We don't. If there's a chance of a bidding war clubs make it known so they get best return. You arguing against your own point here as Wasps didn't pay a premium for a period of exclusivity.

Nobody else was ever given a chance to bid on the Ricoh with a 250 year lease. Given that we are told that Wasps were going bust imminently surely the council held all the cards in negotiations so why were they done in secret? How did that get the best return for the taxpayer?

What about SISU's offer for Higgs 50%

This can't be stressed enough. So many of the issues we've encountered have been down to years of cuts and underfunding.

Interesting comment from the Warwickshire cricket CEO regarding their season starting 1st August: now to be fair I've been to county games where you could literally have a block per spectator but one day and T20 games are a different matter. Wishful thinking or have they been advised of something?

Southampton v Man City on BBC breaks Premier League TV audience record A match where both teams have nothing to play for becomes the most watched match in PL history.
