I know it was agreed ago back when we still had daylight at 8:00 pm but as Mark Sawyer said at the fans' forum - no one was willing to step in and save the club, and with the deal to move to Dewsbury in jeopardy IF the club ended up in administration, then you can see why Mark has stepped in on albeit in an advisory capacity.

Eric Perez is doing a lot of the day to day running through Tracey and Paul until the club finds a chief executive.

Did anyone in here seriously want the club to go under for a fifth time? I'd be surprised if that was the case.

Well said - you've encapsulated everything that needs to be done.

Thats why the TUPE was invoked which cost the Club and Sod Hall money and also the chance to stay up because of the Players and Staff being refused it and then having to go to a tribunal!

Some changes have been made to the list of directors on Companies House website. Mark Kilgallon and Sandra Wood are now shown as being active, The Orcas Rugby League Ltd has resigned, but Andrew Chalmers is shown as still being a director.

and The Orcas are still the person with significant control.

Good and valid questions.

We may have had our differences of opinion in the past, but let's' try to get on to the same page moving forward.

A brief answer to your 3 queries as quoted above is as follows:

a) Odsal land grab.

b) All except AC were chosen because the RFL had a strong hunch or desire that they would fail, or if they didn't terminally fail, then the RFL hierarchy (Wood, RR and Moorhouse) knew that they could craftily impose fines, withhold central funding etc and consequently the owner incarnations of Hood, then OK, then Green would be thrown under a bus c/o the RFL. This is NOT a conspiracy theory; it's based on facts that we have to hand, and they will be released in to the public arena within say the next 4-6 weeks, and/or passed on to a truly independent body as part of a fair and thorough 'investigation'. In summary over the past 8 years it is alleged that the RFL and Wood have been doing their utmost to stop the Bulls being successful. Why?; see a) above.

c) Up to circa mid 2017 we understand that the RFL's fit and proper person test (FPPT) only vetted a pending owner's business background/ dealings in the UK geographic region. That conveniently meant that AC's failed businesses etc in the ANZAC region were not accounted for. According to one of our RFL insiders the FPPT rules have changed since. Regardless, the FPPT process adopted by the RFL is allegedly a sham and has for the main part been based upon wholly subjective and partial decisions. For example AC's FPPT was signed off by AC's friend - NW.

Trust is thin on the ground.

Things need to change, and we are reasonably confident that they will. Watch this space !

Charles c/o the NEC.

Agree completely with that.

I've nothing against expansion, the more the better, to be honest, but the Euro/Nth American league should be a separate division from our domestic league, all be it with some of our better teams involved. If the overseas clubs 'take over' our domestic league it will kill the game in the UK.

Instead of hanging onto the information for an independent enquiry why don't you release the information into the public field. Perhaps that would then force an ennquiry.

Changed now to BBBBB LTD.
