The investor thing stinks of BS. The chap behind this was behind the events that got cancelled last year, with the acts ending up at Godiva. So he couldn't pull off a smaller indoor event with his promotions company going out of business. Then starts a new company and Wasps let him have the...

And this is before a new stadium opens in Birmingham for the Commonwealth games. Once that's there it will be come far harder to attract stadium acts to the Ricoh.

I'd rather go somewhere closer and just have one stand open than somewhere 50 miles away.

I still think Leicester Tigers is an option. No reason it has to be somewhere that's a current football stadium.

Probably be like last time and get moved to Godiva with the council handing over a chunk of taxpayer money to Wasps.

Joking aside this is piss poor for the venue and the city. Since Wasps took over multiple events have been cancelled. MTV Crashes Coventry was supposed to run for three years but moved elsewhere after one: Then the Stepback concert: Customers claim to be out of pocket after failed 80s concert...

And the entire Soundscape festival at the Ricoh is now cancelled. Hopefully this time the council haven't agreed to taxpayers footing the bill.

The Trust taking a coach load of fans up to the Ricoh to give a Wasps representative a round of applause will have them worried.

That's been suggested before. Even without the research its been suggested the Trust, or local media, ask questions of the council regarding the impact of the club leaving but its all ignored.

I can understand them not knowing things, although maybe not something as recent and directly related to their club as this. But their attitude is really strange. They disparage the likes of this forum while firing out false 'facts'.

They don't even attempt to hide it. They are quite openly SISU out above anything else, including the future of the club. Maybe they can arrange a sit in for 10 mins after the game on Saturday.

Sure there will be full coverage of this by the Telegraph and CWR.

Nobody says SISU are blameless. Why is it so hard to grasp that if someone says the council and / or Wasps share the blame it isn't saying SISU have done nothing wrong?

I can't imagine there's a huge number of fans who would go to Burton but not MK or vice versa. You don't need market research to tell you the closer the ground is, and easier to get to, the more people will go.

Hold the front page. That would mean SISU have recruited someone whose experience matches their requirements for the job.

I get why people don't want us to play out of Coventry but why the outrage now? its not like a statement has been released and everything has suddenly changed. The statement only says what everyone already knew.

Not that simple is it? Burton they just turn up and play. Go to Rugby and there's work needed which will also cost.

I don't get why people are so worked up about todays statement. This morning, before the statement, the Ricoh was the stated preferred option but Wasps were refusing to talk. The club were looking at groundshare options as a means for the club to continue to exist if Wasps maintain their...

That's a disgrace, especially the justification for not applying it. Nobody wants any team to get a points deduction but you have to apply the rules to everyone. At no point when we went into administration or exited without a CVA was there ever doubt over our 'ability to fulfil its obligations...
