Interesting read from the Leicester tigers fans forum on London wasps. Notice the posts on London wasps financial position in the press!
TheLeicesterTigers.co.uk - Distraction for Wasps??
TheLeicesterTigers.co.uk discussion board : Unofficial Leicester Tigers news and viewsm.rugbynetwork.net
Can live with that in the short term. All we do then is finish them off by not going into them and giving the hotels the worst ratings ever on trip advisor!Outlandish prediction. Wasps will fold/merge disappear from Coventry.
Richardson will go onto build a variety of hotels and leisure industry settings in the various car parks around the arena.
Bore off back to the drunken wasps sitelots of amateur one eyed speculation much like on here.It’s not in the news because it’s not really news …. It’s all in the public domain …. What news do you expect it to be in ? …. Headline on news at ten ?

Welcome to SBT… the reason we expect it to be in the Coventry Telegraph is because if it was our accounts there would be a 5 page spread about how we’d be going into oblivion.lots of amateur one eyed speculation much like on here.It’s not in the news because it’s not really news ….

that’s a fair comment…… so why do you suggest it’s not in the news ? ….. perhaps nobody would be interested if Wasps are as insignificant locally as many on here feel. The accounts are late that’s already public, anything beyond that is speculation
Well the bond holders also haven’t been paid - despite a commitment they would be and then late accounts along with a wall of silence by wasps

agreed … but again anything beyond that is speculation…. The fact that Bondholders haven’t been paid has been reported publicly in the appropriate press where people are interested ….. is the average Cov Telegraph reader really interested? …. Are you suggesting that the lack of local coverage is some conspiracy theory or could it be that at the moment it’s not really news worthy ?
Again. Would they be about the ins and outs of legal cases? If it was CCFC they would be.agreed … but again anything beyond that is speculation….

And the fact Bobby bridge is blocking anyone who asks about it on twitter
If it was the football club it would be everywhere but we can all do the maths as to why it isn't being reported can't we
Could you explain why Coventry Telegraph Business Award winners - company of the year 2016 is not of significant interest to Coventry Telegraph readers?
Also, could you explain why missing a deadline to pay back bondholders is not news-worthy either?
An award 6 years ago ? Is that really current ?
Tell us why it’s not being reported ? Is Bobby Bridge the only journo that can report such a shocking story ? If it’s that scandalous then surely another media outlet would pick it up, don’t you think ? …… or is it that right now there isn’t really anything particularly interesting to report that isn’t in the public domain. If you are hanging your hat on one journalist then I would politely suggest it’s a non story. Of course in due course it might be a great story and the biggest scandal to hit Cov, there again it might fizzle out to nothing.
Wasps are insignificant but considering they own a community asset that wasn’t sold to SISU because there were fears they’d loan against it. You can see why the community asset would be of significant interestagreed … but again anything beyond that is speculation….

As it's bad wasps news is hushed until Bobby can copy and paste.

I don’t disagree one journo may choose not to report it …. That’s life …. But he can’t hush every other media outlet. As I said if it was that scandalous someone else would pick up on the story ….. but they haven’t …… ask yourself why ??
Time will tell I guess, neither you or I know. This is something that has been said and wished now by you guys for a long time and it hasn’t happened yet. There are also a lot of decent men and women who’s wish it is that Wasps don’t fail but time will tell.I mean it won't be long until the circus ups a leaves anyway with the results and the crowds you are currently getting, it won't be sustainable for much longer anyway even if the bonds are paid
The local news outlets have a wasp section and there are stories on it most days
The delayed accounts and lack of bond payment show a significant financial issue with the club
That in turn would have considerable implications for the football club. It’s fairly silly to say it’s not something newsworthy when other stories including transfer news etc are
Are you alluding that only non decent people wish for Wasps to fail?Time will tell I guess, neither you or I know.

No, the one paper that has a vested interest in the Wasps project is silent, the rest wouldn’t care because outside of England - Rugby isn’t of interest.agree there is a significant financial issue nobody denies that ….. I’m not familiar with other media outlets locally ….. are you suggesting that all the media outlets are collaborating for a news blackout ?

And this is the point which is lost on Wasps fans…. They’ve come in to the detriment of the major sports teams already here.By the looks of things most of them don't live in Coventry though which is the point

I really don’t know the breakdown of people across the stadium, all I can tell you is that where I sit there are more season ticket holders from the midlands than from other parts of the country. Don’t overlook that over the years many long standing Wasps supporters come from all over the country not just London. People move on in life but they still support Wasps. I’m sure that could be said of CCFC also. I have friends who supported Wasps at Wycombe but live nearer Cov, they used to travel down.
