An open message to Eric Perez from a respected and informative quasi social media outlet.

1) We admire your love of Rugby League and thank you for bringing Toronto into our great game and making a success of it. We wish you all the best with your upcoming Ottawa venture.

2) Notwithstanding the above, we do, however, with respect have a problem with you collaborating (or allegedly being duped into collaborating) with the parties who have brought the Bulls to their knees three times in the past seven years, and who have now in effect let it become a substantially insolvent business. Two such parties include the current and former Chief Executives of the RFL. They we allege are rightfully accused of the following:

i) Repeatedly turning away investors with millions of pounds to invest in the Bradford Bulls underpinned by robust offers to ultimately pay off creditors; David Thorne being a prime example of one such undoubtedly credible investor who was given the Wood/ Rimmer cold shoulder in early January 2017. Why? Because the ownership of our great club had already been gift wrapped for virtually zilch to Andrew Chalmers' several months prior, and in fact well before Marc Green's Bulls even first entered administration. Scandalous.

ii) Unduly penalising the owners they brought in by withholding a large part of the Sky/central funding money or deducting 6 or 12 points before the season started - yes, some of these actions could to a certain degree arguably be justified, but come on guys you know, and we know, you were for the main part seeking to purposefully 'keep our club down'.

Eric - you may wish to consider why would the RFL do this? We now know the answer - and so we aver do your new colleagues in the oddball BBBBB/BB17 consortium - the Odsal land grab.

We could say more, a lot more, but we will wait for say the likes of a judge to rigorously scrutinise matters in due course. The RL tier 2-3 clubs have been way too slow to complain about all this and their calls for a 'truly independent' inquiry, though well meaning, will likely prove to be far too little, far too late. We recommend a far more direct, and timely intervention.

As for the fine mess you've found yourself in Eric we conclude by offering two comments and two open questions:

a) £350K will not be the level of debt as of the end of November 2019; we are confident that it will be at least £500K plus;

b) How much were Nigel Wood and Mark Sawyer owed by Chalmers and/or BB17 as of the day before the recent fans forums?;

c) Do you really want to be involved in an enterprise that won't even immediately pay back the Bulls' ex and current players, and hard working staff, the pension monies that they were in effect allegedly defrauded of?, and finally

d) As a respected RL journalist legitimately commented this evening ..... "[iVery difficult as a supporter to part with your own money for a season ticket when there’s so many smokescreens"[/i.

It is high time for new blood to be brought in; not old, (allegedly) bad, blood.

If Mr Perez should actually register to this forum and in such an event..do you expect a response? I assume you have contacted him direct and that the above is merely for our perusal.

As per usual, and apologies for having to once again be evasive ... watch this space Phil

Out of interest why is anyone taking the comments of nestegg seriously?

Not a single person. Not one. Not even the people in nestegg's imagination who it claims are Private Messaging him/her/them/it with messages of support. They're all made up too.

It's the obsession with an Odsal land grab. it's not going to happen!

Only gullible people are.
Weren't we supposedly nearly £1m in debt and it would all come out before Xmas. Now it is £500k+.
Trolls who spend many hours typing and giving masses of details are still trolls.

If this person turned out to be genuine and took over the club who who honestly want to be part of his little world. I wouldn't, so if they are genuine then they are playing a stupid game on social media when sensible professional people would stay quiet and get on with things in the background. That tells me he is just a troll - yes a clever one but nevertheless - a troll.

The Ghost of '99 says ..... "Out of interest why is anyone taking the comments of nestegg seriously?"

If you don't like what they are saying Because it's clear Ghostie that they are on to summat. You dont need to be a rocket scientist to see that. Charlie and his gang took some stick at first, but as time has gone on that's dropped off big time.

If you, Dilligaf, Wooly07 and Blotto dont like what they're saying then offer some detailed counter argument, not just immature troll-like jibes. Or do what mods suggest and ignore 'em. BTW looking at ur posting history can i suggest that you don't get perturbed by bulls matters and go back to either helping the Rhinos survive next season, or for't next few weeks and months go back to worrying urself about the General Election and Brexit. 2 topics that are defo dull compared to endless Bulls soap opera.

For what it's worth me and my pals think that the eggy's may have got it cracked and could even be good for our club.

For all we know Front Row Grizzly might be Nestegg in disguise.

People lying on the internet? I find that hard to believe....

Downbutnotout - I can assure you I'm just a fan of many years, both of the club and of the sport. I've loked into forum from a distance for yonks, but though i'd join and put in my penny's worth. hope you don't mind.

I and a few similarly minded mates have watched very closely as the club has gone from one weird failure to another and constantly thought WTF at each reinvention.

All I can say is that I have a 'no smoke without fire' feeling about the nestegg group that just won't bugger off. Perhaps the eggers are on to something, perhaps they are not.

I do get a strong feeling that with the latest ownership something is 100% wrong. We always buy season tix and go to all away games, but this year we ain't bothering as it all stinks. The inclucion of certain individuals is defo wrong for starters. That's a fact most of us can agree on.

If the eggers are proved to be correct in their points then we are heading for a very sad day and I seriously hope not. They appear to be persistent in their line and haven't really deviated. That may be one reason why looking over the posts the trend has definitely shifted to their point of view. I think we are probably all lacking a bit of patience. I for one are doing my best to stay calm through yet another sh%tstorm but if it takes a cloudburst to flush out the sewer maybe it might not be a totally bad thing. If eggers are wrong then we plod on under another ownership that plenty are not trusting of right now.

As they keep saying watch this space. I just hope we don't have to wait too long either way.

i won't reply to another troll like abuse message - suggest instead we have a more sensible and intelligent debate. If u dont agree with the eggy's well worded points then explain in detail why you or others think they are wroong. OK.
