Absolutely not, that would be supporting a franchise and that's not something that anyone should do, imho.
No, it's still wouldn't be ok.

What about if they were required as tenants to make a viable business case?
Genuine Question. If SISU had bought 100% of ACL and then Wasps had come in as tenants would that be okay ?
Anyone ?

Well obviously not. I'm a Coventry City fan and didn't want my club playing there.
That was different.
Sisu did it to con people into thinking that fans were backing them at Sixfields in their short term plan.
Wasps are doing it to get a fan base established for a long term future.
In addition a lot of money was spent during the match. I myself spent over £20 on beer and food.
There is more than one way to produce income and the point of this thread is that Sisu need to engage with Wasps and their ideas.
Then you are a selfish hypocrite.
How am I being hypocritical exactly?
Your the one who is now devastated on behalf of Wasps and Cov fans, when a year ago you couldn't give a shit about either.
Are you saying he didn't give a shit about us being at Sixfields? If so based on what? Or are you just looking for a reaction as usual?

Where have I mention Sixfields?
He seems to be devastated at what has happened to the poor innocent Wasps fans and dear old Cov rugby.
He didn't give a shit about what happened to their fans prior to Wasps moving to Coventry. Now that is being hypocritical.

The same as people didn't give a shit about Wasps or Top Class Rugby until they moved here?
Well obviously. When something is on your doorstep you are more likely to take notice of it. That isn't being hypocritical.
What is being hypocritical is pretending to care about a group of supporters whom have been playing outside of their home town for the last 13 years, and not even saying anything about it for all that time.
Well that's why I put '?' because I wasn't sure if when you said Cov fans you meant us football fans, you see how that can be misconstrued, thanks for clarifying.
Yeah but Wasps weren't on our door step, they are now, why would people care then?
So he only cares because it affects him? That's the point I'm making.
Nothing wrong with that of course, but lets cut out all the crap about pretending to care about the fans of other clubs.

If Wasps had bought ACL and CCFC
Or SISU had bought wasps and ACL.
IMO the word franchising would get a very rare mention on this site.
You might get the odd franchising is wrong but hey ho type comment. The deal hasn't gone our way so the teddies are out of the building never mind the pram.

No they would still be unacceptable to me.
If wasps buy us, I'm gone.

I would think the same either way. If somebody had been giving me shit for going to watch the team I support in Sixfields and now gets giddy over Wasps it wouldn't make a difference whether it was SISU or Wasps who owned them.
The biggest difference you will find is that the whole Wasps move would have had a completely different reception if SISU had bought them and moved them up here.
Yes I can't argue with that. That is life isn't though you react differently to two people doing the same things based on your experience of those people
Yes you would do, not 2 polar opposite reactions though.
No they would still be unacceptable to me.

And again - a question that absolutely no one who says we need to do a deal with Wasps has answered:
What exactly are Wasps going to offer us?
They bought ACL for themselves, 100% for 250-years. Has anyone here even seen a hint of them offering the revenues to CCFC. It would be great if someone like the Trust could ask them this question on the fans behalf...
You would stop supporting the club based on the actions of the owners?
I would be gob smacked if wasps bought ccfc if anyone stopped supporting Cov over it to be honest
Why would hay surprise you? Isn't that exactly what NOPMers are doing?

No.
The majority of them are trying to change and improve how the club is run.
