    They still need to sort out what's happening about the FFP fine they didn't pay before they're allowed in the Championship don't they?

    Maddison wanted by United and Spurs

    If there is genuine interest we should try and do a deal where we get him loaned back for a couple of seasons. There's no way he's walking straight into first team contention at a higher level so he'll be loaned out somewhere.

    Stadium Name Change ?

    Remember when SISU took a mortgage out on the training ground? People went mental. Wasps take out a huge loan against the Ricoh and its fantastic business.

    Stadium Name Change ?

    From what I've been told, by someone connected to ACL not someone connected to SISU, is that we asked for somewhere to use for storage so we could increase the merchandising and branding on match day and the response was that the Ricoh has no storage areas, something I find very hard to believe...

    Stadium Name Change ?

    According to Wasps they are, and so far it seems everything the club has asked Wasps for has either bee refused or overpriced.

    Jimmy's Statue

    I don't buy that argument really. If you visit somewhere and there is a statue if you didn't know who it was wouldn't your default behaviour be to treat it with respect?

    Stadium Name Change ?

    There's two ways of looking at this: 1) Wasps genuinely believe we are moving out, it is in their interest to be as gracious and accommodating as possible in the hope that we will then decide to stay resulting in more revenue for Wasps. 2) Wasps do not believe we are moving out, therefore they...

    Stadium Name Change ?

    I wouldn't object to a compromise to be honest but at the moment it seems Wasps, for all their talk of being understanding landlords, don't give a toss about us. It would not have been difficult to have the Wasps and CCFC logos be equal in size, to have CCFC alongside Wasps at the atrium...

    Election 2015

    Most countries that use PR have a minimum % threshold to block out the really extreme parties with very small support. The UKIP argument seems to be the new stick to beat down PR with but whatever you think of them is it fair that they have 13% of the vote and 1 seat? PR as a system would seem...

    Election 2015

    There has for a long team been a growing movement seeking electoral reform. I think the thing that has brought it into the spotlight in this particular election is the SNP and UKIP / Green vote. It gives an easily understandable example of the problem with FPTP.

    Election 2015

    This protest was, or at least started out, as a protest for electoral reform on the basis that less than 25% of the population voted for those who are now in power. As with many things a handful of idiots have taken the focus off the main message.

    Liverpool Interest In Callum Wilson

    Was going to say the same Tony, this thread is shaping up just like the one last season and we all know how that turned out. That said I'm not sure a move to Liverpool is best for him now, can't see him getting regular first team football. If he is that good stay at Bournemouth, or move to a...

    Club aims to raise £35m from bond

    Clearly if you're talking about US sports franchises you have to accept there is a risk they will move. Although it does tend to be failed expansion teams that move rather than those that have been established for many year. I imagine there would be uproar if they tried to move the Yankees from...

    Consistency

    Players that are consistent and don't make mistakes aren't going to be signing for teams in L1. The bigger issue is how often they are making mistakes and do they learn from them.

    Stadium Name Change ?

    So what you're seeking to confirm is that Wasps have well and truly ripped off the Council and Higgs Trust. Would have thought that would be the sort of thing you wouldn't want to draw attention to.
