I thought it was 96 as well. Not sure where I got that figure from to be honest.

They handed a 250 year lease to a rugby club whose position everyone knew was unsustainable. If nothing else that's huge incompetence. They then made plans to bail them out with our money until they got rumbled.

I just think it's inevitable and he will have an exit strategy that I don't see going much further than another few years. Of course, given the amount of dodgy owners there are in football, who he sells it to could be a worry.

I'm fairly sure they didn't get offered 250 years. Even wasps didn't initially . And I think the way it turned out just shows that the council made a complete arse of things. Though none of that really has anything to do with where we are now and your concerns about owning the stadium, which...

It's buzzing if you like vaping, gambling and a fresh trim.

Was a 250 year lease on offer to the club?

I don't doubt King has an exit strategy that will see him out of here in no more than 5 years. If he leaves using a better place than when he arrived, and at the moment I don't think it Can be disputed that that certainly looks to be on the cards, thenI don't see the problem.

In no way are we in the exact same position. We never owned the Arena then, we do now. And if you think the council never tried to fuck the football club over thenI don't know what to say. If you weren't convinced before they handed wasps a 250 year lease you definitely should have been afterwards.

The council? Surely they wouldn't be stupid enough to try and fuck the club over again

The thing is, when you're beholden to a 3rd party you don't need to have owners as stupid as sisu, you just need a landlord as cuntish as wasps. We had the double whammy of both. Our destiny is now firmly in our own hands.

The man is a grade A cretin.

Think probably winning the the L2 play offs and King taking over in 2022 were more important. Think on both occasions, particularly in L2, the club was on the brink. A lot more fanfare around yesterday and it was certainly momentous news and we definitely feel more like a proper club now.

I thought he played well yesterday but watching the hilights back I think he was evenbetter thanI realised. Was much better on the ball yesterday than last week (when I tbought he also had a good game). . He's definitely improving and his work rate can't be faulted. Carries on like the last 2...

I'm sure attempts to sign one are ongoing, hopefully they bear fruit

But he's played there, RB/RWB and midfield so for me he's more of a utility player even if that's his most favoured position. We really need another CB, but again, after yesterday's news, I won't get bent out of shape about it.

We've played home games in 4 different grounds in the last 12 years, it's been insane. So I can't see how anyone can see this as anything but brilliant news. Doesn't mean it won't be without issues, but there are no players I'd prefer to sign over buying the stadium. I think our current CB...

Trolls? Whether you agree with them or not, many of them are long term supporters who disagreed with decisions King made. No issue with you startinga divisive thread I'd that's how you feel, but hugely hypocritical of you to then get on your high horse when people start criticising Simms with...

£2.80?!

You seriously need me to explain?
