    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    Sixfields was never going to permanent, in what world does it make sense to permanently move to a location where only 1-2k turn up?

    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    When the our deal is finished does anyone actually think the club will still have priority on fixtures? The club have been tossed aside into the flowing rapids here

    Wasps owner Derek Richardson explains Coventry move and rejects "franchise" tag

    So by my reckoning we've got to make another 5 mill, taking our total revenue to around 15 million. Which would take our commercial revenue up to 7 million all without access to stadium revenues. Better get promoting them half an half Wasps/CCFC scarves.

    Wasps owner Derek Richardson explains Coventry move and rejects "franchise" tag

    If you assume 5 million was media revenue in line with the other clubs then that means 5.5 million approx. was from ticket sales and commercial revenue.

    Wasps owner Derek Richardson explains Coventry move and rejects "franchise" tag

    Has anyone actually seen our accounts from the championship relegation year considering they were filed about 12 months late? All I've seen is that our total revenue was approx 10.5 million, for all we know 5 million (or close) of that COULD have came from commercial revenues could it have not...

    Wasps owner Derek Richardson explains Coventry move and rejects "franchise" tag

    No way we'd average over 20k in the championship now, I'm not even convinced we'd beat our 15k when we got relegated.

    Wasps owner Derek Richardson explains Coventry move and rejects "franchise" tag

    That would be great if we get a billionaire prepared to bankroll a charge to the premier league in the way Bournemouth but those sort of things don't happen to us. Its absolutely SISUs fault that Wasps are here, had we never left then I'm sure they would have never arrived. The bitterness...

    More from Derek Richardson...

    Did you ask any CCFC related question about Wasps at the Ricoh? Did you ask if his move would negatively impact the clubs chances of buying into revenue streams, revenues we need to survive. When he inevitably tell us it doesn't or the move doesn't negatively impact CCFC did you pull him up on...

    The Old Five

    Yea someone said it was because we scored 5 most weeks (or alot of the time) under Jimmy Hill when we were rising through the divisions under him.

    Safety ? Long way to go yet.

    one point will be enough if its off Crewe or Crawley I think

    Wasps owner Derek Richardson explains Coventry move and rejects "franchise" tag

    I suspect in an ideal world italia would have everyone who speaks out against Wasps banned from the Ricoh and just have himself and his merry men supporting Cov in becoming a scavenger and beggar to Wasps table scraps, he'd have us signed up to a long term deal which entitles us to no revenues...

    Wasps owner Derek Richardson explains Coventry move and rejects "franchise" tag

    I just think thats the reality of where we are, as I said in respect of ever getting back to the top flight I have given up. That doesn't mean I've given up on the club though I've just lowered my expectation level accordingly in line with the situation we are in.

    Crewe tickets reduced to £10

    Fleetwood definitely weren't as I remember it was specifically brought up at the time, couldn't say on the others but I saw nothing from the opposition fans on other football forums I visit about it.

    Excuses For Not Going The Crewe Game Thread

    Can't afford it alongside my free Wasps ticket, sure it was free but I've got take £20 to spend at the Arena so can't go. Priorities and all that. Tried to buy a ticket for my 3 year old and got asked for a fiver, I told them to stuff it Couldn't work out how to order a ticket online so I gave up

    Price reduction : Guess the crowd for Crewe

    I'm thinking Crewe should bring a decent following now which will bump it up a little, 10-12k my prediction. People predicting over 15k seems a bit barmy

    Wasps owner Derek Richardson explains Coventry move and rejects "franchise" tag

    Why would I give up, I love football, I'm from Coventry, what reason would I have to give up? If everyone gave up because of that reason then Crewe, Walsall, Rochdale, Colchester, Port Vale, Scunthorpe, Notts County would have 0 attendances every week. Would you tell there fans to give up as...

    Wasps owner Derek Richardson explains Coventry move and rejects "franchise" tag

    How do you propose we get CCFC back to where we want them? And please do offer a better suggestion than lets make £5 million a year and have a go. Soon you will have to accept the inevitable conclusion that this, league one is now our level. Best we can hope for is a short stint in the...

    Wasps owner Derek Richardson explains Coventry move and rejects "franchise" tag

    Just another nail in the coffin to those who think Wasps will do anything that benefits CCFC. Lets not forget they tried to strongarm Wycombe Wanderers into selling Adams Park and building a new stadium they never wanted or needed.
