    Olympic Sport You'd Like To Do ?

    The canoe slalom looks fun. At one of the old Winter Olympics sites in Canada you can have a go at bobsleigh. Would love to do that. Obviously you have a professional with you doing all the work but would still be good to do.

    Swimming pool...

    Also the type of pool in the new place in town is rarely profitable yet the council are planning to use the non-existent profit to cover the losses forecast on the pool at Higgs!

    This Academy bullshit !

    If, as seems highly likely, we have to leave Higgs for me the best bet is Warwick uni. Had a look at their facilities and their plans at the weekend and I don't think it would take too much to bring that up to standard. Plus there's a lot more uni owned land around where the existing and planned...

    Swimming pool...

    You have to laugh really. Taxpayers money being used to provide facilities for the franchise after all those posts on here about how its down to SISU and no one else to help our academy.

    Swimming pool...

    Odds on the gym being used by Wasps as well? Just as well we're making sure there's top facilities for the massively popular water polo.

    Swimming pool...

    But how much can a revamp cost? Lets be more realistic and look at a 50 year life span. That would mean the new facilities could cover 50 years running cost and have £22m left over for a refurb! Of course that's oversimplistic but are you confident the council have drilled down on the options...

    This Academy bullshit !

    I've just had a look at Wigans academy on Google Maps and its much bigger than Ryton.

    This Academy bullshit !

    How are you re-jigging at Ryton to fit anything in? We don't own the whole site just the lodge and two pitches. There's an extremely limited amount of land owned by the club that's not in use already.

    Norwich league cup Game

    If Norwich have agreed to it being a Tuesday then they will obviously be playing their reserves.

    Swimming pool...

    Now of course running costs are a bit misleading as the new facilities will also incur running costs but even if we ignore that the council are saying the cost for retaining Fairfax St is £730K a year. They are spending £36.7 on the replacement pool in the city centre, £16.9m at Higgs and £7.9m...

    Swimming pool...

    I can't believe anyone falls for the rubbish they put in their press releases. How can they go on about a Sports Village and community facilities when there will be a net loss in facilities available to the public. Wasps have already said their facilities will be, in the main, specialist and...

    Is this the last season at The Ricoh?

    Wouldn't be keen on A but it wouldn't stop me going. B or C for me. I could probably just about put up with B but no so sure I could with C. When they first turned up and there was talk of the Ricoh being 50/50 between us and Wasps I thought the ideal solution to the seat issue was for Wasps to...

    Anyone park in Tesco's ?

    Wouldn't bother me, I'd be at the match. They'd have a bloody long walk though.

    Anyone park in Tesco's ?

    Don't think it would technically but if you got on to the management of the centre and complained you got a ticket while you were in there shopping you might get somewhere. What do they do if someone is genuinely in there shopping for more than 2 hours?

    This Academy bullshit !

    Bit of googling and it seems their current academy is cat 3. Can see articles about them applying for cat 2 but nothing that says its been granted. There's also articles about them purchasing another site to move the academy and achieve a higher category. Looks like they purchased the site but...

    Anyone park in Tesco's ?

    If you're entering a contract because they have some terms written up on a board what happens if you have terms on your windscreen saying you haven't agreed to any contract?
