We don't know who actually filed the complaint do we? Just that a complaint has been made.

WTF? If I'm reading that right Wasps are now saying that if they and / or the council are found to be in the wrong and there's a financial implication to that ruling the football club has to cover that?

He's been caught out shit stirring before hasn't he? Surely it wouldn't be St Andrews or the Butts at this stage. They'd know by now if the Butts was viable or not for next season.

How is the ball back in the court of CCFC's owners? There is nothing they can do to meet the conditions Wasps have now put it place, it is literally impossible.

I think there's a slight but significant difference. The judicial reviews are on the finer points of the law, the impression I get is that the EC investigation has wider scope.

That was for Higgs half so won't be covered by state aid.

He's on shaky ground there as he's thrown in questioning journalists with abuse. Nobody is going to condone abuse but surely questioning journalists is fair game. Especially when you're tweeting from a paper known to have had a cosy deal with the council in past to keep things out of the public eye.

You're in a dreamland if you think you're going to get people to move to something which is basically a more expensive but shitter version of what they already have. Give people a viable alternative, be it vehicles or public transport, that they can afford and you stand a chance.

They would have known this when they walked out of talks, there's every chance they knew it before talks started. This is just an excuse to hide behind and they've now put a requirement in place that is literally impossible for anyone to achieve.

Yep, £24m for the matchday revenues for the remainder of the 50 year lease yet people still thing CCFC and Wasps got equal treatment and the only reason we don't own the stadium is SISU.

Have a look at who was running the club at the time then have a look at whose companies got contracts to work on the Ricoh.

I reckon Gilbert pays Nick a license fee for lifting info from here but there's a 24 hour embargo in place.

If anything kicking us out will encourage SISU to look for more ways to go after Wasps and the council.

Hopefully the club will be a bit more pro-active this time in ensuring its as easy as possible for fans to attend. if not then the Trust should step in and fill that role.

The school run has got to be a factor. I went to school in the 80s (left in 92) and it was rare to see anyone dropped of in a car, seems to be the norm now. Look outside any school at opening / closing time and there's cars everywhere - complete chaos.

I'm in. Will be buying a season ticket no matter what. Even if the groundshare means I can't attend.

Exactly. Wasps stated their terms, they were met, Wasps changed the terms to something it is impossible to meet. The local media should be absolutely hammering them on that but I can't even see a mention of it. I find it hard to believe that Wasps have purchased a stadium deep in legal...

That's what concerns me about Hoffman. The council / Wasps / ACL seem very keen to get him in, what has he agreed to?

If Gilbert had anything about him he'd be all over this with Wasps. Pointing out this isn't legal action and isn't' against Wasps. Stating that SISU / CCFC have met the terms previously stated by Wasps and now Wasps have changed the terms. Why will nobody in our local media ask questions of...

How? There doesn't seem to be any way to do that. Once the complaint is made that's it, the EC decide if its worth pursing or not. And if they do decide its worth pursuing surely every taxpayer should be in favour of that as it means there are concerns regarding misuse of taxpayer money. Is...
