Compared to what?
So it isn't significant then?
Compared to what?
The income that is gained through f and b if you have 365 day stadium access.
The only thing I've ever labeled pie money is F & B and in comparison to ticket revenue it is insignificant. Something you clearly struggle to comprehend.
What do you estimate that to be for the 12-15k stadium that sources close to LR have suggested the capacity of our new stadium will be?
Apparently it is essential for the survival of the richest rugby club in Europe. Yet the bellends dismiss it as 'pie money' when it comes to our football club.
Oh dear. You and Italia really are made for each other.
Let's try again. Is 365 f and b revenues essential for a clubs success or not. You see this is a problem isn't it. Wasps say it's the only reason they wanted to own a stadium management company and their average paying attendance is nowhere near 15,000
So rather than bullshit answer - is pie money needed or not? Can we survive on 23 days - yes or no?

Sky blue Tony and Italia - the double act on SBT that are to intelligent thought as the Krankies are to comedy excellence.
You can't answer the questions then ?
I asked the question. It was Wee Little Jimmy who answered with another question.
Carry on. The pair if you are the biggest tools on here. Everyone is laughing at you.
So what's it worth? You can't decide if its substantial unless you know what "it" actually is. Pretty simple really. I actually feel a little embarrassed having to explain that to a big shot like yourself but clearly that's where we are.
Why don't you ask italia. He was the one who said it didn't matter if Wasps ticket revenues drop as they get the other revenues.

Whatever wasps get we won't be getting anywhere near that. No hotel rent, no casino rent, no exhibition hall income, no where near the same car park revenue (if any at all), no arena concert income just of the top of my head. So it's not really an example to make a comparison to is it.
I didn't say it didn't matter. Why make it up ?
I said that ticket sales are not so important as they have other incomes.
Ticket sales only part of it though.
One of the advantages of getting all the match day incomes.
Rugby has the advantage of having the outlets open all the time as well.
What rent do they get from the hotel and casino?

How can anybody defend Wasps, even objectively they shouldn't be here. They are a London team in a country where sports teams are pillars of community and not franchises. SISU are shitbags and CCC and shitbags but whoever's 'side' you're on a London rugby team should be playing in a Coventry football stadium.
Doesn't it illicit an emotional response seeing the statue of Jimmy with Wasps badges behind it, walking past the wall with names of fans that paid money to have their name on their football club's stadium. We have a memorial garden for people who had their ashes scattered at Highfield Road because they wanted to be close to their football team. The Ricoh is our stadium, no matter what the ownership and no matter who fucked up us not owning it.
Until Wasps leave out of there own choice I wish them all the ill in the world. As a general rule I wouldn't wish anybody's team to go under but if they went bust it would be a joyous day in my house.
Nobody is defending Wasps. They saw an opportunity to improve themselves and grabbed it.
It gave CCC an opportunity to get out a stranglehold that Sisu had created.
We rented off ACL and now we rent off Wasps.
We were never going to own it since the previous regime miscalculated.
All the items that made it our stadium then, are still there now.
Just look at is as if Wasps have put a few badges up where we didn't want to.
Enjoy the football and Wasps can use it when we don't need it.

Nobody is defending Wasps?! You help fund them!!!! Provide a car park for them, money before morals clearly! You really are something else! SISU lover to SISU hater. Do you just have a thing for hedge funds? When the next one strolls into town will you ditch Wasps?
You have a season ticket for them do you not? You criticised those who went to sixfields? You stated Northampton locals should not attend? Blinding hypocrisy. I don't expect you to see it. Everyone else does though.
I have a season ticket.
I never criticised people who went to Sixfields be it CCFC fans or locals.
I did say that anyone who went should be aware they are supporting Sisu plan to get the Ricoh which is different.
So how do I defend them?
I've realised they are going nowhere so I have learned to live with them.
I could learn to live with Sisu again if they continue to do things right and get us back where we were when they came.
Oh yea and sack Tim Fisher.
If they fund us into the PL I could learn to love them AGAIN!
Just corrected that last sentence for you Italia
The sidekick is here
Don't know SBT176 but on this forum he shines.
Nice to see someone talking sense instead of slagging off anybody who puts substance into debate.
Is the sisu plan any different or worse than that of wasps? They used the fallout and a club being ripped from their community to rip another club from their community. Yet you support that and buy the we had no choice line. Yet firmly believe sisu had a choice even though the council quoted ridiculous amounts to purchase income rights. They also came out with quotes such as hell will freeze over before we sell to sisu. If sisu were wrong then so are wasps. Therefore to now support them is the definition of hypocrisy. I await your sidekick wading in to defend you and wasps. Zzzzzzzzzzzzz
I've read your post and although it's nothing new I've taken all your points on board, digested them and realise I could not give a toss what you think !!
