Much obliged Adeybull, and thanks for the insights. I was looking into the operational rules for the RFL and I can now find no mention of administration or any penalties for financial impropriety, I'm sure there used to quite detailed sections on it. Do you (or anyone else for that matter) know if the RFL have any current codified and published laws/rules for administration? If they now don't exist in the operational rules, which would be convenient for the rfl to take each case on its merits, I would like to know where the people clamoring for points deductions are getting their copy of the rules from (other than precedent). It appears to me we all need to await clarification from the RFL before making rash assumptions that satisfy only our internal need to prove our own point of view.

A great deal of the above was posted at the time the three amigos tried to buy the club from Omar Khan and then, if I recall correctly. refused to pay him what they agreed, and then, again if I recall correctly alleged that the RFL 'advised' them not to pay Khan but to place the club into administration and buy it back with the RFL ratifying change of ownership without a points deduction. Mark Moore more or less said this prior to the points deduction and then the three of them accused of Ralph Rimmer of outright lying when the points deduction duly arrived as a colossal shock to them.

For what it's worth Khan has been demonstrated to have put money in (when nobody else did). Those purporting to buy the club did try to shaft him and welched on a deal. Despite this, I think they're almost certainly telling the truth about Rimmer.

Khan's alleged liberal use of the C word has surely been proved the most apposite commentary in this affair.

Well we can debate this for a while I would think... But I doubt any poster here has enough knowledge of what really happened - that info will remain inside the club for a little while longer..

I know for sure there is a book worth writing here and I would be right in the queue to buy it.

I have dropped two hints to who I perceive is the best person to tell the story - I hope when he retires he does so !

Don't know about Khan, Rimmer, Moor et al, but what I will say is tha Joynt went down with no-one near him and made no attempt to get up. And another thing, Withers never got his fingers to that ball.

A sentence that contains no errors whatsoever - and both events still rile me..

Next time we play Saints in the GF it could be two former foes on the pitch coming head to head as coaches. Very interesting!

The info is not within the club though. We are talking about OK Bulls, and the sale of shares by OK to MM and RW, and the deal by BBNL that fell through to buy the business. The current club isn't anything to do with any of that. Green started with a clean slate, and none of it is to do with him.

The liquidator that Omar appoints will be able to question all relevant parties and that includes the RFL. That's likely the next proper tranche of hard information we will get. RFL answering tough questions? Now that would be a first.
