    Private Eye

    Last time I said a certain award winning journalist was writing the Eye articles it was deleted, so I'm surprised Nick hasn't deleted this post.

    There is no pending land deal...

    While they were about it, the council could have bought Messi & Ronaldo for us, but they obviously don't care enough about the club.

    Were SISU offered the same deal as Wasps, Yes or No?

    It could be said that Coventry council gave CCFC a better deal, i.e. a 50% share of the stadium management company. Swansea council only gave their football club a 33% share. In both cases, the stadium management company is responsible for setting the rent but, by selling their share, CCFC lost...

    Higgs reason for sale to Wasps false pretences?

    Where has Derek Richardson said that the surrounding area isn't going to be developed? This is the entire conversation (with David Walsh) from the Times article: I mention that some Wasps fans believe he bought their club solely to acquire an undervalued property asset. “I’m not a property...

    here we go...

    Black gowns and wigs - maybe that's what they should be selling in the club shop as they clearly have no interest in selling CCFC shirts.

    More Court Action

    FAO Inklee boy: stop mocking Grendel. He contributes 30 posts every hour, night and day, despite having a job as a senior executive (on £100k p.a.) and a very active social life. Not many other mortals could achieve that. He provides valuable analysis and insight into the problems surrounding...

    Don't see what the problem is?

    All this removing a club from its community bollocks. The club moving to the Ricoh (Wasps RFC) has been in existence for less than 20 years. Wasps FC are still part of their community in W London. Wasps RFC have been in High Wycombe for 10 years and it was always a temporary arrangement...

    Don't see what the problem is?

    Torchy, why don't you have a meeting with the Wasps fans and tell them what you did when your club moved away and what you did to get it back?

    RFU Will Rubber Stamp Wasps Move According To The Times

    Les Reid: Ray Ranson & ex-CCFC people may be in on a club/Ricoh takeover plot

    This is SISU's Mickey Mouse world. They are briefing journalists that do not have a paper to write for and releasing press announcements through a "fan's group" with two members.

    Les Reid: Ray Ranson & ex-CCFC people may be in on a club/Ricoh takeover plot

    Eurofin specialize in raising finance for the sports and leisure industries. They have done this successfully for both football and rugger clubs. Ray Ranson has acted as consultant for them for some time. It takes the genius of the MIDLANDS JOURNALIST Of THE YEAR to turn this into a scare story.

    Fekin Les Reid !!!!

    I'm just waiting for Nikki Sinclaire to give us her (or should that be SISU's) opinion.

    "Let’s be clear, we absolutely want the football club to stay at the Ricoh"

    This really is very simple isn't it? There is a sports stadium in Coventry that is looking for a permanent tenant. If the owners of CCFC want that permanent tenancy then they should say so and agree a deal. If not, there appears to be interest from at least one other party so that tenancy may...

    Get Cov Back to the Ricoh response to Wasps Ricoh Takeover

    Exactly. How much to buy a controlling interest in the Ricoh, £10m? Come on, that's chicken feed in the City and to suggest that Deloitte have produced a prospectus to raise even the whole amount is ridiculous.

    Get Cov Back to the Ricoh response to Wasps Ricoh Takeover

    It is and, judging by the deal that Saracens did with Allianz, would be a very smart move by JLR. Allianz paid Saracens something like £8m for naming rights to a 10k stadium, so a controlling interest in ACL (with naming rights for the stadium) would be fantastic deal so long as Wasps were...

    Get Cov Back to the Ricoh response to Wasps Ricoh Takeover

    According to Stephen Jones (ex-Lion) who used to play for Wasps, the consortium would include Land Rover. The attraction to both parties, Wasps playing high profile matches in the Land Rover Stadium, is obvious.

    Get Cov Back to the Ricoh response to Wasps Ricoh Takeover

    Maybe the OPs research wasn't as thorough as he would like to believe. 'London Wasps' reverted to just 'Wasps' back in July http://www.therugbypaper.co.uk/latest-breaking-news/17241/london-wasps-to-be-known-as-wasps/

    Wasps in talks to takeover Ricoh

    Just to be clear about the Wasps that are (perhaps) proposing to relocate to the Ricoh - this is Wasps RFC and that club has been in existence for less than 20 years. They have never had a settled home where they could build up a loyal and local fan base. They have this year dropped the London...
