    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    I'm not going to bother waiting for everyone to get out of bed. Fook it. I'm not going to even bother waiting for any statement or announcement, I am just going to assume that any deal, if there is a deal, will be really good for Coventry City FC and I am obviously therefore going to back it...

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    Would be interested to know what would happen to people's views if any proposed deal promised to make both Coventry City and Wasps two of the biggest clubs in Europe in their respective sports and also promised to invest heavily in grassroots rugby for Cov. Would be very interested then to see...

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    Yes of course. I'm sure fans can be enticed to travel a 600 mile round trip for home games.

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    No wonder I haven't had to time to think let alone do anything else. Just checked and 74 posts I've made today and nearly all of them not my one line quips, but detailed, long replies. I think I have wasted about 9 hours on here today, looking at the times of my posts. And then you ask me if I...

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    To tell you the very honest truth, I have spent so long on here trying to defend my position, I haven't had time to do anything other than type on here. Wasted about 5 or 6 hours of my life, for what I thought was a very honest and well reasoned position. If I had, had time I would have checked...

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    But I know we wouldn't be happy. We ALL know that. We weren't happy moving 34 miles, so I know we wouldn't be happy to move to another country. there is a precedenty there. Surely you can see that? I know nothing about Wasps, or their fans or anything about club rugby. I do know we went to...

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    I tried to look on the internet to see what Wasps fans were thinking and couldn't find anything at all, so I didn't know how they felt. And how do we know if this deal would be so inticing that it might change people's minds. I simply do not know. I don't know what the deal is. We are all...

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    Sometimes people surprise you and it's happened before and will happen again. It wouldn't have totally surprised me if they were in favour. By the same token, I was very surprised that Cov rugby wouldn't be against a few games for Wasps here.

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    Nope. Seems like I'm not like you NW and don't just jump the gun and second guess and just assume. I would want to hear it first, just to be sure, but I wouldn't just assume it. I know nothing of Wasps, nothing about club rugby, it's mechanics, precedents, whether this had happened before...

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    You don't have to disagree with me. I have quite clearly and categorically said, if ANY of the 3 parties are opposed to the move then I am opposed to the move. I honestly think people are not listening to a single word I am saying. Seems people are disagreeing with me when I am saying exactly...

    Formation no better than Thorn's diamond

    Rather have someone willing to change though than someone completely intransigent. Now be very interested to see now if things go wrong whether SP will change it again or not.

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    Talking about it in Otis world, Torch. Saying what my stance is. NW keeps on comparing what I am saying to us going to the likes of Dublin, but that is totally incorrect. My stance is one of only if all sides agree. We would therefore never ever go to Dublin and would never ever go to Truro. Or...

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    Worry I can deal with. It's outrage before anything has even been said officially that I have a problem with. It's just rumour at the mo as to any proposal or deal.

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    And do you honestly believe, hand on heart, that we will be kicked out in 2 years? No way that the council would EVER agree to that and rubber stamp the deal. Not a cat in hell's chance.

    But we won't want to go to Truro so it wouldn't happen.

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    How can it be too late? The deal or proposal will be announced and we will find out about it. Lots of official bodies and councils to be involved. Of course we will find out before anything is passed. It will not be too late. That's just a tad paranoid and scaremongerish I think.

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    Please yourself, but I will simply not condemn anything just based on heresay and conjecture. I will patiently wait for the announcement of the deal and then wait for what all sides say on the matter. I'll be glad when this Umbridge Week comes to an end. :whistle: Or unless of course it's...

    Can you not at least wait and see if that is what the deal is?

    Cov RFC do NOT want a merger with Wasps

    Also I don't know why I have to keep repeating myself, but the way I think the above scenarios simply wouldn't happen. Wimbledon to MK? No. MK would be happy with it but Wimbledon wouldn't, so it wouldn't happen. Us going to Northampton? No, because we would be against it. It should ONLY, I...
