So how will they become 'harsh'?

I think they will want to become the biggest Rugby club in Coventry. I don't know many or even if any CCFC fans have said that they will not go to CCFC games anymore and instead solely go to Wasps. I cannot see how Wasps can grow in terms of status and size in Coventry. Whereas CCFC are now in League 1 and will naturally grow and gather more fans should we get promotion. Success for CCFC makes us a more attractive proposition in lots of areas and should we still be at the Ricoh, then Wasps will benefit from that too, so again I'll ask why would Wasps become harsh and alienate further potential profits?

Stop talking sense and you know he can't answer that truthfully.

They want to become the biggest sports club and make as much money as possible. They couldn't care less about ccfc having a successful future.

If they are looking at growing their fanbase in the long term, say in 10 years, then if they are more successful than ccfc they have a higher chance of attracting and retaining new fans (children).

CCFC being in the PL means them playing second fiddle to us in the city.

So by your thinking, if they want to make as much money as possible (your words), would they make more money from us at the Ricoh in a higher division? Sponsors, marketing, footfall and F & B to name a few would mean by your thinking they would make more money. So fancy taking a punt on the question I asked about how they would make it 'harsh' for someone who is making them more money?

Also, if they are looking to gain new younger fans, I reckon it would take more than 10 years. Children have parents who still support CCFC and the chances are they will be taken to watch CCFC before Wasps. Wasps have been here for a little while now and our attendances are up on last season, are they not?

So shouldn't we look at staying no 1 in the city shame we don't have their owners.
Forward thinking and putting in proper investment where it is needed
What do we get?
Every body hates us no one will speak to us well sorry you bring that on yourself.......
