It has always been my understanding that working alongside Chris Holland, there has been the likes of Scrivs, Kenny Logan, Chris Braithwaite and others with the potential for negotiating different levels of investment depending on what the RFU "allow" or the "powers that be" come up with in terms of "Prem 2" and pathways within the league structures going forward.
Understandably no one will commit any significant levels of longer term investment into a new club/company until they know what this looks like for their survival or progression.
The current RFU debacle and some negative feeling around some "issues" with the World Cup doesn't exactly make that position any easier right now.
There is also the "legal cloud" of the concussion issues surrounding the whole game as well that could potentially cause some "institutional" investors/sponsors to be very cautious about getting involved at this moment in time until that starts to get "resolved" in some way?
All in all, lots of things to start getting resolved before we will have a team to watch and cheer on once again, but hopefully we will get there.
Given the time that has elapsed, I'd rather wait and be as sure as possible that there is a good future to look forward to for everyone concerned be they investors, sponsors, fans, players, coaches and all the support staff.
I have really missed the week to week involvement and excitement with Wasps, but sort of got used to it now and can't find any interest or feeling with any other games really.
I'm pleased to read about our "old" players and coaches doing well, but still hope that we will come back and I can hopefully get that enjoyment (and frustration!) back again as it was great to be a part of it.
