I really can't see Wasps getting any grants, unless it's for essential infrastructure upgrades. Also don't see how they're going to get a lender to restructure their debts. I imagine come the deadline the can is going to be kicked down the road, with little to no information given to bondholders. Who knows what the end game is though.

Hi guys ! Just wondering why so many Sunday games this season .Cancelled trains and disruptions to normal train schedules caused by works on the track undertaken on the weekend, makes a fun day out at the Arena less likely these days !! The odd Sunday you can understand but three home games over September/October are all on a Sunday - just didn't see this coming !!

I personally think that as the football team bring more people and generates more money. It only makes. Business sense to request that we play out home games in Sundays when there is a clash. I must admit I have checked the football team fixture list.

Please can we come back south. It was soo much easier back then.

Sting 21 July, 2022 18:02
Can anyone give me an idea when tickets for the first home game will be on sale.
I know it's early, but if anyone got any info I would appreciate it.
Thanks Eamonn

With the attendances lately, if you phone up and ask what times the kick off is, they usually say
'What time can you get here'

A bland, meaningless 'statement' telling their sweating bondholders that everything is in hand, I would imagine.

I haven't renewed my ST - poor fan experience at the stadium, team inconsistent [to say the least] and a real pain to get to and from Bury St Edmunds [especially with fuel where it is]. Looking forward to going to the gardens and Welford Rd - proper rugby grounds with a proper rugby atmosphere”

Doubt it’s the only one.

Is today the day when we are supposed to find out whether and how much public money is going to be wasted on trying to delay the inevitable to try protect the reputation of Reeves & co from the scale of Wasps failure?

Is there no bondholders regulator or anything that can force them to pay back or at least gain bondholder approval for this constant delay?

Seems mad that you can raise finance like this then just not pay it back.

Have they given a reason for their inaction?

Who appoints the trustees?

The failure to deliver the work to make the Arena ready for the games that they were granted money for is an absolute scandal which the local media just seem so blasé about.

How embarrassing that at Coventry's chance to represent itself in a major sporting event they've got a temporary gazebo!

I understand that a significant proportion of the bondholders (requiring organisation) need to instruct the trustees to act. The trustees themselves require indemnifying against the costs of such action. Looks like the majority of the bondholders are, so far, nervously sitting tight hoping for a favourable outcome - action could crystallise their losses.

The roof has been done on that side but its clad with decals. Not sure it's £5m worth.



What about the new hall that was for Judo, has that been done?

Look at the state of the place, it needs a good clean. The most basic of maintenance has just been left by both Wasps and Higgs/Council who owned it previously.

Shit like this happens to Wasps but seemingly nobody else. Remember when they wanted to a build a hotel? Planning permission turned down for a hotel about 250m away then gave Wasps a lease on the car park because we urgently needed a hotel for City of Culture.

The lease actually went to a Richardson personal company not WASPS. Asset shifting?

It requires 25% of bondholder value to get Trustee to act But the bondholders have not told how they get to that 25% as the Registet is not public
