Err.... top division in rugby union vs 4th division of football. Yes we can.

They moved here intending to be the biggest rugby team in Europe, if not the world.

Dead rubber against an irish team in horrible weather.
World domination ? I would guess that is still the intention.

That was 2005 though. Wasps have only just arrived.

The only way is down for them.

Same as me the only time I read anything about Wasps or know how well they are doing or not, is from posts on here.

We surely don't want them to do well do we?

The better they do the more the folk of Coventry will follow them and I don't ever want them to be accepted as a Coventry team.

I also want to see Cov as the premier rugby team in this city

Or will Sisu want to pay the going rate for it.
Or would the stadium be sustainable with CCFC as the only tenant at this level.
Both confirmed by JS and TF on many occasions.

We are in a mess, Wasps may be in the future.
Surely we should work together to for mutual survival rather than mutual destruction ?

Going nowhere until they get their money back evidently.

Don' give a shit about them really I do go to Cov rugby games now and then done about 3 this season and have at least another 2 to do before the end of the season.
Just a shame they clash with City games or would do more always see a few City fans there.

If Wasps failed in a couple of years or so just think of many of those newly found rugby fans turning up at Cov.

Christ, are you starting this one up again?

Whatever happened to that post somebody gave you to put up about watching CCFC die so Wasps could pick us up on the cheap and be our saviour?

The fan base will grow as will the rugby fan base in general.
Try it ?

If I really wished it would, I would delete it wouldn't I? Another bit of nonsense from you.

Ah, delayed for a year? Course! it has. Is that along with JLR stadium?

Think so. I'm sure the rugby's governing body's rules state that if you are knocked out of the Pro 14 you have to forfeit your stadium and get the fook out of the city you are occupying.

Pretty sure I have quoted that word for word.

Wasps don't play in Pro 14?

There will be a new sponsor when the nonsense is over.
Until it's announced you'll never know if I'm right or wrong.
Must be gnawing at you ?

Not particularly? It's just one in the long line of things you go on about where you haven't been right or had a clue what you are on about.

You will just give it the "it was my opinion and I am entitled to it" anyway.

The constant positivity about CCFC and negativity towards Wasps increasing must have been gnawing you, you soon made a come back to posting

Missed the fun of watching you guys grinding your teeth as I fed you snippets of information.
Bit slow at the moment with Sisu holding out but there is still sport to be had.

I am an Ulster fan and it was the state of our team. We did nothing except drop the ball, knock it on and get turned over in possession. Great turnout from Ulster fans, just a shame our team didn't turnout!
