What I really want to see us the commercial evaluation that shows this is even financially viable. They must have some costings and some revenue benefit evaluation - let’s be honest this is bollocks
Completely agree. Said before that its an easy let off for SISU when people just laugh when a new stadium is mentioned or say it will never happen. Would be much better if people were pushing them to show how it will actually work.

“Significant progress was made at that meeting, and the EFL have been updated regarding the positive steps that have been made and have welcomed the news.”

That’s the paragraph. All about keeping the EFL onside. Nothing more

Its all strange , 6 paragraphs of nothing and no further forward than the previous communication 7 months ago. Just don’t understand why Warwick uni would put their name to something that was bullshit?

A few people on twitter seem to have bought it completely.

Tommo. Do you expect them to come out and name a site and show detailed plans right now.
Due to our beloved CCC (who can still be obtuse and difficult here despite the likelihood of land not being in their land) and their network of friends and their desire to shaft all things Joy Sepalla related , keeping things, no matter how small, or big is something that has to happen.
I obviously agree the jury is out... but again, Warwick haven't yet backed out of this, and we have seen evidence of prior meetings in October too. (Zoom pics where boddy is at Ryton with the lg1 trophy on top of the cupboard, joy joining in with a local media too...)

If you think it's gonna happen like this post. If you think it ain't ready with poo.

Come on Shep. There’s absolutely nothing in this.

Their reputation isn't really on the line. If it doesn't happen, it will be either because of SISU or the council or matters out their hands, Warwick can just say they were willing to move forward but SISU pulled out or planning wasn't granted and be done with it.

But if it was bullshit they wouldn’t be associated to it so surely this has something more than just a chat.

Why would that be a problem. Surely the best scenario is a deal with wasps to play at the Ricoh with a break clause to move to new stadium at uow? Those two sets of discussions are not mutually exclusive

Didnt say they were mutually exclusive or that it was a problem. My point is that CCFC and Wasps/CCC are on very frosty terms, yet there’s probably still more contact. There’s literally been no advance on this new update. And my money is on no new stadium.

Yep it does feel the only new information is they’ve met. Really bare minimum and I’m sure the initial statement said there wouldn’t be an update unless there was some concrete progress. Who really knows anything apart form Ms Seppalla

Not sure if this has been mentioned anywhere yet?


Wasps position strengthened as Bondholders appear to have let them off the hook. A blow to our supposed strategy I feel.

Might be complete bullshit, or might be some truth behind it. At the moment, I'm happy to give them the benefit of the doubt until something concrete comes along. Find it hard to believe they would go this far then completely lose any credibility with ALL fans down the line.

All they have to do is wait a couple of years and announce another new stadium project, most fans will forget all about the last set of plans. Especially if the team’s playing well at the time.

But don't forget that evil sisu have manipulated the uni into making these joint statements, probably by kidnapping puppies and holding them for ransom before joy turns them into handbags.......

Your logical reasoning has no place here

I think without a stadium (or at least being away from Coventry), fans aren't going to be as forgiving if nothing concrete has been confirmed or no progress made in the next year or so.
We also have to think how long we'll survive if it's just vague stadium plan after stadium plan going forwards?

I still think the Ricoh is the end goal somehow, and this announcement is just something to keep fans on side as well as bring to the negotiating table.

Some seem to be forgiving now, after nothing concrete being confirmed, or progress being made in the past six years or so.

That's true, but imo at least with the uni announcement there is something (admittedly very little) that can be scrutinised rather than just the "we're looking at a few areas in Cov" we've had in the past.

Surely Sisu are going to have to show a bit more progress some time soon though as it's just not going to be sustainable spending more years outside of the city and we need an actual plan in place

The issue is commitment - whatever there is cost involved in getting to any stage - money not exactly rolling in from anywhere at the moment - planning , architect etc will all cost - if the team improves its performance which it will - investment will be easier to come by - sadly the lest expensive option investment wise would be to be at the Ricoh - I don’t know enough to have an opinion on either

Holy fuck 🤣 you can't honestly believe that?

If so I win my bet and you have to be a troll account (or actually a 14 year old kid)

Why? You seem taken in by the nonsense
