We did and the attendances crept up very slowly and dropped right back down as soon as we lost a game.

Funny how when SISU announced the season ticket refund scheme they got a load of stick as there was no way that many people would turn up. Now all of a sudden Wembley wouldn't be big enough for the ticket demands.

If only we did something like that, oh hang on we do. This is where we need the face palm emoji back!

Of course the preference would be for our own PL standard. But thats not an option. And the position we are in at the moment it is highly unlikely we will attract a new owner who can make it happen. So what do we do? Stay at the Ricoh under Wasps for the foreseeable future just hoping for the...

Why? Unless you think a new stadium is going to appear overnight then we will have several more years at the Ricoh. As a landlord that should mean we get consideration. If you're a landlord you don't ignore your tenants because they might move out in five years time. Why? Its not unusual in the...

I think that's a mindset people need to use. If there was a realistic option on the table, or even in the distance, that could match people PL ambitions then great but there isn't. We have to make the best choice out of the options available to us, just wishing there was a better option doesn't...

Nope :wacky:

But the point people seem to be missing is we're not in a great position currently. People are banging on about what happens when we get in the PL but staying at the Ricoh we have virtually no chance of getting in the PL. If, when all the options are examined, the Butts is the best option to put...

Can't have it both ways. Either things stay as they are and 15K will be fine or we have success and its full every week. I haven't seen the budget for the new stadium so I'm not sure where you've pulled tens and tens of millions from. The council only put £10m in for the Ricoh, less than 10% of...

The Wasps flags were put up by ACL, they have now replaced them with MTV flags. Strange that they seem keen to promote events at the Ricoh but not CCFC matches there.

Has anyone said they have no aspiration to be in the PL? Maybe we have no option that allows for that.

Why is it more likely we will move up the leagues staying at the Ricoh if it is shown a move to the Butts is the better option financially? Nobody is suggesting doing it on a wing and a prayer but there are a small group on here who wish to dismiss the idea out of hand and sign up as Wasps...

Why can't you? If a 15K stadium wth the possibility to expanding to 25K is more financially viable for the club moving forward then as far as I'm concerned we should move. If, and given our attendance history its a big if, we reach a point where the ground is sold out every week and people...

To be honest I'd move to a 15K stadium and worry about it later. Would be better off owning a stadium, at least in part, and selling it out every week than half filling a stadium we don't own. Would certainly make us a lot more attractive to new owners.

Not to sure what the attendance against Crewe has to do with the capacity at Highfield Road. If we're playing that game the club said they could have sold the stadium out multiple times over so should we build a 65K stadium just in case? If you look at the Football League attendance report we...

About 50 years ago maybe. 23,489 once the kop went and the new East Stand went in.

Its amazing that some of these players manage to keep getting employed at a decent level.

Technically this was done before the sale to Wasps however I would be amazed if it wasn't part of the sale process. Personally think it was just a PR move. Wasps and CCC would have been given a much harder time if they had sold the stadium while we were in Northampton.

Brilliant, so we can believe every word coming from Wasps, who repeatedly lied to their fans. How do you know what deal they want us to stay on. For all we know they want to put the rent back up to previous levels and want us to stay to cover the cost of their bond issue.
