Of course. That’s why I think the wheels could come off the Wasps’ project very quickly, indeed. Relegation from the Prem would be a catastrophe and that league has a tendency to swallow the odd big team, like London Irish and Northampton Saints. Having thought about it, it could be a...

Wasps really aren’t in as strong a position as your average joe thinks. They are a one bad season away from a catastrophe. Their England internationals are leaving them, alongside a few other senior players. All of a sudden, the bumper crowds for big European rugby will wither away if they don’t...

Wasps aren’t in that strong of a position. On the field, results are getting worse and key players are wanting to leave, things could get worse next season. Off the field, they’re in debt, their losses are increasing and if attendances decrease because the team is doing badly — things could...

You’d hope so, everyone benefits from CCFC remaining at the RICOH in the short term.

Hahaha I think I’m too young to get the reference matey!

Frankly, I like the idea of building a up the Butts to about 12-15k at the minute. But, that’s only really suitable if we’re in L1, when really, we should be aiming for the Championship.

If we could downsize to a 17-23k stadium that would be good in the long term. But, again, we would’ve been far better off remaining at Highfield Road. If only we had a time machine!

We don’t trust our hedge fund, but we trust their hedge fund... If Wasps were to come out and say ‘we’ll negotiate, but we won’t actually agree to a long term lease until litigation is dropped’, I’d say that is more reasonable. Refusal to negotiate at all until litigation is dropped leaves in a...

Whilst I don’t really understand what SISU can realistically gain from winning its legal action. The premise that all will be fine on Wasps end is a bit of a misnomer because any future hypothetical conflict (even with new, hypothetical owners) we’ll be threatened with getting kicked out of the...

His role, as I see it, is to set our tempo. We’re trying to play a possession based game, and sometimes you need patience on the ball to feel out the defence. We’ve got attacking players like Thomas, Bright and Bayliss so Kelly isn’t there to be that attacking, creative spark. He distributes in...

In my view, Kelly is absolutely key to what we do in both attack and defence. If only he had the durability of Doyle!

What a sad state of affairs if the 'future' of Coventry City and Coventry RFC, two clubs founded in 1883 and 1874, is valued by the local council at 'four years'. A lot of the early debate into this SISU and Council debacle a lot of people assumed the Council genuinely had the club's best...

Everyone is guilty to an extent. Things were bad enough that Sisu was in a position to buy the club in the first place. With hindsight, leaving Highfield Road was probably the worst thing that has happened to this club.

Would love us to sneak in the playoffs, but we’re a bit too inconsistent. Could see us going on a winning streak, followed by a losing streak — pretty much the habit we’re in now.

Frankly, it was a brilliant result given the circumstances. When they scored first, we and my brother alike thought we were going to be battered. I also thought Shipley was not the right sub to make. This is why Robins’ is manager and not me.

Can't really disagree with that. Our kicking game was so successful against Ireland and France because they had a makeshift back 3. Wales have probably the best full back in the competition in Liam Williams. With big runners like Tuilagi and Vunipola, we needed to run more instead of kicking on...

We’re probably heading toward a general election if more Tories resign the whip, and there’s an indication more could follow.

7 MPs is hardly ‘a split’. Is anyone surprised a left wing party is eating itself up?

Calling Burge a ‘cheaper’ version of Westwood is hardly a compliment in my book. To call someone a ‘pound shop’ version of something is usually more of an insult. They are of simila archetypes. Yeah, I got Stockdale’s career past wrong, but the pertinent point was that Stockdale has been...

Burge makes some really good reaction saves and is a cheaper version of Westwood. Another goalkeeper who would make amazing saves but his weakness was commanding his box, which probably stopped him making it as a Premiership GK. unless Burge sorts that side of his game out, he’s probably not...
