Hmmm.As morally corrupt as WASPS CCC ACL Higgs may have been, we won't be at the BPA, not worthy of debate, we all know we will be at the Ricoh in Aug 2018
Why, when you know the answer?
How about this one for you. If our owners for 'business reasons' decided to move us out of Coventry again, would you take it on the chin or would you pout and whine and cry and bitch about it?
Actually, no need to answer, because like you I already know what your answer will be. You'd be completely outraged; but it's fine for Wasps because you do OK out of it (with the side benefit that it screws SISU regardless of the effect on the club).
Wycombes not in London ?
...... and London Wasps was for 15 years but it does not stop people on here using it.Yes because the comparison of 10 years in Wycombe to a previous 138 in London should just be ignored to prove a petty point shouldn't it.
You do know Wycombe is far closer to London than Coventry or are you poor at Geography as well as History.

They only changed their name to London Wasps to differentiate themselves from the amateur club in 1999. As long as they are not daft enough to call themselves Coventry Wasps I have no issues.That's a different Wasps Moff, who are still in London. This Wasps only has 30 years of history.

Try a FOI with Nuneaton Town, I doubt you'd get an answer though.As morally corrupt as WASPS CCC ACL Higgs may have been, we won't be at the BPA, not worthy of debate, we all know we will be at the Ricoh in Aug 2018
How come there's posters up at the Ricoh about Wasps 150 year anniversary celebrations?That's a different Wasps Moff, who are still in London. This Wasps only has 30 years of history.

Are you going to be advertising for them elsewhere as well.

I'm a expert on history. Test me on the Calculus Period.

It's a shame that someone from CRFC doesn't just come out and say this as it would put an end to all of the nonsense and mean that Sisu really have no where to hide when questioned on where the club will play. They will have to really have a plan or admit that there really isn't one.that's pretty much what I heard. It wan't from someone senior but it was a club employee who would have a fairly good idea what was going on. Big plans for the club but that don't include CCFC was what was relayed to me.
Yawn!!!Is it advertising when used to prove someone's point as completely wrong.
I suppose if you are conveniently ignoring that fact then it may be considered to be.
They probably are sitting back waiting for Sisu to put money into the stadium but not own it.It's a shame that someone from CRFC doesn't just come out and say this as it would put an end to all of the nonsense and mean that Sisu really have no where to hide when questioned on where the club will play.

No it isn't. The new Wasps are the one in London.
Yawn!!!
I think you'll find that once built, the planning is substantially longer.
Builders buy land and planning permission all the time, run out of funds and throw down some foundations before time runs out to keep the planning permission open.
I think you'll find that the stand already up is effectively 'the foundations'! After all, the planning consent is to extend, and you can't extend what's not there in the 1st place!
*Edit, just noticed Fernando Partridge has already replied with pretty much the same reply*

That only applies if the proposed structure is the same as the original plan. I suspect a ten year old plan would need to be updated, and for certain planning permission would need to be applied for.
When mixing it with the more intelligent posters on the forum (such as yourself) I tendOriginal, that is genius.
Couldn't you think of anything more intelligent to add when you were wrong.

To give short responses, ya know 'so as I hopefully don't embarrass myself to much.
Also how was I wrong, did Nick not just emblazon a full size advert for Wasps season
Tickets all over SBT, at least the CT get paid for it.
Never been interested in rugby whatsoever, but that poster looks really good, really
Professional like, sort of exiting, hmm got me thinking .......lol

Nick I made comedic (ok maybe not funny) response to your advert, one of the reallyNo, I posted an image in one post within 1 thread so it wasn't "all over SBT"
. There was no link or call to action as part of it, it was to show the dates on the left hand side.
I know exactly why he posted FFS, that doesn't in any way detract from the fact heThe poster Nick posted was to show that Wasps are celebrating their 150th year, which is contrary to what Tony was stating, that the Wasps in Coventry is a new club. I take it you missed or ignored that.
It really isn't. Wasps were started way back when as an amateur team. The one still in London is the amateur team. The professional arm was started 30 years ago by the amateur team and originally broke of when they moved to QPR's ground and IIRC became a subsidiary of a subsidiary company of QPR, after that failed they went nomadic eventually arriving at the Ricoh via a 10 year stint at Wycombe. The original amateur team still exists and plays in London today with all ties now cut from the Wasps professional team.
Wasps are not nomadic. I'm sorry but this is a deliberately lazy form of expression that people use to justify hypocrisy. It's almost as though people don't know what nomads are. Wasps were based in London from their origins (which they notably haven't disclaimed) 150 years ago. Their fan base hailed from London and it's surrounds, and they remained in London in terms of their academy until very recently. Again, nomads by definition move from place to place aimlessly - until the Ricoh became available Wasps always looked to remain in or near London. Even Wasps owner when he bought the club said it; "Wasps are a London club." - why on earth would they call themselves 'London Wasps' if that also wasn't their intention at the time.
Wycombe to London is patently not Coventry to London unless you're an idiot or you're dancing on the head of a pin to avoid admitting an inconvenient truth. If moving to QPR and then Wycombe made Wasps nomadic, then what did moving from HR to the Ricoh and then to Northampton and back to the Ricoh make us? Nomadic is a crap argument, and it simply doesn't stand up to scrutiny I'm afraid.
Wasps moved from London to Coventry for business reasons that suited their owner at the time, in this case a very cheap deal on a stadium. If our owners, for business reasons that suit them at the time, decide to move us elsewhere then who here who accepts Wasps can complain? Either it's OK to move a club from its roots for the owner's business reasons, or it isn't.
In that case CCFC should stop all the nonsense about being formed in 1883 as they weren't professional for their first 9 years or so.I don't disagree with any of that. It was the notion that the professional team of Wasps (Wasps RFC) somehow have a 150 year history, they don't. It was set up by the amateur team (Wasps FC) 30 years ago and split from the amateur team when they moved to Loftus Road in the mid 90's just 1 year after being formed leaving Wasps FC as an amateur only club at there original location where they still play today with their 150 year history as a separate entity.
