I would read Astute's post carefully. Not once has he mentioned the feelings of their supporters.
Other have said its only 60 miles away, others have suggested cov rugby club would benefit from it
Sorry this is the thin end of the wedge. I cannot see how anyone on here could
1, possibly believe a current wasp fan wants it
2. See any benefit to the local struggling team
3. Countenance the concept for - second
Its ludricous.
Are we really bothered?
Most of us have never been to watch Cov Rugby team play.
As long as CCFC are at the Ricoh and both team and venue are secure who cares.
Ultimately Wasps fans will sort this out.
Ah, so you're all for us sodding off to Dublin then.
After all, who cares if we're not happy, if the people of Dublin aren't bothered.
Well that's the way I talk.
I don't see any problem with the 'or' myself.
Such as 'we need to change your grandad's hospital appointment. I won't do it without his full approval or letting the hospital know first.'

I really am. Its outrageous. We sent petitions here there and everywhere asking for sympathy yet couldn't give a damn when it may now be beneficial to our club. Its an outrage and beyond belief.
Why don't you take your own advice and read my post carefully.
I said I don't want them to own the Ricoh. But could handle it if we have to share it. Have to are the words.
So what do you know 100%? Same as the rest of us. Nothing.
A bit of a rant at Grendel
Their fans don't want the move so that's it surely?
No, not yet.
Can't totally dismiss it until we know what the offer and deal is surely?
Let's wait for the detail. See what that is and then see what the reaction is. If any of the 3 parties it immediately affects are against it, then yes, it shouldn't happen.
You might be better off celebrating the fact you're both on the same side with this...
I'm not sure we both have the same motives
Why on earth can't you dismiss a random sporting club turning up in the city?
If there's appetite for a top level Rugby club, people can watch/buy into the one we already have!
You want to dismiss something totally out of hand before you even know what the offer is?
I find that quite bizarre, NW. Very odd.
Sometimes, you have to make a pact with the devil to get the results you wish
(see CCFC back in Coventry for an example. If that's able to happen, you and Grendel agreeing it's bad for Wasps to pop up can't be so hard)
How is it odd to dismiss the concept of places buying their sporting success by removing another team from its location, rather than expecting the sides already there to earn their place through sporting merit?
Otherwise you end up with Wimbledon going to MK... and you end up with us not popping over to Northamptobn for a bit, you end up with us popping over permanently to whoever offers us the best deal on a football ground.
What's bizarre is to oppose a Coventry club moving out of Coventry, but to welcome a non Coventry club moving into Coventry and stamping all over tradition!
But that is just guesswork. None of us have any idea what this potential deal is.

If a non Coventry club plays home games in Coventry, the club is in the wrong place.
Can you not at least wait and see if that is what the deal is?
Well there won't be a deal if it isn't, unless you're expecting Wasps to use the Ricoh as a massive parcel storage and delivery hub.
Can you not at least wait and see if that is what the deal is?
Could be too late by then. What if the deal involves us leaving at the end of the current 2 year deal? I'm pretty sure that at the end of the current 2 years SISU arena will still be narrowed down to 2 sites and they're currently preparing impact statements for the local councils only for the local councils to be going "SISU who?"

Still, sure the people of Truro will welcome our arrival.
Please yourself, but I will simply not condemn anything just based on heresay and conjecture.
I will patiently wait for the announcement of the deal and then wait for what all sides say on the matter.
I'll be glad when this Umbridge Week comes to an end.
Or unless of course it's going to be Umbridge Fortnight

I think the issue will be even if its Europe only games or whatever they do then what happens if that is a success?
Few more games? Few more still? Permenant residence eventually?
That's the worry I think.
I've met Northampton fans at protests...
But we won't want to go to Truro so it wouldn't happen.
Really? I went to all the protests albeit only one in London,missed one game on the hill didn't meet one,but you met more than one :claping hands:
