    Appeal Dismissed

    After so many losses I can't imagine SISU can believe they'll win but equally if Wasps were confident SISU would lose they wouldn't need to apply pressure to drop the legals. That's what doesn't make sense to me. Yes its an annoyance to Wasps and there is a cost involved but the cost relative...

    It matters because Wasps are claiming in their statement that they can't agree a new deal. Not that they have taken a decision that they won't. Its a subtle but hugely important difference.

    You'd have to ask them but its hardly unusual in the business world. For example Samsung and Apple still do business with each despite being involved in numerous lawsuits against each other around the world since 2011.

    I have no desire to see Wasps fold. Would be happy to see them move back to London. The Brentford Community Stadium would be ideal, only just over a mile from where Wasps played from 1923-1996. That's the ground Wasps claim rugby was banned from, since shown to be false as in Feb 2017 Brentford...

    Jodi Jones Injury

    Agreed, don't think you can blame the medical staff, or lack of them. We're 2 weeks past the game and despite seeing specialists nobody is able to say what the injury is and how severe it is. The alternative is everytime a player goes down injured they get substituted 'just in case'.

    If somebody wants to do a deal with the club they'd speak to the club wouldn't they? I can't imagine for one minute Sepalla sorting out details of the retail contract with Just Sports or speaking to the company that does our programs.

    Kevin Hart / Oscars

    And as Gervais has said on twitter they nominated Mel Gibson last year. He's hardly got a history clear of controversy.

    Nothing on the trust website, think someone at Cov Mad is on the wind up. Even the trust couldn't come out with a statement that weak for a situation as serious this.

    Is that a joke? Shockingly bad from the Trust if that is genuine. After all the comments on here, suggestions of things that could be done to ensure we have a club next season to just use it as an excuse to have another pop at SISU, which won't even register with Sepalla, is a terrible response.

    Kevin Hart / Oscars

    What did he say, was it actually offensive or is it the usual over reaction? Odd place America. You get uproar over something like this and a change made within hours, go round shooting people and that's no problem.

    Jodi Jones Injury

    I know the vast majority of players are only in it for the money but why would you sign a contract with a club that might not exist by the start of next season?

    Pre Match Conference - Walsall

    Doesn't sound promising about Jones.

    To be fair the Wasps fans who were around prior to their move do seem more sympathetic but the newer fans seem quite happy to see CCFC go under. To keep something that has been going on for over 10 years as simple as possible its just the fact that everything has been tried against SISU and...

    Wasps don't react well to any hint of negative PR. If the council were to come out and say Wasps are breaking the assurances given during the sale process and they will be speaking them to ensure those assurances are met it would have a big impact.

    I'm not suggesting they go out and buy us Messi. I'm suggesting they make a few phone calls and get Wasps to uphold their promises made when buying the Ricoh. It costs the council nothing to put pressure on Wasps to ensure the football clubs continued existence. A football club that generates a...

    I'd say a good starting point would be ensuring we still have a football club. Phone call to Wasps telling them to stick to what was promised when they were sold the Ricoh would be a good start. It's not beyond the realms of possibility we could go up again this season. I would say Championship...

    Think the council would be serving the tax payer better by creating conditions that assist the club in getting back in to the Premier League: The total economic value to Wales of Swansea's first season in the Premier League is estimated at £58.6m £50.6m of the economic benefit was generated by...

    Most likely outcome for the club next season.

    Just read it, unbelievable. Should change their slogan to Fighting the Wasps Way. Fortunately it seems that he's just talking to himself, pretty much the only replies to his tweets are from his own personal account!

    Free flags! Being serious I find the response from Wasps supporters very disappointing. For a club that we are told was very close to going out of existence themselves they seem very happy to let their club send us into oblivion.

    I would doubt it. They are tied to the EFL Trust which is for EFL teams. They would lose that as well as the connection to the football club. Their mission statement is 'Use the reach and appeal of Coventry City Football Club to make a difference to the lives of people across Coventry and...
