I remember when the Crows Nest was first built. Was a decent pub, there and the Attleborough Arms. Posy pubs with good looking clientele. (Me)
Times have changed.
My point is that my sole focus is having a deal rather than just the legals dropped.
If they get dropped and we get a deal, bonus.
I wouldn't turn my nose up at one without though
Just because my main aim is ccfc, don't let your mates banging on about supporting the legal action trick you.The same as their pretend reasons to boycott they made up.
First and foremost it's about ccfc, that's above legal action.
It’s sadly the other way around if your Wasps and they hold the cards at the momentMy point is that my sole focus is having a deal rather than just the legals dropped.

Clearly know more than the rest of us nick?It was last year as well
Baffling people seem to take everything they say at Face Value.
You are putting a lot of faith in your judgement that Wasps will blink first Nick.It was last year as well

Did you leave the car keys here hun, If not i will sort something else out. Take care XX
Clearly know more than the rest of us nick?
But surely it’s an understandable response from them? Personally think it’s arrogant as a club to think that we can still negotiate with them and take them to court at the same time? Just doesn’t add up to me?No I just know that all of a sudden if Wasps say something it must be true and can't be questioned.
We are taking the council to courtBut surely it’s an understandable response from them? Personally think it’s arrogant as a club to think that we can still negotiate with them and take them to court at the same time? Just doesn’t add up to me?
1) We’re not taking Wasps to court, they are listed as an interested party.But surely it’s an understandable response from them? Personally think it’s arrogant as a club to think that we can still negotiate with them and take them to court at the same time? Just doesn’t add up to me?
And if a deal isn't agreed? You are basing so much on so little, I wish I had your faith.1) We’re not taking Wasps to court, they are listed as an interested party.
2) The situation hasn’t changed from last year when a deal was agreed.
3) Companies involved in legal action continue business with each other all the time. Probably the best example of that is Apple and Samsung, have spent years in court involved in multi-billion dollar lawsuits but still do businsss with each other on a day to day basis.

Because our good times were probably their bad times. I would suspect they have to be careful in Birmingham with their workforce coming from all clubs but its a fact their HQ is in Coventry and my suggestion is to ads in the local papers/online versions asking them to assist in our message Wasps should be listening to the local population if not the owners.Would there be any mileage in targeting people like Jaguar to ensure they apply pressure to Wasps? Cant do any harm of course, but how do we go about getting people like that on board? The fact they've always been here, pulled out of sponsoring the ground, never sponsored the City even in the good times and yet do sponsor Wasps, do they even care about us?
Well they are moving a lot of jobs abroad so obviously care less about the locals then people like to think.Because our good times were probably their bad times.

Yes you are correct and as no one cares I will join you in watching the club fold from afar.Yes, if the two hedge funds won’t listen to us, I’m sure an Indian multinational will be falling over themselves.
Billboards/protests/adverts etc only work as awareness raising campaigns. Everyone knows about the situation. No one cares.
A few hundred randos from Cov aren’t about to change the course of a couple of hedge funds. Why would they? What would that tell their investors?
Sadly jag are surely going to be on the side of the council/wasps if push came to shove and ccfc wouldn’t be a major consideration to ThemWould there be any mileage in targeting people like Jaguar to ensure they apply pressure to Wasps?

the only way Wasp's will blink is if the City Suppoerters protestation effect their suppoerters on their home match days!Once again oldskyblue58 thanks for sharing your expert knowledge very helpful to myself and many others on here . Quite a few on the forum seem to think that because Wasps blinked first last year they will again I think not . I believe they have already spent a fair sum sending their lawyers to keep an eye on proceedings and decided enough is enough . If like last time we clear off thinking we are Wasps only possible tenants they might get a shock. I do hope they see sense
Yes you are correct and as no one cares I will join you in watching the club fold from afar.
Acceptance? Dancing ? Eternal darkness? No I will probably just go and watch Leicester, get a season ticket and watch the games dispassionatelyEnjoy it for what it is now. If it folds it folds, there would have been nothing we can do. Are you also mad that I’m not doing a sun dance every night to bring the sun back? Just sitting watching the world in eternal darkness from afar?
Sorry you haven’t hit acceptance yet, still in denial. I was there, it’s better here believe me.
If we're going down that route than you also have to consider that Wasps said the same prior to agreeing a deal last year. They repeatedly said no deal would be done while legal action was ongoing yet they backed down and did a deal.you missed out the bit that said Wasps made it clear (and in public) at the time of the last deal (early February 2018) that if legal actions continue there will be no new talks on another deal.
The point is its not true just to say there's legal action therefore there's obviously not going to be a deal. Its interesting that Wasps keep using the word 'can't', clearly trying to create a narrative when the more accurate word would be 'won't'. There is absolutely nothing stopping them opening talks and agreeing a deal other than their own decision not to.Just as many companies (probably more) refuse to deal with each other when legal action takes place especially smaller companies.
I think it will take more than just a few supporters(and that's all I think you will get) a) because more people live outside Coventry than live in and would not bother turning up club or no club and even if you got a few hundred locals do you think rugby fans will worry too much I know most football fans only care about football and only show a passing interest in rugby local or otherwise . As for blinking my guess is Sisu think that way and are in for a shock this time/the only way Wasp's will blink is if the City Suppoerters protestation effect their suppoerters on their home match days!
