You tell us, you seem to know an awful lot about how much the pledge scheme generated?
What is it?

| difference as far as I can see with other deals is the the RFL only own part of Cougar Park' not the whole like odsal ,the Coop only owned part of the ground , similarly Spotland , who the RFL as far as I'm aware helped the Hornets out ensuring that their 'portion' of the ground was finacially supported .....

| Tbf, if the Trin fans boycotted Odsal, I doubt we'd even notice.
Hull KR, that's a whole different tale.

| Quote: Jonesy's a Legend " i am seriously considering changing my alter ego to " Jamie Peacock is a legend and an MBE (or something) and it was the Bulls that turned him into it by sending him to Aussland" i totally dissagree with you on how brilliant this bulls pledge scheme is adey
<as i have posted previously> Yes you are a bit repititious and boring
how can a club without a sugar daddy so you accept that the only reason the whinos have had any success is because you have a sugar daddy be expected run a successful club and on these meagre season ticket sales long term?Never the plan, the idea was last season we would progress but some Aussie and more injuries than any other team suffered saw to that
i would love to see the clubs balance sheet to see what turnover last seasons first pledge season actually produced cash wiseYou show us your balance sheet and we will show you ours. What players have you signed this year? What goes round comes around as I said to a bunch of Leeds supporters a few seasons ago after their 5th defeat to us. Just where are you splashing the cash?
if the bulls continue with it's present downward spiral for much longer,and with spectators paying very little for the priviledge too,then how could the club ever charge more for supporters to buy season tickets or pledges?watch this space
if reports that the bulls have spent the full cap this season are to believed then i am astounded at what some mediocre players must be getting paidditto Whinos. its not about individual players but how they play together. evidence
i personally think that the rfl's intervention this week is just the tip of the iceberg regarding the precarious position of the bulls long term i'm afraidin which case I sincerely hope all your fears are realised...AND MORE. once a whino always a whino.Edit'"

Right, so I'm failing to see what the problem in saying the two situations are the same is? The RFL supported both as much as was required - no more, no less. To say "Oh its not the same as it was 100% of the lease" is nonsense. It wasn't 100% of the lease but it was 100% of the problem. You can't give them stick because they didn't buy the 40% that didn't need securing!

| Wakey and Cas should just merge together so they can build a super club that can compete with big guns like Bradford. They can whinge together in the stands about us instead of each other. I feel they are becoming brothers in arms over this past 36 hours or so.

| Oh dear Jonesy.
Oh dear oh dear oh dear.
I've had some extremely interesting chats this evening with all four of the Bulls senior management team (including the chairman and his fellow directors). I can't begin to tell you how interesting - so I won't.
What I WILL share with you is that I am totally satisfied that this club is now perfectly secure financially, and that the progress made in recent weeks has been little short of astounding. And there is plenty more for the future.
I now have a much clearer understanding about the RFL's intervention. And, funnily enough, it transpires the press release contained far less spin than most people deemed it to have. In shock breaking news, it would appear it was actually largely factual. Yes Jonesy, there IS a tip of the iceberg involved - but its rather the opposite of what you are assuming. I'm going to have some fun at your expense in years to come with that post! Oh yes. Just you watch me!
Precarious position? Not any more, my friend. Duke Peter of Hood has pulled off the mother of all coups here. It takes a lot to astound me these days; but astounded I sure am. I must be, since I had a fair number of witnesses to my astonishment. So much has gone wrong for us for so long, that we were long overdue for a break. Well, seems we sure got that.
But don't let me keep you Jonesy. I'm sure you have to get back to composing a bit more negative waknerage for us to endure. But you know what? I'm going to be able to laugh in your face now when I read it! Not all at once; no rush. I'm happy to be patient. I'd rather have it dawn on you slowly just how wrong you have been - nice and slowly will do just fine!
btw, regarding your salary cap point: regular readers will know my views on the salary cap. And that IMO the words "Salary Cap" and "Wealthy Owner" are a classic oxymoron. One day I expect it will come out what has gone on, and folk will then realise how naïve they were. Until then, you just go on believing that the salary cap works. While you are at it, feel free to believe in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy as well. They are probably more plausible.

You holding out for dinner and movie or something? Quit flirting and give it up!
