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.

they need us and they clearly could benefit from the income. Their problem is they could lose the stadium if / when win the court case v the council and they will lose a lot more than rental and sponsorship. It’s rock and hard place for them. Us keeping the pressure on and playing elsewhere doesn’t help them, and why should we !!

Which puts us in a good position. If they as they say have done nothing wrong they only benefit.

if they lose the stadium it’s because they were complicit in state aid and deserve everything they get

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.

With the North Stand fully open we would probably be looking at regular crowds around 15000 and
north of 20000 for big games ‘why wouldn’t they want us.
I think the real question is how long SISU are prepared to stay away in an effort to inflict financial
Difficulty on Wasps.
That’s not a dig at SISU by the way.
