How precious is he?

If Mick can't grow a pair of balls to do his own posting here, then I ask you why you are doing this for him?

micks perfectly capable of posting on here. His problem is he has no self control and ends up posting stuff that shouldnt be in public domain and he ends up in a conflict of interest situation. He's going to be setting up a new username to post official announcements in future.

If you've got an issue with it PM him. he isnt posting but he's still got his rlfans account and still reads boards.

"Official announcements"? Like from the Buckingham Palace?

I like it, I think it's called chutzpah and Mick clearly has it in spades!!

What time do these forums usually finish? Got early start in the morning.

Hopefully somebody will be kind enough to give a brief summary of the key topics and questions. Really wanted to make this forum but work commitments stuffed up my plans.

Only stayed for half of it due to having to pick wife up.
They have had talks with potential investors, speedway being 1.

Kopczak is still a bulls player and huddersfield could be in trouble.

Bateman loves being at bulls but has loads of interest elsewhere, again a potential tapping up problem.

They are having monster trucks in november.

Gameday experience is coming back for the kids.

Hes gonna be chasing akhbar for the 50k per year he promised.

Sundays seems the best day for gameday.

Chev has resigned with us.

6 u16s have been signed up from the scholarship, i know one is a winger called todd binns.

Someone asked if we could play a close rival for our first match, he suggested wakefield?????

Omar came across as quite a funny bloke.

If the Speedway returns, I'll be spending half my wages up at Odsal!

To be honest, there were only a few relatively generic questions after the break, so you didn't really miss much.

Overall, it was more of a public relations exercise than a forum where anything specific was 'revealed'. But that was fine, because its very early days for the new regime, and many answers were along the lines of 'we are in discussions about that'

One thing that we did find out more about was the structure of new club. Omar is 100% owner, with Gerry as co-Chair and Omar's brother (I think they said he is called Abdul) as Vice-Chair. There were two other members of the top management tier present - one guy called Ryan (NOT Ryan Duckett if anyone wonders) who seemed to have more to do with the financial side, and another guy whose name I've forgotten who is focussed on the marketing of the stadium and facilities. There won't be a CEO, the management team will be working as a team.

Then beneath this tier there is the rugby side of things with Stuart Duffy, Francis Cummins etc. It was made clear that the management team will be 'hands off' on the actual rugby side. Cummins will have the whole salary cap to spend, and its up to him how he spends it.

I think I relayed that as it was described - someone correct me if I misheard (the PA was not brilliant)

If Speedway returns it is presumably only a matter of time before Stock Cars return - which personally interests me much more than Speedway...

Well, both me and the Mrs got a real positive feeling at the fans forum tonight. As OK said, things have been at rock bottom, the only way is up. Really looking forward to next season now. Thought FC came across really well also.

the other bloke will be simon who is omars right hand man.

bully don't tell the missis about speedway, until you have paid for the honeymoon,

Yes, that's the guy...

They're crying out for a 2nd Speedway GP venue to compliment Cardiff. Ok Odsal isn't Millenium Stadium but I expect it is on a par with some of the smaller GP venues in Poland/Sweden etc.

The way I heard it was that there is an intent to spend up to the salary cap but it needs the supporters and local businesses to acheive this.

As an aside, when buying my tickets office staff said that some players were helping out with the ticket sales during the day and specifically mentioned Nick Scrutton and Elliot W. I have to say this certainly sends a positive message of the players commitment to the cause.
