Am I the only one who thinks our new owners aren't being entirely open, transparent and honest about this process?
It's easy to blame Atlas after their recent behaviour, but we have literally no idea what is going on at Wasps. I am not willing to give them my complete unwavering trust just because they bought a brand.
They have said as much as Derek has.
Derek isn't trying to revive a dead rugby club that is absolutely reliant on fan support to stand any chance of success.
Also have you considered that he might be staying quiet in order to not cause any bad feeling that may damage the chances of any future club? Let's imagine that there were serious fallings out before the end, and that some of the people on the other side of the argument are still involved. How would a former owner detailing that help the new club?
Derek has lost truly mind-blowing amounts of money in this and if he is at fault it is simply for not being a bottomless pit of cash for other people to take.
You appeared to be questioning the silence of the new owners and implying they might not be trustworthy, at least that is how it came across. I don't agree if that is what you meant.
I think the comparison with Derek's similar level of silence is fair. You trust the guy in charge on the way to oblivion and who says nothing but not the purchasers who are equally lacking in public prouncements but have at this time not done anything that we know of. That seems a bit odd to me.
Criticising Wasps Legends for silence is not right when their silence is obviously due to the situation not being finalised.
For the second point, no, I don't want an explanation.I think all Derek has to do is say sorry for how things turned out, not start a discussion as to exact blame or any such. If he does or doesn't it won't matter. I am happy to leave that out of any debate, but let us leave Wasps Legends to do their thing and judge on the outcome.
Our new owners have a right to say nothing, and would be well advised to do so until everything is in place.
