Both moved for money, one trying to make money for the team they own, one trying to lose money for the team they own and the stadium they don't, if you consider these reasons equal then there is no discussion to be had.

There is a 2 year + year (option) contract in place so there is no chance to be kicked out at the end of the season, unless sisu stop paying rent or something. I don't think we know if the option part of the 2 years is something either side can decide they don't want though but its kinda...

you've said this a couple of times, There is zero, zip, none whatsoever chance of the owners of wasps buying a premier league team and moving them to the Ricoh. You must be on the wind up. You know how much it would cost to sign a premier league team? when even the bottom club in the premier...

yes poor hard done to unfairly vilified sisu.

No need to appologise mate, I agree with all of that, we all need to try and be nicer to one another, have a good day.

That is all reasonable and I agree with alot of it, I've already posted that it's in wasps interests marketing wise to give out free tickets, it's good publicity for them to get a big crowd, not to mention the people there will have a better time and be more likely to return. That doesn't...

maybe if people actually listened to other peoples arguments rather than dismissing it out of hand as "but but but" and then a few days later repeating the same silly accusations or misrepresentations of peoples feelings. Then this forum would be a nicer place to be instead of heading towards...

over and over again the same misleading bollocks posted by the same people. Of course it was called long term marketing when it was in Coventry, when it was in northampton people were upset because they were trying to make the stadium empty by boycotting and sisu were attempting (assuming it...

Personally I believe the wasps have gotten a bargain, so the chance of there not being anyone willing to buy ACL for a £1 with the loan attached is tiny not to mention the fact that ACL not being able to pay their loan is tiny too with 2 sporting clubs there. If Wasps go bust the football club...

There is risk, there is always risk, but there isn't significant risk imo. First you need acl to go bust and wasps to go bust and ccfc to move out (which they won't be) or go bust (which we might) but then not be taken over by someone who wants the Ricoh (which we probably would be) and after...

why? surely the loan is secured and there would only be reason to accept pence in the pound if the value of the ricoh was less than that remaining on the loan. The fact it's just in essence been valued at 5.77m more than the loan means it should be a pretty safe bet.

I think it's pretty safe, The Ricoh has just been sold for 5.77mill with the loan in place and there were at least 2 bidders at that value. For the council not to get there money back they would need there to be no one willing to buy the Ricoh for £1 with the loan in place (a loan that would be...

if acl can't pay the loan ccc would lose out but they would be able to pursue acl for the money, forcing the ricoh to be sold and getting what they are owed from it if necessary. I dont see there is significant risk to the councils money. the judge has already ruled the loan was ok, who the...

They took half the loan with the first half and half the loan with the second half. really it's not accurate to say wasps took on the loan. They brought half of acl a company with a loan of 14mill, this loan remains in place, then they brought the other half of the same company and again the...

no it's not that simple with any team, what players did Notts County get rid of? was it their worst players? or their best (like us)? what wages and contract lengths were offered for the new signings, are their loans desperation loans or ones carefully picked to fix the squad, are they having to...

This is an extremely simplistic and inaccurate argument. What is Prestons wage bill? how many of their best players left last season and had to be replaced with no funds, have they had to fill their squad with kids and whatever loans they can get? or did they look at a couple of places they...

Sure, there is obviously not one right answer to motivating and getting the best out of people, every person needs a different thing too and even one person would benefit from different things at different times. While I know very little about football if I were manager I'd be supportive and...

It's hard to see how we are staying up if we sack him or he stays imo.

It's possible he believes this in which case you have to question his sanity. However I don't think he believes it, it's scientifically proven that positive feedback is in most cases more successful than negative feedback, there is even studies that show that players who receive positive...

The good thing about keeping a manager for a decent amount of time is he gets to build a squad, replace the few that aren't working, keep the ones that are, tweak and build and from that hopefully get success. When most your squad changes from one season to the next it's always going to be...
