Were people done at Wembley after a ground share?

Pretty much-I've been to 3 games since Northampton after previously having a ST for years! I still love the club and follow them, but I don't go to games anymore as it broke the habit.

So it isn't going to affect you anyway then.

not going to lie for me personally if it was Walsall I would go, never going to live close to Coventry again so to travel 3 miles to see them would be a bonus

Being selfish I would agree Walsall easy trip up M5 . Let’s hope we can stay ( I pray for a miracle) but if not Walsall would definitely be my choice.

Agreed lads, Walsall fits the bill. Right off the m6 and easy enough to get to. I would purchase season ticket there

I’ve got into the Ground this afternoon and a woman in front of us has said that the WMP have been told it’s Notts County, that we will Groundshare with next season, although not officially confirmed yet.

Can't see it being Notts County, how would they manage fixtures with Forest over the road too. They currently play on alternate weeks.

You have to think MK is a definite, Blues likely but I cannot see villa. Walsall could be a potential club coming forward. Leicester would be the obvious choice from a logistical positioning but probably doubtful

Depends if Lesthur are interested in Bayliss I suppose as a deal might be mutually beneficial

Why would WMP have been told if its Nottingham? Would be nothing to do with them.

So free tickets are alright even though you increase the attendance?

Suppose it could depends on the F&B deal we get if we give free tickets away

Because they will still have to send our liaison officer.

The only problem about parking if we play at Blues is the little bleeders holding their hands out to 'look after your car' and the overzealous police

Told pretty randomly last night at s pub quiz near Rugby that it was going to be St Andrews, which would suit me to be honest.

Absolutely no chance of it then.

One of the benefits of ground sharing is that we would have a decent pitch to play on unlike the ploughed field at the Ricoh, provided the club we ground share with don't share with egg chasers. On another forum it was suggested we shouldn't punish the team and MR by not going if we ground share ? I am hoping SISU win and Wasps have to pay £27, 000,000 and go bust freeing the Ricoh for us to return. I hate SISU but if they lose will we stay on that crap pitch ? I would rather ground share with say Brum or Walsall for 3 years whilst a new stadium is built in Tile Hill. After all, look how it benefitted Brighton playing at the Withdean for 3 years whilst the Amex was being built.

If it’s not the Ricoh I do hope it’s St Andrews, would be much easier for me every week - as selfish as that sounds ‍
