I think Wasps in Cov is a dead duck but the name carrying on in the RU circles will happen , like it or not they are a very big name in RU and reforming is a possibility probably a certainly, already been muted of a return to the London area think that’s more than a possibility.
A lot of what is happening and has happened re Wasps was put to me weeks ago by a so called itk. Took at the time with a pinch of salt but looks to be correct, I’m now interested in the sisu angle and looking forward to a happy xmas.
Well my take is Wasps in Coventry is dead, they will live on re-group I believe back in London already been suggested and there’s no smoke without fire as they say.
Our concentration now should focus 100% on how we get rid of sisu I think there is genuine interest in people acquiring ccfc it...
Just read a headline that there is talk of Wasps leaving Coventry and going back to London area merging with London Irish who are in the shit financially as well not sure if that means sharing a ground or what but I’d say it’s a pleasing headline.
Back in the 70s after home games Colin Stein, Tommy Hutchison and others spent large parts of Saturday night in the Devonshire Arms obviously drinking tea & coffee, Hutchison played professionally until his mid forties.
Rumour has it that we we signed Drinkell when we could of signed Niall Quinn.
At the time John Sillett was in for him, Nial Quinn or John Aldrich
Not the best in the transfer market was Sillett bless him.
I think a meeting of this Wasp issue was inevitable and perhaps we should not pre-judge it until we know more to be honest I can’t see any, if any financial input that can save the day for Wasps but there are issues we know of around the CBS and the football club.
As an add on killing two birds with one stone I went to the Manor House hospital that morning to visit my mum and next bed to her was Jimmy Greaves ma and low and behold in came Jimmy to visit her, a real gent.
