Substance as in false statements?
Without going into it, you did criticise people and the locals who went. You always "liked / agreed" some pretty hardcore posts against people who went too.
Still, not as bad as the user who went mental about free tickets at Sixfields for locals and is then asking about freebies for Wasps.
Get a life. Your checking my likes ?
Couldn't give a sh1t about free tickets at Sixfields and did you really think I needed free tickets for my family in their new wasps gear? LMFAO
What you should really do is just enjoy the football and hope we get on the radar. Just after you have finished a protest about people eating meat and tucking into your steak.
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.
Amazing how you fell out of love with sisu because they moved us 35 miles. Yet fell in love with wasps after they had moved 90 miles. I don't care if you do or don't give a toss. Your blinding hypocrisy should be pointed out at all times. Most don't like sisu. But they don't then go and support a similar kind of outfit just under a different guise. I hope wasps fail. And I hope its just after you bought your season ticket and all your new attire. Then I hope you don't get a refund. Your of a similar ilk to that of moonstone and sisu. Don't kid yourself. You have no principles or morals just like they don't.
He certainly doesn't have any morals or principles; the only thing he cares about is himself and his money.
Why not support CRFC then? If you believe clubs belong in their community which you did when CCFC moved, why not support the local rugby team? A rugby team with a history, a tradition and a sense of belonging. A team that used to be one of the best in the country. Why not give them your money? Why not buy their attire? Why not try and help that club reach former glories? A bit like we all want CCFC to reach the premiership. Slag? Possibly the wrong word. Criticise? Most certainly. As you have pointed out it was wrong for CCFC to be moved and rightly the fan base were fuming. Why then condone it happening to another club? I hoped CCFC would get the stadium. With it being council owned they would have had more chance of inserting caveats into a deal to ensure the club and stadium remained as one. Now with it being privately owned if SISU ever did get their hands on it there would be no such chance. I have a rough idea that they want to make money and get their investment back. No different to Wasps. You have no problem with them doing that yet don't like SISU doing it. Care to explain? Other than that they moved us to Northampton for a year. Compared to Wasps permanent relocation. Have Wasps not renegotiated contracts or cancelled contracts? We don't know. Hidden behind confidentiality. Least SISU were honest and upfront about what they wanted. Well maybe they weren't on second thoughts. They asked for confidentiality and it was leaked.
Lastly you repeat about asking SISU for a plan and direction. Care to explain what you have done so far to achieve this? Wrote to Joy? Tim? Chris Anderson?
Again cue sidekick

Asked him about CRFC before.
It is because a) he has no affinity because he is in Bedworth. b) they aren't on his doorstep (ie his car park)
Starting to make sense now. Not so much a man of loyalty or passion. More of convenience? With that in mind, if that is the case. Then I apologise for expecting you to understand my perspective even if you didn't agree with me
As you get older though it's not life and death anymore.
Is it more about car park revenue as you get older?
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.
They don't really need to go bust just be unable to make payments on the Ricoh and lose it. They can then go back closer to London and their fans and we can buy ACL etc.
A massive 13,040 at the Ricoh today for the 'Big Midlands Derby'.
It's a shame they scraped buy in the game as defeat would have meant bottom 3.
Attendances now are pointless. So many freebies to boost the crowd for this one.
Does anyone have any idea what percentage of the crowd watched them at Adams Park?
How would we find out?
Probably less than 5,000 full paying customers I would guessi had to admit i went to today as someone bought tickets for the whole of the family.
I was hoping worcester would hold out for thw win.
There were loads of under 10's there and a lot of worcestef fans; the tickets we were given cost a qiuid i think on the back of the saracens game....it would be interesting to know how many actually paid full price and what the gate would have been had there not been all the freebies.
I didnt think too much to the atmosphere, it was a bit like ice hockey ...heavily chorographed but no variety.
I personally wont be rushing back, i dint want to go in the first place.
How would we find out? I pretty sure Grendel never kept a record there.
The same way they could say the % coming from a cv post code.How would we find out? I pretty sure Grendel never kept a record there.
Still convinced it's SISU'S strategy to watch Wasps fail and then swoop in to purchase the Ricoh. Don't ask why but it's just a hunch.
