Wasn't the plan a 60 acre site including the stadium, training complex (incuding academy) and whatever else was going on there such as retail. I guess the training complex might be ditched or seperate if big enough sites aren't available. If we could have got hold of 50% of the Ricoh and built...

Tim is going to use his magic beans.

Has to be cashflow doesn't it? I doubt Fisher is ordering the shirts himself so I'd guess the manager of the shop doesn't have the cashflow to order stock in, things like replica kits probably have a minimum order we can't afford.

Didn't Rugby council originally responded to say they had spoken with the club? Is releasing locations of old sites we didn't get an attempt to prove something is happening or an attempt at misdirection? If we're all talking about sites that by Fishers own admission aren't going to be the new...

Do they still stop people watching training at Ryton. I know they had a fence put up (Boothroyd's idea) but if you wander in to take a look does anyone kick you out?

Was just about to post the same. Big difference between first day of the season in the sunshine full of optimism and a freezing day just after Xmas when we're heading into a relegation battle.

Why would Ricoh staff or employees of pubs and shops lose their jobs? Are you stating that if Wasps move back to London the Ricoh will close? As for the club shop how many people are we talking here? Leads to a question of what happened to the staff of Wasps previous club shop. Or are you...

Who would lose their job if Wasps move back to London?

I do indeed hope the move fails and Wasps move back to London. Similarly I hoped the move to Northampton would fail and we would have to return to Coventry. I'm not the one claiming Wasps moving halfway across the country irrespective of the damage it does to others is ethical.

Long before the talk of a new stadium or leaving the Ricoh there was talk of needing stadium ownership. Do you think if at that point a deal to purchase the stadium that was acceptable to SISU would have seen us move to Northampton or pursue a new ground? I love how Fisher is routinely a lier...

Interesting point, no mention of Warwick Uni or Bermuda Park, could those be the two sites still being pursued (with the disclaimer that most likely absolutely nothing is happening)?

So to be clear all this Wasps talk about the Coventry community is false? From how you are justifying the move to Coventry if and when attendances drop it will be absolutely fine for Wasps to up and move again.

Any why do we need to build a new stadium? Would there be any need to build a new stadium if we had been offered the sale of the Ricoh on similar terms to Wasps. Of course that wouldn't have happened as there is evidence to suggest CCC would not sell to CCFC in any circumstances. Can you link...

Let's move Man City down here. They even play in Sky Blue so we don't need to change the seats. Can't wait to get my season ticket.

So your view of ethical is that any amount of damage to other clubs is acceptable as long as it benefits Wasps?

This sort of thing can't be too hard for the local press to follow up on. You said this on this date, this is whats happened since, can you explain the discrepancy? Will probably be met with a load of BS but even that would be better than silence.

Surely they've already failed the ethical part by franchise the club halfway across the country. In the process making it near impossible for CCFC to become self sufficient. You actually quoted Richardson saying that without at least a part stake in a stadium self sufficiency is impossible so...

Not on twitter but I think they've just put out the major points and will release the minutes in the next few days.

Looking at Twitter Maton's role at the meeting seemed to be to inform the SCG that the Hollbrooks site he had suggested to Simon Gilbert recently was actually a non starter as there was no chance of getting planning permission so a lot of help that was :facepalm:

As depressing a thought as it is I suspect the only reason any of our players are here is a lack of a better option.
