What's the wasps shop like? Can we move in there?

Went to Watford away, their club shop was banging in fairness. Caught my eye, I wanted to look and I'm not a fan. Ours is sort of hidden.

10mm nuts and a cross head screwdriver would do the job.

Nuts on the seat, cross head for the backs, or the other way around. Beer makes me forget.

I actually checked.

1 game day witha few committed fans

For a start Wasp signs gone and club and ticket shop where the home fans are and not next to the away fans.

Went to a sports direct today in Manchester. It was actually smart. He must be trying to shift the brand, see also the new Christmas advert (not some sugar sweet shite the other highstreet brands pedal!)

Peoples go to is always SportsDirect ignoring the fact that Flannels, 18Montrose, USC, House of Fraser etc. are also part of his group.

The new one in Birmingham is nothing like the ‘normal’ SD stores either.

Bought an expensive jacket online from Cruise (the actual shop is in Glasgow) but the same shop effectively as Flannels (which used to be Cruise Flannels I think) a few years ago. My bank stopped the payment and phoned me cos it came up as Sports Direct.

One thing that hopefully gets underway quickly is the repair work needed on the parts of the complex that need it.

Old SD stores were like primark, the new ones an actual shop. Ones in Cov are shite, bet the new one is decent

I’d be happy to see that sign with the big Red Cross over it. Keep it where it is as a reminder of what City fans have been through.

I think it's obvious what he will do. We shouldn't pretend otherwise. The 1st thing Ashley did at St James Park was plaster it in Sports Direct branding. The 1st thing Newcastles owners did was get rid of it. The same is going to happen to us.

Were we still at Highfield Road, then I might be upset about this. But let's be honest, the Arena has always had a corporate identity plastered all over it, be it Ricoh or the CBS. It's not like when he caused a ruckus changing the name of St James's Park, because it's always had a sponsor in the name anyway.
