Not really the case is it, there's been plenty of posts on here prior to Wasps turning up about how poor the marketing and PR is and how to make it better. No ones blaming Wasps for having PR, although it is a piss take when they claim they don't have a PR machine when they seem to be...

So now Cov fans are going to get the blame for anything negative that happens at Wasps games? If it was done at a Wasps game it was either done by a Wasps fan or a fan of whoever they were playing.

The thing is what we are saying about the ability of a new stadium to attract business compared to the Ricoh is the same as they would have been saying at the NEC when it was announced a conference centre was being built next to a motorway in Cov. Offer the right product at the right price and...

Think SISU need to clearly show financial projections for if we stay at the Ricoh as tenants against building a new ground. I had a look at Bournemouth's ground today and when they totally rebuilt it cost under £10m (after adjusting for inflation) for a 12K ground. If that's the sort of figure...

Would be interesting to know what happens in the event of ACL / Wasps administration or Wasps defaulting on a loan payment. No doubt we won't be told that as it will be declared confidential.

You know where we've all been going wrong, we've been concentrating on CCFC, we should forget them and start campaign to get Man Utd to move to Coventry.

Of course they could open any business but most football clubs aren't doing that so to compare how any offer from Wasps stacks up you would need to be able to compare it with other clubs.

I didn't mean what Compass paid, what was the amount Chris West offered to sell matchday revenues back to the club for?

What we really need to know is what levels of income other similar sized teams to us receive from their stadiums. The Ricoh is an exception with the exhibition halls etc. If we can get a deal that matches the revenues someone like Southampton got when in L1 that would increase in the...

I think SP must be using different criteria to judge the games than we are using. Either that or he's not paying attention! This division is so poor I think there will be enough teams worse than us this season that we won't go down but we've got a long way to go to be play off contenders.

If the council give it the OK then I guess there's nothing to stop SISU going ahead but it doesn't' mean it's right. If any local club, or anyone else for that matter, gives a valid reason that a ground for us shouldn't be built at any particular location then the right thing to do would be take...

What a horrible picture, sickening to see. Total lack of respect from whoever did that.

Of course we'd all like any new stadium, if it's not imaginary, to be in the city but many posters on here claim there is no potential site in the city so, if you believe we need our own stadium, what do you suggest we do? Can you seriously not see the difference between a side from London...

It means that at the moment if the rumoured site is genuine I would be fine with it. However if Nuneaton Town, or Bedworth United, were against it I would look at their reasoning and make a judgement based on the facts presented and therefore reserve my right to change my stance.

I've never had a brick in the head going to watch us play at Nuneaton, would they really get that worked up about it? If they did have objections then that would certainly be something to be considered and people would have to adjust their view accordingly.

Unfortunately living on the south coast it is hard for me to attend but I would say I have found the Trust reaction to the Wasps takeover of the Ricoh very very poor. And that's coming from someone who has repeatedly defended them in the past. Aside from one open letter to the council, which I...

You value a business based on it's current performance and future projections, the CCC line was consistently that this was all fantastic for ACL with or without CCFC in place. Therefore irrespective of what may or may not happen on the future if what CCC have told us is true they have sold it to...

Admittedly this is only going on pics off twitter but it looks like it's falling to pieces. If it's like this now what's it going to be like if there's a couple of games in quick succession and a few days rain?

I thought you could put money in as equity but not as a loan?

But your third way is the same as option 1. ACL was not doing as well as CCC were made out, doesn't matter if that was the fault of SISU or not CCC repeatedly claimed us not being there wasn't an issue and business was fine. On many occasions on here I suggested that the solution to the...
