Always a Wasp

It would seem to me that the full extent of this prolonged cheating will never be known. Without a full examination of all the players bank accounts etc and St Nigels companies and those of his children and minions the truth will never be known. Who in todays current climate pays somebody 30k a year to do nothing....apart from Nigels daughter. What else we may never know as Wray is not going to open all his companies for examination.   

Nick Eastwood statement in full
Here is the statement from Wasps in full which announces the break down in talks between the rugby club and CCFC

As everyone knows, we have consistently maintained over a long period of time that we were happy to sit down with Coventry City to reach agreement over their future at Ricoh Arena, once the club’s owners had agreed to cease all legal action or proceedings surrounding our acquisition and ownership of Ricoh Arena.

As reported by both parties recently, we entered such discussions in good faith, based on that principle.

However, we have now been made aware of this complaint to the EU Commission and understand that it was filed in February, well before the discussions set out above were commenced. We further understand that the basis of the complaint to the EU is very similar in all matters of substance to the recent court actions, questions those court decisions and seeks remedial action. Regrettably, this means that the condition set out above for us to enter or continue discussions with CCFC has not been met. The ball is therefore back in the court of CCFC’s owners.

We believe it is in everyone’s interest that Coventry City play their home games at Ricoh Arena, and we would urge the owners of Coventry City to take steps to make that happen.”

i love the response statement from the club........
In response to the statement from Premiership Rugby, the Club would like to issue the following statement:
Unprompted, we invited Premiership Rugby’s salary cap manager into the Club to openly discuss matters related to player salaries.
Whilst co-investments are not part of the salary regulations, we disclosed these transactions in good faith and indeed divulged more information than was necessary.
Separately, following a minor internal oversight, Premiership Rugby was provided with details relating to some of these agreements. We remain confident that we comply with the salary regulations and will continue to support the entrepreneurial spirit and future of our players.

good team performance out there today. I thought the game management in the last 10 minutes was so much better barely giving wuss any opportunity. 

good game to watch, Barbeary looks v useful, quite large specimen for one so young. Im sure when i was that age our games would last about 4hours not 70 mins.
