Find the games on rugbyeurope and even MLR interest me more than the premiership

Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: The Future
« on: September 28, 2023, 02:52:36 PM »I was watching a programme about companies that are being registered at addresses that know nothing about them.
How about registering Halo25 at StoneX stadium and Halo26 at Welford Road - that'll stir up a load of comments on the various chat boards!

Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: The Future
« on: September 20, 2023, 09:05:12 PM »Is it possible for 2 clubs to play at the same ground in the same competition? Could be that both Wasps and WW play at sixways in Prem 2. The pitch would take a beating
Thought the pitch was artificial? So not a problem. Guess it would come down to attendances/ economics if risking paying 2 lots of salaries or one

Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: Summer Internationals
« on: August 07, 2023, 03:16:46 PM »It was difficult to find a pub showing the game on Saturday and it will be worse for next few weeks as the Premiership Wendyball
will no doubt be shown at the same time.
Saying that if England can't even score a try against a poor, inexperienced Wales what's the point of watching?
Social club in village last year were quoted ?500 to show autumn intls (Amazon via sky box)
For the few extra non regulars it would bring in ,deemed not economic. Fortunately, in the end, chairman managed to get a letter covering him from Amazon to say he could use his own personal account. But can see why pubs ( unless they already have a big rugby connection) wouldn?t be interested

Being reported that England exception for JW won?t be extended. If he isn?t picked ,by the end of his contract he could qualify for France?

Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: ERC 1/4s
« on: April 07, 2023, 10:44:06 PM »Don't think so: https://www.epcrugby.com/20204/06/heineken-champions-cup-semi-final-venues-3/Why does it always feel like every year Leinster ( or Ireland B ) are so favoured ? With the choice of independent s/f being their second home. If the stonex can be picked then why not Ulster at least?

Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: Birmingham City
« on: March 18, 2023, 09:38:45 AM »Am I missing something? I thought the training ground wasn?t/isn?t owned by Wasps ,so why would Wasps benefit from any income?
I think it goes like - Holland owns the Training Centre, Holland owns Wasps therefore Holland is happy it is being used and therefore Wasps are fine with it.
I?m pleased that the training centre is being used and that maybe some of Hollands investment is being repaid , it?s just that some of the comments make it sound like Wasps will benefit financially,which I doubt- apart from maybe covering Pudseys groundsman wages.

« on: March 04, 2023, 11:20:38 AM »Must have spoilt your view😀
Entertaining game 42 all. 12 tries ,maybe two scrum resets whole game , similar number of time off for medics . Plus easy to get food and drink .Will be quite happy if Wasps get there to play . Don?t know state of their finances but was impressed with the set up.
