I'm not going on Saturday now!
Could have guessed it would be you who turns it on the fans.
Headline sounds like it's worth reading but again, it's a nothing story.
I'm not going on Saturday now!
Haha! My evil plan of publishing the story two days before a game worked then

I don't know about you lot but every time I see a Fisher statement, I get depression.
Thoughts? I hope such a site exists and one day the stadium will exist. We can leave the Ricoh to Wasps then.
I'm uncomfortable with that though, Torch.
Would much rather we had the Ricoh and Wasps buggered off back to London. We move and Wasps stay and you then have the scenario of a Coventry City team from Coventry playing outside the city and a London team, obviously not from the city, actually playing in our city.
The main local team gone from city, franchise team from bleedin miles away as the number one sporting team in the city.
Just doesn't sit right at all with me.
It is another Telegraph non-story, as usual. The mythical new stadium was never going to happen and it still will never happen. So nothing has changed.

I'd take that, if feasible (no fan of Ricoh, but even less a fan of franchise).
At the risk of mirroring language when this started though, we do need a plan A or B in case however. In that respect, I'd be more comfortable if we (SISU, club... us as fans) were lobbying CCC about their own local plan, rather than RBC.
How about lobbying Sisu on the financing of a new stadium and the incomes generated ? It needs comparing to renting the Ricoh to see exactly how it will work. The comparison needs doing for the PL as well as now because I have serious doubts that a smaller stadium in the PL is viable long term. Also what assessment of the possible fan base take up has been done to feed into this calculation. We know how bad the assessment was for Sixfields.
Renting on the terms we have mean promotion to the premier league is but a pipe dream - look at the huge losses incurred by clubs who haven't even been successful in getting success in that league.
Never said it was possible.
I said we need to understand what is proposed too see which of the 2 options has the best chance.
We might be better off under Wasps than going for a new stadium. We can hazard a guess at that option, as you have, but I have no idea whatsoever on a new stadium.

How can we be better off in a stadium owned by a London Club who is quickly adding its identity to the stadium?
We know they have a chronic balance sheet and we would be subjecting to horrendous rental costs if we signed up for the long term in a stadium that will be entirely re branded at our expense - literally.
