I remember when my mates who used to go to Wasps spotted him up there, I posted on here that he was there and he denied it, bullshitter.
Some die hard fans still believing
Will Covtel be putting this on their site?
Premiership clubs facing bankruptcy and some considering breakaway league
Update on the training centre planning application for the site in Henly from Henley Sports Centre Alliance.
Currently objections far outweigh support. Interestingly of the 6 comments in favour, saying it will benefit the area 3 are from Coventry, 1 from Kent, 1 from Wiltshire and 1 from Wellesbourne!
Anyone who wishes to comment can do so here:
Stratford-on-Avon District Council: Eplanning
EDIT: Just gone on there and read some of the comments. Its tragic, multiple detailed objections from locals (you have to supply your address) concerting loss of facilities, community use being part of the original planning approval, conflicts of interest etc while the few supporting comments include one that is just allez, allez, allez and comments that the objections are a coordinated campaign from our supporters.
They really don't get it do they?

I just read that comment. Basically anything negative is a certain football clubs fans and basicly the planning team should dismiss them. Sent from sone in burton on trent
Be fair Nick, its not just the promise of 10,000 free tickets. They're also going to let the riff riff in a couple of times a year to watch Wasps train.They seem to think that taking away a community sports centre is going to be covered by giving away free tickets.
If you challenge them about it on twitter you either get ignored, abuse or blocked. IMO its perfectly valid to question why the local newspaper is running daily stories trying to make things about the football club seem negative yet won't cover genuine newsworthy Wasps stories if they are negative.CET simply dont report any Wasps bad news stories.Nothing from Bobby Bridge

Think he's just been furloughed, but yes, otherwise you're quite correct.CET simply dont report any Wasps bad news stories.Nothing from Bobby Bridge
His last article was the 28th I think so not too long ago?Think he's just been furloughed, but yes, otherwise you're quite correct.
What date exactly? I’m really looking forward to seeing what happens.Bond interest due to be paid in approx. 2 weeks. Start digging down the back of the sofa for 1.1m

His twitter feed confirms he is furloughed
Ah OK, I must have missed that and it must have been in the last couple of days. Have any other reporters? If it is just the Wasps reporter then that would be interesting.
It still doesn't explain why things have been ignored, he even did a story about Lawrence Dallaglio on the 27th - 'Outstanding' - Newbold RFC's NHS mission gets rugby stars' support
Turners page suggests he’s still working
In November shareholders received their payments on 14th, this chat thread will be interesting to watch.What date exactly? I’m really looking forward to seeing what happens.
It's gone from looking possible that this could kill them to likely. I don't see a way out for them.
Wouldn't be at all surprised if CCFC get them more clicks than anything else. There's not that many Wasps fans to start off with let alone ones that can be bothered to read all the crap the Telegraph put out.Interesting.
Had a quick look through and the other people who tend to write articles have posted them in the last couple of days.
Maybe Wasps don't want to pay for PR as much now?
This is the root of the issue, somehow they all started to believe they're just a bit of marketing away from rivalling the Premier League.rugby deludes itself
"Brave man.
Wasps main problem before this awful virus was just the business model was broken - stadium too big, no play's offs, on and off field underperformance, the promises thus made to the city broken and a chasm between the business plan and actuality.
The virus has put the coup de grace. Unlike other clubs Wasps inherited various other underperforming businesses. All now toxic as punters have gone and premises closed - the Hotel, Casino, Exhibition and Conference centre. All with continuing costs, rents, rates, staff, and Wasps exposed as no other club is . Ok Exeter has a hotel but smaller scale.
It's unbelievably sad"
The rugby and football clubs will have to bury some of their grudges and try to come to an arrangement that suits both parties
Interesting on the wasps forum
One very good reply explaining quite a lot about how wasps are different to other clubs ie worse position.
The reply by someone was this.
I don't think we need to be looking at a deal with wasps to give them aload of money. They have made their bed and can lie in it.
That second guy - Dehumaniser - talks a lot of sense
is he related to Mark Billingham by any chance
Said this when they did the original bond issue, the danger was always there that by the time they needed to refinance there would be some actual trading history to look at rather than their fairy tale business plan. Everyone seemed to dismiss it and think they could just easily refinance but as I've said before the financial world could be very different when they come to try that. To be fair I was thinking more of the impact Brexit might have but now they've got this to deal with as well. Who is going to loan a shut down rugby club tens of millions?a chasm between the business plan and actuality.
Nothing but you'd think even our council would struggle to be that dump when there's an ongoing state aid issue. Anything that isn't transparent and open to all is going to be so obvious even the Telegraph would have to report on it.If the stadium falls back into the hands of CCC due to defaulting on bond, what is there to stop Wasps buying it again or even renting it from CCC (at a friends rate)? Bondholders get screwed, Wasps continue to play at the Ricoh, CET spin story, everyone just carrys on.
You would like to think so.......Nothing but you'd think even our council would struggle to be that dump when there's an ongoing state aid issue. Anything that isn't transparent and open to all is going to be so obvious even the Telegraph would have to report on it.

I agree with this completely. They tried to fuck our club over, stole our home and evicted us to Birmingham. We owe them nothing and if there is a possibility of some short term pain to take them out of the equation I'd deal with itInteresting on the wasps forum

The word 'just' covered it I think Nick. The tweet from him that I saw was just a few hours prior to my post.His last article was the 28th I think so not too long ago?
