Has anyone else seen it?

I just saw it sail down Radford Road and my jaw nearly hit the floor.

Not sure if it's a WM Travel bus adorned in Wasps' colours, or it's Wasps' own bus, but it is a double decker bus completey covered in yellow and black and I mean the whole bus, not just an advertising banner and it has Wasps written all over it. It looked identical to a WM Travel bus, so maybe it is one, but it looked completely brand new too.

Completely shocked me as well as annoying me of course.

Right. Guess it's their own bus then.

It appeared to have school kids on. They're not providing school buses are they?

I still find it bizarre that there is so much apathy on here towards them trying to poach fans.

Ccfc fans I know in real life detest them

What they've done isn't irrevocable, because I can't see them sustaining an interest level, however I too find them somewhat loathsome. I just choose not to debate about Wasps ad nauseum; I'd rather not give them the attention to be honest.

I just saw a Wasp liveried bus enter the Ring Road at the Foleshill Rd Junction, bright yellow with an insect logo on the side, hard to miss! I presume it was coming from the Ricoh cause Wasps had a match today I think.

First the take the stadium, next its the buses

Drove past the Parkgate pub in Holbrooks. It's having a mega makeover. All the windows had Wasp flags in, has this fallen to the egg chasers. I used to use it, and it was always Sky Blue.

Yeah I have seen it too, did wonder what was going on.

Has it been bought out?

Throw large cabbages and hot bovril at it, en masse, when it reaches the terminus. Then spray-paint a big Sky Blue middle finger on it.

Urban Terrorism for a truly warranted cause, comrades.

I think we just need to daub 'Swat the' in front of every Wasps logo/sign/poster.

Luckily enough you can do both.
CCFC fans I know in real life just enjoy the football.

The apathy is towards Sisu who are spooning you a new stadium in Rugby.

Obviously all ccfc fans are enjoying the football.

You're just a greedy hypocrite with suspect morals who is only interested in self-gain.

If for some reason I wanted to catch a bus if that one turned up I would wait for the next one or walk.

Equally the CCFC fans I know, enjoy the football and dont particularly like Wasps.

They arent apathetic to SISU, they want them gone like everyone else, its just they would like Wasps to go with them.

In an ideal world, Club gets new owners, and club gets the ground.

This is your opinion, not fact. Apathy is an incorrect term to apply to SISU; they're either hated or merely accepted - there is no grey area.

Why are you defending a franchise that has exploited a situation so underhandedly as Wasps have, to acquire a stadium that, by rights, they have no business trying to acquire? I'm not a businessman, nor is my business acumen anything to write home about, but I know when I see an opportunistic bunch of vultures trying to trample our club into the dirt.

Your allegiance is very clear, and how you can call yourself a fan of CCFC is beyond me.

I'm not defending them. I go and watch them.
I'm saying the deal is done and now we need to work with them as we have no choice.

If your plan is for Wasps to fail and Sisu get the stadium then you are misguided.

Giving them your money is a lot worse than merely defending them.

Wasps will fail, it's a question of when not if - whether CCFC get the stadium or not, I don't know.

I'd rather be misguided than a egg-chasing sell-out, thanks.

No, because if we go to them for a good long term deal and that's the our plan ..................... guess what ?

Don't put any money on it.
There is only one winner unfortunately in a SISU Vs Wasps/CCC battle.
