I'd like to know what the new owners plans are for league 1 promotion in 2018, as that is our most likely route to playing on a level playing field in the championship in 2019. Relegation this year is more and more certain with each passing day, so id be signing players who are ok being with us for a 2017 relegation and a promotion push in 2018 from league 1. and I'd expect the new owner to budget for and plan for that accordingly, otherwise were in for.failure upon failure.'"
I think that's being realistic, to be fair.
We'll probably find out what is happening for [ithis[/i season as soon as they start announcing the new arrivals - if there's a definite difference in quality from those who have left, then we'll have to draw our own conclusions, but if the quality is considerably[i lower[/i then we'll definitely need to forget about promotion pushes for a while.
I think we'll have to wait until the end of the season before we can think about 2018 though, after all, if there is a decent budget, we may still get lucky and stay up!

| I have just been reading other threads and some are saying the new owners must honour ST previously sold.
My question is:
Some have said they have now got their money back. So, Do they get a free season ticket.
How would the new owners know if someone got their money back as I would be surprised if the credit card company shares that info.
This is a really tough thing to decide on for the new owners. They can't win either way. Reimburse lost money or give a free ticket to someone who paid then got it back.
How would you feel sitting next to someone bragging about getting their money back and then being given a ticket or a group of tickets?

| I would be surprised if the card company shared that data, data protection and all that. The company paying the money back is the card provider for the old co, nothing to do with the new co

| Did those who bought a ST actually get one? By which I mean the card that we usually get?

| It depends on whether they honour them and if they do can they find the list of who purchased from old co

No, just a paper, match-type ticket to use when picking one up on the shirt presentation night - anyone know when that might be? Lol

I'd say the list must still be on the old computers, though who now owns those is anyone's guess.

But the new owner still wouldn't know who got their money back - just who paid it in.
Interesting to see how this goes next week as it needs to be sorted very soon along with a few other fairly urgent matters before 5th Feb.

| I put in a chargeback request on the day Petitt said we were liquidating. I should hear back this week from the CC company. If they reimburse me, then I'll buy new ST withthe new company. They'll need all the revenue they can get.

| Here's my question. All the clubs that took our creative players. Did they not have those types of players already? Or are they just taking advantage of the salary cap exemption to hoard players (increase the squad size may be more polite)
ie - O'Brien to Hudds. Did they not have a couple of SL quality hookers already?
Moss to HKR - did they not already have a decent fullback?
Welham to Salford - did they not have a couple of decent centres on their books at this stage of pre-season?
Rumoured Chisholm to Widnes - I thought they'd signed someone to cover Brown already?
There's going to be some players in those key positions at those clubs not getting gametime.
I wonder if they would be up for a loan?

We could dual-reg with Huddersfield and virtually re-create last seasons team
