The game as a whole needs to attract more money.

Sounding like their game against Sheffield has been called off. Bringing up painful memories for us.
One of those memories, and history repeating itself, is Mick tweeting info he has no idea is true or not (he's just tweeted Widnes have gone into admin) didn't learn from his tweeting during our admin.

Widnes fans on Trust In Widnes are saying administrator appointed due to be announced shortly, game called off due to insurance issues for players. Also mentioned players told to find new clubs. |

This is pretty much a carbon copy of what we went through a couple of years ago.

| Quote: Nothus "This is happening far too often. If clubs, including ours, are going to continue to demonstrate that they are incapable of managing their finances then I think the rfl need to demand full access to the books of all clubs so that they can block player signings and contract extensions if a club is piling up debts to other parties.'"
Don't disagree with this (in principle) but the real problem lies before we get here...
Marc Green
James Rule
Austria Holdings
All passed the "fit & proper person" criteria (if there is actually any documented process that is)
Lets be realistic, if the RFL are capable of these decisions - there seems little point in assuming they have the ability or will to ensure proper standards are met once the "fit & proper person" has his mitts on the club  |

Marc Green you could maybe given benefit of the doubt passing but Rule had a 9 month suspension from his time at Hull. No excuse.

No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent.: |

The Fit and Proper/Influential Person criteria can only apply as to whether or not there are previous problems.The RFL do not possess crystal balls to foresee how the individuals will conduct themselves in the future.
Green may not have misbehaved previously.
Rule had his problem when he attempted to hoodwink the UK Anti-Doping while at Hull - so NOT financial issues.
The one at Keighley seems strange,but if the company was in different names to the individual who took control - that MAY
explain it.
Until some action is taken against those who cause so much heartache to coaches,players and fans,it seems it will continue. |

Yep, pretty much.
Open books would have allowed the governing body to spot the disaster approaching before it got to this stage. |

They aren't even officially in admin yet!
And two wrongs don't make a right. |
