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...

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...

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.

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

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?

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...

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...

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

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.

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...

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...

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

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...

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...

How? With Grendel's example it would be £1m a year for the next 250 years so £250m, for which we would get no revenue access. In what way is that better than building a new stadium where we get access to all revenues? It's all hypothetical of course but just shows again that all scenarios need...

I wasn't seriously suggesting we mount a campaign, more illustrating the fact that if our presence, at a rent of £100K, was essential to their plans it wouldn't take much to tip them over the edge.

There's not really a response that can be made to that as what you are saying is you would prefer to pay more for less!

You don't know that, it's impossible for anyone to know that. In your suggestion we would pay £12m for a 50% stake in a company with a debt of £14m that, from their last account, is struggling to make a profit. What you don't know is the cost of a new stadium and how the prop co would be set...
