According to their official release they plan to bid for the CBSA not sure how that works with the Ashley bid.

Good news for the bond holders if this is right. A bit of competition between 2 successful businessman with big egos is going to push te price up a bit.

Great news for the football club, great news for the city and bad news for the lawyers that have made a living from SISU’s perma-litigation What’s not to like about that.

Seen some comments that suggest his business address is the same as SISU's

From the satement :

“We have made it a priority – and one of our first acts as majority owners – to submit a bid to acquire the CBS Arena. We are keen to meet with Coventry City Council representatives and others as soon as possible to set out our vision – which includes the regeneration of the area.”

On second thoughts, could it just be a 'convenience' address or something similar?

Expect King will now make his excuses and leave the scene. No idea if Ashley has a penchant for rugby.

Ashley has a liking for money, so if he can rent the stadium out to 2 separate sports clubs & leverage the hotel, casino & exhibition space, then I would expect him to do so.
Whether Wasps want to or be able to afford to, are different questions all together.

If Wasps want to exist they will have to suck it for a year or two.
