Re: Wasps- Who next to run the team??

Agree with all that. The only bottling our lot have been doing is the other sort. I think, like you that its not a short term thing. Decline and fall happens to most empires in time.

Re: Wasps- Who next to run the team??

Yes- drastic loss of talent. The move is still on at the moment but I suspect there will be bumps on the way. We're in the recession phase of the business cycle with the depression yet to come...

Re: Wasps- Who next to run the team??

The reasons for the decline are varied I think. 1.Rush/hard defence used to work well with players who could execute it and before it was found out by some teams. See Haughton to demo the wettest tackling ever. 2.Lack of coaching focus? 3.Loss of some really good players from Dallaglio, through King...

Re: Wasps- Who next to run the team??

What team? It's degenerated into a group of disinterested, unconnected individuals who get hammered by just about all and sundry. Lack of interest/commitment and players like Haughton who just cannot tackle. Spoke briefly to one player after the match and his own assessment; 'rubbish'. It wasn't tha...

Re: London Wasps v Leicester

It might not be as close as that. If the floodgates open for either of us it will be down to a bit of 'dog'. Not sure who has that yet this season.

Re: Quick Query - Car Parking for the Insects Game

Best thing to do is get there a bit early, drive along the road towards AP then go into one of the industrial estate 'car parks'. Cost is 4 or 5 quid. Don't park near the roundabout at the end of Hillbottom Rd - you'll never get out! A good alternative is to go to Mill End Community School on Mill E...

Re: London Wasps v Leicester

Can you bring all your out of form and crocked players please as I think that might give us the chance of a sporting contest. Despite our much vaunted (by us) slow starts we need to gel - but we have a strange combo of youngsters, middlies and oldies. I am hoping for a ding-dong battle. I do think o...

Re: ESPN Free

ESPN sales person at double header said you can get it on freeview but paid my £9 a month as I can't get it on freeview. Looking forward to seeing you at the cul de sac week after next!

Oh and by the way it was absolutely pouring down in Leicester on that day, I decided to take a full part in proceedings rather then get in the car with a pizza. :smt001

Re: Cips off down under?

Hi All Well, first indications in the news today are that he's going. I know that he gets ripped for all kinds of stuff including his rock and roll lifestyle and petulant attitude as well as the fact that many think he's overrated. Grains of truth to some degree or other in all of that. However, eve...
