    England v Scotland @ Ricoh

    That message doesn't seemed to have reached anyone that doesn't read the CT. That must be all the good publicity the council keep telling us the city gets from having Wasps here.

    Academy future, question

    That might not be right but I seem to remember when Wasps left and moved to Loftus Road the holding company, which owned Wasps and Loftus Road, purchased the training ground. Think the plan was to do it up and use it as their professional training base. Anyway Wasps ended up in financial...

    England v Scotland @ Ricoh

    Saw a couple of posts on my twitter timeline about a game tonight at the Ricoh. Turns out it England v Scotland in a rugby international. Surprisingly judging from the pictures on twitter its far from full and lot of people asking why the game is being played in Coventry and not a rugby city...

    Yes, they've remained there since the club was split in two.

    raises an interesting point. should this not be a free vote to allow MPs to vote in line with their constituents?

    Academy future, question

    Training ground in London is owned by Wasps FC so they can't sell that.

    Brexit/SISU

    33,946,026 didn't vote leave ;) Total mess, rushed into by Cameron without thinking through possible scenarios as he just assumed it would be an easy 'win' for remain.

    Academy future, question

    Great news if true. The less reliance we have on Wasps / CSF the better.

    Wasps finances 2016

    Awesome, a choice between a 150% increase or 400% increase. Its also a hugely misleading figure. The more relevant figure would be the net total amount paid to ACL by CCFC.

    Rochdale's Calvin Andrew banned for 12 games

    What on earth was he thinking, thats a proper run up and lamp him. Had something happened between the two before that?

    Wasps finances 2016

    Gone over this with him again as I didn't really get it first time round. Seems the way it works is that the bond has certain things guaranteed, so that the investors know their money is safe, and if they don't meet those conditions they've defaulted and in that scenario the bond owners have a...

    Tesco parking

    Also how long did you have to queue to get out of the car park? Lets say you were a genuine shopper and were there for under two hours but ended up with an 18 minute overstay queuing to get out of the car park because of football traffic how would that work? You wouldn't be able to produce a...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Interesting, why do you select them? They are both countries where polling (as reliable an indicator as we have) show support for EU membership has surged since the brexit vote.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    The difference between leave and remain was 2.5% of the eligible electorate. More people didn't vote than voted either leave or remain. Its a mandate of course but its certainly not any sort of landslide.

    Tesco parking

    Isn't there something about the fine having to be a reasonable amount in terms of 'losses' suffered by the landowner by you overstaying? Not sure I would class £100 for 18 mins as reasonable.

    Designated Survivor on Netflix

    Just gone to watch this weeks and there isn't one :mad: Kal Penn (who plays Seth) was on the Daily Show last night. Turns out he is a comedian who went into acting and when they had the writers strike a few years back he went to work at the White House for Obama.

    I'm not an expert but I'm pretty sure that's not going to improve his game.

    Well it certainly wouldn't do any harm. Although I've said before I struggle to think anyone other than a CCFC fan would purchase the club over any other club in the country. But if the CT are going to say formally putting the club on the market will attract more buyers then the same must apply...

    We'd all like new owners but lets not pretend it needs Joy to say the club is for sale for anyone interested to make an approach. Simon Gilbert was pushing the same line recently, that the club needed to be publically marketed as for sale in order to generate the most interest. Didn't answer...
