Thought Wasps preferred a nice pitch because of the style of rugby they play? You keep banging the drum tho. Personally think you go on about them too much and hang out their arse more than what's healthy. SISU are bad, no doubt about it. Wasps are questionably worse. Certainly not any better.

Love it someone picks up on one thing, compares it to the wrong thing and turns it into a post.

If you check my posts I said Rugby could have been played on the original pitch and that Wasps seem to play better on a 4G pitch.

The first change of pitch was done for us and in fact it proved a problem for Rugby as it kept rolling up like a carpet.
The next pitch could have been 4G but was not considered because of us.

Let it stay open and let's see who keeps posting on it and resurrecting it.

It's your thread. You started it to push a fabled statement that Wasps were saying they were bigger than CCFC.
It's backfired as nobody said it and people are telling you it doesn't really matter, and why.

Wasps say there bigger than all rugby clubs in the world. Some statement that. If they think like that I imagine they think there bigger than a league one football club who are 'off radar'.

Wrong. They said they will become the richest club in the world. A big difference.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/32476299

Who said they were bigger than CCFC ? Certainly inferred on this thread but not backed up and followed blindly by the few.

In reality it does not matter. They are separate sports so you can do both !!
Don't forget watching Wasps is free every week as Grendel has told you !!

Richest infers the biggest. Three richest clubs in football? Man United, Real Madrid and Barcelona. Funnily enough also the 3 biggest. You know this but as Nick said keep the propaganda up, doing a sterling job. Imagine Eastwood is over the moon with your effort.

And that's it isn't it. That's why he does it. The lure of the wasps cash. That's all he's interested in.

That's why we need it open. So we know when the PR machine has been in touch with him and to expose the others who come into this thread and then vanish forever.

As I have previously mentioned, the franchise fans I work with are still pissed off.

I work in and live in the south so I am probably better qualified to comment as opposed to the plastics like you.

My effort on what?
I'm only debating with a few people on here. Most don't give a toss.

Wasps will just get on with what they need to do for their rugby club.
Nothing we do as a club will change their plan.
If we want to work with them they 'might' help us, if we don't (or appear we don't) then they won't.
At the end of the day there are mutual benefits if we want to take advantage of them.

Unless it suits, I thought you lived in Bedworth which is why you didn't support Cov Rugby as you have no affinity?

So why drop the court case? You said they would help us? All we had to do was drop court case and sign for 249 years and we can keep our seats etc? Are you now saying this might not be the case?

No affinity as it's not within walking distance. So if CCFC moved to Isle of Wight and the locals went it would be fine because it's on their doorstep and they can walk there.

They won't drop it (them) so until that's out the way nothing substantial will happen at the Ricoh for CCFC.

In terms of the current players, yes of course you are.

However, you have yet again let your hypocrisy and selfishness show through.

If someone has done something wrong then it needs to be found out and people told. In a perfect world we would go back to the highfield road era and be told the truth from the start but that won't happen. The club and it's fans have been screwed over, it's only right they are given answers. You must agree on this?

To come clean on the Rugby. It wasn't until the razamataz of Wasps and the big screen view on decisions etc etc I got really hooked on Rugby.
I always watched England but now I'm watching all PL rugby on the TV if it effect Wasps.

I do watch my daughter at Cov Welsh but it's more supporting her than the quality of the game.

My first love is CCFC and has been since 1967. Shame you guys can't move on and enjoy both.

.... and it's for CCFC to fight the cause ?

It appears to me the law is a flip of a coin. Sisu are just appealing in the hope they win the flip.

CCFC will not benefit from this IMHO.

You're thinking financially again. I said to get answers not money. To hold people to account. Not get compensated. Also technically SISU fighting the cause, after all they are paying the legal fees.

So if we were to move again and the locals loved us and adopted us as our own would it be ok for us to stay? Or would it only be fair if they had big screen reviews?

It's not hypocrisy it's just enjoying life and leaving people to fight their own battles.
