I meant the conference bit, the pavilion is obviously not going to create any jobs as a "legacy".

Food outlets created = rental income for little old Wasps

Wonder if it's worth asking the council what the net effect on jobs is, given Wasps made a number of redundancies in the last 12 months

Would have thought that the existing people would just go in there, guess they could put the price up to them a little bit more because of one more outlet.
They would just chuck some of the existing staff in as well I assume.
Cost benefit analysis as Grendel would say

100%.
Will they answer though? If it was a lot you would think they would put it in the press release, they usually go mad for a bit of job creation numbers.
Should all appear in the CBA !

When is that made public?

I guess it needs to go through the PR company first.

Tough crowd.
I actually feel sorry for you. You’re a bright bloke but you’ve continually been walking down fucking dead ends with your choices recently.
It’s the only thing you’ve been consistent with....except with perhaps; hurling abuse when you’re called out and repeatedly barking on about being accused of being a SISU apologist once...like we’re meant to think you’re impartial now. Then you have brass balls to talk about ‘teams’.
I’ve stuck to my opinion on SUSU/Council/Wasps/The Trust and the Ricoh ..and I haven’t been given a reason to change it. In fact, everything I’ve seen over the years, and recently has cemented it. And no, I’m not entrenched, I’m just sure of what I see, read and feel. I’m wide fucking open for a change of heart if I see a reason for one.
You, however are not impartial, you’re just someone that’s been pinning your donkey’s tail on the wrong fucking arse.

Unless he removes the Tory support from CCC it is just a political flag waving exercise
He also needs to come out and comment on the "grant" and his view on the financial benefits to the City of Coventry

Isn't it the same Gary Ridley who has been hiding behind Duggins for years?

When Duggins was bullshitting about the condition of sale being only 4 years, Ridley said this:
Fuck off.

I think it must be, the same bloke is on record saying things a lot different to that.
So, what's changed their mind all of a sudden?

FTFY. Kind of left out the key bit.
Clearly everyone in the council on both sides of the aisle think that Sisu are being litigious for no good reason and should STFU and play at the Ricoh. I’ll leave why they think that up to you.

I think everybody has already decided why you are acting so desperate on these threads.
Ridley has done a U Turn.

If you believe that makes a difference perhaps you can explain how the Conservative councillor voting to sell sell the Ricoh to Wasps has helped our situation?

Again you have trouble distinguishing between me giving an opinion and me clarifying what was actually said.
Im just pointing out that this statement is just a repeat of what was said in previous joint statements. It’s just restating their position, which seems to be: Sisu need to STFU and agree a rental deal at the Ricoh.
On the Ricoh the position is: We couldn’t agree with Sisu, they said they didn’t want it, so we sold to Wasps and if Sisu stop trying to sue everyone then nothing is stopping CCFC playing there.
These have been the positions for years, unchanged.

What’s the U-Turn? I don’t see the difference between that statement and all the other ones TBH.

The same as his old man plotting with Haskell / ACL and Hoffman. How did that one turn out?
Nick

Because all of the other ones have been joint with Duggins, for starters.

Yeah it's really that simple.
Fucking hell, go and have a day off because you are embarrassing yourself.

Seen an opportunity with public tide turning I'd imagine.
They are elected members and therefore public servants aren’t they, not civil servants?

Do you know what a U-Turn is?
Jesus this is painful. You say ' the same bloke is on record saying things a lot different to that ', so I've asked where that is. And because it's me you've shat your pants again. FFS. Not shitting up this thread with your nonsense, if you can't answer just don't reply.
Or more press openess?

I would assume the rules are the same if not tougher. Was first documented I found.

That's their issue, they think that people are going to believe that bullshit.
Probably correct mate. I wasn’t trying to be a pedant, just that most public sector employees, including civil servants have to declare any potential conflict of interest On an annual basis.
