Heard it on the TV this morning, everyone taking part??
Will it achieve much?

It’s something though as for what will it achieve probably just a little publicity. I just hope a decent lot stay this timeDoesn't really achieve much in my eyes, just heard it on the TV this morning! Fair play to them that do take part though
Sit in could work. Wasps have a home game tomorrow, if people refused to leave until Wasps agreed to open talks with the club that might do something or at the very least give them a bit of a panic.
Indeed they could but I suspect Wasps refuse to talk to football club and forcibly remove fans will generate more press than fans hang around for 30 minutes after a match will.It would need to be a pretty big sit in though. Only then would it work in causing disruption and creating publicity. Otherwise Wasps can simply force people from being removed under the charge of trespassing.

FairPlay to anyone who is doing anything but not sure it will achieve much if it is just a repeat of the last couple of weeks.
It wouldn’t be football stewards, would it?I don't think Wasps forcibly removing people would give them bad press as it would just be spun as Football Club stewards etc.

It would be within their right though? IMO the majority of fans wouldn't have the balls to do this so I doubt it would even come to that. If it's 10 people remaining in the Ricoh would it really create negative publicity? I personally don't think so as they'd just be seen as a nuisance.
Yeah I mean at least they're trying I can't knock them from that perspective. The idea is there it just doesn't possess enough weight. Not unless a significant number of fans join in.
At least ccfc/ Sisu are allowing peaceful protestDo you think the local media would allow it to look bad on Wasps?
They would get more publicity if it were a shit in to get across the situation we're in. I'm not suggesting they do that by the way.
I was going to say the last time they did it they moved the scoreboardHaven't people being doing that for years by the scoreboard anyway?
Wasps would probably spin it saying how they were giving shelter to the homeless.If it was properly planned and say 100 of us brought blankets and spent the night there it’d be amazing. 10 people who get moved on after ten minutes not so much.
Ideally all of Singers Corner and those who like encroaching, seated together and producing sky blue scarves at an appropriate moment. With the possibility of it repeating at random intervals next season if ccfc is no more and there is time on people’s hands on a Saturday afternoon,

CorrectIf the lease is renewed they'll be spinning it like that anyway.
It would need to be a pretty big sit in though. Only then would it work in causing disruption and creating publicity. Otherwise Wasps can simply call the police and have people removed under the charge of trespassing.
I think the trespass charge which the police can use is aggravated trespass under section 68 of the Public Order Act 1994. It may be easier though for them to use a Breach of the Peace charge. This is because people will have already been given permission to enter the ground, which might complicate things.
Interestingly I had a quick look and it could actually fall under squatting. Squatting is illegal in a residential property but not in a commercial property. Although i'm sure the police would spin it as I'm sure the majority including myself aren't well versed in the laws of the land.
I can't see the police wanting to get involved at all - just think of all the paperwork.
Like I said it depends how many people are there. They wouldn't necessarily have to make arrests, just move people on. If there's too many people for them to do anything then they more than likely won't but they'd at least have to come and investigate if called. It's their legal duty to do so.
Like this?:If I ran onto the pitch during a Wasps game, will I just get banned from attending Rugby matches? if so I could live with that, my only concern would be getting rugby tackled by one of the players.
