Nick if it's not too much of a ballache, if you come across any of these weird tweets from these accounts could you create a thread for them? Might be helpful for those on here who don't have twitter/can't use it whilst at work to view what's being said. Cheers.

None of them will have ever mentioned a match ever. All pipe up at the same time pushing the same lines towards the same people. They haven't got the memo at how obvious they are.

If I get caught breaking the law and robbing a bank, do you think the authorities would accept an upfront indemnity just in case I balls it up?

This was where the indemnity part was first mentioned that Gilbert is looking for and is blatantly ignoring it because of the source (I assume you already know this Nick and you’re just playing with him)

SG: "I’m not here to give opinions Ian. I’ll let others do that. No side will comment publicly on specifics. If they did they’d be breaching the NDA they all signed"

Me: "Can you ask Wasps how they consider "the ball is in CCFC's court", please?"

SG: "They won't give specifics of any possible solution due to the NDA. That's the official position. I can't make them tell me any more I'm afraid"

It's pretty obvious he is leading up to something, pushing things a certain way and trying to drop little hints. It was mentioned last week which is obviously from the CCFC or SISU side that Wasps want that. It's the same as when things have happened in the past, lined up with all of the random accounts trying to lead things and discredit anybody who says things first.

Maybe he doesn't read Les's Twitter feed in case he encounters someone expressing an opinion!

Does everyone think sisu will accept wasps proposal then or is it a no go?

I think they may give in

No idea.

Although if the extreme happens and Wasps are ordered to give millions back to the council, are you thinking SISU are going to offer to cover that for them?

Doubtful. Would you want to be on the hook for £27 million?

His bias for Wasps is bordering on the embarrassing. Could he be more obvious? Yet again asking the wrong questions on purpose.

Funny how when challenged he’s said it’s not for him to give an opinion. What is suggesting CCFC cover any future financial implication for Wasps if not his opinion?

They would be crazy to agree to that. Why should they pay up of Wasps and / or the council are found to be in the wrong?

Exactly they shouldn't but i feel they may agree to it knowing they probably won't win anything from the complaint

"Not here to give my opinion"
"Wasps can't comment due to NDA"

So what is:

"Wasps don't seem against coming back if Sisu can suggest a way forward."

It's either opinion or Wasps commenting on it.

It's also a ridiculous one, and he's clearly tweeted that to get a reaction. Does he think our fanbase are thick and don't do any digging whatsoever? SISU rejecting Wasps' indemnity request is a foregone conclusion. No one in their right mind would do that - and if they do agree to Wasps' terms you'd bet your house on the fact there's a hidden agenda behind it.

He's blatantly ignoring Les Reid's tweet. He might as well have the Wasps logo branded on his forehead.

WASPS have returned to threats to kick out Coventry City from the Ricoh Arena ground built for it amid confidential talks – unless its owner protects the rugby club from any potential damages resulting from a complaint to the European Commission.

He does have people liking his comment saying that I made up the stuff about Wasps wanting indemnity after all...

It's no different to what all of those strange Twitter accounts have been trying to do.

He will know full well, he just wants to mislead people.

I am not sure why he is so eager to push that it has been made up. That's telling in it's self.

People (mainly wasps fans) are still piping up in reply to me pointing it out to Simon.

It makes you wonder how they get up in the morning.

The guy who carefully folded the flag away and left with the young lad. The guy holding the flag told me and Irish Sky Blue he wasn’t on SBT so he might be PSB but I don’t think so......

He's now saying Les Reid has blocked him on twitter so he genuinely had no idea and still can't find the article. What a circus.

I can believe that. tbf I clicked on the link in Reid's twitter and couldn't find the bit about it in the article, so I thought I'd leave everyone to it for the day

Has he been blocked from the Observer website as well? Maybe we could block Gilbert and the Telegraph from viewing this forum, where would they get their stories from then?
Wasps return to threats to kick out Coventry City from Ricoh Arena – after two-year tenancy had been agreed in secret talks
