Can we just hurry up announce we’ve been sold to Ashley and ready the 10m transfer kitty for January. Is it too much to ask?
That's my point.
For years we have heard "We have no say over ACL, talks need to be between them" but then over the last few weeks, it seems Reeves has been very involved (not just the takeover).
It isn't just them saying they are involved though. That's what I mean.They're saying that they're involved, Nick, but that's not the same as actually being involved.
Again, whatever Duggins claims, what actual power do the Council have to control who buys ACL?

Think your probably right, I cant see Reeves et al being involved in the administration process of a private company other than to help ensure City games get put on. The only folk that know whats going on work for the administrator and until they say its sold to x everything is pure speculation. The council would only be told of anything in the event of the lease being returned? Council just engaging in a public back slapping contest to big them selves up for publicity.
Because if we go with the prevailing argument that he wants both club and stadium, what kind of maniac would want to buy football club *and* stadium, without finding out if the football club's even available?!?I don’t really understand this idea that he must have already had dialogue with SISU ‘why would he,
Did Simon Jordan say SISU are open to selling?
Our club has always been available to someone who would offer enough.But the stadium is up for grabs now, the football club on the other hand isn’t.
Presuming MA does secure ownership of the stadium and given the type of businessman he is, you would have to think he’d be looking to secure ownership of the football club as well.
I don’t really understand this idea that he must have already had dialogue with SISU ‘why would he, unless I’m missing something here he holds all the cards and when the dust settles SISU will surely be seeking talks with him.
If he gets the stadium, IMHO SISU are ‘for all intents & purposes’ finished at this club.
a, sell for a quick lump sum and make a sharp exit.
b, sit indefinitely paying rent to an unmovable landlord with absolutely no prospect of a future windfall.
Not saying he's involved in the Administration process and running admin.
The council know full well who the bidders are etc though.
A friend of mine has bought in to the ”wasps have more season ticket holders in CV post code than not” story. No idea if that was true or not.
They sold 76 for this season
All of whom now wish they hadn't
Now we know that MA was involving in trying to refinance the bond, that article reads like a plea to MA to buy us...Hedge fund puts Coventry City football club in play
The hedge fund owner of Coventry City FC is open to offers from a buyer with the clout to capitalise on financial difficulties at Wasps, the rugby team that owww.thetimes.co.uk
Don't particularly want Sisu to stay and it'd be an outside bet I know , but could there be a possible return for Sisu if the club achieved an unlikely promotion. Couldn't achieve the same return as you could with the club and it's stadium combined but still some return on their investment. More likely to go the other way based on the financials.But the stadium is up for grabs now, the football club on the other hand isn’t.

If Ashley isn’t interested in the football club why’s Richard keys commenting on the cbs purchase it via Twitter?
Keys was on the money last night so he and Hoffman must be ‘advising’ him on something?

Thoughts? More important things than Ashley.
Yeah but which variety has replaced them or has there been another content reduction?That's just fucking wrong, they were the only ones everybody disliked and I got the lot !

If Ashley won’t put money into CCFC as indicated on bbc cwr by the Newcastle bbc correspondent then he certainly won’t with London wasps. They will stagnate for a couple of years in the rugby championship in front of two men a dog in Coventry so I can’t see how London wasps can finance themselves to get promoted and compete.I doubt if any thinking about Wasps is as short term as that. If Ashley wanted to own them, or at least be associated with them, he would see them as a Rugby ‘brand’. Maybe Frasers want a slice of the rugby clothing market? If they are in a lower league for a while and not making money, that wouldn't bother him – the brand can easily be rebuilt. He’ll be thinking that in a few years there could be a European Rugby Super League or whatever, and one way or another Wasps would be on board with that. It’s not a meritocracy unfortunately, money talks.
Bounty are the only ones I liked.

I love the Bounty ones. One of my favourites.
Not a Bounty fan, I have to say. This is all academic anyway as I'm more of a Quality Street man.
Absolute Wanker

I like the bounties but I don't touch them until the end so I get an equal share of the rest then all the bounties when everybody else is done
