    Transfer Rumour January Transfer Rumours/Deals

    MR is being smart by stating the possibility of only one signing. It's easy to cause anxiety amongst the existing squad if they think they'll be a lot of movement. Secondly, with the number of players potentially being available including Godden, Allen, Pask, Jones [although I think he'll take...

    Back at the Ricoh in January

    MR has our team playing very attractive [if sometimes frustrating] football. If we did return to the Ricoh the pitch would have to be better than previous seasons, or the supposed "home advantage" would be negated. Alternatively, if the pitch is like previous season we could get Ady Boothroyd...

    Would I be correct in thinking that if the European Commission find that CCC undervalued the Ricoh AND the sale to Wasps was indirect state aid, then there is the possibility that CCC would be required to seek the outstanding balance from Wasps? Now there's a lot of "IF's" to this scenario, but...

    Sisu did a due diligence process when they acquired the club, so the rental agreement was obviously part of that. Like any business you should have undertaken a full risk assessment - clearly sisu got it wrong. That was not anyone else fault.

    This is interesting when projected against the fine that Saracens have incurred. If the disciplinary panel applied the same equation of a fine of 50p in the £, then they must have broken the salary cap by almost £11M? That is a serious level of cheating! If someone has more knowledge on this -...

    "If SISU never broke the rent agreement of about 1.2million a year we would have gone bust by now." Err - we did go bust & that was when we lost the option of buying 50% of the Ricoh.

    Godden injury

    This news is a potential bonus. We could have Godden & Max playing together before Xmas.

    The disciplinary process was managed by Sports Resolutions, who are a highly respected independent organisation & they normally use top barristers or judges to Chair these panels. I would be surprised if this decision is overturned

    Good result for Wasps at the weekend & it just got better today for them with Saracens being deducted 35 points and fines over £5m for breaking the pay cap for the past 3 years. I had wondered for sometime how Saracens afforded all those top internationals....& now we know. However, I still...

    Robins comments on Hiwula

    Imagine if clubs placed advertisements for players they wanted to sell. Our advert could read something like ...... “Strikers for sale - good runners (aimlessly) - low scoring record - available to gullible new owner”!

    Surely you must be concerned that the current wasps squad looks weak compared to the opposition? Losing to london Irish who would be considered the favourites for relegation is a clue.

    It’s not a day to play tippy tappy football. I’m worried the ball will get stuck in a puddle when we pass it across the back

    There's a lot of good players that have left & the replacements don't seem to be the same level.

    The local Wasps fans will at least have a local derby at the Butts to look forward to next season.

    I don't think you are correct on that. Consider the schedules for repayments to the bond holders at 6.5%, which is a ludicrously high rate, plus the purchase of the training ground and ongoing costs. Against reduced attendances and a team looking in terminal decline....the prospects for success...

    Both wasps & sisu are guilty of press releases about new facilities. I’m betting on wasps being in deep trouble by the end of the season. I reckon they are in the mix to get relegated. If that happens, then they are sure to go bust

    If we do go back to the Ricoh, we need to ensure the pitch is sorted out. As our current style of play doesn't;t suit the ploughed field that the Ricoh can look like.
