Veins of ice.

Not veins of ice, just not very interested. Still being new to the game like your goodself, it must be exciting for you

You have said it several times. I seem to recall you saying you had recently got into the game as your daughter had starting playing for Keresely.

You dont need to tell me otherwise, as you posts display a distinct lack of experience of the game, whilst your new found love of a team moved like a franchise display a lack of understanding of its traditions, and highlight a more football based fanview of the sport.

Game set and match. Hopefully that will shut him and his simple sidekick Tony up for at least a day.

So, anyway............seeing as SISU/Optium have decide to progress with the new stadium outside of Coventry looks like the plastic rugby fans will be able to stare at all the Wasps signs/badges, rather than the game, to their hearts content.

"Yeah, we need 16,304 yellow ones and 18,305 black ones. I don't suppose you know anyone who has any use for the sky blue ones we're going to rip out?"

Kerseley women have moved to Cov Welsh this season. Keep up .
She has played several years for them.
Clueless how you get my understanding of the games from my posts.
I support (watch) 3 local teams now all within walking distance. Cov. Welsh men and ladies and Wasps.

We can all be satisfied that if you type 'Coventry' into Google search, Wasps doesn't appear anywhere.

I've just gone through the first 30 pages of Google and not a single mention of Wasps. Nice to know that Coventry Boys Volleyball (page 27) and the Coventry Cat Group (page 29) appear way before Wasps, if they appear at all. Maybe on page 500 or something.

Long way it continue and a long time may it continue to be that no-one accept Wasps as a Coventry team.

If you are on about the seats maybe Tim could buy them for his Poundland stadium.

But if SISU wanted them, the evil horrid Wasps would charge the earth just to try and cripple the plans, with the full backing of Ann Lucas and her CCC cronies

Agreed the Fan zone in Rugby is excellent and Football could learn a great deal from this event.
The town of Rugby has done a first class job in setting this up, I went again after the City game last night and a number of fans watching the game had City shirts on enjoying the atmosphere with friends and a few drinks.

I don't think that's right, not for most people.

I'm a cricket fan, have supported Warwickshire since I was a kid. I now live close to the Rose Bowl but the only times I have ever been there is to see the Bears or for internationals.

Even sports like ice hockey, which is a franchise sport, people don't just switch teams. For example there's a lot of arguments at the moment in Manchester as to which of their two teams is truly the one who has a history of representing the city. They don't even play in the same league, why are people arguing and not just going to both as fans of the sport?

I just don't believe that people who have been Saints and Tigers fans for all their life have suddenly changed to supporting Wasps or going to their games. You might get a handful of neutrals but not the thousands who seem to have suddenly discovered a great love of Wasps.

But in saying that, I know very loyal Cov fans who also go to watch Wasps simply because they like rugby.

I can accept that some do but Wasps attendances have gone up by around 10K. There can't be that many neutral fans turning up and paying for tickets.

No, I mean it. Wasps will have a better idea of what's going on than us fans etc.

If they believe there is no stadium, Wasps will just wait for us to start negotiations.

If SISU are building, then maybe Wasps will offer SISU a deal?

And we finally get to the heart of it, anyone who speaks a bad word against Wasps is a SISU poster.

This isn't about a burning desire to watch Rugby or a new found love for Wasps, its all about getting one over SISU and always has been for some people on here.

It's no coincidence that the most negative posters on all matters CCFC are the most defensive about Wasps.

They must think that everybody else does. Somebody needs to tell them that Wasps don't see it as a threat and never have.
Plan B. Get a deal, get promoted, get out.

If you are clueless how I can tell you have no idea about the game and its traditions, then it isnt worth trying to explain. Its an apt word for you.

Why should I keep up about Keresley Women, becoming Cov Welsh. I have absoloutely no interest thanks.

You support 3 local teams, wow, what do you want a medal.

I didnt try to pick you up. You said in previous posts your daughter played for Keresley. Why would I give a shit that they have changed names you twat, so why would I keep up.

As for traditions you have no fucking idea. The man who flounced off every week that he was leaving the forum when the club moved to Northampton, yet activelely welcomes another club who actually left their traditional heartland permanently, you are a fucking clueless hypocrite who moves the goalposts to suit himself. You rightly berated the football club for moving out, yet think its perfectly acceptable for another club to do it, clueless.

I enjoy lots of things, your fucking dross isnt on the list.
