Another Wasps piece up on the CT now. They're looking to play on games on Saturdays having previously said they wouldn't do that so as not to impact CRFC. Now they just want to 'minimize impact' on CRFC whatever that means.

The £2m was the offer for Higgs share from memory. That wouldn't have been unencumbered, how would that have worked? If you buy 50% of a company that's exactly what you buy. It was much further down the line when they started banging on about unencumbered wasn't it?

I can imagine someone burning a factory or something down for insurance but a football stand during a match? Surely if he wanted it burnt down a mysterious fire during the close season would have done the trick.

I can see why at games where there's floodlight failure, such as the cup game at the Emirates, but not just in a regular game. The phone light seems to have replaced lighters being held up at gigs these days.

I've always assumed it was a reference to scoring 5.

I'm sure they said they weren't going to use Coventry in the name. They have such a deep affection for the city they were worried it would put people off!

In the real world if you wanted to ensure something happened after the sale you would have a legal agreement with penalties if it was breached, how much do you want to bet CCC didn't bother with that and just took Wasps at their word. If Wasps pay back the loan CCC have zero leverage over them...

It is my opinion you're right but all the available evidence suggests it is correct. We've seen comparative revenues from when we were last in the Championship, we've had independent experts on CWR and in the CT and the only club in a comparable situation to us, Stockport, have been in freefall...

I'd like to hear his answer to that if Simon gets an opportunity to ask it. If a rugby club at the top level with all the TV money and a salary cap competing with other teams that groundshare can't stay in business without 100% of 365 revenues how does he expect CCFC to stay in business when...

Spot on, there seems to be a big section of our fanbase who seem to think we just need to get rid of SISU and / or ask Wasps for all the revenues we need and everything will be sorted. Not going to happen. Unless something drastic happens, either with the whole of football or the Ricoh, we are...

They should scrap the lap of honour until we actually have a decent season, although no doubt some would moan if they did. They should just go over at the end of the game and clap the fans, bit more of an effort than they make at a usual game and then lets move on to next season. If they really...

There's some odd predictions on here. They'll be doing well to break through 10K

I'm looking forward to the front page piece on Wasps attendances being in freefall the game after Leicester!

Seriously? You're not happy now because of the order in which they announced the good things they were doing?

How long before someone complains that it doesn't apply to people who paid on the gate :D

Quick find something else to complain about before someone has to pay the club a compliment!

To be honest I don't think enough people care about CCFC anymore for it to be an issue. Put our situation into another city and you'd probably have a single issue candidate running and the other candidates being desperate to be seen to be supportive of the football club and against the Ricoh...

I still have nightmares from when we went to Charlton on the last day needing to win!

Not seen that one before, some interesting stuff in there. If you substituted Fisher and SISU into that article the forum would go into meltdown!

Saturday will I think largely depend on if Bristol are concentrating more on the match or celebrating but we can surely pick up at least 2 points from the last 2 games. My worst case scenario is the last game being winner stays up.
