They went bust in the recession. Lack of sponsorship essentially, by the end the coach was funding the team himself. There has been attempts to expand the professional league in this country but all the expansion teams they have tried to start up have gone bust before playing a game. Would...

The way they council fall over themselves to help them they'll probably rename the city. So what other local teams are they planning to screw over? What sports are there where we don't have an existing team? Pretty much sums them up when he talks about Wasps as a brand rather than a rugby club.

Oh dear, why on earth would you do something like this?

Seems people's minds are already made up. Find it very odd that Aaron Phillips, who was at best OK, got a bigger response when he came on than our own new signing.

I think that still holds true in a way. Thanks in large part to the BBC and C4 via the license fee we tend to make shows they wouldn't get made elsewhere. They are prepared to take a risk. Would things like The Mighty Boosh, Toast, League of Gentlemen get made anywhere else?

Decent ratings for both. Wouldn't be surprised if they both go to series, think Porridge has more potential for a full series. Surely we can't have a prime time BBC schedule in 2017 with Open All Hours, Porridge and Are You Being Served?

If they can run the club as self sustaining there is no benefit to them in selling, they may as well hang on to it and hope that a miracle happens and someone either makes them a silly offer or somehow we get into the PL and they can cash out.

That's the problem isn't it really, same with the revival of Open All Hours. He was so good that no matter what you do you can't really fill that gap.

So we can't make changes to our team to preserve the integrity of the competition but we're playing a youth team. Makes sense.

Derek is brilliant. I'm pretty sure those that slagged it off and complained about the character of Derek didn't bother watching it. One minute you're laughing your head of the next you're in tears.

Looks like there was a preview screening of a new episode at a film & TV fest last night. Quick check of twitter and those that were there saying it was excellent.

Didn't mind Are You Being Served as a one off but I hope they avoid the temptation of bringing it back full time. Pretty sure that will be the plan with most of these. Quite liked Porridge. Was a good idea to make it Fletch's grandson and not try to just remake in the way they did AYBS. Nice...

Inside No 9 is brilliant. Believe a new series has been filmed.

What makes you think that? Off the top of my head look at what happened when Kilbane had a go back or Reda went to a Sheff Wed game or Maddision tweeted back to fans calling him a snake. That would indicate to me it would be reported on.

Yes I would, history shows that would be the case. Not saying I agree with it, if people are giving it out they should be prepared to take it but why is the response different when its a Wasps player?

That may very well be the case but he's a professional sportsman at a public event representing his club, he shouldn't be responding like that. If it was one of our players who had done it there would be outrage and it would be all over the Telegraph.

Anything in either paper about the official launch at the Shrewsbury game or the kit amnesty?

Do you know what was said to him to prompt that response?

Just shows how much we're being ripped off. Yet again the Ricoh ignoring all tweets about the cost of parking.

It was raining, wanted to stay under the roof!
