I will give it a bash.
People should also start sending correspondence to the wasps funded city of culture committee and suggest removing culture isn’t a great starting point
And don’t forget Coventry is the European City of Sport next year. Will look great if in the same year the football club ceases to exist.People should also start sending correspondence to the wasps funded city of culture committee and suggest removing culture isn’t a great starting point
Doesn't make it a waste of time. If someone like JLR were to start asking questions of Wasps upper management it would have an impact. Must be a lot of Cov fans employed at JLR, maybe they should give their employer some feedback.I don’t think Ricoh arena will give a shit! Plus you have to consider that some of these might be contractual long term deals so they are hardly going to walk away.
And how much is the owner now owned? If I was in his position unless I was a die hard fan I'd be seriously thinking about getting my money back and getting out. Losing money, falling crowds and now a deal which will, after the short term boost, mean they have less money coming in every year.Heard yesterday from. Cov Rugger fan that all premiership rugby clubs are likely to get a £20 million injection as some company has bought a % of image rights so regretfully parasites have a short term fix to their money woes
Just an idea but should this be a standardised email? If someone articulate posts their email on here we can all just copy and paste and press send. This serves two purposes-
1) it will make sense 2) its easier so more people are likely to send it.
Obviously people can add to the email if they want.
Sent!Here's the letter:
You better stop sponsoring the cuckoo cunts. Or else.
I would be surprised if the casino hadn't already had words with Wasps. 23 plus match days lost with thousands of people attending who like a pint or two would be a significant loss for them. There's probably a financial penalty in the casino's favour if Wasps manage to lose that much business. Same for all the F&B deals they've done, no way anyone has signed up on fixed terms without any security over a big chunk of sales.This is a good idea but we should take it further by refusing to use the casino especially on match day or use the hotel etc
Wouldn’t stop away fans thoughAm I only the one that logged in expecting to see pictures of some hotties?

Easy to drop a message on one of their forums explaining things and asking them not to in support.Wouldn’t stop away fans though
The not that many use it.Wouldn’t stop away fans though
Great point!Easy to drop a message on one of their forums explaining things and asking them not to in support.
Pretty sure I've seen similar things posted on here before away matches.
Get the point but most on here and city fans do not make up the majority of events and co at the ricoh. I bet 1% at most of this forum went to the spice girls etc so in truth its not going to make a dent. Personally I would be happy to do this but in reality we are a very small grouping against the city of Coventry and wider WM. Still the fact that most are not blaming CCC or Wasps, there is only SISU to blame.Thing is if you were getting a Jag or a Range you still would, but smaller businesses and local issues we can have more influence on. Easy to switch from Npower, not use Majestic Wines, Heineken is horrible anyway (apart from the premium version not brewed here) and plenty of solicitors not to use Wright Hassall. That should be a given for all of us.
The bigger things we can collectively do are harder for people, but we need to be strong. Difficult if your favourite band are playing at the venue most local to you, but there would be nothing better than seeing real low crowds there at their events. Whatever it is, if its the casino you use, then use a different one, if theres something at the exhibition hall, don't go. The only option we can exercise within the law is to hit them in the pockets but when doing so, ensure they know exactly why. It's a shame for eg those exhibiting whatever it may be, but hopefully they will understand the reason and take their exhibitions elsewhere too.
If anyone can get some email addresses for anyone due there or alternatively who has in the past (as they're likely to be repeat customers) then get something out to them and advise that the people of Coventry and surrounding area who support the club will not be attending their events. At the very worst they will hit the arena for discounted options for potential distress and that will have an effect, as will higher police and stewarding at events if we publicise likely disruption.

JLR have pulled out of the sponsorship deal with them thank god.
Surely thats only so they can announce the stadium naming rights deal Italia kept telling us about. :joyful:Exactly the deal was cancelled last month
