Club Statement regarding EFL vote and stadium situation (7 Viewers)

[SkyBlueCRJ]

I admire your confidence, CRJ, and hope it isn't misplaced.
I think you're right that they can't (or rather, really shouldn't) use the EC investigation again, as they've already cried wolf over that one.
I hope they are just negotiating on the actual terms of the agreement at face value, not the other detritus.
MAYBE they have managed to plug the leak in their confidentiality agreement, which is why Giblet, Perry and Co have nothing to guess about?

I wouldn't say I'm confident, far from it. It's more that I've been keeping tabs on the patterns of play in this whole mess. Usually when things go quiet that means they're talking. It's when things begin flaring up, that's when you need to worry about Wasps playing silly buggers.

The issue is I don't think Gilbert was guessing or that there was a leak, I suspect he was being fed snippets of info on purpose to push an agenda, but I can only guess from which camp that might be.

I wouldn't recommend it ...

Was once in the same restaurant as Trish Adudu when she was out with pals. It was her birthday so she's allowed to be a bit 'everybody look at me' but bloody hell she's got some voice on her, if they ever cut the radio signal people within 500 yards of the station would still hear every word.

article in the CET, nothing really new and it looks as though it could rumble on for at least another week - fuckin' great.

Ricoh Arena row: New deadline set as talks rumble on

 

[stgeorge1966]

There is a EFL meeting on Thursday and Friday this week so i would of though it will be sorted one way or another before the end of this week

What does Boddy mean that he can't say when the EFL deadline is for reasons of confidentiality? Isn't it a matter of public record for all clubs, or have we been given some kind of extension? Does Donald Tusk work for EFL as well as the European Council?

Probably means he doesn't want Wasps to know the date the EFL have given them so they can play more games

I take that to mean the deadline is earlier than the next meeting or perhaps it's on the agenda Friday so deadline is Thursday

Just a guess

 

[fernandopartridge]

The next deadline is for the compilation of the fixture list, though it's a bit of a red herring really as no doubt these things can be revisited as they were in 2014.

Would you want the club to be a pushover?

My flag came for next season

 

[chiefdave]

Love it. Like the new Cover Rugby badge, pretty clear message there. Hows it gone down with the fans? I'm assuming better than when some idiot tried to change ours.

In the bogs?

The message is just going back to the original and roots with a modern twist for marketing. Probably 60/40 with fans, although some still turning.

The current badge (not that old) didn't even say Coventry Rugby.

Been told today is the day !!!

Groundhog Day?

I hope you are right, good news?

 

[no_loyalty]

Been told today is the day !!!

Fingers crossed we get the right result.

 

[Covkid1968#]

Can’t face any more mocking from the Brummie’s at work.... please let it be good news and soon.

I seriously can’t imagine it being this quiet and a deal not being done!!!!

 

[OffenhamSkyBlue]

Been told today is the day !!!

You realise how much of a mug you are gonna look if it doesn't happen, don't you?
Here's hoping for good news.
Maybe Wasps were just waiting to see how much compo they were likely to have to pay out if the Spice Girls gigs REALLY went tits up!

 

[OffenhamSkyBlue]

Anyone listening down here???

 

[Liquid Gold]

Been told today is the day !!!

By who?

 

[ajsccfc]

Someone else saying similar, I'm always stuck between not wanting to get my hopes up and the optimism of maybe there being something to it.

Looks like a load of bollocks to me

Probably the same bloke.

 

[SkyBlueCRJ]

You know it's utter tosh when they say: "never post anything like this"

 

[bradwellskyblues]

i was told we will be put out of our misery by friday

 

[ajsccfc]

It's when someone asks 'why would I lie?' that the alarm bells instantly go off for me.

 

[clint van damme]

i was told we will be put out of our misery by friday

that was nothing to do with the Ricoh deal.

 

[OffenhamSkyBlue]

At least he accepted "it might be bullshit"! So why post it then, twat?

 

[ajsccfc]

Without bullshit, Twitter would get about 5 posts a day.

 

[OffenhamSkyBlue]

So should every tweet have the first 24 characters embedded by default "It might be bullshit but ..."?
