They want 2 bases?Wasps have confirmed they will not use the former Sixways Stadium of Worcester Warriors as an interim home when the club is cleared to return to rugby.
The six-time Premiership champions were based in Coventry when they went into administration in October 2022.
Club legend Kenny Logan was hopeful they would initially choose Sixways, prior to relocating to Kent.
But a Wasps spokesperson said they will use a temporary base in the "Greater London and South East England Area".
The spokesperson added: "Wasps have never considered Sixways as a permanent home and were involved only to facilitate an option to play at the stadium on a temporary basis.
"Our intended permanent home is now in Kent, where we are actively pursuing our new stadium."
Wasps had £95m of debts when they went into administration, which cost them their place in the Premiership.
They have been working with Sevenoaks District Council to find the right site for a permanent new home and would like to enter a league next season, although chairman Chris Holland said in October that they may have to wait until 2025-26 to do so.
"All we are waiting for is a competition to join that will allow us to compete at the highest level - and one that shares our values," said a statement issued on Monday.
Wasps were based at two London locations before moving to Wycombe in 2002, and then Coventry in 2014.

Have you considered moving to a volcanic archipeligo?Fcuking Wasps are considering trying to build their stadium on a great little affordable golf course I play on at Pedham Place, in Kent. Ruined my football club for years and now they are disrupting my other passion in life. They are an utter bunch of kn0b heads.
You think that will stop them??Have you considered moving to a volcanic archipeligo?

They are long gone, and thankfully so but I still think it is worth remembering for the sake of consequence and legacy that this organisation bullied us as a football club, tried to make us disappear, laughed at our situation, evicted us from our stadium and tried to steal support from the city.
Shouldn't forget the complicity of certain influential council members/employees who were willing accessories due to their enmity towards our former owners - or that they let that overide any concern for the football team or its supporters (or indeed CRFC's future)They are long gone, and thankfully so but I still think it is worth remembering for the sake of consequence and legacy that this organisation bullied us as a football club, tried to make us disappear, laughed at our situation, evicted us from our stadium and tried to steal support from the city.

Step up Mr MatonShouldn't forget the complicity of certain influential council members/employees who were willing accessories due to their enmity towards our former owners - or that they let that overide any concern for the football team or its supporters (or indeed CRFC's future)
Seen him a couple of times on the way out of the ground this season…Step up Mr Maton
Not just English either. Ospreys can't afford the costs of groundshare with Swansea City at the Liberty, so are looking to use one of the other club grounds locally, with a capacity of 6,000!! The regional "mega-club" model is failing in Wales, and that is having a knock-on effect on the national side too. For some reason, people just don't want to go to watch rugby anymore, other than in a few select places where it is in the blood (Leicester, Northampton, Glawsterrrr, Brizzle, Baaaaaaath, etc).You have my full sympathy mate. Fwiw, and especially given the state of English rugby at the moment, I can't see anyone serious investing in this. It's dreamers and chancers, just like the last time, gulling the naïve and the corrupt in the local council. Just like the last time.
It'll probably take a few years for them to get found out, but I'm fairly sure it won't end with a spade in the ground.

It's another league that struggles to be viable. Reliant on national union financing and like the Rugby Prem had to sell off a large chunk of its media rights to CVC to stay afloat.Coming to a stadium near me…

It really baffles me that they really can't see the irony.Lol Shugs and co on great form saying it will be good to get away from cheats and they have always been an honest club
That honest it sounds like pretty much every championship team has said they don’t want them in that competitionLol Shugs and co on great form saying it will be good to get away from cheats and they have always been an honest club
I quite like the sound of that. Death By A Thousand PagesThis thread should never be left to die, deserves a thousand pages.
Come on they need to get that kit man back I see to love how he would dangle a carrot for them.
Looking at his tweets it looks like the demise of Wasps has driven him to drink“thanks for keeping us informed Pudsey”
