    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    Exactly, we had 30K there in the JPT regional final and people were queuing for hours when we had Chelsea in the cup, doesn't mean they turn up every week. In fact as a more accurate comparison if we had got promoted this year and were playing Leicester City next season you can be sure there...

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    On cue the Wasps non-existent PR machine springs into action. Yes its very telling that such a large number turned out. Compare it the size of other clubs major protests - for example Portsmouth big protest which numbered approx 20 people, in fact look on here before where people were worried...

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    That is highly likely to be the case but for me going to watch Wasps condones what has taken place. 8000 people marched through the streets of our city against teams playing away form their home, the CT campaigned against teams playing away from their home. Now the same people, and most...

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    I totally understand people hating SISU, on the vast majority of points I agree with the 'SISU haters'. But I can't get a handle on why this is stopping them seeing what is happening, or has happened. With SISU one day, hopefully, they will be gone. The damage they have done can be reversed...

    Have We Been Closed Down Then?

    I can't believe this thread has lasted this long. It is very clear that the original article had an intention to, being charitable, mislead. As has been established this sort of situation is fairly common yet you hardly see a mention of it when it happens elsewhere let alone talk of winding up...

    If We Hadn't Got Rid of Richardson....

    950K or 1.2m is both missing the point. the rent at the Ricoh was, according to PWKH based on the rent when we left HR. When we left being the key words there as at that point the rent had shot up as we were being charged a penalty for moving out later than originally planned and delaying the...

    Ward speaks

    I can see him being able to play at a higher level next season but equally if he's happy here and Spurs and happy with how he's being looked after and developed then who knows.

    Mowbray - Difficult at the Ricoh

    Can't really be offended by it can we, he's spot on there.

    Mowbray - Difficult at the Ricoh

    Does seem that way. Small crowd and its hard because there's no atmosphere, big crowd and its hard because they're under pressure. Maybe we should play it at Sixfields :D was it just coincidence that our best home form for years occurred there?

    Dion Dublin in Coventry

    Absolute legend. Hucks and Dion was my 'era' I guess when I lived locally and went to every home game as many away games as I could. I was both furious and devastated when he left but anyone I've talked to since that has any kind of 'inside info' for lack of a better term insists he was done...

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    Someone on my Twitter feed retweeted the press release from Wasps this morning. I did notice that within minutes it was on the CT website, as the lead story no less. Compare that to how long, 4 or 5 days I think, it took to get the story that SP had reached an agreement with SISU and we weren't...

    Mowbray - Difficult at the Ricoh

    Maybe the CT could do an article with all the phone numbers and links to buy tickets in it :thinking about:

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    Andy Gibb came in when Wasps took over ACL as the new MD. It was stated to be the first step of a management shake up.

    Probably but you'd expect Marriott to buy directly from DeVere if there was to be a change. Doubt it will be much more than a rebrand so in reality not much will be changing.

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    This is absolutely nothing to do with Wasps, what a load of spin! Given the lead times involved it would appear this a result of ACL bucking their ideas up after we buggered off to Sixfields. Of course since then the person responsible for this upturn has been replaced with a former Wasps...

    How much have we actually improved under TM?

    There's been an improvement for sure. What I've liked is the way he's spoken about the team, he's quickly picked up on things and is happy to let it be known when things aren't good. Of course talking a good game and putting things into practice are two different things. Lets see what happens...

    About to be banned from Saturdays math

    By 5pm on Saturday there might be a lot more people wishing they'd been banned!

    The low down on ARVO

    People do seem to be very trusting of Wasps and think whatever we ask for we will get. Not sure the evidence so far supports that. Since they've been here we've been moved to a smaller changing room, lost use of the warm up area, not been given anywhere to sell merchandise (which the club claim...

    The low down on ARVO

    Well that doesn't really answer the question does it. How is renting at £1m a year with zero revenue access (Grendel's example) better than building a new stadium? I'm not understanding why people are eager to dismiss the idea of a new stadium out of hand when even the independent experts the...
