Just because we haven't played them in recent years doesn't mean we should want them to stay up and win the cup!

Potentially could be something along those lines or the budget is tied in with us staying up. He talks like he's here long term which is the positive sign but you do have to wonder why if he intends to be here he's not under contract.

No the most recent bid. THe one Higgs rejected.

I would have thought submitting a bid for Higgs 50% of ACL would give an indication they were prepared to pay the same as Wasps.

I can't imagine Mowbray has come in thinking there's going to be a huge budget next season but he's talking like he intends to still be here so I guess he is happy with it. With pretty much everyone out of contract he will have a lot of scope to make the squad his own. If, and its a big if, we...

I'm sure we all expected Fisher to make a statement saying he was completely incompetent at his job and that Wasps had got exactly the deal he wanted and couldn't get!

3-1 to Bradford

Fisher said "this i just a slight increase in revenue position and a share of income only", this is clearly a long way from getting all the revenue generated by the club let alone 365 day revenues from the stadium.

Problem was CCC were claiming to be in a position of strength when they weren't. They were insistent that ACL was in great shape and was running at a profit and had no need for the club to be there as they would be profitable without us. Fisher said that wasn't correct and was ridiculed for...

Where have you got those timescales from? For all we know Wasps could pack up and go in a couple of years if its clear the figures aren't stacking up. There's lots of scenarios. In some ways that could lead to a positive outcome for us, but the downside is it leaves us in limbo. Remember ACL...

I'm not sure if I was after an expert Krasner would be the person I'd be talking to. He got Leeds relegated and very nearly took them completely out of existence! He says we shouldn't sell academy players yet sold all the decent Leeds players out from underneath Eddie Gray. Not to mention he...

Indeed but we don't have a benefactor to build a new ground and to all intents and purposes write off the cost of it. If SISU do actually build a new ground they will want a return on that investment.

Didn't Brighton have to play outside Brighton and then at that terrible athletics place for years until a rich benefactor came along and paid for a new ground to be built?

You make it sound like people are making wild claims. The available evidence such as previous Wasps accounts, previous ACL accounts, availability of free tickets etc makes it highly unlikely they are now making a profit. That's not anyone saying they won't make a profit in the future just that...

Think they use TicketMaster in which case that's going straight to them. The way it works is the ticket seller gets all the face value of the ticket and TM get the fees. If they wanted to have the tickets on there without any fees they'd get a nice bill from TM as someone has to pay them.

He's just been on SSN saying the two biggest problems are the lack of confidence and the state of the pitch.

Logon to the shop / ticketing on line, go to my account and then media preferences, sounds like you've not got a tick in the box to allow the club to email you.

Isn't this one of the games that was being pointed to as a huge game that would be a virtual sell out without the need for freebies? If anything the amount of free tickets is increasing. I can't believe this was Wasps plan starting out. Initially they only publicised free tickets for schools and...

To me if the FL have said x amount of debt must be written off then they need to step in here and take a look at what happens as it's just been shifted elsewhere. Of course they might just have said the debt must not exist in a particular company which as we can see is not a lot of use to anyone.

You would have thought so but as with everything else CCC have refused to answer and said it's confidential. Didn't someone post that Wasps were after investors and had prospectuses circulating in the City (as in the financial part of London, not at our games!).
