    Facts are not always nice. I am hinting that Wasps got in early, paid into the kitty and presented themselves in a good light. We didn't.

    No one says it is ok. It is reality, but not Ok. The situation is not hard to understand.

    City of Culture Bid

    The council say the relationship is broken. There is no trust between the parties. The parties being CCC and SISU. Nothing to do with them trying to marginalise CCFC. They are not talking to each other. Until this JR is dead and buried it will remain that way. After that is the time to start...

    You are appalled that we think that that bad relationships may have an influence on decisions or that money may also have played a role in decision making?

    It was a combination of constant CCFC bad news and money IMO.

    Well, I assumed that Coventry were also playing.... didn't think it was necessary to point it out ;-) But, sorry if some misunderstood.

    i said the cash helped. Repeatedly. Their crowds were not falling when they got involved. I haven't made it it over this season. I have 2 businesses to run. I gain my information on CCFC from you guys and cannot say much about performance etc when I haven't seen it. Last televised game that I...

    Pity about that. Why do you think they prefer Wasps Rugby to CCFC?

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    The negativity is to do with Brexit. We still have different views on what it is and the government is under pressure- particularly from some of it’s own members who wish for no deal. We are supposedly sailing into the sunset. You would think that at least we would know in which direction.

    As I said, we are talking too much about Wasps. You are annoyed, I'm saying that is the way it is. It annoys me, but I accept is as it is and am more interested in other things, such as the stadium. What's desparation? You know my opinion. We, CCFC, are largely to blame for our own demise. The...

    My family were weavers, watchmakers, carworkers and although I am in another country my background stays with me. That includes following city in my youth. It is part of my culture and my "heritage". My daughter is brought in a different country, but I try to get her over as often as I can and...

    Wasps have invested more and control the Ricoh. We are doing something - or happy to be backing it. But, noone knows what. Fisher is in my opinion more linked than, say , Joy or Dermot, or the Wasps people. He has an interest in the club and follows it. Which is what I said. I think Coventry...

    No, I am saying is that is what was on the cards. Not just because of the cheque book, although that undoubtedly helped. My opinion is not that it is Wasps fault. They did what they had to. We could have done less financially, but more with our history. One reason we didn’t is because we are...

    Wait for the appeal of the appeal of the bid decision before you start counting your chickens... I think that will be in 2025.

    City of Culture Bid

    No, but..... the argument to CCFC was that they should do something. The council told my group that they needed to do more things internationally. They said that would help with the bid. They would welcome any ideas from the Kiel side. I told City that Wasps were going to be in the limelight...

    The thought behind my interest was to get something positive going... the council had said they wanted to be more international. I thought a visit as part of the 70 years city friendship would get attention. Politically Kiel were up for it and it would be difficult not for our council not...

    No, but the people who ultimately have the most say are.

    I didn’t mention money in my points apart from my sarcasm. I mentioned relationships and court cases.

    Pointing out that Wasps aren’t the only ones from outside who are involved. My issue is not with Wasps being involved. We know how that happened. My issue is that we are not involved. We should be, but the owners are not interested in Coventry or Coventry‘s bid. It would probably be different if...
