The bloke's a grade A prick, and not fit to wipe Jimmy Hill's arse, let alone use his name in his Twitter handle.

I see that a few pubs in Leamington and Warwick have temporarily changed their names to a Wasp theme to mark the last game of the season.
Examples: The Cape of Good Hope to The Cape of Goode Hope (Warwick)
The Fox and Vivian to The Wasps and Vivian (Leamington)
The Fat Pug to The Fat Wasp (Mr Jones - I expect you to be having a word!)
The Millwright Arms to The Maulwright Arms (Warwick)

Just in case anybody wished to give those pubs a swerve !

Big shame about the Cape of Good Hope - love their scotch eggs, but may not have one for a while!

I don’t get the reference, Goode? Meaningless.
I hear a couple of coventry pubs are doing the same...
‘The hope and wankers’
‘The shitty arms’ etc etc

Apparently in honour of Andy Goode, alleged Wasps' "legend" (and Leicester Tigers, Saracens, Worcester, Brive and Cov Colts). He now does PR for Wasps, i think.

Never heard of him.
On the pub theme. I went into the Royal Oak in earlsdon the night before the Shrewsbury game. It felt like I’d walked into wasps hq. I no longer live in cov so had not experienced that before. Is this common/true of other pubs?

It's weird - as i said in some thread a while back, you go somewhere like Gloucester, rugby is very much still the working man's game, and all the former mining communities in the Forest of Dean have their rugby clubs and silver bands, almost like the Welsh valleys.
I think Cov RFC is a bit like that too - but W*sps fans are a different kettle of fish altogether!

Horse and jockey is pretentious, not many houses around so has to try and have a selling point. Think the owner there now is into rugby as well.

Used to be bikers there but not sure if they still go

I won’t be going back there in a hurry. Not that I used to go there when I lived in cov tbh.
The Albany was my pub but that now appears to be a some sort of ‘fun bar’!

Yes that’s it.

Not exactly my definition of pretentious

I think when they first cane here there were coach trips to the ground and back to attract people. I’d guess like a lot of other places have found interest has dropped massively after the first year - the landlord is a rugby fan

Used to go there a lot in the summer back in the day. Guess he's trying to get your lot from the posh ends to park there after going down the lanes.

Yeah, I live in wales. There’s certainly a different vibe about rugby here. The place pretty much grinds to a halt during the internationals.

It’s ridiculous they aren’t even aware of their hypocrisy. Presumably they’d be in full support of CCFC impacting upon a local sports team in Cornwall if a readymade stadium existed there.

With all of the problems we have, the last thing we need is our own fans siding with a London rugby club that took ownership of a stadium purpose built for us.

They are more interested in the politics of it than ccfc it's self.

Sadly not, just another account that's always been used to try and keep duggins public opinion ticking over.

Over time they have got more and more desperate. Even to the point he is retweeting himself and liking etc.

I mean again Is there a middle ground? Could sisu say we made the complaint and if any legal action arises - they’ll pay for the legal costs - but not the resulting decision.

After all the promise was to stop legal action

I tend to agree with Nicks theory that all the 3 JR's trying to get the british courts to rule were just a means to an end to get the EC to take up the case of state aid
as the british courts are all about points of law? However the EC are quite specific about the entire issue of State Aid and the EC could not consider the complaint unless all the other avenues had been considered and now they will at no cost to SISU do what SISU have been trying to state all along. The State cannot make loans to Businesses to Disadvatage other interested parties in a bidding process! Not just British clubs in the Rugby Premeir league is it

Haha! Just googled that, you’re not lying!
He’s got a younger brother coming through the academy, le petite bourgeois (I am lying).
I’d always thought of rugby union as a toffs game in England. I’ve realised that assessment probably isn’t entirely true but that it’s not really played ‘up north’ possibly tells us something?

iI can't be arsed to read 19 pages of he said she said so if anything I have put below has already been said my apologies.
So if DisMay manages to get the BREXIT vote through next week and we leave, where does it leave any EU ruling? Even if she doesn't get it through but we leave in a years time under a new PM it's unlikely the EU will of undertaken any investigation never mind come to a conclusion. It takes them years to decide if it should have lunch at 12 or 1pm. It looks like just another delaying tactic to me.
So to summarise,
Wasps cunts
Council bigger cunts
SISU biggest cunts (move around as per your whim)
