Now we’re up I hope that all stops are pulled so we can get back in our City and play football .
Wasps , Sisu and the Council need to have their heads banged together and sort this out .Lock the door behind them until a resolution is agreed .
This could be the start of something special with Robins at the helm . PUSB

Given that the Telegraphs rugby reporter, whose articles read like Wasps press releases, and prominent Wasps blogs all simultaneously released articles saying we should go back it would be fair to suspect that Wasps think getting us back will help plug a hole in their finances.

They can easily do a u-turn without losing face, we'd all know its BS but they just have to give it some rubbish about coronavirus making them rethink.

Question is will they offer an acceptable deal.

It’ll happen.

Wasps will be begging for us back.

Rather pay for a giant pint glass to put over the Ricoh, watch them starve to death and go back as owners.

Just thinking about how you normally deal with Wasps. Think most exterminators in Cov have my number blocked by now after drunken phone calls.

Council and wasps putting our tweets. They can both fuck off.

Covcraig@bury · Jun 9, 2020

Totally agree with the glass but most would just stamp on the pesky f##ker.
On the other side I know we could play hard ball to their demands . Eventually they will break and offer us a reasonable deal . They need the money to survive as much as we do .
Our own ground would be the ideal scenario but that’s just a pipe dream at the moment.

Nah can't stamp on them we need the stadium. Sorry mate, I'm just one step ahead.

Had a look just to see the reactions. Milder than i expected.

Without playing in Coventry it will be impossible to compete in reality and also slightly ridiculous

ccfctommy · Jun 9, 2020

Need to get back there to properly compete. Let's hope it happens

Gazolba · Jun 9, 2020

Financially, it would make sense to get back to the Ricoh.
The Birmingham pitch is likely to be a better surface though.

Sky Blue Pete · Jun 9, 2020

Need a proper deal to compete sustainably. There’s a deal to be done

Warwickhunt · Jun 9, 2020

wherever we will be playing if there is no vacine we will all be playing to restricted gates probably a 3rd of the stadium capacity to enable adequate social distancing and would all be season tickets i would think? need to be price increased to cover the shortfall on revenue. Personally I would buy one!

play_in_skyblue_stripes · Jun 9, 2020

Must happen.

Great_Expectations · Jun 9, 2020

Coventry is the right place to be playing next year, and I’d say we have even more clout in negotiations now.

But I’d seriously worry about the pitch, I’m sure that’ll be a big factor in negotiations, at least from a footballing perspective.

If it’s Birmingham again, then so be it.

Totally agree.
Need to get football back at Gigg Lane too Craig.
Whitefield Sky Blues!

I just don’t get why wasps will be begging us to go back. Getting to the prem I get, but is being a lower league championship club really enough to ignore the court cases against them ?. Would love to be wrong but just can’t see it..

cant see anything other than St. Andrews next year. Great pitch for us to play on at least...

There aren't any court cases against them.

if the council have to take the stadium off them. A loss for the council goes against wasps .

SeaSeeEffCee · Jun 9, 2020

Depends how much of next season is going to be behind closed doors. No rush to get back if no-one is going to be able to go to games anyway.

Don’t disagree, but crazy isn’t it. Acceptance of being outside of the city.

Only if the council are found to have been in the wrong

agreed. Also no rush to get back if fans will only go to the first game back and then drop off ?

which is surely the best outcome for ccfc ? Without that, we are “as you were”

Utterly despicable. Robin's should have a joint role, our manager and Council Leader.

Good to see you right back on form

I hope we are back playing in Coventry next season.

Can’t wait, St. Andrews works on no level apart from a better pitch and that’s not acceptable to leave our city

From what you keep saying you need to learn about why we left the city this time.

Get on the wasps forum and preach to them.

The championship is the 4th most watched league in the world. They need a stadium sponsor.

currently their stadium is trending on twitter, it is not down to them - it’s trending because of us. In their current financial situation If you can’t see why they need us back you really haven’t got a clue.

there is an acceptance for being out of the city, because wasps currently see us as a cash cow to leech off.
