He’s a money man - the money is in the premier league. The potential to make a huge sum of money is pairing us up with the stadium, and getting us into the premier league. there is no money in Rugby

Ashley’s primary goal is the Ricoh and us. I’d imagine he’d try and flog wasps to that other geezer and let them swan off to London, Worcester or the alxandra stadium they can poison there

I don’t see how Ashley wouldn’t be an upgrade? He knows the money is in the Prem. He’d get us there - would he spend to push us further? No - we’d basically be in the position we’re in now - just in the premier league. wasps would just be a side show, they’re a means to an end. He’d probably...

So on average they spent 15m a season on players under Ashley? id enjoy that summer

But he spent to get them to the premier league each time. I’m not saying he’ll get us top half of the prem. but we’d be happy yoyoing between the prem and championship

I’ll trump that with “sold debt free and became the richest club in the world”

I also like the realisation that nobody wants Wasps per se… they want the stadium 😂😂😂 all because we’re the real prize

When they get relegated they won’t be the biggest rugby club in Coventry

Guy on drunken wasps -now worried about Ashley because they’d be a side project and renting off CCFC…. if we take what they’ve been saying, surely they should just be happy and grateful that they’re allowed to rent off us.

I mean this season appears to be the most disconnected for years. I’m hopeful they’re in the “we’re fucking off - so we’re not spending another penny” stage

To me it looks like he’s getting all chips in play. Unfortunately that may include wasps as an add on. If the council are ok to assign the lease to him, then it deffo brings the club in play.

The media is suggesting he sees it as an in to get CCFC and back into football

People have bought into the Newcastle opinion - they’re a club who have a high delusion of grandeur, they’re like Liverpool fans without the illustrious history to back it up. he doesn’t spend any money is the general gist of it - they ignore the 40m spent on Joelinton and 20 odd on Saint...

Knowing our luck we’ll find ourselves homeless in League one again

Wasps will push over any deal that makes Derek Richardson the most money - they ain’t bothered about how wasps end. Im all up for the giant sport direct in the exhibition hall

This… and I’m sick of people pretending they wouldn’t. bring on the Middle East billions that being said - I’ll move to ignoring their presence. The reason I hate them is they have the control over my club and they shouldn’t be here… If someone bought both -they’d end up being second fiddle to us

😂 I mean if Ashley could get the stadium only and buy us - that’s always preferable. I feel like he’s mainly interested in the football club. The rugby team is just one of those shitty buy one get one free “buy a football club and stadium, get a rugby team free” like a billionaires DFS this

I’d love wasps to go under but I’d much rather have Ashley owning both than the current situation

I’d be happy with 35.4m spent on players 2bh
