The "wasps are definitely going to go bust" posters I believe was based more on their hope and dislike for us rather than a sound evidence base.
As a business group we have multiple income streams available to us. And the aim is that the rugby club is seen as central to the business, but revenue is gained far beyond what the club itself generates.
We have a portfolio of assets that will make refinancing more than possible, and indeed as a group we have things that can be invested in.
What is not mentioned is that at the club and fans meeting last year we were informed that before the pandemic we were reaching a break even point. The pandemic has caused that to go backwards, but not irrevocably so.
Our crowds are not great, and I think that is an issue with the pandemic, moving to a new area, rugby not being as large a sport as football, and also no longer providing larger amounts of free tickets. But again it is all about time. By engaging with the kids in their clubs, schools etc we will develop a growing fanbase. It is not a overnight problem to be fixed, but a more steady improvement over time.
Do I think we will go bust? no . Do I think we will move back to London? no. Do I think we are establishing ourselves and growing slowly but surely, yes.
