    Wasps downward spiral...

    I had the misfortune to be on Coventry station (after a City away day)when I found myself next to 2 wasps fans who'd been on the lash all day. One was a decent bloke and had travelled from down south. Had a good chat with him. His mate, on the other hand, was one of those you quickly want to...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    They can have some success (grudgingly), but not in our city. The other factor that will hit Wasps (and a lot of other sporting clubs too) is inflation. Cost of travel to games will have rocketed, the outgoings on hotels, players' meals, energy costs at the CBS, their Henley training ground...

    If it's a grant - it'll be the latter.

    Boooooooo - wait until I've changed my avatar before posting stuff like this. I do have a Jamie Allen shirt that I'll dig out and replace it with so that I don't have to defend Max anymore ;) :cool:

    There you go, I've signed up and posted to see what happens?!? https://www.smallheathalliance.com/read.php?1,3216612

    Matt Godden

    Godden does play some decent balls into the box from out wide - pretty sure Gyok has got on the end of one or two when they've played together.

    Anybody else think we ought to be getting Blues fans on this case - why not for the Trillion, if you're going to help Wasps. Would think they'd soon pick this up and kick up a stink.

    Wasn't aware of that - surely auditors have to account for grant spend?

    Popped onto the Wasps forum a little while ago - and zilch. Probably somebody (the usual two) may have posted by now. Will have a look!

    I agree - although where do CCFC stand in terms of rent? If there are building costs (assuming Wasps don't get this grant). are we liable to pay more rent, contribute to costs? Don't know the answer - just curious. Of course, I'd love them to wither on the vine - and suspicious of Cov City...

    To be fair, even if they annoyingly got it, it would surely be tied to development You'd think it would be hard to offset existing costs against any grant. Certainly not playing budgets etc, At the very best I can only see it kicking the can down the road for a couple of seasons at best. Not...

    Gyökeres Bids

    When who goes, MR ? Gyokeres? Hamer? At some point they'll all leave. Just like Gerrard, Dalglish, Mane, Salah have and will leave Liverpool. We don't know the future. We might get Andy Thorne Mark 2, or we might get Jurgen Klopp Mark 2 to replace. We don't know.

    Has Gilbert said anything? Why is he leaving it so late in the day, if not?

    Transfer Shouts

    That makes no sense at all. He will have a budget. It will be up to him how he uses it. It may be his decision to use the budget on freebies and loans, and the wages that they incur, yet I can think of no rational budget plan that says none can be used to purchase a player, That is nonsensical...

    Transfer Shouts

    I think next season is a big one for the club, in terms of how we get on and maintaining the feelgood factor. The last few seasons - from the Checkatrade onwards, have seen a reengagement between club and fans. It is important that the positivity continues within the fanbase. Last season was one...

    Transfer Shouts

    That's the problem with signing players at our level. Any players coveted by more than one team will (unless they are a 'fan' of the club) head for the highest pay day. To get the most bang for your buck, you really need to latch on to lower league up and coming youngsters, who are off the...

    Transfer Shouts

    It's the salary bit - was on 90,000 euros a month at Bordeaux before returning to England, so on circa 20k a week at least?

    What the fuck has happened to England

    If Maddison played, Kane could stay in the centre forward position, as you'd have someone who would thread passes through to him.

    What the fuck has happened to England

    If we're playing France.. then being more pragmatic can be the way. It's that he is overcautious for me, when our strength is in having creative players.
