Stuart Cosgrove: Wasps coming here should not be allowed to happen. End of.
John Fletcher: Wasps and Wimbledon are very similar. Seems the RFU are happy for it to happen.
Fisher: Cov can't decide if the Wasps move is a positive or negative one for them

That's an interesting response from fisher - they're not against it? Is that because it may be easier to negotiate with new owners than the council?

Floor: What are the RFU rules on relocation?

Pete Rosborough: There are currently no teams left in London. As long as Wasps keep their base in London the RFU are happy.

Which makes the point even stronger, the less Wasps are actually paying the less sense it makes for SISU to build a new ground rather than make a similar offer.

Could probably buy out the compass deal with that as well.

Totally agree with that, however I have seen many point out that the question "Well why can't CCFC stump up £30M?" But I just wanted to clarify that it's not quite as black and white as that.

The Club would need to stump up £8M IMO. However as I have said previously would they be willing to accept CCC obtaining 10% in ACL?

I love your optimism but one step at a time, its painful even thinking about how far we are from the championship never mind the prem.

Floor: Can the Trust put pressure on the vote to be public?
John Fletcher: The only way a private vote could happen is for commercial confidentiality. Same as Tim's discussions on a new ground.

Is it possible that the reason SISU can't make the deal happen is because apparently wasps are bringing a new stadium sponsor with them as part of the £30m deal? Let's face it, SISU struggle to attract a shirt sponsor let alone a stadium sponsor.

Perhaps, but do we know for certain that Wasps will be bringing in a new sponsor? This information is supposed to be Confidential, I think that figure is based on the arrangement with Ricoh and not necessarily what Wasps will be bringing in.

All of a sudden the fans opinion is important to SISU. I can't help but get the feeling that they need us more than we need them at the moment.
