They've said its only speculation and they are exploring all options, that isn't an outright denial or dismissal

 

[Specs WT-R75]

Of course they don't deny it - it would weaken their hands when it comes to Wasps negotiations.

We have the upper hand over the franchise anyway, the stadium without ccfc is going to be far less attractive when trying to find someone to sponsor the stadium.

I don't know. Arent they Closely associated with Jaguar, and Jaguar already have a hand in at the Ricoh? (if the Jaguar Exhibition Hall is still called that of course.....)

It is still called that I think, but what the pests need is competition from other businesses to push up the price for Jaguar and without us the tv time will be down a lot as don't they play a lot less games so could be less attractive.

The telegraph suggested that companies are awaiting the outcome of whether we stay at the Stadium or not before they make decisions. Football brings a higher level of national coverage than Rugby so it makes sense. Plus that's hardly a denial by the club is it?

Or just have off field problems. I bet RICOH never thought they'd be mentioned so much in the world of football as they have been being associated with us

If that is factual, then it should be taken into consideration when it comes to the terms on which we are there.

My information is that it is exactly the opposite.

And they were going to be the origanally sponsors of the Arena, before they went tits up during Ford's ownership?
So they only sponsored the halls as it was the cheaper option.
The Jaguar arena does have a ring to it

Good all round if we go then. Wasps get the deal they want, CCFC get the ground they want.

Its funny that, my source says the opposite to yours.

Wasps without CCFC means less coverage, even a chimp could work that out.

I think its a matter of CCFC settling down and just getting on with the football.

Your information is your own ignorant opinion?

Couldn't that be said about everyone on here.
