it is my understanding, replacing the existing pitch prior to pool being built is the binding condition. they have to have a replacement prior to loosing it.
By the end of the bit I read they're on about how attractive they must be to a sugar daddy if there is financial troubleThem lot doing their best to pretend everything is okay DrunkenWasps.com - Training centre
As much as I love to see them lot suffer, this really puts the spotlight back on our owners. Surely we can look at a long term deal for the academy and put that matter to bed but isn't this a great opportunity to barter a long term deal with Wasps at the Ricoh where we can get a share of the pie, even a joint ownership model maybe?
Its a shame, if we had a 50/50 deal at the start I think both clubs would be in a different place and probably the attitudes of the public would be different to both clubs.
it is part of the proposal to build the 50m pool. not sure of exact source, sorryIs that something from Sport England?
I agree now but I think if the deal was setup from the start I think perceptions would have been different. I don't want any club going to the wall but if there was one it would be these lot!Possibly for some Stu mate, so it's a fair point, but it's not true for everyone. I'd want no part of supporting the Wasps franchise, even if it was of benefit to CCFC.
I don't want to see Wasps genuine fans suffer, as they've had enough of that already - however I want their club out of the city because they don't belong here. As for the new, Coventry-based, Wasps fans, I'm sure they'll find something else to do on an afternoon if Wasps did go tits-up (as many of them will do if the team continues to struggle). The rugby team with Coventry in their name are doing quite well these days and could use the support, for example.
I also don't think Wasps will go splat any time soon, fwiw, but they're certainly wobbling a bit and whatever their CEO says I think this may be about finance as much as anything else. The one thing that Wasps really can't afford to do is to paint a negative picture to their investors. It's not just SISU who do spin...
You'd probably find 'Wasps' would continue to exist in London if the Cov cuckolds weren't about any more, so not even sure the 'club' going to the wall would happen.I agree now but I think if the deal was setup from the start I think perceptions would have been different. I don't want any club going to the wall but if there was one it would be these lot!
£35mI say this every time it comes up but I'll go again.
Why would you invest in part ownership of a business with a £24m(?) loan hanging over it that it has no hope of paying back?
Well if they went pop, it'd be like RIchmond, where the club would retreat to a lower level and go back to its roots, I'd expect.Not sure how they could pack up and go back to London really? Maybe try somewhere else like Milton Keynes?
I think they will be here for years btw...
£35m

New owners...Even a poster on there piss pot wasps forum has suggested that with the delay in accounts being reported, uncertainty over the bonds and a extension to the payments, training ground shelved and no news on a major sponsorship that there could be something happening.
Which article is that?CT have now put a new article on with what people want and oddly quotes people saying wasps are great and should stay.
I’ve responded and now the tossers are really showing their true colours.
“Wasps in sisu out” - well done Jeff

It said in midlands today that Wasps claim the site isn’t big enough.

Have to say, that answer would give more credence to them struggling to pay for it (or falling out with CSF) than anything up till now.Do you believe them?

Wasps have financial problems. The move to the Ricoh isent working out.
Give it two years they will cease to exist.
