So you reckon he won't have done these sums before deciding to make an offer for the club? I think he might, ya know.

Not sure whether I think he might, y'know given recent experiences - though I sure as hell HOPE he has.

Given that Easter is notorious for causing havoc with injuries FC will be desperate to bolster the squad before then. If nothing happens before then in terms of recruitment I would start to have my reservations.

I remain relatively optimistic, for now.

depends how much changed from making his bid to being accepted, ie how much money the RFL wanted back for payments made and how little they were going to give as remaining central funding....as we all know they like to only give out partial info at any stage.....

he also might be hoping to raise a certain amount from old/new sponsors to help with team building and as yet the ink isn't dry on the paperwork. Did he plan to honour season tickets or was he going to hope for all attendees paying..??

Looks like nobody is going to tell us what distribution penalty we will have to suffer, although if it is secret, then what deterrent value does it have?

if it's secret then the RFL avoid setting a precedent.....lol.....

they are a law unto themselves

Some good news at last www.totalrl.com/web/ferguson-gas ... y-returns/ It would almost be like getting two new players

I hope they are not been rushed back though. I also have a bad feeling ferguson will be used as a prop, meaning no new signings. I really hope I'm wrong.

It probably won't come to anything, but I hope FC enquires about Paul Wood's services from Wire. For whatever reason the guy is not getting in the Wire side and is currently playing under dual reg for Swinton.
I've always rated Paul and if we could get him on loan he would immediately become the best prop at our club.

Wood was injured in pre-season, I think that's part of/another reason why we didn't get Ben Evans.

Two words for a prop, sounds like "He blew it" ... as in Cummins should have signed this guy aaaaaages ago and didn't! Hehe!

Can't believe there has been no real rumours about any signings at all.Ben Evans name comes up every now again for obvious reasons.

I will throw a name into the ring,Glenn Riley

would think the double header at Easter will be stopping a few signings at the minute, clubs will need all resources available over easter

Agreed,with the cup this weekend and then Easter games in 2 week it will be hard enough getting loans never mind permanent signings

Wonder if we will be rotating the squad over Easter
