If they are then we should all be very concerned.

Genuine question not saying it will be good for us but why should we be concerned?

well they said they aren't, I assume people don't want new owners who also bullshit the fans?

I'd settle for that to be honest.
Certainly sort the homeless problem out and would give me a little more hope than I have at the moment.

How do you amalgamate the shop? The one at the Ricoh wasn't big enough for us, let alone 2 team. Nice that you would like wasps to get rid of all the ccfc staff some of which have worked for the club for years. Also how much do ticket master take to do wasps ticketing? Is it more cost effective than ours? Joint advertising incomes? How's is that going to generate any more more, they aren't going to pay more to sponsor us and wasps jointly than they would to sponsor us both separately. It could take £50-60m to get us anywhere near the PL and that's not guaranteed. What happens if they get us there, start siphoning the profits for themselves? All this why they are paying Richardson his £10m back, have to pay interest back on the shares, then pay the shares back in 7 years, whilst trying to invest in wasps to make them the best team in europe.

They won't touch us with a barge pole. It's far too high risk, too much money needed for an outside chance of a little return. Richardson doesn't have enough money.

WASPS are in a win win situation, we continue to fail more fans will drift over to watch them, we improve they can increase the rent as well as make more money on the pies.

Just need a new start with new owners and hey surely they couldn't act any less professionally then the present Regime?

Been here before as well, and while new owners would be a good thing, I'd rather wait, say, a year or two for the right new owners then rush into a change in six months' time, and find ourselves stuck in another seven years of hell.

Yes but there is Hell and there is Hell.
Why not wait another 7 years and see if they can turn this abortion around and then give them a further 7 year extension to try again.
And who are the Right owners will they have it Tattooed on their foreheads?

Ones that don't just come up with forced platitudes about loving the club, loving the fans and doing their best... but have an easily definable track record in terms of prior actions, not words, that shows they might actually be telling the truth...

The only reason they would conceivably have an interest is to use the football arm to absorb cost and spend from the wasps element.

It would be a disaster as there would be far too much spend involved to give a chance of success.

Profit put above culture.

Isn't that what's wrong with our owners? The fact that they have no emotional investment so can make financial decisions coldly, with no consideration to the fans there?

And we've been over and over and over again the explicit things but... wouldn't it be insanity to substitute owners willing to move a club temporarily when financial decisions aren't paying off, to one that's prepared to move one permanently?

Is now I'm off out, as I can't be bothered with this again tbh.

We purchased at the weekend. Hopefully a few more this week will be good for the stand and the atmosphere and hopefully financially to give Mowbray a few pence to spend.

The deadline should not be extended, people know the deal and should sort out in time, if they extend, then some fans delay making demands again saying if we don't sign Messi I am not renewing.

what is fundamental though and where the club fail massively, is having the direct debit system in place for fans to spread payments which makes life easier for them, especially of a family of four.

No where they have failed is that the shop shuts on Thursday, and the new one doesn't open until the First of July so the last few days of the early bird will have to be done on line or by phone......
We all know how good they are in that department.
And you you are right if they don't sign Messi, Ronaldo and Bale I ain't buying one.

Got my ST from the shop on Monday.

Also invested £1 in the Beanie Hats they are selling off. I look ridiculous in it, but I can't resist a bargain!

Sounds about right. Especially as you can get a load of bollocks on here for free.

Do we usually increase much in terms of sales POST Early Bird? I'd hazard a guess that 80% of sales are through the early bird so we need to be at 4800 in order to hit the 6000 target #speculation

Gillingham match one off, website had a massive surge of thousands upon thousands of buyers within probably a couple of minutes of going on a sale. Was always going to crash, under normal circumstances its pretty reliable.

21 month 0% interest credit card deal on at Tesco at the moment, worth a look for anyone wanting a season ticket and a way to spend the cost.

I got my season ticket on line last year and it was hard work, this year took me about 5 minutes and was a easy to use.

Spent the past 2 months convincing myself I wouldn't be renewing my season ticket and that at best I'd go for one of the 12 match packages, on the basis that last season was shit and there's a few games I won't be able to make.

Then for no good reason whatsoever I've had a weak moment this morning and have renewed. Couldn't bare the thought of us having a good season and missing it!
