Was thinking more of the ones where he said he didn't know if Wasps were building training facilities at Higgs.

What about the comments from the person in charge of Higgs?

FFS we're going to lose our academy, it's time to stop taking digs at SISU or Anderson and look at the bigger picture.

Look at the date.

So we have the original information from bawtryneal, then a request for his source. Source turns out to be himself as his company sponsors RUFC and is close to the owners and directors yet nobody at RUFC gave him the info? Are you saying he completely made it up?

Or as you seem to know you could just tell us.

And there we go. Knew there was some bad news on the way as some familiar faces have reappeared and the spin from the CCC / Higgs / CSF / Wasps side had started. Hmmm, so plans have been submitted but the person running the Higgs Centre doesn't know if it will impact the clubs academy or not...

Anyone would think they'd changed to red and white or something! It was always going to be a template kit. It's fine, if you don't like it don't buy it. We've got bigger things to worry about like not having players to wear the kit when we no longer have an academy.

I was wondering that as well!

Indeed it doesn't. Personally the conclusion I draw from reading the two sets of responses is that we want to stay but Higgs / CSF don't want us, possibly as it clashes with Wasps plans.

Q&A with Anderson in the CT http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/ccfc-academy-crisis-sky-blues-11415187 Would be a struggle to argue with anything he's said there, sure some will try!

Anderson says he had talks with CSF about the academy staying long term. Are you saying that the club was deliberately misled and a decision to remove the required facilities had already been taken at that point?

Through the removal of facilities.

With sky blues shorts and socks there's plenty of sky blue. Makes a nice change.

SISU have been told to stop legal action before CCC will talk to them about moving to the Butts. That doesn't or at least shouldn't have any impact on CSF talking to CCFC.

Have the Telegraph gone early again? Nothing on the clubs social media. Looks decent to me.

They took over the Higgs Centre in March. They are also heavily involved in Engage (a scheme to promote rugby) and the City of Rugby (a scheme to promote rugby).

On one hand you've got someone on a forum claiming to have inside info. Now he may have been given that info and relayed it to us in good faith or he may have completely made it up, I have now idea. But when on the other side you have CCFC saying no approach, Mowbray saying nothing and...

Thats my point. Once again Wasps prioritised over CCFC. And while the Higgs may still be there with Wasps next door thats a long way from a new state of the art facility for the benefit of the community.

If you were a fan of the club with millions to spare you would have already tried to buy it. If you weren't a fan of the club but fancied owning a team we would be right at the bottom of the list.
