if there was a dislike button - that is a horrible image

 

[hill83]

Oh god, that picture. Egg chasing wankers.

 

[Nick]

That Haskell needs to wind his neck in before I go down and knock him spark out Scrawny little prick.*



*This is quite clearly a joke, I don't know him to call him a prick and I also know he isn't scrawny or little. I thought I would clear this up for the people on here who are a bit slow and struggle to read.

 

[skybluebeduff]

Will they have advertisements for Cauliflower Ear surgery all around the ground?

 

[torchomatic]

Who are they playing today? The crowd is bigger than I thought it would be. Still, not too far up the M40 is it?

 

[Monners]

Love the one man and his dog reference - TF's dog I wonder?

 

[Hobo]

I haven't got a problem with ground-sharing...as long at is with a local team or a national event. But agree with the sentiment, the Wasps deal is wrong.

Nick gets hard on a forum!

[Nick]

Can you not start rumours about how excited I get on forums

As I have said before Haskell is just a poor mans Tom Wood.

(this is a joke, as Haskell is a friend of MMM and I like to rib him about it, and Tom Wood is Cov lad who is vice captain of Northampton Saints and England and is clearly a better player than that lump Haskell )

 

[hill83]

I can't believe they've changed the seats already. This is an outrage.

 

[Moff]

Nice colours, and only about ten fans less than an average Wasps attendance.

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

I looked at this and thought you'd been working Photoshop Nick. Then I saw the video.

So you will back me up if him and his boys start mugging me off?*


*This is also a joke, I couldn't take him and he is probably a really nice bloke.

 

[Moff]

Note 'tough' Rugby player sheltering under an umbrella

NO its not Haskell is it......

 

[duffer]

Q: Where are all the Wasps (Franchise) RFC fans.
A: He's in the bog.

(Edit: Ah, Moff beat me to it in fairness. But I can offer his original joke a better home and a greater chance of success. I'm sure he'll understand.)

 

[jon92]

Delayed again for another half hour

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

Press conference delayed as their brand new CEO & MD have yet to arrive....

Hurry up Joy & Tim, its not like you two to be late......

 

[hill83]

Delayed again for another half hour

Probably nipped off to the toilets to slap eachothers arses and wank on a hob nob.

 

[Astute]

At least our players will be able to see each other more easily instead of our kit blending in with the sky blue seats.

 

[torchomatic]

So the move is 82 miles away, a whopping 164 mile round trip.

 

[Otis]

You have to feel for Wasps fans.

That's their supporters protest theme fucked then......no point holding up placards on 82 mins is there......:wave:

 

[torchomatic]

Well for Ann Lucas, CCC, quite a few people on here and on CWR, apparently not.

You have to feel for Wasps fans.

 

[Monners]

Dai Young indeed. One of my favourite Black Sabbath tracks from the post Ossie era - from the Heaven and Hell album if I recall.

JLR confirmed as Wasps sponsors.

 

[chiefdave]

That press release also says they are moving in December, that would be mid-season wouldn't it?

 

[chiefdave]

Apparently Wasps fans have been emailed and they are moving mid-season. They are being offered pro-rata season ticket refunds or free travel / food for home games.

Also says that Wasps own 50%.

 

[Otis]

Ooh, here we go. Conference to start!

Can't be. Grendel says 100%.

 

[chiefdave]

Can't be. Grendel says 100%.

Not seen it as it's gone to Wasps ST holders, just posting what they are saying on there forum so who knows but if Lucas is being reported as saying it is 50% and Wasps are saying the same then you would assume they would both know!

 

[The CableGuy]

I wonder if anyone from CCFC or CRC are there.
