Yeah, me telling my child not to go and watch Wasps is exactly the same as making them a racist homophobe.
I will tell them they can't go and watch Villa or Leicester too. Maybe she will grow up an Islamaphobe because of it.
Why stop there? Teach them to be intolerant of muslims, gays, blacks, women too maybe??? That kinda path is where all discrimination can start &/or fester.
Very bad idea imo.

So to be crystal clear, if I educate my kids that you think you should follow your own city’s rugby team (Coventry RFC) and not a London franchise that’ll be here a few years this will lead me to/I will be/am a racist, sexist preacher?Why stop there?

Nick Eastwood did indicate that if 'obstacles' still existed then they would not be in a position to negotiate a deal for the 2019/20 season. Maybe their financial situation has changed enough to test their resolve. I guess only time will tell.
Needs a unanimous vote to happen and they won't get that. Bath have already said they're definitely voting against and there's said to be other clubs not keen. Of course the money is great but there are concerns that once you give up control you aren't getting it back.In the news that a company called CVC who previously got involved with Formula 1, have bid 275 million to take over Premiership Rugby.

Need to adjust the timeline slightly. Sisu leave, Wasps go bust, CCFC buy the Ricoh.Wasps go out of business and we buy the Ricoh
It’s easy to justify why they should not go and support Wasps. Most fans of sports teams would agree that franchising is wrong. It deprives the people of the area where the sports club was set up, where it’s history and roots are of following the team that belongs to them. Surely every parent should teach their child what is right and wrong. To franchise a team is simply wrong.Why stop there? Teach them to be intolerant of muslims, gays, blacks, women too maybe???

Little different in Wasps case though, they had already moved from their “home” in London to High Wycombe, personally I think they should have gone back to the London area but with a brand new stadium standing empty and idle and thinking of the cost to buy land in London to build a new ground I can see why they chose the lure of the Ricoh.It’s easy to justify why they should not go and support Wasps.

I remember that argument when the Premiership was first announced but money talks and if enough clubs want it they’ll split away, also we don’t know the format of this apparent offer, I’ve read bits and pieces and as usual it’s all as clear as mud but one thing I noticed was a new “super” league could incorporate invited foreign clubs now club rugby is massive in France for example and if Southern Hemisphere clubs got involved who knows what might happen.Needs a unanimous vote to happen and they won't get that.

They were still based in the south east though. While many would still travel to Whycombe to watch them play it is a lot harder and more expensive for them to trek a hundred miles north for every home game.Little different in Wasps case though, they had already moved from their “home” in London to High Wycombe, personally I think they should have gone back to the London area but with a brand new stadium standing empty and idle and thinking of the cost to buy land in London to build a new ground I can see why they chose the lure of the Ricoh.
Of course not, what a silly question, not for me to justify anything Wasps or us should do. This thread is about where we might be playing next season. A lot on here seem to be assuming we will just go on and on just paying rent and I’ve said don’t bank on it. perhaps I’m being too pessimistic but I fear for our future regarding our home ground simply because we, that’s ccfc have little control over things re. the Ricoh.So you would have been justifying us moving to London from Sixfields then if there was some cheaper land knocking about?
Course not.

I would also worry about where we are playing if the court case isn’t settled. The guy from Wasps was pretty definite that no deal would happen if the legal action continued. It is hard to see where we would play if the Ricoh is closed to us. Nuneaton is perhaps the likeliest place but a lot of work would need to be done I would think for it to meet League standards.Of course not, what a silly question, not for me to justify anything Wasps or us should do.

Okay, but I wasn’t trying to justify their move here but gave a possible reason why they came north rather than back south where they belong. Should never have happened, but then the whole crap ground issue should never have happened going back to Richardson and McGinnity. It’s that catastrophic decision, moving ground etc. that has ultimately put our football club in the hands of our present owner.I replied to a post you made justifying Wasps moving.
Long may that continue!
I’m sure the longstanding loyal local fan base will stand by them (not)!
