Another interesting tidbit... I'm sure we all remember the Andy Goode PR overdrive about how successful Wasps are financially etc. & the arguments with our fans against Sisu etc.

He's subsequently deleted it all.

Has he deleted everything he said?

On the one hand it makes me think "fucking grifter knows he's been caught out, he should have the conviction to say that's what he thought and he's obviously wrong"

On the other hand though I have "haha if that shameless hack is cutting ties then they really are up sheet creek with no friends let alone a paddle"

Don't worry, Shmmeee doesn't post on this thread. He's far too busy checking his notes about the Bin Strikes thread, to check the notes about this one.

@shmmeee we have not heard your views on this development? What’s your view on public money potentially bailing out Wasps? I assume you are as outraged as when ccfc applied for the same? The forum awaits your opinion.

His selective anger is very interesting

Internet must have broken in Dubai.

You of all people know it hasn't as I've been reading all the gloats and speculation :) and the more sensible insightful stuff from OSB. Im happy to wait until we really know whats going on ! Although if there is something meaningful to discuss I'll discuss it ..... but right now there isn't.

The fuckin dinosaurs the council are, Wasps are bankrupt and bailing them out is just putting off the inevitable. Give some funding to CRFC to upgrade the Butts instead and turn into a proper decent city centre rugby stadium

Was just about to post this.

Old duggins is clearly going to be pushing it.

I haven't clicked the link, but I bet they drag citys name into it when justifying it, I knew this was going to happen. There needs to be riots, sorry no money for pay rises, here you go wasps, 13 million. Disgraceful.

I'm in for riots.

Can we start at City Arms and finish at Kasbah? You know, make like a pub golf themed rampage extravaganza.

Does Duggins have a financial interest in Wasps ?

Or he just likes waiting public money ?

Lost for words.... how is this even a thought from CCC.... (it should not be.. but no surprise that it is!!)
Does this mean that the WMCA bung is looking a bit shaky?....

I wouldn't be a bit surprised if the WMCA talk was just a ruse to get the idea out in the public and was never really a goer.

I would really like to know when did the Chief Executive receive this approach for funding by Wasps, and when did the councillors know about it?

I think dates are very important.

Class if Gilbert's found them out trying to do deals on the sly, 13m of tax payers money simply cannot be funded to a 10m a year loss making company, in no other industry would this be allowed to happen
