This is what I mean about not using the right legal terms. No one is suing wasps right now but the point of the state aid claim is to open up the chance to sue in future.
Put aside pedantry about terms for a minute, the overarching issue here is Sisu want to try and reverse the sale of the lease to Wasps and Wasps don’t want that, can we agree on that?
Whether that is done by suing Wasps directly, complaining about the council, or some other route, is irrelevant. It’s the general principle. You can’t just say “I won’t do anything against Wasps” and leave a massive loophole where you can achieve the same thing by attacking someone else. That’s the issue. The club don’t want to relinquish those rights and Wasps do.
So when you say “aha! It’s not a legal process iamverysmart!” You’re missing the point entirely. When you say “aha!The state aid complaint can’t be withdrawn iamverysmart!” You’re missing the point entirely.
What Wasps are asking for (and again I should make it clear I’m not making a value judgement about that request just tying to get the facts clear) is a wide ranging promise that Sisu won’t try anything, legal or not, directly against Wasps or not, that would result in the Ricoh sale being reversed. Then Wasps can go to lenders and say “That whole thing is cool guys, I’m not a risk”.
Ive got to say, this whole conversation would go a lot smoother if you could stop trying to be clever and snarky and just state clearly what you think the situation is and your reasoning for it.
Yes, the legal terms are purposely being said incorrectly to push a viewpoint. They have been for months by Wasps so the "the landlords are being sued" crap can be pushed.
WASPS ARE NOT BEING SUED
THINGS ARE ONLY REVERSED IF CCC ARE IN THE WRONG
Look at his massive, fuck off contradiction. It is you being pedantic for a change.
It is not about being clever, it is seemingly you trying to be clever. You still haven't said what I have said to him that's factually incorrect.
You are trying too hard, as is he.
