So the owner of Wasps Mr Derek Richardson thinks they have already been accepted by the Coventry and Warwickshire community , http://www.coventrycity-mad.co.uk/news/tmnw/worth_a_read_wasps_owner_on_why_they_chose_coventry_859582/index.shtml
Well I for one haven't , and never will welcome them here . He says they have always been a nomadic club , but moving 80 odd miles without consulting their fan base was totally wrong .
The Ricoh arena was built for Coventry City Football Club and after a series of well documented events , never has been owned by them .
So we share with the rugby club , although evidence of this is very thin on the ground . Small club badges on display , and very little else . No club shop on site to buy merchandise on match days at the ground for instance .
I also object to the coverage Wasps are getting from the local media , this being the Coventry Telegraph and radio CWR .
Are these not the same organisations that quite rightly objected to CCFC's temporary move to Sixfields ,but seem quite happy to endorse this permanent move .
The Wasps have no affinity to Coventry and Warwickshire and are only here because Birmingham did not want them.
So Mr Richardson please note not everyone is on your side.
