    The protest

    There's a huge difference. SISU couldn't care less about negative publicity, upsetting the fans or the club in general. That's not the same with Wasps. They seem very sensitive to negative publicity, don't want their fans upset and, even if its not their top priority, want Wasps to be at least...

    The protest

    And who made the protest outside the council house. I can find no mention of that anywhere online, did it even happen?

    VAR tonight

    Google parallax angles. Comes up in ice hockey, they have cameras on the goal line and above but you can have a puck that clearly looks in on TV but from directly above or directly in line hasn't crossed the goal line. In practice you're more likely to get it right with a camera than the human...

    Emiliano Sala (Cardiff Player) on board missing plane

    If they aren't paying maybe they did have insurance, or at least not to cover something like this. Not a nice thing to have to dispute but he was a Cardiff player so can't see how they can get out of paying.

    Wanting your team to lose

    I’d quite happily lose a meaningless end of season match if it meant Villa being relegated or stopping them being promoted. Apart from that I guess if you were in a competition with a group stage and finishing 2nd offered an easier route forward you might be tempted. Would probably just end up...

    Is this whole thing a Haskell Mk2?

    If someone will pay up for it, doubt she'd just hand it over.

    Nobody is saying the idea is current.

    Davies on the move

    If Willis goes we need to keep him, at least until a replacement comes in. If Willis stays and he doesn't want to stay and fight for a place then let him go. Don't want players here who don't want to be here and equally if a player would rather try elsewhere to get game time rather than sit on...

    Shame he had no money!

    Highfield Road 2

    They were showing the football league around the Butts because we rent an office there to sell tickets?

    The protest

    I was at the game and didn't know anything about a protest until I read about it on here. I then looked on here and social media for details and found nothing hence asking about it only to be met with non answers. Since then all I have found is one post on facebook with vague details of a...

    Highfield Road 2

    If you read all his statements you will see he chooses his words very carefully. Presumably Sharpe wanting nothing to do with the football club is why our ticket office is based there and why the football league were shown around.

    Is this whole thing a Haskell Mk2?

    As you say there's more than one side who can back down and we all know that SISU aren't going to suddenly stop the legals no matter how much we want them to. Given that the best point to apply pressure would appear to be Wasps but none of the fans groups, in particular the Trust, seem to want...

    Highfield Road 2

    I don't for a minute believe you're as naïve as you're making yourself out to be. It is obvious to anyone that having a council backing a major project is a much easier, not to mention quicker, route than having to battle them every step of the way.

    Is this whole thing a Haskell Mk2?

    Its worrying. There was calls for pressure on all sides and so far we've seen the trust and associates having a go at SISU, have a mutual back patting session with the council and writing to Wasps telling them they understand their position. That's not my definition of pressure on all sides.

    Is this whole thing a Haskell Mk2?

    The accounts will be prepared but they can't sign off with the business a going concern if there is nowhere to play next season. Therefore they would miss the FL deadline for filing and go in to a transfer embargo.

    Is this whole thing a Haskell Mk2?

    I would say there's more than a bit of a similarity, its very much following the same path. Interestingly at the same time this has started up I've seen several people trying to rewrite history and claim there was never an attempt to force an ownership change.

    Highfield Road 2

    As soon as there was talk of us moving to the Butts the council wanted to change the terms of the lease to forbid professional football being played there. Even the Telegraph managed to grasp that so I'm sure you must have noticed.

    Highfield Road 2

    The deadline is February, the extension will be to the football league chairman's meeting / holiday in Portugal which is when this season finishes. They won't extend it past that as they have to sort fixtures and who is playing in what division if we're thrown out.

    Highfield Road 2

    Bizarrely the people who were outraged with SISU doing this to ACL are perfectly fine with Wasps doing it to the football club.
