    RIP Richie Benaud

    Very sad. Think Blowers is now the last remaining voice from my youth, spent many many hours listening to the likes of Benaud and Johnston.

    Ward speaks

    Agreed. It doesn't really matter to Spurs what level he is playing at so long as they are happy with how he is being treated and the progress he is making. Having a manager like Mowbray will be a definite plus in trying to get a player like Ward back for next season. I'm sure they would be much...

    SISU's Big Chance

    What we don't know (well I don't know if it is known) is how much SISU want back. Have they already written off some of their investment. I'm not talking about what has been converted to shares or moved from one balance sheet to another but the figure someone needs to offer them to walk away...

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    Having slept on it I've changed my mind. Its not like us playing Man Utd and filling the ground. Its like us playing Man Utd and we only have the away end with the rest of the ground filled with Utd fans! Do find it coincidental that there's a small group of our fans who signed up to the forum...

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    They were designated Wasps home games on the fixture list, they just chose to play them elsewhere. Its like saying the matches at the start of this season we played at Sixfields weren't home games.

    Only if you're admitting that the actions of CCC, Higgs and Wasps has ensured we have zero chance of returning to the PL. Maybe we should buy Hillsborough and move to Sheffield, we'd get a great attendance once a year.

    So Wasps played Harlequins and Gloucester in the league at Adams Park as well as Twickenham last season did they?

    Which if anything is bad news for Wasps, they are far more likely to think Leicester are doing better than Wasps next season and go and watch them. Or even worse find something else that is now their new favourite thing. As has already been pointed out to you the Leicester game is a big...

    Again as I pointed out previously you are using semantics to claim this is the biggest league crowd. Wasps played many league games at Twickenham in front of much larger crowds. You are now comparing a league game that takes place every year to our only Cup Final appearance in our history!

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    I think if we are successful our attendances will rise as we have a history in the area and despite the current level of attendance there are many lapsed fans. You only have to look at the clamour for tickets for the first game back or the JPT area final, neither of which could be counted as big...

    Wasn't aware we'd played a league game at Wembley. Must have missed that, shame I would have liked to have gone.

    Not really no, at the time a lot of people were optimistic that we were one or two pieces away from a serious challenge for promotion to the PL.

    Hence my mention of semantics. The biggest attendance at a game so long as you don't count the games with a bigger attendance. :D

    Again stop treating everyone like idiots. I work with AEG so I know exactly how they do business. Actually exactly the same can be said of CCFC when we moved to the Ricoh, then the novelty wore off and attendances dropped. Hence why most people are saying give it 2 or 3 years and then see what...

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    For one game, as has already been said if we played Man Utd it would be the same. I don't think you're stupid so stop coming on a CCFC forum when you only want to post about how great Wasps are and preaching to everyone like they are complete idiots. Edit: Actually before you go maybe you could...

    Those hoping for WASPs demise

    In fact maybe Fisher should get them involved in the stadium build. Had a presentation from them recently about the VTB Arena and it looks incredible and fits into Fishers 60 acre site. Not sure SISU could come up with US$1.5b though. Hoping to blag a trip out there when its nearer completion or...

    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...

    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...

    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...
