Always a Wasp

So that is it. From 2003, a great win for Japan, two great semi wins, and a peripheral role in a winning team

Sounds a bit like a Monty Python sketch - Yes but apart from ....... what have the Romans done for us? 

He's had a good World Cup record up to 2019 but he's had his day and should now go out to pasture and enjoy his money and family.

Don?t think anyone is saying they are going to stop following wasps if the new ground is in Kent,




It looks suspiciously like those that have said "I'm done" do intend to stop following Wasps.

That of course is their prerogative but I think it's strange that there's lots of supporters from my town in North Oxfordshire who travel up
in their cars or on the train to watch Liverpool which is 30 miles further than the proposed ground and Manchester which is 20 miles further.

To put it into perspective I rode on a train to Amsterdam in June and last month rode down to Barcelona via Marseilles on a Vespa Scooter
so I'm hardly going to be put off by a 115 mile 2 hour ride/drive to Kent.

No I won't get a season ticket like I probably would if we had a ground in North Oxford but home games would be cherry picked and it would be special days out and the odd hotel stay.

Great news that the club has these ambitions and we will get to see the team again as looks likely.

I too was led to believe Sinners were the healthiest in financial terms of the 10 clubs left.

Nothing surprises me anymore in this game so could be true although I would of put money
on it being Tigers or Falcons next to go.

I'd like to think the clubs in Prem 2 would not be forced to have a minimum 10K capacity to compete

That would scupper the whole idea in one fell swoop.

Hopefully investment in the clubs would follow once TV rights have been secured.

As for desire, who knows?

Where are you seeing these messages that good news is coming?

The comment was attributed to Scrivener by someone who was speaking to him at an event at the weekend.

Backed up by someone who quoted Dallaglio saying something similar recently too.

I think the top four ranked teams are head and shoulders above the rest.

It would be nice if France or Ireland could break the World Cup winning stranglehold from SA and NZ

''nearly half signed'' means that over half didn't sign. 



Reading through it, it states there were other council members who support it but were not currently in a position to sign and others still who also agree with the points made but didn't think during a World Cup campaign was a good time to raise the issues.

Wasps amateur club is Wasps FC not Wasps RFC

Sorry if that is pedantic but they are/were two different clubs
