Got asked about Wasps netball the other day by a netball nut (yes they do exist) as they knew I was from Cov. She was saying there was a plan this year for the league to expand and two new teams to be added but that had already been sorted when Wasps pitched up. She said Wasps joining the...

SBK, do you really believe that someone who didn't even yet own Wasps was talking to CRFC about Wasps moving here and a merger of the two clubs but didn't at any point speak to the owners of the stadium they would be looking to use, or do you think he was planning to move Wasps to the Butts?

Guess it only matters if someone is serious about a takeover. Any new owner would want to move forward with no debt so it would be a buy the club for a £1 but pay off some of the debt. The key question is how much would be required.

You missed new user comes on, doesn't post about football, has a go at anyone who doesn't think CCC and Wasps are blameless.

And thats why they want us to sign up for a long term deal with no break clause. They can bang on about how little we bring in for Wasps but is very noticeable the naming rights still aren't sorted. How much is us staying worth on that kind of deal?

Its something like £6 paid by the NHS to the private companies for every £1 they spend on the NHS.

Jacob Rees-Mogg, the most unlikely Corbyn supporter ever, said similar when he was on HIGNFY. Basically that he didn't agree with him but he always gave a straight answer and stood up for what he believed was right.

If you're travelling from Cov I don't think the move will make that much difference to you ;)

Wasn't someone, think it might have been Rossborough, interviewed on CWR and said that he was approached by the current owner of Wasps before he'd even taken over about them moving to Coventry.

How about Vegas? Oakland Raiders look like they are moving to a beautiful new stadium there and they want a 'soccer' team there as well.

Sure its just coincidence that the plans for the Higgs have been split into two separate project even thought the councils new swimming pool plans oddly include rugby facilities. Also must be a coincidence that, at the point CCC asked Sport England to support a new pool, they stated there was no...

That would be the 2013/14 season then, how many games did we play at the Ricoh that season?

Think you're both talking about the same thing. There is indeed an existing lease that only allows for rugby to be played. That is being changed to allow for whatever plans CRFC come up with. It was as part of that change that CCC were going to remove the current restrictions but put in a...

Don't worry, italia's spoken with Wasps and its all part of a plan for them to buy the name and reform us in non league with 20K turning up to the Ricoh every week.

You're missing the point. If SISU argue, and the judge agrees, that the deal has been deliberately done in a way that circumvents regulations he may then rule it be considered in a different manner. Its not like we're saying Wasps purchased shares in ACL and then down the line negotiated a...

And that will be SISU's arguement. That CCC & Wasps were aware of what they were doing and the timeline was a deliberate ploy to avoid having to confirm to certain regulations. Come JR2 it will be down to a judge to decide.
