    Brexit/SISU

    Care to enlighten us? The application for Scotland to be heard in the appeal is an attempt to persuade them that all devolved parliaments get a vote on article 50. If that happens then every parliament needs to give their approval. Given you state members of those parliaments must vote in line...

    Hillary / US Election Thread

    Well its certainly going to be interesting to see him try and come good on the promises he made during his campaign. Off the top of my head: Build the wall Ban all Muslims Not accept refugees Deport 11 million immigrants "bomb the hell out of ISIS" Increase gun ownership replace Obamacare with...

    Giuliani for Attny General apparently and Palin being tipped for a cabinet role.

    Ricoh sponsorship

    A deal could be front loaded but the sponsor would want something in return so it would probably mean the total they are paying is lower. And of course you can only have the money once so if you have it up front you're just pushing the problem back 12 months.

    Hillary / US Election Thread

    The KKK endorsed him prior to the vote as well. So that's the KKK, Le Pen and Putin who support him :banghead:

    Will it be like the last time there was something else on where that had free parking and we had to pay £10

    Morecambe Tickets

    Can't imagine there will be many there. Hard to tempt people out in the cold at £15 a go when they can stay at home and watch England v Spain on TV

    Hillary / US Election Thread

    There's a polling station under lockdown at the moment after reports of a shooting. Trump has pretty much been telling his supporters to take a shot at Hillary if she wins.

    Wasps breach agreement with bondholders

    They didn't CCC sold their 50% of ACL to Wasps, Higgs sold their 50% of ACL to Wasps and CCC sold a 200 (or probably about 210 given its back up to 250) year lease extension for £1m. In what I imagine will be the focus of a future thrilling JR the sale of the lease extension was agreed in the...

    Brexit/SISU

    This is one I found interesting. Was always fun to ask leave voters which particular EU laws they were opposed to and see what response you got. And of course there's the Norway thing. Norway aren't part of the EU and were held up as a good way forward to us yet their countries law adopts...

    Wasps breach agreement with bondholders

    The valuation of £48.5m has never made much sense to me. Appreciate it is the value of the lease not of ACL but given the price Wasps paid for ACL and the fact adding 200 years to the lease was only worth £1m (and the original lease was something like £24m) its never sat right. I can't see how...

    Brexit/SISU

    There was a thing on the radio today saying a poll in the US had shown 42% of people intending to vote for Trump believe he will start a nuclear war! Why the hell are they voting for him then???

    Brexit/SISU

    The answer to all three is lots! Problem is its not that straightforward. That figure is just what we pay in - what we take out. It doesn't account for any economic impact of being members of the EU. That's where the real debate should have been.

    Wasps breach agreement with bondholders

    They should have to use a different valuer, that would be interesting.

    Brexit/SISU

    They're the same figures but they've done some rounding up and also included the aid we give via the EU however if we weren't in the EU we'd still give that aid, just directly not via the EU so I'm not sure you can really include that in the calculation.

    IS IT APRIL THE FIRST?

    BBC are getting shit now, probably from Daily Mail readers, for putting a poppy on the Cookie Monster. The RBL said they weren't fussed about it but apparently that's not good enough.
