He's an amateur. Also he has me on ignore which makes him somewhat cowardly
Ha ha! Sounds like you've met your match. You two should get married.
Have you ever ate a Hob Knob that tasted a bit too salty?

No. But then I've never been to your house for tea. Perhaps Sickboy knows?
The game goes on a lot on here. The mutual "regard" of Wasps supporters all together on here with their mutual love in. Hope your not a slow burner Tony.
Obviously all sides are to blame but what was your intented point of the post? If the franchise's fans were travelling up from London then fair enough.
It's strange that now criticising the franchise is becoming akin to backing sisu with ccfc fans turning on each other and defending a franchise supporter who is clearly here not as a ccfc fan.
I doubt he thought about his post but any independent observer reading it would assume it's a glowing reference for all things wasps.

What is intended by all of your posts having a go at everyone but SISU in this thread?
Just like I pointed out that a couple were saying that Wasps paid less than the Ricoh was valued at but ignoring the reason why. Are you going to question them why?
Didn't think so.
No. But then I've never been to your house for tea. Perhaps Sickboy knows?
For inclusion in the city plan do you have to actually give details of a potential site or just say we need 60 acres? The way the Coventry city plan is talked about is that any site that becomes available is to be used for housing but I'm not sure all those sites have been individually specified.
There is a potential problem down the line. If SISU don't get something in a city plan, either in Coventry or nearby, then any new owner will have a struggle to provision a new ground. As even the experts seem to think this is essential that could be a worry. How often are city plans drawn up?
For me the best option is probably by Ansty Business Park. There's a big piece of land (more than 60 acres) sitting to the south of the road to the business park (to the east of the A46). That's as near to Coventry as makes no practical distance. It also already has a junction on the motorway and a walkway under the motorway. There's food and drink places on the other side. Only drawback is that its a farm or something at the moment so could be tricky on the planning front. Although there's little in the way of housing nearby so no NIMBY problems and building the business park might have set a precident.
Anyway, up the Wasps!
After the first 750 posts I thought that this topic had reached a low point, I was wrong.
I've always said that sisu are dreadful owners yet if you criticise the council or the franchise you are deemed a sisu lover
It shows you something when even Tony and Italia have run away from him,
He strikes me as a bit of a nut job. The type who posts on the CET comments page or bombards the SCG with e-mails asking stupid questions.
So, it is a stupid question to ask how the stadium is coming on? Actually I agree with you on that, but I think it is good to call their bluff ( the stadium talkers ) and show them for what they are. The more questions the better.... The longer this crap about the stadium goes on the weaker CCFC's position gets. The 2 plus 2 deal is running down and the chances of getting a new stadium ready in time for when it expires are getting slimmer. If we've got nowhere lined up, let's start talking with Wasps about an extension. If we leave it to the last minute it is "hands up".
What was the purpose of your post then? Do you believe that their attendances are higher than what ours were at 6 fields because their loyal fans travel up from London?
To me it came across that you were backing up armybike's post that the franchise were somehow bigger than ccfc.
How do you know they aren't in discussion about extending the deal? How do you know it's proving tough as Wasps don't want to play ball?
Look at the posts being made before I made my first one and if you are unbiased you will understand.

How do you know that they are? How do you know that it is all the fault of Wasps?
Nobody does. But an educated guess will tell you that SISU are stalling until they get somewhere with the constant litigation or run out of litigation possibilities.
I don't. I am hoping they are in discussions or, if not, that they start sooner rather than later. I would. If Wasps are don't want to play ball then we are in trouble - which you don't know if they do or don't.
"How do you know it is the fault of Wasps"
Have a word with yourself.
It's sad really, isn't it?
I am nothe unbiased as I am a ccfc fan. Do you think their high crowds were due to their loyal fans travelling up from London thus meaning they are a bigger club.
Do you believe that the franchise are a bigger club than us in the world of sport?
"How do you know it is the fault of Wasps"
Have a word with yourself.
It's clever from Wasps. They have fooled the masses. The truth is as s ruthless organisation sisu couldn't hack it - they proved patsies.
Richardson cares about one thing - richardson. He moved the club and really couldn't give a shit of any of those fans remained to support them as all he is interested in is money
If he finds he would get more money by selling up and moving again he'd do it again.
This is an organisation where customer loyalty means absolutely nothing and community really nothing. If they find any possibility they'd make one penny more with us not being there we won't be there.
If they were sisu we would have been liquidated 6 years ago.
So are you saying that you know that Wasps are trying to charge a massive rent?
No you don't. But you know that it is the fault of Wasps that we can't make an agreement although we don't even know that SISU have tried to have talks.
They are bigger than us at rugger. We are bigger than them at football.
I want Wasps to fail and the Ricoh become available again. And it would be cheap as maybe as SISU'S plans were it would be a white elephant. But don't hold your breath.
