Been okay so far, managed to get through it without one mention of "three weeks".
That could change though.
yet another rugby thread ?
Or you could say, when Wasps have no home ground and after many years have been unable to get one the opportunity comes up at the cut price Ricoh (Thanks to Sisu)
The decision is easily made because the support in Wycombe is minimal and the void of a top class rugby team in Warwickshire/West Midlands is apparent.
The added bonus is that they now get all the revenues they create at the newly purchased stadium.
Next, they need to feed on the positivity of CCFC management and it's fans and make it a win win situation for both teams by giving CCFC access to incomes and on a cheap long term rent.
Lets hope they don't read this board, revisit Sisu history at the Ricoh, talk to CCC about any outstanding court cases or become aware of a competitive stadium planned in 'the area'.

But you said your calculations only work for the rental deals if we are in the PL? Can the club finance a PL mission with money just from the ticket sales?
They do read this board, you just need to be in the know as to when!
No I said we could exist in the PL in answer to a question.
I don't know what the deal is with Wasps on incomes other than ticket sales so you will need to enlighten me if they said we can't have any access at all.
Are you saying that now we are cash positive (TF) that vastly bigger crowds would not finance us into the Championship?
Please show me your figures.
Similarly if you believe the only option is for the club to finance a new stadium I also would like to see your rough figures.
Mine don't add up to less than the old 'excessive' rent.
Am I number one in their reading list ?
how do we think they will do tomorrow v castres
looks like Mullan and Haskell will be returning and go straight back into the team
Nah, they inherited you from the council's gullible list of people to do their propaganda
Just like the council inherited me off the Sisu list then ?
Ah the old working out thing.
Do you think we will make enough money at the Ricoh with a deal like this and 10,000 max crowds?
Have Wasps turned round and said that CCFC can have all the money the Ricoh makes from CCFC then?
Maybe you could ask the PR Machine when you go to the open day?
The whole premise of this particular thread is of course absurd .
We are supposed to believe that having an open day for wasps is some kind of marketing excellence and deride sisu for not thinking of it .
I can only assume the OP is citing sisu last season and for not having such events at Northampton. As that is the valid comparison. It is being done as it is aimed at targeting f people from a different city to join their fanbase. Sensible posters express concern that such targeting may have a detrimental impact on the fanbase of local clubs.
Not so the OP who seems to be enjoying himself today. Then of course we observe who the OP is and it all makes sense.
It is the fan of all new hedge funds that enter the city. First it was sisu. Without doubt he was the biggest supporter on here. Right up until the move to Northampton he stuck by them. The adulation to fisher made one thing there was some curious chemistry between them. He invented a nice little slogan for sisu and a lovely little banner which he used as his signature on here.
Now a new hedge fund is in town. He is all dewy eyed again and poor old Tim has been rejected and now its Nick who is the centre of attention. Perhaps a new banner is on the way and a new slogan for the latest hedge fund to catch his eye.
Someone asked what is Italiahorse?
Well without wishing to dwell too much on racial stereotyping one nation at war timed was always mocked for changing sides and getting out when the going got tough - that's Italia. As for horse well again it seems our friend is always changing horses but sadly just seems to back losers.
They would be stupid not to make it a win win situation.
There are undoubtedly savings for both teams with CCFC being here and they need to pass a good percentage of these savings on.
I'll reserve judgement, assume they will do the right thing and come down like a ton of bricks on them if they don't.
That wasn't what was said on here, if you rent a place it is your home according to those on here. Therefore Adams Park was there home and as you have quite rightly pointed out Coventry certainly isn't their home.
It is now so get used to it.
We just need to get a deal that makes it our home as well.

Not realistic and not going to happen.
True it's SISU's fault that the fan base has crumbled over the last 7 years, I just don't get the support and encouragement for the team who is trying to pick up these fans and I don't think I will ever understand it.SISU and open dont go in the same sentance.
For the people concerned about Wasps decimating our fan base I would be more concerned about the actions of SISU. No one has done it better than them.
No thanks. You get used to it if it makes you so happy you crank.
It will never happen unless people stop being so negative, move on and push for an acceptable solution for CCFC.
"If your not part of the solution your part of the problem"
.... and your solution is ?
If Sisu had done an open day at sixfields, would you have been fawning over that too?
Well that's the problem isn't it, we're in a situation now where neither option looks particularly enticing.
On the bright side CCFC will never own the Ricoh which is a win for some people.
