Not to my knowledge no

I think for a time the club effectively locked the CET out (ironically during Gilbert's time). This meant that Reid got more info pushed his way but theirs certainly no wacky conspiracy like some think. I don't think there's any existing issue with the CET. I think a lot was probably turned around during Tom Leach's time with his contacts in the club.

I must have a bad recollection of it, I always thought when news broke and it was in the telegraph it would be Simon Gilbert and you would tend to get the opinion from the slant of Wasps or the Council. If the news was broken by les Reid and the obsvervor it would tend to be from the view point of SISU. If it was an a scoop by les it was definitely from SISU, I include Tim Fisher when I say SISU.

That’s what I assumed too. I like both Simon and Les

Yes Les was frequently breaking stories and it used to look like the source of these stories was SISU. I am not saying there was anything wrong with that a journalist has to make their money where they can. However for a while he was clearly their chosen media outlet and go to journalist. Hence why I am surprised there is nothing from him now.

Who was the bloke doing it in the coventry observer then I am sure he was called Les Reid, have I made a typo and you are taking the mick, hence the laughing faces?

I am saying he wasn’t a mouthpiece for Sisu

Gregbant the dodgy account goes along the standard lines. Shock.

Shock, Gregbant asks why Les Reid hasn't got an exclusive from SISU on the Ricoh return, considering he used to be their go to man (media outlet) for such stories. Although it seems some suggest this isnt correct 🤔.
Greg bant is dodgy 😂😂🤣🤣

What’s with the utter obsession with Les fucking Reid that a certain collection of weirdos have? He’s a journo who works for a free newspaper ffs

So the summary from the ITKs are that it's still on but Gilbert got his dates wrong.

Think Gilbert has been given information by someone who is generally aware but not directly involved in the fine details. This is the problem with leaks, it sets false expectation. Outside of the parties directly involved no-one will really know the exact timescale as there are information embargoes, etc in place. I don't think we'll have to wait too long though.

Maybe should have waited till make big annocument on radio in that case????

Their job is to pull listeners in. They have no accountability to any of the parties directly involved. They've done their job and it worked - more people listened on Friday. Outside that, as fans, they're in the same position as the rest of us.
