually a rule or was it just some random steward that didn't like you

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    I know a few music venues that have had issues like this and they just get down the cash and carry and stock up on cans. Can't be that difficult to just get Dhillons in if needed.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    there's def concerns around SISU ending up owning the ground but on the positive side this could be the beginning of the end for them. get the council to stump up for any repairs needed, get the lease on the cheap, then sell the club and stadium off. that's probably the best return they'll...

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Is it a major problem unless you actually believe it? This is Sepallas chance, if she wants the stadium then make a move. If she doesn't then we need a longer term deal at the CBS and the hope would be that under totally new ownership a line could be drawn under all the shit that's gone on in...
