Any other football club would be outraged at a rugby club from London coming and taking a ground built for us. We need to start making it as uncomfortable as possible for them - it’s been too comfortable so far. On their first game that not on the same day as a City match, we need to do something. Any ideas very much appreciated

No point, our owners absolutely have to follow through with their stadium plans now though... Wasps could take the piss out of us forever tbh if we dont

No point in protest! This news is a disgrace - whichever side of the fence u sit on, BOTH PARTIES (Sisu and Wasps) ARE TO BLAME for us staying at Birmingham! How can u not come to an agreement is beyond logic!! Really felt a move back to Coventry was going to happen! As for this “new stadium” - after tonights news, can see it happening even less than i did before!

It didn’t happen because of the indemnity clause! Read the statement. This is why the pressure needs to be cranked up on Wasps!

The best protest from the people of Coventry is to stop going to Wasps games, even on free tickets.

They're not apathetic when it comes to turning up at Wembley giving it 'look at us, imagine what could be if sisu invested' absolute bollocks.
Imagine what we could do if we had some fucking balls and ran those cunts out of town. Imagine what would happen in Leeds or Manchester, their feet wouldn't touch the ground.

We need 21 blokes to turn up and stand around half arsed, before shuffling home again while two of them go for a solitary pint in a deserted casino. That'll learn 'em.

It's pretty much explained in the article.

I am sure people read something completely different. Who are the third party?

As much as I despise the sentiment, I do have mixed sentiment still towards the club and its owners.

This is good news. We can now just concentrate on ourselves without the distraction of a non profit making appeasement situation. It's classic from football club owners. Release news of new stadium and days later confirm all home games will be away for the foreseeable. Placate the EFL, create hope amongst the supporters just to soften them up for treating them like rubbish again. I'll be glad when we're no longer part of this sideshow. From the football clubs side I expect a couple more years of smoke and mirrors, no stadium, young players sold for profit and a budget simply designed to fit a division, with no real care for which that is. Glad to be rid.

The alternative is there's more than one person in the group, and I find that harder to believe!

I think that whatever 'the response' it needs to be creative or effective (preferably both). I would be tempted to target the City of Culture event if it was about creating a fuss, Can you imagine how nervous the Council would be at the thought of their 'event; being swamped in Sky Blue flares, a few thousand City fans in tops, whatever in front of the press at the opening showcase event. Klaxons, whatever - I think it is creative stuff that is needed, not just a small (if well intended) group standing outside a Wasps game.

as much as I hate the cunts I can't help but feel that this wasn't their doing, though if that's right how do the CCC have so much influence over them?
I'm still up for any protest against them or the CCC and definitely think targeting City of culture is a good idea as suggested by Harry.

That’s mostly where I am too. How can two businesses not make an agreement that will so obviously benefit the finances of both when the economy is going to shit!!!!! I’ll get over it though
