Commonwealth 7s - Pitch

Oh bliss.  Common sense.

Football club have offered to help with cash flow to achieve that, but wasps not interested. Another indicator they are broke?

I may regret asking this but how is this an indicator Wasps are broke?

When I'm broke and someone offers to loan me money I say yes. When I'm not broke and someone offers to loan me money I say no.

When one looks for ways to reinforce deeply entrenched beliefs one invariably finds it.

At a guess, Sam's perspective is that CCFC offered to pay some of the costs of laying a new pitch, not all of them; accordingly, from Wasps' point of view, it's less of a generous offer of financial assistance, and more of a bill for thousands of pounds that the Club may (or may not) be unable to afford.

Either that, or it's confirmation bias in action!

As I've said, I have no idea who is to blame here and whether we've yet been in a position to affect the outcome.




However, I feel that a few of us should cast our minds back to when we were tenants at high Wycombe.
How would we have felt if we had to cancel/postpone our fixtures due to something that may have been related to the football club.




I genuinely hope that Wasps aren't in such financial dire straits that we've had to let the pitch expire. It'd be nice if we find we can ultimately pin the issue on the commonwealth games or something like that.
But, I do feel that ccfc fans have a right to feel a bit aggrieved

Exactly - the former

[WonkyWasp]

Didn't we pay a fair old bit towards the  upkeep of the pitch at AP?

Yup

Doesn't anyone else remember how bad the pitch was the December we moved to the Ricoh?

Do you mean apart from horrendous?

[WonkyWasp]

It came up liken carpet tiles, and both teams and the groundsmen were stamping it (or trying to) basck into place.  Who used it last?

CCFC had played in Northampton the previous season and a bit and had jut been tricked in to mov8ng back by the duplicitous city council. But as tenants, obviously.

I thought you wanted to be back?
