It's not tin foil is it? They also kept moving the goal posts.I guess. It depends on how far you want to look for a conspiracy.
Like I said they could have been hoping to keep it quiet and get a deal done before anyone realised and thus manage to get the money and not look too bad in the process. When it was put into the public eye that wasn't an option so they asked for the indemnity clause so they could still get the money but save a bit of face if anyone asked why they'd negotiated a deal when legals were still ongoing when they said they wouldn't.
As you say if you want to go a bit tin foil hat you could say they never wanted to agree a deal but didn't want to be seen as the bad guys so started negotiations on a SISU promise they knew to be false (or misleading), made sure Gilbert made it public (probably had to use a third party due to confidentiality agreements) before the contract was concluded and thus attempted to change the contract in a way they knew the club couldn't agree to and thus get rid of us while making SISU at least part culpable.
I have a lot of respect for Conn but he's only got half the story here and is coming across as a bit of a tit.

Most people will actually need a spirit when the merits of this shit kicks in and things like getting the kids out of school and on the M6 in time for midweek home games.

He's taken a postion, nailed his colours to the mast and now can't change tact without looking stupid. He's just going to keep repeating Wasps' side verbatim. Not worth bothering with.
I thought you were at the protest at the wasps game?
Obviously me getting my facts wrong again.
lol for some of us, meh i wont complain since i never get see us play week in and out.Phew!
Every cloud eh?
It will be interesting to see what Mark robins and the players say about not playing at the Ricoh. I hope it doesn't affect our chances of securing more players for next season
I don't imagine it will have much impact, hardly any of the players actually live in Coventry anyway so going 20 miles down the road i wouldn't imagine would put many off. The players already signed will have known we didn't have a guaranteed home and they still signed. (i'm bloody hoping this is right btw!)It will be interesting to see what Mark robins and the players say about not playing at the Ricoh.

I had to put my opinion on it out there. I'm devastated that for the second time in my young life of supporting City i will have to face another groundshare.
If I see you I'll buy you a pint (which Birmingham City not Wasps will be creaming off)View attachment 12314
I’ll be at St. Andrews next season with my flag! I for one hope Ricoh pull the sponsorship of the ground and they suffer big time with us not being there.
Everybody should bomb the ricoh if they have functions anything that happens their at all and give wasps no revenue ! The will not survive it we will.
And a meer 4 pages of in human grunting on the south Newcastle FC forum.
What about Jimmys statue?What about our bricks in the Ricoh?

Denis Bergkamp isn't coming any more.Does this affect future signings?
You also had an inside source telling you that he was meant to be close to signing for us?Denis Bergkamp isn't coming any more.
This is actually quite a serious matter. Can Wasps remove it, and if so do the Council have to be alerted to possible removal ?What about Jimmys statue?
You mean you won't be hiring the Jimmy Hill conference room off them anymore? They're happy enough to use our history to make them money.Everybody should boycott the ricoh if they have functions anything that happens their at all and give wasps no revenue ! The will not survive it we will.
