There’s not much they can do though - unless the indemnity is dropped nothing is going to happen.
There’s not much they can do though - unless the indemnity is dropped nothing is going to happen.I don’t think anyone wants them to just accept Wasps extortionate terms. It’s been a few months now and I don’t think anything progressive has been said by the club about returning to the Ricoh or that make believe new ground. But I believe if some substantial evidence came from the club (or owners) that genuine effort was being made, then you’d see a significant rise in support.
Yes the council did. But it doesn't help when the owner of the club moved us out holding us hostage in Northampton does it? They broke the lease and consistently said they weren't returning. They consistently said they were building a new stadium. My god they even had a bullshit fans forum with fake pictures to try and hoodwink us all. What exactly did you expect the council to do with an empty stadium? None of us thought they'd move the club in the first place did we?It wasn’t really in SISUs remit to gift them the Ricoh - that would be the council who sold it on the cheap with an extended 250 year lease
For a start they did actually state that they were bringing us back with a view to ownership.Yes the council did.

They didn't. Seppalla was spouting off eventually saying they'd return but only as owners. They didn't have a plan as such to return as 'owners'. The council would have to agree to sell surely? The damage was done then and there was to much bad blood. The council sold to wasps out of pure spite. The rest is history I guess.For a start they did actually state that they were bringing us back with a view to ownership.
when in actual fact they were using the club as a pawn to increase the Ricoh value to wasps
No that was a quote from Ann Lucas.They didn't. Seppalla was spouting off eventually saying they'd return but only as owners. They didn't have a plan as such to return as 'owners'.

No. Seppalla or fisher said they'd only return as owners of the freehold.No that was a quote from Ann Lucas.
And when they did return... Ann Lucas said that they would like to build the trust with a view to an ownership stakeNo. Seppalla or fisher said they'd only return as owners of the freehold.
She lied.And when they did return... Ann Lucas said that they would like to build the trust with a view to an ownership stake
So with that in mind - do you see why the stance is as it is?She lied.
She lied.

Yeah I know but I guess as a more of a ground share thing. I doubt very much they'd of just parachuted wasps in without discussing it with city/sisu. Sisu would of tied them up in litigation galore if they'd of pulled that stunt.the fact is wasps were being eyed up as a potential club for the Ricoh before any rent strike occurred
Standard.I don’t think logic comes into it

You mean after we quickly scuttled back to the ricoh and still had Fisher going on that plan A was still a new stadium? The damage was done. The council hate sisu. The breaking the lease was the catalyst for this. You need to look closer to home instead of blaming everyone else. Why are you so desperate to relieve sisu of any blame? What exactly is your agenda nick?You mean like when they sold it to Wasps when we were tennants?

You sound like your talking about yourself tbh.It isn't relieving anybody of blame, it is pointing out facts in reply to your distorted statements.
Agenda? I'm not the one signing up and going into overdrive to try and push particular things regardless of how factually correct they are.
So you think that the Council would have asked SISU / CCFC about bringing Wasps here but when they did actually sell to them, the council were saying they were going to build trust with ownership in mind with regards to CCFC who were tenants at the time.
You sound like your talking about yourself tbh.
Do you honestly think that if there was no rent strike and we'd of stayed at the ricoh as normal that the council would of said on the eve of the first game of the season 'oh by the way weve a new Tennant for you to share with '. Do you actually believe the council would of done that? Could you imagine the court cases against them.So are you going to reply to the points or not?
You seem to be very good at firing things out but not very good at backing anything up.

Ok maybe not a court case but there would of been total uproar if they'd been forced on us surely.Why would there have been a court case against them? On what basis?
If you remember the emails from Daniel Gidney, CCFC wasn't even a thought when they were trying to get Wasps there originally.
I don't know. Maybe there was something in the lease that said we had to remain the sole tennant? We'll never know will we.how would there be a court case? As long as the clubs fixtures were not compromised I can’t see what aspect of the lease would be broken
I don't know. Maybe there was something in the lease that said we had to remain the sole tennant? We'll never know will we.
You know exactly what I mean so don't try and be smart as it really doesn't suit you.So you are just making up a scenario to suit even though the actual thing that happened doesn't match up?
