    Signing announced! - Liam O'Brien

    Seems to me people are over complicating things. When Mowbray came in one of the things we praised was he insisted on total control of everything to do with the football side of things. Clearly something went very wrong with the recruitment last summer, on the face of it given what Mowbray said...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    So what's the solution? Do you suggest locking up or deporting all 1st / 2nd generation Brits? Or are we going off skin colour or some other sort of profiling? Its not like people need to travel overseas to become radicalised and even those that do how do you track them? They aren't boarding...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    Police have said its not terror related. Yaya Toure has give £100K to the fund for victims family, good on him.

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    Its been raised everywhere hasn't it not just Brum? Wonder if its based on any actual intelligence or just the fact that a couple of things have happened recently? Not sure how having the army outside Downing Street and Buckingham Palace is going to help. Not like they were places you could...

    Transfer Rumour #CARLBAKERDAY

    Wouldn't be unhappy if he came back but wouldn't be upset if he didn't either.

    32000 crowd

    Did you miss all the threads where the value of the club, the value of the assets Hoffman has bid for, and the offer it would take to get SISU to accept? There's been plenty of discussion on it. Not sure why you struggle so much with where Wasps traditional home is. From 1867 - 1923 they played...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    And that's the problem. Seems to be a lot of people today saying we should bomb them off the planet. How do you do that when its individuals all over the place?

    The only country where using a VPN is illegal is China. At worst you would be breaching the terms and conditions and have your account cancelled.

    Weird, wonder what's happened there then.

    General Election

    Was a mistake putting May out to justify the U-turn. The press conference was unbelievable, her just stood there shaking her head as the press asked basically the same question over and over. Made it pretty obvious why they've been keeping her away from anyone who might ask a non pre-approved...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    Very sad. Thoughts with all those affected. Sounds like a suicide bomber who walked in when they opened the doors for everyone to leave. Not sure how you stop this kind of thing. Its not big 9/11 style attacks being planned and coordinated. Its individuals. You can buy the materials anywhere...

    Any news on the Academy ?

    They're advertising a job at the academy on the club site. Basically driving people around, sorting kit out etc. Doesn't say where you'd be based but its at least an indication there will be an academy. As Wasps seem to be getting nowhere fast with their plans I suspect another season at Higgs...

    Website is a lot better, much cleaner design. Just need the club to get it up to date and then keep it up to date.

    Recruitment

    its certainly different to what we're used to. These days a lot of it is done online, there's a couple of systems you can subscribe to and the players / agents post up all their details, videos etc so you could get something up and running very quickly. Add in someone who knows L1 / L2 / non...

    32000 crowd

    In American sports, which are franchised based, they look at a minimum of 25 years as the embedding period as it takes that long to bring through the first generation of fans who have grown up with the club. Look how much rugby has changed in the last 25 years. Things could very easily be very...

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    That's the worry. They have no fan representation on the board now. There's a legacy board but that has very little, if any power. They have to approve moving from Fratton or changing from playing in blue. They also wanted a veto over changing the club crest but the new owner wouldn't have that.

    4th signing - Monday - Liam Kelly

    Obviously you shouldn't be pushing over ball boys but having more physical presence will do us good. Hopefully will give the likes of Stevenson and Thomas the space to play without being constantly kicked and fouled.
