First and foremost a major concern of mine about the move as it did occur would still be the case, in that a full consultation should take place with those who could be negatively impacted such as CRFC and the Wasps fans having their say. If valid issues were raised then I would be against us...

Is that the same sort of different as us moving to Northampton being completely unacceptable but Wasps moving to Coventry being fine?

What benefit to CCFC? From what is being proposed the club gets a significant increase in matchday costs to enable IEC and ACL to profit. I would be surprised if it resulted in a single extra ticket being sold let alone enough to cover costs. It's a nice idea and of course adding to the...

Because what you're suggesting is CCFC expenditure for the benefit of IEC. Unless you think ACL are going to let us have the hall for free and covering the hire in costs of the entertainment. What you're doing is highlighting the problem of not owning your own ground.

Does this not highlight a difference between football and rugby fans. It seems to me rugby fans want / expect a day out. They aren't really that bothered who they are going to see play, just look at the number of Wasps fans on their forums that just said they would go and watch another team...

I can't see us staying up. We don't seem to have confidence or desire to turn things around. We've also got the problem that teams below us are picking up points. It doesn't look good and I don't think relegation will change things. SP will still be here, the player budget will be cut and we'll...

Did Wasps bring them in directly or did IEC bring them in?

SISU are more likley to be annoyed by protests at their office than by anything at a match. The best route would be to get coverage in the FT and highlight their bad investment.

Hence me saying it is best to assume it's not true. A quick call from the Telegraph to get confirmation from CCC and Higgs that Wasps have payed up and that's the end of it.

No idea but I can think of a couple of scenario's off the top of my head. 1) he is actually involved with someone in China and has persuaded them to put some money up or 2) Wasps have been looking for investment in the city (this has previously been reported but I can't remember if it was just...

Why is it so unbelievable? Sure it may be agent / paper talk but it's not unthinkable that top sides would be interested in a 22 year old who has scored 18 goals in 35 games at Championship level.

If he's acting as a middleman then his net worth is irrelevant isn’t it? I couldn't afford to buy CCFC but if I became best mates with a billionaire and persuaded him to fund a takeover of CCFC my net worth wouldn't increase but the takeover could still be funded couldn't it? There's every...

That's an easy one for Simon to sort out in the morning. Couple of quick phone calls and if everything has been paid I'm sure it will be confirmed by both organisations.

Unless Byng is working on behalf of SISU why would anyone wishing to purchase the club need to contact him? They could go direct to SISU. Particularly true for Wasps who already have a relationship with SISU.

Even loan players should be motivated. It's not like the signed players are supporters of the club or anything like that so loan or not it's still not a good thing to have on your CV.

Other teams have midweek games this week don't they. We could be in the bottom 4 before we play Utd next weekend.

They probably don't try and park the bus when they're losing.

4 points off the bottom of League One. Don't worry through SP and the CT think it's all terrific and we certainly shouldn't be booing the players or criticising them :facepalm:

Teams around us are starting to pick up points even when playing teams much higher up the league, very worrying. You'd be a fool to bet against us being in the relegation places in the next week or two.
