    Election 2015

    Didn't know that. Hopefully he's going to take it easy, a 9 hour TV shift can't be ideal in those circumstances.

    Election 2015

    There's no way Nick Robinson is making it through to 7am, his voice is fucked already!

    Election 2015

    It can't be right surely? How could they possibly have won more seats than last time with the state the country is in?

    Wasps to pay back Ricoh Arena loan "within days"

    You can call it whatever you like its still debt and its debt that exists as Wasps don't have the money to pay upfront. Having only recently rolled into town you may not know that for most people the biggest concern around SISU gaining ownership of ACL was that they couldn't pay for it outright...

    Wasps to pay back Ricoh Arena loan "within days"

    Well they've just created a £35m debt, in large part to pay back loans from CCC, Richardson and Close. They have at least a further £10.3m of debt and the CT article also states they will need to take out more finance for the training ground. So that's at least £45.3m in debt plus whatever debt...

    20,000 tonight at Sheffield United

    Think the 15 - 20K range would be sustainable. To get above that we'd have to create a buzz with some decent signings and have a good start to the season. Get to easter and be in the play off positions and its not unimaginable we'd be touching 30K. I guess its the plus side of going downhill for...

    20,000 tonight at Sheffield United

    I agree with Tony, we'd sell out without reducing prices.

    Cranie and Bailey released from Barnsley

    Where we signed him from wasn't it?

    Club aims to raise £35m from bond

    The version of events that I've been told is that the reason SISU were CCC's favoured bidder was that they were the only bidder not insisting on ownership of the Ricoh.

    Club aims to raise £35m from bond

    The council could veto any sale of the Higgs share couldn't they?

    Wasps to pay back Ricoh Arena loan "within days"

    Christ Eastwood is an ever bigger bullshitter than Fisher, do these people really believe the rubbish they come out with? Interesting to see not only didn't they have the money to fund the move to the Ricoh they don't have the money for the training ground and will be hitting fans up for that...

    Season Tickets

    The other way might work better. First 100 season tickets are £50 next 100 are £100, next 100 are £150 etc. Get some momentum going with the sales, if you got to the start of June and had sold something like 5,000 it might start to snowball a bit. Obviously you have to be careful that whatever...

    Further Positive Talks Held

    I would imagine that if he wanted to meet with Joy that was only happening in London but Waggot isn't fussed about taking a trip up north.

    Meeting with new backroom staff

    Equally you could say what is the point spending loads on new players when we have no scouting information and might end up with a load of crap!

    Season Tickets

    To be honest I don't think we will. The per game cost was fairly low anyway. I think people who claimed to not be buying a season ticket due to the cost will now find another reason. I certainly don't think if we knocked another £100 off we would sell enough to cover that lost revenue. Look at...

    South Stand for home fans?

    If you read the article it says the person who died was not involved in the violence outside the ground and suffered a heart attack later in the evening. Now of course its tragic that he had a heart attack but I'm not sure you can place blame on the club and use it as a reason for such excessive...

    Meeting with new backroom staff

    Or maybe Mowbray thinks the budget he has been offered is enough to do the job with? We are told last season was a top 8 budget, if we have the same again then we should be at least pushing for a play off spot.

    Meeting with new backroom staff

    McFarlane will be hoping Pressley gets a new job soon as I can't see him being here much longer if Mowbray is bringing his own people in.

    Positive Talks

    The slightly worrying part is it then says he has to meet with Waggott. If he has say in the decision and Mowbray is basically saying he's useless then that might prove to be a problem.
