Lamb is not involved. Derek Richardson and David Thorne are the new owners. As I understand this Marc Green has been very smart. Avoiding paying redundancy money and getting rid of top earners in players.

They published a criteria only one could meet.

Oh no please not more favouritism from the RFL

Can we put this as a sticky to save the trolls having to read all the previous pages before they start ranting that......... we want our cake and eat it......favouritism.........Bulls fans should be grateful......why are you complaining....blah, blah, blah, blah blah

I've posted the same thing! Green and petit panicked and it looks like to me if all this is true they and not the new owner have caved in knowing they will get nothing if liquidation happens

But if someone like Richardson was coming in knowingly we could have kept some especially welham and ob. Hope this new owner has spoke to others not announced elsewhere yet to see it they would be interested in stating

So if all this is right can wasps lend us Kyle eastomnd and kurtley Beale hahaha

Hmm. Hadn't thought of it like that. However I'm not sure what MG gains? If the club is sold then no need to pay redundancy. And if not there is no money in the pot anyway. Or would those owed redundancy pay come ahead of MG in the queue for getting some of the proceeds of a sale? All interesting though.

And thank Christ it's not Lamb!

If we do get a buyer for 2017 these are my thoughts, half of the players have already signed for other teams, (i can't blame them ) so no team! 12 points min deduction or 18 at least as we play Hull 3 times. End the season bottom of the league and get relegated, fan base drops to 17 die hards. Sounds about right!!!

What is this alleged new owner actually the owner of? Forgive me for pointing this out but the RFL own the membership and the lease to the ground. The RFL have also issued the rules of combat for bidding for their membership.

The not too secret meeting is an insult to the intelligence of the RFL. Are they thinking 'if we buy the failed staff and players then they will have to give us the membership' , well actually 'no' they don't owe you a thing.

Prepare your bid by all means but don't show the same lack of integrity and regard for due process that got the club in this mess in the first place. It's funny that certain local Radio commentator's actions in exposing this sham have drawn criticism from players who today have signed non disclosure documents along with the self serving staff that are not worth the paper they're written on.

The challenge is now do the RFL have the balls to stand up to this poor attempt to force the membership from then. They showed courage over the lease so now it's time to front up again and let the official process run its course for the long term good of the club.

Questionable now! Six I would say.

Well wow after the slight bit of positivity seems it's back at square 1

Unless lkke people have said we arent actually liquidated and still in admin then it makes the RFL's process of bids pointless. The administrator has a legal duty to get the best deal for the creditors. If the biggest creditor has reached a deal to be paid the RFL would be on very dodgy ground to reject (whatever you think of Green)

All the above is just hypothetical. If true i would have no idea why the administrator wouldn't keep the RFL in the loop and would be a disgrace if a deal had been done without talking to them.

Anyway none of us know whats going on. Todays a new day part of liquidation/admin which has that many twists and turns best to sit tight and see what happens.
