Lets see what the mob thinks?
11th hour confirmation of a 1 or 2 year deal at the Ricoh and then the whole charade again near the end of that agreement. Continue until death
My concern is too many people believe this and therefore aren't bothered about doing anything. This is how we ended up in Northampton. Everyone said it wouldn't happen and a last minute deal would be done, look how that worked out.Absolutely believe this

The open letter will be a new Christmas tradition11th hour confirmation of a 1 or 2 year deal at the Ricoh and then the whole charade again near the end of that agreement. Continue until death
They have already moved the goalposts on that and washed their hands of itI did say down the pub last weekend that I am sure I remembered reading something about that security of Coventry city football club must be part of any agreement - over to you council
If we were kicked out I wouldn't be unhappy if one morning London Wasps came in to find all their locks concreted.It's not that people aren't bothered, but unless we all want to turn up in Sky Blue vests and impact every Wasps game (gilets jaunes style) which won't happen. then I'm not sure what we can do. Can't easily influence SISU?
Just their locks? Not their props, their flankers and their fullbacks?If we were kicked out I wouldn't be unhappy if one morning London Wasps came in to find all their locks concreted.
They will probably have walked out by then.Just their locks? Not their props, their flankers and their fullbacks?
Why isn't Anne Lucas being called out on this? Seem to remember she forced through Ricoh sale under 'back me or fire me' stance?They have already moved the goalposts on that and washed their hands of it
But that move was done for a purpose that Sisu were in control of. It was always going to happen in an attempt to distress ACLMy concern is too many people believe this and therefore aren't bothered about doing anything. This is how we ended up in Northampton.

Going after SISU is a complete waste of time and effort, totally agree. Its been done and has had zero impact.It's not that people aren't bothered, but unless we all want to turn up in Sky Blue vests and impact every Wasps game (gilets jaunes style) which won't happen. then I'm not sure what we can do.

Doesn't matter who is in control and / or what their reasons are for their course of action. The simple fact is we have a very real danger of no longer having a club, the same way we had a very real danger of ending up in Northampton.But that move was done for a purpose that Sisu were in control of. It was always going to happen in an attempt to distress ACL
This time Sisu are far from in control....
Off the top of my head they could easily get a stream of former players talking to CWR and the Telegraph saying the club must not cease to exist and must stay in Coventry. If you could get the likes of Maddison and Wilson's support you'd probably get national coverage.

Instead the Jimmy Hill Way has come out defending Wasps and going over the same old ground.Going after SISU is a complete waste of time and effort, totally agree. Its been done and has had zero impact.
However Wasps have shown themselves to be very sensitive to negative press.
What we really need is the Trust to get on the case. They are the biggest fans group and have the media connections making it far me effective than me, you or anybody else starting yet another group.
Doesn't mean disruption at Wasps games or annoying their supporters, although seeing that many of them seem keen for us to go to the wall I do wonder sometimes why we are so careful to not upset them.
The speech Sillett made the other day is a perfect launch point.

If you could get the likes of Maddison and Wilson's support you'd probably get national coverage. It was done with the Northampton move and would be more effective this time round as SISU didn't give a shit what any former player thought of us being in Northampton, Wasps will certainly be concerned if every couple of days there's another player in the local media highlighting the issue.
Pressure the council, not just on their misleading (to be charitable) statements at the time of the sale but of the economic impact on the city if the football club are no longer here.
Highlight that in the year Coventry will be the city of sport the football club will cease to exist.
Contact Wasps sponsors to ensure the feeling of the local population is known to them. JLR being a good starting point as a company with a big presence in the city who have a lot of our supporters on their workforce. Its often said when city are doing well productivity increases, another angle to play.
Sure there's plenty of other things people can come up with but it needs someone like the trust to be a focal point and bring everyone together.
Is the Jimmy Hill Way still a thing?Instead the Jimmy Hill Way has come out defending Wasps and going over the same old ground.

So many groups have come and gone, it confuses the shit out of me.
The one group we could do with hearing from is the Sky blue Trust.
Any word from them yet? Or have I missed it?

Fortunately it seems that he's just talking to himself, pretty much the only replies to his tweets are from his own personal account!
