And SISU think they have a claim against the council. Using your logic the council should just pay up.

No idea, hence why I think it should be looked into further not written off as impossible on day one. If it works out at a net benefit to the club over x number of years against staying at the Ricoh why would our owners prefer to stay? Again, nobody has seen them hence throwing the idea out as...

That was when we first came back, we're talking about the drop off this season.

Exactly. If there's 30K every week at the Ricoh nobody is going to support moving to a 15K stadium. And Wasps won't want us to go so will offer us a much better deal. 7-10K at the Ricoh every week and its hard to object to moving to a smaller stadium.

No need to be obtuse. The point is the construction cost is not the same as the amount CCFC would need to finance.

What about 1992 - 2001?

I can't that's why I have repeatedly stated that the financial side has to stack up. What I am not doing is dismissing it out of hand.

Odd that the article didn't include the percentages as it seemed a pretty even split.

Based on what? A city centre stadium I would argue would be much better for supporters. Easy to get to, more local facilities etc. And as for the financial side unless you have seen the financial plan for both the Butts and whatever Wasps are offering for a long term deal how can you know which...

We were in 5th with only 2 losses in 7 when attendances dropped back to 11K

We all thought there was no chance we'd go to Northampton but we did.

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...
