Notice Wasps statement is nice and vague and doesn't actual address any of the specific issues such as the EFL directly informing them of a deadline.

CCFC: this is what happened, we have the evidence to back it up and are happy to release it CCC: nothing to do with us Wasps: that's not what happened but we won't let you release the evidence

Wasps statement stinks of BS. Realistically who else is involved in talks around us playing at the Ricoh? You've got the council as freeholders who say they aren't involved, Wasps themselves and the football club (who have said they are happy to drop the NDA).

Does intent become part of the equation here. We all know there's certain things you just don't say, like the n-word for example, so if people start throwing that around we all know what their intent is. But if Akinfenwa can describe himself as a water buffalo in a joke but then get offended...

Its happened before that as well. There was the time Chris Anderson was negotiating, Wasps and CCFC both quoted in the CT that everything was going brilliantly then Wasps walked away. There was another time when the club said they were going to announce details of an extension to cover the...

Not like its a difficult questions. Just needs a simple yes or no. And one of those answers would indicate there is something to hide.

Not sure how this has descended into the usual shitstorm. Seems pretty clear to me. Andy Goode, who has barely mentioned CCFC before, is suddenly claiming to be a fan, of course we all know he is employed by Wasps. He has claimed CCFC are suing Wasps and then claimed he has never said CCFC are...

For someone who is supposedly a fan there doesn't seem much mention of the club on this twitter timeline except when he mentions us while defending Wasps.

I would love this to be true, would be comical, but I think its a stretch. The fact is, and the beauty of this as a potential stadium location, is the uni needs the same infrastructure. Creates a big headache for the council if they want to make things difficult as the numbers visiting a stadium...

Fletcher joined ACL in 2004 and moved to us in 2006 leaving in 2008. Ken Taylor was council leader from 2004 to 2010 according to this https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/10297905

I think people need to realise that the fact the Uni was mentioned years ago doesn't necessarily mean they've been working on this solidly for years and taking it as some sort of indicator of how long it could potentially take. Just as likely it was one of a number of sites being looked at and...

Already had an ad pop up on Facebook for free tickets to the Rugby League World Cup (the competition in general not specifically the Ricoh game) which would suggest they aren't expecting demand for tickets to outstrip supply.

Think the original lease was 50 years and we’re 15 years into that.

What a thoroughly depressing read. Once again shows that the idea the councils attitude to the football club is down to SISU to be nonsense.

I think there's a loophole where you can have a temporary stand up for something like 30 days without planning permission. Although on a practical level if you're talking multiple stands for 15K you obviously wouldn't be able to keep taking them up and down to avoid getting planning permission.

Members are allowed in at Edgbaston next week for the Warwick v Worcester game. Limited numbers and seating restrictions to maintain social distancing. In all honesty looking at what they are asking of spectators I struggle to imagine it working at football...

With the bricks I would suggest the first thing to do is establish what is involved in removing them without causing damage. Pretty sure they're just faceplates so someone who knows what they're doing should be able to manage it. Then there's the question of what to do with them. On the basis...

They might count as British but they don't count as a top band :D

Its got to be soon, well overdue already.

Lets assume there is something to the story of a new ground at the university, with the uni also posting a statement there seems to be. Could we build a temporary ground there while the main ground is going through planning and being built? There's a fair bit of land up there, not entirely sure...
