I'm afraid so, the L***h posters receive message alerts when the word L***h is mentioned & their on it like a rash.

If any of you have any will left - good luck.

Bless....

Just leaving this here if anyone still fancies watching RL seen as a lot of you seem to have 'had enough now'

Actually Leigh is not a village, with a population of around 70,000. And also, Bolton's Reebok Stadium, is 3 miles nearer to the Leigh Sports VILLAGE, than Wigan Athletic's ground. What's your favourite song by the Jam, is it 'The Bitterest Pill (I Ever Had to Swallow)' or 'Going Underground' ?

Wow, you really are desperate for fans. Perhaps it's time you stated cutting your cloth accordingly?

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so Fartown copy us again with our naughtiest cheap ticket deal to shore up support. The only difference is they do have a sugar daddy, they would be well and truly screwed without him and crowds barely larger than we get in the championship.

Only Bradford born because his Dad (a music hall performer at the time) was playing the Bradford Alhambra on the same night.
And if you want to know why there is a restaurant at the DW Stadium called "Rigaletto's" it's because it's named after his dad's stage name...Tony Rigaletto.

I assume the Under 5s free is age and not IQ, otherwise they might be giving away a lot of free tickets.

That is the implication of the statement. Administration protects the business from winding up, for a period. On the other hand it may be a way for the prospective investors to get the club unencumbered with the HMRC threat. Clearly there is enough of a dispute for the court to adjourn twice, but it now sounds as if the Bulls case is about to unwind, no pun intended. So the outcome in terms of points deducted cannot as yet be determined, because if we come out of admin with all creditors paid off, why should there be the same penalty as coming out off admin with only a % paid off,

El Tel, you are not going to change my mind: It is wonderful that a town like Leigh has a sugardaddy willing to support their towns club, we have not and that is a pain.

6pts as opposed to 12pts

It’d be interesting to know how much debt there is. I expect the HMRC to be in the region of about £200k-250k. Green’s put himself in the list of creditors too (which makes me feel that he’s on his way), then there’s the various other bills that won’t have been paid. Could be the thick end of £750k+. Would a new investor want to lumber himself with that for the sake of 6 league points? That said 12 points is a fair penalty if no debt is paid off. Unfortunately as we know admin is never a quick process. Potential buyers (if there are any) will need to do full diligence checks and that could take time. If we get out of this with a mere 6 point deduction I’ll be amazed. This bloke might be our saviour. He has a good record at City, not sure about his plans for Odsal, think any BMDC input is going to be unlikely. www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/s ... Bulls_bid/

I still want to know what the VAT dispute is in relation to. I can't think of any source of income the club might have had where we could even begin to dispute the VAT treatment of it, it boggles my mind.

If we really are looking at debts of £750k then how could anyone get it so wrong? Whatever happened to running this club like a business? I mean, in this season just gone we actually had a decent level of central funding, season ticket sales were around the same as 2014, all our major sponsors were still on board - I can't really think of anything that could have thrown a spanner in the works as far as cashflow forecasts are concerned.
And before anyone suggests the Fev result or our final league position - that can't be it. Yes the drop in gate receipts from the playoff games will have hurt but not to this extent. The reduced central funding issue hasn't even kicked in yet - that's for 2017 if we make it that far!

Just baffling. We've had to suffer through a (seemingly) endless succession of owners who are just incapable of running the Bulls with even a hint of competence.
