He’s not going to publically be shouting it from the roof tops. He’ll know the type of person seppala is. He wants back into football - we’re his best chance

My guess is Ashley primary interest is CCFC with the stadium and he will pretend to be interested in Wasps to secure the deal.
The NEC deal would not include Wasps, which makes it less attractive to the egg chasers.
Once Ashley has secured stadium & CCFC he will shut Wasps down, as there is no money in rugby.

You're forgetting one thing. We are CCFC and things are never simple. Knowing our luck Ashley actually wants Wasps and will quadruple our rent to invest in them.

Fair point but with the NEC Group there is literally no chance. I did say if it's a choice between the two.

I like that the melt down on twitter has already started about Ashley owning us

Knowing our luck, we will think we are getting Mike, but end up with Laura.

Contracts will have schedules stating the length of any clause….. post that bye bye Wasps, unless they’re making a profit

I’m pretty surprised at how much excitement there is about Ashley having had talks with London Wasps - the changing of the narrative into us being the real interest shows just how desperate the fanbase has become.

Me too particularly that any of the parties are likely to offer £60M for an insolvent entity.

If the Ashley interest is true, and I'm dubious, his main interest is clearly the stadium but I would imagine out of us and Wasps we're clearly the more interesting project. Wasps is just some baggage in the form of a brown paper bag with a dog shit in it.

One full Sports Direct mug could be used to water the whole pitch

Tbh I don't think either club is a particularly attractive investment.

The energy at the moment is very much like watching a girl flirt with your mate and thinking "Well I'm sure she's only doing it to get close to me"

And so that was the choice that fell before me-to carry on by myself, or to make friends with the boy everyone now called ‘boner’.

Postponed until after the Ashley January spending spree? Sounds ideal.
