This sounds dire at the moment, seems like we're desperately hanging on.

You'll lose your quid if they don't!

To go and see one of Worcester's home games would be £13.

Wouldn't that all depend upon what deal was struck between us and ACL? If for example we got all matchday revenue all we'd lose compared to other teams would be non matchday revenue. How much are we talking about there? Most other clubs like have anything like the facilities at the Ricoh and...

Given that Birmingham would be the dominant partner how do you stop them putting everything in their favour and Coventry getting the worst of everything?

Assuming there was a suitable site I can't see what justification CCC could use for not fully supporting any application.

FA Cup Final, League Cup Final, JPT Final and Play off Final.

That's not right is it, haven't they been on sale for a while now?

While I wouldn't wish failure on fans of another team (well apart from Leicester and Villa) Wasps move being a spectacular failure would be the best possible news for us. Even more so if we can grab 50% now. If it all goes wrong they're going to need to get shot of ACL and then SISU might...

Apparently they're already knocking out cheap tickets to Ricoh staff, sure you'll be seeing the same at JLR. If they don't get a decent crowd for the first game its going to be a hell of job to get more people in after that. You only have to look at our first game back for that, once the buzz of...

Not excusing them in any way. Just saying if they've done it for Wasps they should do it for us and rather than waiting around to be asked someone from the clubs marketing department should be straight on the phone asking for it to happen. It's not that difficult to make it known if they get...

No we can't, we've to worry about being knocked out of the cup by Worcester!

Worth making a call, if CCC refuse they could 'accidentally' make sure everyone knows they have refused.

Just had a look on the Wasps forum to see what they were making of this bid and someone on there, no idea if they have genuine info or not, is stating that Wasps business plan allows for 50% ownership. Interesting if true, maybe an indication they wouldn't object.

Would be nice to see us, Cov RFC and anything else going on in the city on there. Not really in the habit of checking the CCC website, is this a type of thing they've not done before? Someone in the marketing department needs to get on the phone and get us on there, maybe the Xmas promotion...

How well are the catchment areas actually enforced? What happens if someone from Cov went into Wasps academy, would anything actually happen?

I suspect they will stay as they are for a couple of years and then the RFU will decide everything needs to be reorganised and Coventry and surrounding areas will fall under Wasps.

Personally if I was part of Higgs the through of a partnership with SISU would put me off!

I assume the creditors will be SISU and their related companies, ACL and HMRC. I have no idea who is owned what. Isn't ACLs open to interpretation as it has to include compensation for early termination of the contract? So my question remains, can SISU just say to Appleton we'll give you the £X...

While that is probably correct the point is that won't be what they say publically. They will say we rejected that bid as there was no long term security and that would impact on their ability to develop the Ricoh long term, or something to that effect. SISU are giving them a ready made excuse...
