    Match Thread Polite Notice (AKA Grendel, Nick & Orca's Argument Thread)

    In fairness mate, I think at least some if not all of those emails were in response to the PR battle that the Council/Wasps had started around the time that they'd pulled the plug on negotiations. I wouldn't swear to it, as I haven't got the timeline to hand, but I think there were more than a...

    Match Thread Polite Notice (AKA Grendel, Nick & Orca's Argument Thread)

    I think what you mean is this place is seen as extremely biased by anyone who struggles to blame parties beyond SISU for our plight. In itself of course, that's a meaningless statement. Whatever the argument about how representative it is, there are a significant proportion of dIe hard city...

    Tyler Walker deal done???

    As neat and tidy as Roland Nilsson's haircut. ISB, you've nailed it here mate. :)

    Gregor Robertson article in The Times today

    Only problem here, NW. is that the Trust don't seem to be holding other parties to account, their sole focus has been the owners pretty much from the time that the trust was reformed. Where has that got us? Every time there's a newspaper article and they go to the Trust for a quote, my heart...

    At the casino prices, three pints is about £75. :)

    Ask Neil

    That's pretty poor, especially after insisting on you jumping through a number of hoops. The people running the trust just don't seem to get it, do they. I can't see the trust achieving anything positive now - they're never going to be seen as honest arbiters by the owners, and even worse...

    On the upside, you've never had a cold since. :)

    Thomas to Barnsley

    He might have missed a few chances for sure, but he found those positions through determination and intelligence. Even if he didn't finish himself, he'd pull the defence around and get them worrying; in itself that makes chances for others. I think there's every chance he'll do pretty well...

    Che Adams

    Blimey mate, you know how to bring a bloke down. I'd pay good money to get to 5' 9". :)

    so wasps were involved ?

    Having been through redundancy more than once, it's horrible for anyone to lose their job. I hope it's not just the senior management who get a decent payoff and an easy switch into a new role, but I suspect that's how it will turn out. Which got me thinking, how much will it take out of the...

    Coventry Monopoly - SkyBluesTalk edition

    You can only land on or leave the Ricoh station on non match days. Unless you've got a Wasps flag. :)

    Snooping

    If you're on tape as talking about 'grabbing women by the pussy' then to me you've just admitted that you're a sex offender, or at the very least someone who'd have no problem with doing it. That wasn't a smear.. that was a fact. Indeed there are a lot of facts about Trump that he and his...

    Seppala Interview on Sky Sports News

    So in effect then, they're attempting to extort an indemnity based on the football club's position of weakness. Tie that together with an apparent interest in buying the club and it's hard to see Wasps as being any more trustworthy than SISU. Let's turn the question around: Would you want to...

    Seppala Interview on Sky Sports News

    Just to add to this, there will be no costs as such for Wasps to contend the investigation - it'll be the EC asking the Council to explain their process regarding the sale, and then a decision from the EC as to whether that complied with the law. No lawyers, no court, no legal fees for Wasps...

    Seppala Interview on Sky Sports News

    Wasps are, that's why they're asking for an indemnity.

    Seppala Interview on Sky Sports News

    Absolutely, and it's unlikely that SISU raised the complaint to benefit the good people of Coventry. That doesn't alter the point that Wasps have been arguing that the Ricoh deal was absolutely above board, whilst now simultaneously demanding that they are indemnified against the fact that it...

    Seppala Interview on Sky Sports News

    That certainly seems to be what SISU are claiming. As ever, from where we sit as fans it's very hard to see the truth. It's a bit like trying to follow a high ball from the back of the old West End! :) Either way though, indemnifying Wasps against Council malfeasance is none of our business...

    Duggins

    Couldn't agree less, I'm afraid. Doxxing is a hideous practice, which chills free speech. I'm entitled to hold my opinions and express them (within the bounds of the law) without worrying if a potential future employer or client might tie them to me at some point in the future. For example, my...
