Will Trust and Rob s be at Ricoh today (1 Viewer)

Does it. Read it again.

They've obviously changed it because it said permanent on Thursday.

Edit: it was from wasps themselves, oh and yes they have only played at the Ricoh once for a semi final (both were held at the Ricoh?so you can stop using that to justify the move:


Wasps have spent the last 12 years at Adams Park, High Wycombe, but have been looking for a new home.
In an earlier statement the club said: "Wasps has made no secret of our desire to find a permanent home which reflects the ambitions of the club."
However, it said ongoing discussions meant it could not comment further.
The club has previously played at the Ricoh, attracting a crowd of more than 21,000 for a Heineken Cup match in 2007.

That suggests to me any move to the Ricoh will be a permanent one. Comments from cov rugby on the radio before the game suggest it's permanent too.

Like I said missing the point. I'm saying that in reality wasps may be as about involved in this as Colonel Sanders is in cooking your family bucket.

Still lost me.

You use an example of a franchise and go on about how it's more financially viable for Wasps to play in Coventry than London...

What matters about the cash? Why should Wasps play in Coventry full-stop? This is not sport, this is business and your analogies prove this... thus leaving us open to exactly the same standards.

I'm not justifying the move. I'm questioning if there will actually be one or at least a permanent one.

You've used the word suggest when really it's assume.

No. I used an example of a front. Colonel Sanders doesn't cook the chicken despite his face being on the box. You added the franchise scenario all by yourself.

The rest of your post is an assumption of what will happen if the takeover of ACL is successful. What facts are you actually basing that assumption on? I don't believe we actually know any facts. All we have is a lot of sound bites and half truths that has been just enough to cause mass hysteria amongst our fan base.

Should we not actually find out what we're opposing before we oppose it?

Seems to me any old excuse to protest the council !
Shouldn't our priority be a protest at Sisu to find out what their future plans are for the club ?
Seems to me people are more worried about wasps than CCFC !!!!

 

[torchomatic]

Or in your case ACL.
