    Wasps current finances & hope

    I emailed the Council and they replied saying it was ACL that make the decision, and I emailed ACL stating the 10k requirement, and they said it's too hard to predict. Which is obviously very profitable for them (they didn't say that bit).

    Wasps current finances & hope

    I did ask, but as the question is going to a private company rather the Council there isn't really any accountability, it's a stich up. They say due to the walk up they can't estimate that the crowd would be less than 10,000. Like I say, I reckon I could do a much better job of estimating...

    Wasps current finances & hope

    Do you think it's fair that Wasps get to tell the Council which events at the Ricoh need street parking restrictions, which has happened for all of our league home games, when the Green Plan states that only games with an attendance over 10,000 should have parking restrictions? Surely it's a...
