I would also worry about where we are playing if the court case isn’t settled. The guy from Wasps was pretty definite that no deal would happen if the legal action continued. It is hard to see where we would play if the Ricoh is closed to us. Nuneaton is perhaps the likeliest place but a lot of work would need to be done I would think for it to meet League standards.
Good if there is a loop hole then.I'm not sure that's right mate, (see my post 53 in this thread), though I'm not saying it's incorrect either.
Wasps go out of business and we buy the Ricoh
That Premiership Rugby deal is virtually dropping out of its arse according to news yesterdayWasps are potentially on the verge of a £20-£30 million windfall.

Not sure who I dislike the most
Sisu for screwing up the opportunity they had to buy half the stadium right at the start or The Council for selling the stadium to an out of town sporting franchise thus undermining the existing Coventry rugby club & football club or Wasps for simply existing!
There was never an opportunity to that extent. The council intention until 2014 was that they'd retain their stake in ACL.Not sure who I dislike the most

Without Sisu and the way they went about things, there would be no Wasps at the Ricoh. They were and continue to be at the heart of our problems.Not sure who I dislike the most

Yeah yeah yeah blah blah blah - they are a sporting club that have no historical link to the city where they ply their trade.Who are Wasps ? they are a business running that business as they think is best for them

Making an annual loss and £30m+ in the red, fair play to themWho are Wasps ? they are a business running that business as they think is best for them
This training ground issue has gone on for a long time with the Leamington rugby club (best part of a year) so it’s not new news at all. Wasps can’t afford that either by the looks of it hence the delay?Best solution is to wait until London Wasps go bust and then but the stadium of the administrators
Not by it from them mate, pick it from their rotting corpses as they slide into liquidationThis training ground issue has gone on for a long time with the Leamington rugby club (best part of a year) so it’s not new news at all. Wasps can’t afford that either by the looks of it hence the delay?
I’ve also heard from a very good source that the Ricoh could/is open to offers. I think wasps are putting in contingency plans for the worst.
No, he has a point and they are all equally as bad as each other. Racism, sexism, fascism, Waspism.Most idiotic comment of the year award goes to
Wasps do not “own” the Ricoh, merely rent on a very long lease. If Wasps reneged on their tenancy agreement then it would revert back to CCC. We would then need to negotiate with them.Best solution is to wait until London Wasps go bust and then but the stadium of the administrators

Your first mistake was expecting the frothers to make sense. Wasps are SBTs own Poes Law: as the thread length increases so does the chance of them being mentioned and as soon as they are mentioned the thread is a write off.
If that's the case then SISU's continued use of pursuing legal challenges makes perfect sense. Distress the owners of the lease to the point they fold & be the only option for the Ricoh to have any resident sporting club.It also reverts back to its original lease and would bleed money. It’s unlikekybti happen but if it did ACL would be a very cheap purchase indeed.

Surely it’s Poe’s law?
I was told by a leicester tigers player that within the sport many feel that wasps are in money trouble and will be out of coventry soon
not really we were pissed but he said that many dont think they will remain in coventry long.Just because someone you meet on Grinder tells you they're a professional rugby player doesn't mean they are.
In all seriousness, hope you're right, did he elaborate?
