Massive Cov following in Rugby already, not so much the younger kids but blokes in their 30’s & 40’s like me. In the late 90s early 2000s even the Legion had a Rugby branch lol

Meanwhile some people would rather the club be liquidated than be moved a 10 minute train ride away short term.

I believe it might well have been said today. It's in game management format though.

Sisu want to stay at the Ricoh but now we're in the eleventh hour need to make it appear as though we do have alternative plans (no matter how true they are).

Spreading a rumour at a game like today just puts pressure on the other parties and makes the view we will leave without further negotiation more of a reality.

I think Tim probably said it today, and did so on purpose.

Everyone would rather the club stay in Coventry but if that’s not possible in the current predicament then we could do a lot worse than playing in rugby.
But some people think that fans who want the club to survive are automatically Sisu apologists.

Short term ? How do you know that ?! We shrink and then we shrink a bit further and Wasps are propped up by an RFU chucking them plenty of cash....and we shrink.....

For those living in Walsgrave, Cheylesmore, Stivichall, Willenhall, or anywhere near the M6 J2 or 3 it would be just as quick by car given travelling time to Coventry station from home.

Someone brings the legals forward, SISU are told to fucking pack it in as they haven't got a solid case, the EFL find them unfit owners and fuck them off, the club is sold and the new owners strike a deal with our landlords to stay in Cov ?!

You're right. Much better to have the club chucked out the league and cease to exist. That'll really show Tim and Joy.

I don’t think it’s possible for the football league to remove them and aren’t likely to want the legal fight that would come after

It's in Joy's hands (and Nicky's) to stop that. She could do so almost immediately. Or she can try every judge in the world until one says she has a point. Then again Nicky could see that the legals will carry on whether we're there or not.

Though perhaps the increasing threat of relegation from a league with just 1 relegation slot is weighing more on his mind

If Wasps have millions to pay back in terms of loans / mortgage whatever then this doesn't sound like CCFC are propping them up if thats all we contribute. Not sure if im missing something? My question being are CCFC financially much of a loss for Wasps if they left the Ricoh?

Wasps failure to qualify for Europe will do them more financial damage than City leaving.
But, put the two together and add falling attendances, and you start to see a financial shit show developing.... Shame.
