They don't completely deny it in that statement which only adds fuel to the fire.

your right I want us to stay where we are in this shit league.
My argument is where are we going to make any money from a 12,000 seater ground with no room for facilities to accommodate opening it at non match days, except for small conference rooms that you can already get at any of the City established hotels.
So lets build this ground and then pay back more in loans to the ones that have financed it then we pay in rent currently, then there is the upkeep and everything else that goes with owning it, we will actually be worse off surely.
BTW our rental deal is £100,000/ season at the moment most clubs pay more then that just for the upkeep of their stadiums. So how are we in the bottom 3-4?

With this season being so good I'm wondering where everyone is. That's not slagging them off. I'm saying if we can't even get over 12K now then a move to a 15K stadium would be more than adequate to start with. Seriously, it's not that difficult to understand. Still, I know since the Hill days you like to play the victim, that's fine.
And, yet again, you show your lack of understanding. I never said I was happy. I said (for the millionth time) to start with.
Yes but Grendull and his cronies will have the chance to stick two fingers up to wasps, ccc, Higgs, ct, fickle ccfc fans etc. etc. so it's clearly a price worth paying.
The Wasp wankers on here are shitting themselves at the possibility there new favourite club might miss out on revenue.
Suddenly Italia and Tony have emerged from there Wasps trenches with guns firing.

Sisu only give out enough information to keep the fire glowing.
Surprised how many people run with it but don't seem bothered about any details.
No one is running with anything you massive weapon. Everyone is saying its not going to happen, some are saying it would be good with regards to location etc.

Except as I said the other day there is an on cost with CCFC in regards revenue vs cost and delays in sponsorship with the negative publicity around the court case. If this drags on we will get a take it or leave it offer Wasps.
Not wanting to get in the way of a good ol' SBT digital punch-up but...
- Some local media et al pushing the idea of a 10-year Ricoh deal for CCFC
- CRFC on the verge of signing up the freehold
- Rumours start about the Butts Arena for CCFC (Side note: From who and why?)
- A certain media outlet (known for its relationship with the local council) post an article rubbishing other media outlets' stories
- Another media outlet publish a story giving more details (essentially rebutting 4.)
- And here we are now...
Ultimately, it's a choice between a rental deal at the Ricoh or a stadium for CCFC. If they can continue with planning for a city centre site then the stadium will have to go ahead. If the council refuse then they will have done over the club for a second time. What do fans & residents want?
I'm sure there will be people who would prefer the club to rent, but then you have to ask yourself why and what is their track record in how they support the club's development?
But I was right............................
You can use that one as well.:facepalm:
You're joking aren't you. CCFC moving to a 12-15k ground would leave Wasps the only club in Coventry with any ambition and the opportunity to grow their fan base. This could actually play into Wasps long term plans nicely.
I'm not promoting that and funnily enough neither is Italia.
Some people are so happy to leave the Ricoh they're yet to engage their brains and actually work out how this is potentially bad news for CCFC and good news for Wasps.
Most people have said they need to see the business case to rule in or rule out.
No one has said "yes, we should leave the Ricoh immediately and build this stadium". We're discussing whether a c20k (because that the suggested final capacity) stadium near the city centre would be a good thing theoretically or not.

You just need to look at clubs with similar size grounds and see where they are. It's league one/two maybe a season in the championship every other decade at best. If we're lucky we can look forward to an away draw at Leicester in a cup and listen to them singing this is your Wembley.
My other fear is that this could be yet another example of SISU overplaying their hand in negotiations. If I was Wasps I'd be thinking if they go they've cut their potential customer base from 32k to 12-15k overnight and they are no longer our biggest competitor in the area, do we really want to be offering them a deal that will make them stay?

Genuine question, have they released a statement on every potential site then that has been mentioned in the past?The club has long standing policy of refusing to rule out any location outright. It's in order to prevent identification by elimination.
A few of us have asked for the business case, not most.
Sisu need to be aware of what we want or we may not go to a new stadium. This is an input into their business plan.
Maybe I'm a little paranoid but I hope they don't read this thread and think a 12,000 stadium is okay.
Never ever said I'd leave the forum. Too much knowledge to pass on. When are you going to start?
Where do you get your info from ? Someone more reliable than the loser you are using.
