They must be totally embarrassed with the damage wasps are creating in Coventry and potential damage to their brand? Is Gary Hoffman still in charge? If so, I wonder if he can kick some wasps backsides?

Hoffman left years ago

Hoffman left years ago

Did he??? Thought he was chairman of CBS and although you think him as being a clown, be careful as he might just one day be running the Club. He is a lifelong Sky Blues fan.

Wikipedia says he is still in charge of the cbs.

Think he retired

Didn't he announce his retirement a year before he's actually retiring or something strange like that.

He left his position as Chairman at the end of April after it was announced last year.

It’s a pity CBS can’t find find the funds to buy the stadium, run it efficiently and rent it to CCFC. They must have more than enough cash.

tbf that wouldn't go down overly well with some of the shareholders (me!)

Pin money to them, they made around £158 m profit before tax in 2021 alone. Buy out Wasps on the cheap for £20m and pack them off back down South to rent off someone else.

 

[chiefdave]

CBS aren't going to do anything that's not likely to make them money and buying the Arena is not an attractive investment to them.

The problem with anyone buying it is going to be the bonds. You're looking at £35m minimum just so Wasps can clear that, compare that to what Wasps paid.

In other news, their instant access account is now paying a massive 1.10%

I wonder if there are clauses in CBS’s naming agreement regarding a disrepute to the brand.
Secondly, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a term that requires wasps to have CCFC as tenants

I get 1.55% in my CBS account from 1st Sept
