As shared earlier in the thread I've had the same with other similar neanderthals unable to answer any questions about their own leadership & just trotting out "But Sisu".
It's Weber Shandwick type shit all over again.

Those types are rapidly using up the sympathy there was for the ordinary folk who have been affected by the whole shitshow.

The difference is if you asked 100 city fans if we had good owners at least 99 would tell you our owners are shit. If you asked 100 Wasps fans if their owners had done a single thing wrong the majority would tell you they're fantastic.

The entitlement continues.

Leicester tigers have offered free tickets to wasps staff and season tickets. this is the response.....

"Tigers can get stuffed. How about help where they can to get the club back up and running rather than feasting on the remains for fans and players"

"
They have already been canvassing Wasps' club and player sponsors as well this week!

Shocking behaviour from a "fellow" Premiership Rugby Club in times like this for Wasps Fans - exactly why I have always hated them as a club back from the 90's.

Why on earth would a true Wasps Fan want to go and watch Tigers?

If that's their attitude, I hope they enjoy the lost revenue coming their way from no home games for the next few weeks!!"

In normal circumstances I’d say that was disgusting by Leicester tigers like vultures over a still warm corpse.

But on this occasion I say carry on until every bone is dry.

"something to go again next season", Telegraph on top of the details as ever. That could mean anything.

Can't see them back in the Premiership. Absolute best case scenario is the Championship but can they escape their debts? If its someone just buying the name and starting a new club wouldn't they have to start at the bottom again?

I hope they do start again back in London to prove the point moving to other towns and cities dosnt work. The thing is they haven't got a ground. football league sides Hereford, Chester, Aldershot, Darlington. Glasgow Rangers all started back down the ladder but had a stadium

Went to pick up my Watford ticket from the stadium earlier, couldn't help notice the tattiness of the stadium from the outside, Wasp badges over old City ones (you can still see the outline) dirty rainwater stains on the cladding from poor drainage, sun stains on the blue cladding making them different colours, rubbed out Ricoh stains, Looks really poor all over.

If there’s no promotion/relegation, will there be room in the championship for them, maybe they’ll need to go lower to start with?

I’m sure if SISU were to say: “if we secure the stadium would local builders / industrial painters / sign makers / cleaning companies help out; we will stick a plaque up / stick a write up about your business in our program etc.” Then we could have it looking a lot better for less than £20m.

You could probably buy a slot in the program for less than 2 hours work.

The Telegraph understands that something may/may not happen in regards to Wasps being taken over. That they may/may not be relegated or may/may not lose the P Share.

I too walked around the other week for my Burnley ticket as I'd come home for the day (I live in North Staffs) and was shocked how horrible the arena looked.

Crass insensitive comments.

Didn't wasps cut a lot of staff previously? If so those re employed or new staff probably have under 2 years service and no redundancy pay coming. Just when the economy tanks and inflation hits 10%.

Not funny at all, but he still has a job but hey thats ok

In these circumstances, in any administration, it is always the wrong people paying a disproportionate price
