Some of the overspend on the East Stand was due to needing to change the cladding.

I actually see the sense of football and rugby pooling resources for a national stadium for both sports - they dont play a huge amount of games in any given year and their joint resources would enable constant improvements on the stadium

But, both codes have domestic seasons ending in May - so there would be contention for use of the stadium at critical times.

What do you think it is for ?

Literally no idea, that's why I was asking.

If the RFU don't intend to sell it perhaps they could give it away to Wasps.
Dont kick it. Pick it up and GO FORWARD.
