That wont happen, you would go to Leicester or Northampton but what I would say is people who support big clubs (look at Man Und or Wigan Warriors) will glady travel half way across the country to see there sides at home so I don't see it stopping the current die hard Wasps fans.And aren't they the same issues with the Ricoh? People moan about it being hard to get to (yes station is being built), but it's still not particularly easy to get to other than by driving for most of those outside the city. Italia thinks they will be attracting fans from Shropshire and Staffordshire.

Thats the real frustration. Had all the arsing about not happened we would run ACL by now but ohhh no Joy wants the freehold and for nothing and all contracts in place ripped up and if we could stuff both goals full of £50 notes for her as well!! :jerkit:There's no difference. Oh, apart from one isn't SISU. That's all that really matters to some.
Reading your posts, you're on the wrong forum. The wasps forum is where you should be.Sisu played with fire (using our club) and got fingers burnt. Wasps seen an opening and took it. What's so ruthless about that?

One of the things people like with Rugby is that you can have a beer all the way through the game (how ironic will that be when were sitting up there on a Saturday thinking if I miss the last 10 minutes of the first half I might get a pint in by the start of the second half!) so people don't drive and getting to Leicester by train or bus is total bollocks. I don't know anyone who supports Northampton or Gloucester and that live in Coventry so I can't comment on that.
I imagine that if a top flight club were to relocate to Coventry a lot of our fans would ditch CCFC in seconds.
My next door neighbour supports Northampton and drives there.
They would if they were not here !!

Haven't Wasps owners played with fire dealing with a council they have no previous relationship with, over a potential deal that could've/could still alienate their fans?
So, why are people so excited about Wasps moving to the city when there is already a rugby team here to support?
Most potential customers, including myself, are not from Coventry and have not established a connection with Cov RFC.
CCFC got me hooked as a kid from Bedworth because they had just got promoted to L1 (1967) put buses on direct from HR to Bedworth and were on Match of the Day every week.
Straw clutching comes to mind. So you will be happy to play your part in the death of Coventry's rugby club?

What won't happen. People travelling from Warwickshire and West Midlands to watch a top class Rugby game?
If Wasps get established it would be easy to adopt them as their team, particularly as they have now set down some deep roots.
My reference to Shropshire and Staffordshire is based on an absence of top class Rugby in those areas and the M6 corridor.
In reference to Leicester and Northampton you would need to drive a further 20 & 35 miles to get to them. If you are just after top class rugby why would you do that ?
Anyway, it will be a few years before we can see whether Wasps decision is a good one for them and Rugby fans.

About the same amount as Wasps' own. FFS, it's not difficult to grasp.
Most Cov fans ditched ccfc over the past 7 years. We were averaging 17k now it's 7k. Whose to blame for that sorry stat?
So what sort of games are you watching and I thought you said you never watched rugby.
What am I not grasping? taking bits of my post trying to suit your argument when I all I was pointing out is that if Sisu had the ground we still wouldn't own it just like now Wasps have it. Just that Sisu are wankers for allowing it to get to this. But thanks for your input and nice to know you're still about.
Fingering eachother in the arse, wearing matching shirts and ties, necking 'messy pints' and generally being annoying pricks in the pub.
Why do ccfc 'fans' applaud the council selling the Ricoh to one hedge fund over the other?
I'd have thought there would have been a lot more outrage over this?
That sounds more like the player's than the fan's.

Who's done that then?
I think you'll find that the club is going down the tubes with a whimper,there have been that many things to be outraged obout over the last few years people have had enough I think the majotity don't care anymore.
Explain why 27,000 packed out the Ricoh then?
It was an event there were people on the radio who had never been before just wanted to be there,and remind me of the crowds since.
We got sub 10k at hr in the 1990's. We've always had terrible support whatever people claim.
