    Excuses For Not Going The Crewe Game Thread

    We should run a sweepstake on how many people take the time to phone up CWR tonight to say they're not going to go to the Crewe game. I'm going with 4.

    Wasps owner rules out allowing CCFC to have a stake in ACL as well as buying the...

    If this was they way we were going to go then we would also have to accept that we will be reliant on SISU to bankroll this, and in the unlikely event that they leave, we will be at the mercy of new owners faced with the same struggles, and expecting the same handouts. There is some amusement...

    Wasps owner rules out allowing CCFC to have a stake in ACL as well as buying the...

    Wasps are already a lot of the way there. They already play in the top division of domestic rugby and where down to 11th (out of 12!) you play in European competition of some sorts. Yet they still need to own a stadium and have access to 365 revenue. We are in the 3rd tier - if people can't see...

    PR battles

    The majority of fans think that a new stadium is a nonsense idea... and why wouldn't they when the club have produced very little evidence to the contrary. The reality is that to go forward we need it, and it was confirmed as such in these articles, and it was the argument that Wasps produced...

    PR battles

    I think people question (I certainly do at least) that when information is released by both clubs that one appears to be painted in a light that is positive and the other less so. In addition the statements from Wasps appear to lack any challenge from media outlets even when they contradict what...

    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    It was only ever promoted as a permanent move away from Ricoh. Not once was it promoted as a permanent move away from the city of Coventry.

    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    Well unless we've been playing home games in Narnia recently.. I would say that point is moot.

    Parking charge

    Did you take a pic of the signs? Sounds pretty dodgy to be fair - but there is a company called UKPS (UK Parking Services) that do that kind of thing. http://ukparkingservices.net/

    A permanent move away from the Ricoh is significantly different to a permanent move away from Coventry isn't it.

    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    No we never were going to get that. Saying that we have seen the impact that poor performance on attendances. If we had maintained our early season form and had been in the play-offs last season... would we have seen 4/5K at Sixfields in the final part of the season (plus a thousand on the hill)?

    That never happened. How can it be used as an argument to say that we were a franchise club?

    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    How is it about trusting the FL? CCFC left Coventry for 1 year. It was never a permanent move... not in the eyes of the FL, and evidently it never happened. The club were even told that the golden share was at risk of being revoked if they did not comply. Doesn't exactly point towards franchise...

    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    Whether you believe it or not, your decision not to go was your choice. But the fact is that when the club was granted the move to Northampton - it told the FL that they would return to Coventry and build a new stadium. It was never permanent in the eyes of the FL.. the ones who made the...

    Bournemouth Ground Share

    I believe they may have been referring to size... only caught the end of it in the car. It's a joke whatever the issue is. If they make it to the PL.. they have earnt the right to be there.. irrespective of whether the ground holds 1000 or a million.

    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    The statements said that the coming back to the Ricoh was not going to happen, and at that point they said a new stadium was going to happen. That was the proviso the FL agreed to (and a supposed £1m bond). It's only being dismissed now as 2 years down the line we've seen nothing. You're kind of...

    Coventry City never have been, and never will be a franchise club. To suggest or pretend otherwise is nonsense. Wasps are a franchise club now.... huge difference.

    Excuses For Not Going The Crewe Game Thread

    NOPM is a misnomer. If you go and watch CCFC away, pay to listen to them on FL player, buy merchandise, a TV licence or satellite subscription then NOPM itself is actually impossible.

    Wasps' milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard, and they're like 'it's better than yours'.
