And this has led to KC giving some detail of the conditions. Seems all it was just an independent entity to look over the deal to ensure everything was above board. He's also said the rejection they got from Higgs was a 2 line letter with no explanation at all for the rejection.

Wasn't there claims that the salary cap was being ignored and the RFU wasn't taking action? They've even hated in Australia: http://www.foxsports.com.au/rugby/michael-cheika-criticises-london-wasps-over-their-handling-of-signing-kurtley-beale-from-waratahs/news-story/69da5dd6d35fe43607cf623e88026168

Look on twitter. You've got one person who is in a position where they would have seen what was happening saying one thing happened and the local paper basically jumping up and down saying no it didn't. He's stated he has documents showing it to be true. Same response from the paper.

He's the communications guy but he deals directly with Mowbray, Fisher, Anderson etc so likely has a good idea what is going on.

But is the same standard being applied to everyone or just when its a story that would put CCFC in a positive light?

I find this attitude frustrating. Do they apply this criteria to every negative story they run about the football club? He did similar yesterday saying Reid was wrong about the Butts when he first published it as someone at CRFC had denied it, if Fisher denies something they don't just accept it.

Posted a while back a load of posts I found on a rugby forum when I was looking for some details on Wasps history. It was all people saying we would be up in arms and wouldn't stand for it and that the locals wouldn't go to games. The city is a laughing stock for the way we have welcomed them...

Best part of todays play was getting a tweet read out on TMS

Kieran's twitter is great recently, think he's a bit demob happy! I'm not sure why Simon is so desperately trying to show Kieran to be wrong. If I was a journalist I'd be straight on the phone to him to get a report into the paper. It has become very very clear over the last couple of days...

Highlight the bit you want to quote and it will pop up a button to say reply. Click that and it adds it to the reply box at the bottom. You can do it on more than one post and it adds all the quotes for you.

True but it would be nice to have him still posting on here. The way he suddenly disappeared when it was revealed in court that the paper were making agreements with CCC to suppress stories to CCC and Wasps advantage wasn't great. Added to the fact the paper never even acknowledged what had been...

It would certainly make sense to at the very least make it very easy and cheap to convert at a later date.

From what I can gather its a done deal that this is being changed. The likes of Worcester and Leicester are apparently preparing to take legal action against Wasps and RFU.

Of course if the council hadn't decided to shut the existing sports centre, which I'm not convinced stacks up financially, there wouldn't be any need for a new pool at Higgs.

Something needs to be done or we'll end up back in Northampton or out of business completely. Surely now the fanbase will wake up and start to take some action.

Hope that press release doesn't start with the line "we welcome the news..."

Interesting line in the Observer

Not good news

And this is exactly the reason the way CCC conducted the sale was wrong. To maximise return for the taxpayer, and the charity, it should have been properly marketed by a specialist agency.

Erm, you were the one who kept saying we only had to ask Wasps!
