If we have a new group of players, new coaches, new owners, a new stadium, new training facilities, and we play in a new competition what exactly is it that makes us Wasps?

We will have finally become exactly what the lovely folk in Coventry accused us of (wrongly) all those times.

Trigger's broom?

We had a period as a republic, but most of us don't think any less of the monarchy because of it and even republicans don't claim that break as their objection to the monarchy.

As I've said before, we do need some link to the previous incarnation. Lol appears to be involved but it would be nice to have a number of people on the coaching & playing side, but until they know which league they're in its hard to start building the squad.

I'd like to see the likes of Jimmy Gopperth, Joe Launchbury and Josh Bassett involved as they embody the Wasps spirit, as well as some of the former academy players if they can get hold of them.

I was being a tad flippant, apologies. Even Trigger's broom had Trigger as a link to the past. The Wasps that recently folded had mostly only memories and the supporters as links to the Wasps of the early 2000s (different players, coaches and ground) yet it was somehow still the same team and worthy of a season ticket subscription and wandering around the country to watch too.

Sadly Kent might be too far for a lot of home matches with family considerations, won't stop us going to more-local away matches and having a viewing subscription if available.
