    Appeal Dismissed

    As I said - I care about sport in local area - and so yes I follow CCFC but I wouldn't call myself a fan as football is not my first sport Look mate if it bothers you that much delete the account - it is hardly going to upset me if Mr Nick doesn't want my comments on his board

    Appeal Dismissed

    Jeez - I care about sport around where I live and what Coventry and Warwickshire sports scene to thrive. I hate the fact that a football team with a rich history has its fate effectively controlled by someone from outside the town and limits its ability to thrive I hate the fact that Coventry...

    Appeal Dismissed

    Insider is reference to the job I do but sure! Nick I genuinely know little about Wasps other than the financial figures they announce, the fact that their rugby is pretty poor now and I really don't like them :) Auditors are now Mazars - so yes

    Appeal Dismissed

    Are you sure - I honestly don't know, just see his debt increasing year on year currently. Would have to see the accounts pre bond and post bond to try and see that. Presume that debt will keep growing as rugby is not a sport where you will find much profit, it is why a lot of clubs look at...

    Appeal Dismissed

    It is rife in rugby sadly, many clubs are owned by people on whom the clubs are reliant, its a strange market where other clubs in other countries are ran by unions who provide the finances, has pros and cons but typically they can't splash out on big names so argument is they fall behind. Some...

    Appeal Dismissed

    Apparently when he started he wasn't - when he took over he stressed he was a business man first - but that is not a great image to paint :)

    Ref suspended for doing rock, paper, scissors

    What a serious waste of time and effort! As you say there are far more pressing issues with the standard of officiating at all levels

    Appeal Dismissed

    TA! So now the intriguing thing is how is the Group structured. I imagine it will be in such a way that the odds of ACL being in that position would be slim. Wonder if DR has positioned it so that whilst rugby could fail his commercial interests would be safe - I seem to recall being told that...

    Appeal Dismissed

    Very quiet on the news front - as people say - the news are quick to jump in when Fisher and SISU mess up Ultimately it isn't quite doom and gloom yet for wasps as DR looks unlikely to stop funding any shortfalls but people have a right to know and get shown that the gamble to move isn't as...

    Appeal Dismissed

    Ultimately if Wasps as whole were to no longer receive funds from DR and were forced to cease trading it's assets would be sold off to pay for anyone indebted to the organisation. What it means for the lease I have no idea - are you sure that it is accurate that it would revert back? If that...

    Appeal Dismissed

    I am not intimate on Wasps finances - I know about as much as anyone here - so not a lot. However I am an auditor by trade in financial services so actually do understand a lot of the subject

    Coventry RFC Thread 18/19

    I see little value in the Premiership Development Cup an actually think it is rather pointless. I would rather see the A Leagues play in a cup with Championship as I am not sure many team in Championship Like the replacement to B&I Cup - one of them should be scrapped. That lack of a win away...

    ACL injuries

    ACL recovery is grim... speaking from experience. The surgery is the easy part. But then to build up your legs to be able to play sport again is the hard part, and even when it is strong enough trying to get match fit and make sure you don't push too hard is another challenge. Professionals...

    Appeal Dismissed

    All retail bonds are unsecured - it is in their nature. Sorry my previous statement was misleading and confusing. Should really have said that investors will look at the security behind the bond, in this case the Arena, simply because in worst case scenario will the sale of the asset cover all...

    Notts County in turmoil

    How often does spending silly really work at the lower levels? Even at the top Chelsea and Manchester City did not reap the expected rewards initially. The idea that you can spend big one year and not keep that level of investment but expect the same performance is absurd. It is crazy when you...

    Whatever happened with their Middle Eastern takeover - I seem to recall a few years ago they were brought out weren't they?

    Appeal Dismissed

    Think the biggest risk to Wasps is the majority stakeholder saying enough is enough and looks to sell the club, and then I am unsure who would want to take it on, having said that rugby is full of owners who will only ever lose money - Bath, Saracens, Wasps, Bristol as a start

    Having a decent season - real shame about how close some of these away losses are (granted I don't think they much care for the cup)
