That’s bullshitBut Again if I was the person managing the contract with the third party the delivery to my company would be down to me. Not them - me
I don't think anyone is blaming Boddy more than Wasps, so I don't know where you are getting that from.
Both have stated it will be ripped up at the end of the seasonWhenever the next SCG meeting is, or whatever its called now, can someone ask what the plan is for next season as this seems to be patching it up to get us through this season. Sounds like it really needs ripping up and starting again but if Wasps are broke is that going to happen next summer.
Don't want to be sat here this time next year talking about home games being called off.
That’s bullshit
you’re not judged by their performance, you’re judged by how you manage their performance
You said it would be down to you if a 3rd party just didn’t turn up with a delivery. It’s nonsense, it’s be down to you to manage the performance of them and come up with the contingency plan and manage the vendor performance.You are mixing up blame and accountability so with respect it’s you whose talking bullshit

You can’t control everything and stop it all from happening
But of course you’ve got some very odd obsession with Dave boddy so you’ll continue to blame everything on him no matter the situation so I shan’t waste too much energy in this
I have no obsession with Boddy - if it was Fisher or Waggott I’d be entirely consistent in my response - others I suspect would not as for some reason he’s viewed as different (his actions or inactions prove otherwise)
On May 13 Red flags should have been triggering everywhere and contingency strategies being developed
Again I refer the dishonourable gentleman to his defence of Boris. It's not him, it's his role (well, actually, it was him as well)..Again it’s not him it’s his role. CEO is accountable
But could they actually call it off without actual confirmation from a ref/expert? Otherwise we're into points deductions territory. And I imagine the don't do the inspections too early in case it improves (as I imagine they're not used to having pitches in this poor a state that it's pretty much dead).I'm not making myself clear, we've had 3 games called off, if the pitch is that bad then they must have known at least a couple of weeks ago.
The late Rotherham announcement would have been fine if it was a close run thing and Wigan was on, but the pitch must have been in a terrible state and I'm sure they knew it would be some time before it was playable, they clearly could have put people in the loop a lot quicker than they have.
That will make CCFC a creditor when/if Wasps go into administration.Post on Wasp bondholders forum that the cost of the repair will be paid initially by CCFC and Wasps will have to repay the £180,000 or so by agreement.
Boils down to wasps hoping to get away with it because they haven’t got a pot to piss in.
I would think our new owner Mr Jordan will have something to say about thatThat will make CCFC a creditor when/if Wasps go into administration.

I planned a wedding. It was on the cheap and very relaxed. I still checked the venue months then weeks then days before the day. I checked the caterers. Everything. You don’t just book it and hope for the best of you’re managing a project.
Why would he be going on about Hereford?Yep and you would be the first to moan if the strategy included moving and gone on about Hereford etc etc.
Hmm, tbf mine got cancelled because of a national lockdown, and I don't think I was responsible for *that*!I planned a wedding. It was on the cheap and very relaxed.

Whenever a statement comes out (regardless of whether it is from Wasps/CCFC/SISU/EFL) saying "parties are in discussion/working on something", with no substance, it is usually condemned as being a "waste of time" and "why don't they just concentrate on sorting things out and tell us when they've got some proper news".
They can't win in a situation where its obviously going to be negative news.
What happens if you could only use 1 venue and 1 caterer?

True, although there's one or two I'd have liked to have gone to an empty church...I seem to recall you being on stressing about it for weeks. I assume you didn’t inform guests the day before it was off.
Then I’d check twice as much so any problems were identified early and other stakeholders can be notified.
My wedding reception venue cancelled on us a week before the wedding…..I planned a wedding. It was on the cheap and very relaxed. I still checked the venue months then weeks then days before the day.

Not sure that excuse is going to fly when you’ve already been married multiple times in every wedding venue in the local area.
You have a point - The club not owning the ground was always a high risk situation, which should have been included in their risk assessments.Then I’d check twice as much so any problems were identified early and other stakeholders can be notified.
I also refer the honourable gentleman to the last decade of me bitching about how the club have willingly given up control of the ground situation with no signs of rectifying it.
I think that’s fair and accepted by DB that he could have acted quicker during the summer. The caveat being even on the Monday when Bristol game moved SV was questioning the pitch being unacceptableI planned a wedding. It was on the cheap and very relaxed.

Have you read the ccfc statement?So you’d rather they just say nothing then?
Find it weird that the same people who throw their toys out of the pram every time the media is silent on their pet peeve story du jour are perfectly happy with the club itself being silent on much more basic/fundamental stuff. But if people think the club’s communication has been brilliant here then that’s their prerogative - we get the club we deserve.
Oh so now it is going to be blame the club for not sorting a groundshare somewhere else?
Have you read the ccfc statement?
Of course. I’m not suggesting the club confirm things prematurely, especially when things were fluid, I’m suggesting they communicate what’s going on behind the scenes and what timescale they’re working on to give people a bit of clarity.
But again, if people would rather know nothing, that’s up to them.
