Ricoh for me. The Butts is too small. Offer Wasps what it would cost to redevelop the Butts for a 50% share of the Ricoh.

Sunderland will lose the parachute payment next season. They won’t be able to retain the likes of Cattermole on 50k a week contracts. They will still have a top budget but will probably need a squad rebuild with the loss of parachute payments.

So SHITSU hit with costs as well. Let’s hope this is the end of the legals and we can go back to the good old days of talk about how great/shit our 1-11 is. Somehow I doubt it though.

Probably just renting it out. He will have a pad in leafy Lemington.

We had to have a lot, bat clear report, another report as we have neighbouring oak trees that are protected due to there age that the new foundation wouldn't interfere with their roots as well as all the normal structural engineer, architects plans etc. We also had to prove we could fit 5 cars...

Do you think the council will sell this prime site without seeing detailed plans? I never once mentioned planning permission! Numpty? Pot and kettle fella.

The council are/have been playing twats without a doubt but SISU have put in a couple of pages about a stadium build to the council which has been treated the contempt it deserves. I had an extension on my house and paperwork handed into the local council had to be 1\2 an inch thick before they...

I think it is the fact they park the bus and try to win on set pieces which we are uber pump at defending. We play better against teams that attack us. Also because our strikers need 3-4 chances each before 1 scores. Bright has made a difference to this since he arrived. Shame he wasn't here...

We were shit against teams in the bottom 6 last season as well. If we do miss out on the playoffs which looks likely now it will be because of this.

To be honest I don't care. I don't hate Sunderland and 99% of their fans don't hate us. Just the odd bitter few. Well done to Pompey, it's always nice to get a pot in the cupboard.

He was an appalling player. I never saw him play a decent game for us and used to groan at his selection if he popped up.

Talking of good left backs Kenny Sansom. Rolls Royce of a player.

He was dog shit. One of the worst players I have seen in a city shirt. He made Ryan Haynes look like Maldini. 3 years at the club and made 36 appearances. 1 particular game sticks in the mind away to Man City where he was to blame for all 3 Man City goals.

I agree I can't see Wasp/the council letting SISU get their hands on the stadium if Wasps go pop unless they are the highest bidder by a long way. I think they would rather it was housing than hand it over. What would it be worth to a developer? It's prime building land. Excellent road...

The more I think about it the more I smell bullshit. It's only going to take the police to object to it being stopped. Can't see them giving the nod if it's as people describe. Local residents are going to be up in arms. Sounds like another classic Fishface whopper.

Can see it now. We move to Rugby, JR3 is launched, Wasps last 3 or 4 years, go bankrupt, sell the Ricoh to the highest bidder which is a developer, it's knocked down and becomes a housing estate. Meanwhile the City are in Rugby..........

Chances are Bright will sign for mid to lower end Championship club on double or treble the wages we will pay. we might have a small sniff if we go up. Would love to see him stay but can't see it.

Massive fuck up from Burge, massive fuck up from Thomas. As bad as each other. I can't see either of them being regulars at a higher level than this. Thought Burge had really come on in the last year or so but now seems to be going backwards. Wonder if he has already signed for someone and...

It's looking less likely we will be at the Ricoh next year. Where would be a realistic option? League clubs within a reasonable distance using Northampton as a distance marker. Birmingham West Brom The Vile Wolves Walsall Northampton Burton Leicester Would any of them help us out of are we...

Is it costing Wasps in legal fees more than we are paying them? If it is why would they want us to stay? If the legals get dropped and we stay it's double bubble for them.
