If you are a potential owner, whether one of those who made a previous bid or someone new, what is the down side of forming on a new club compared to taking on the debt-ridden club, apart from possibly no players? Presumably you can negotiate new contracts for staff, facilities, ground etc, without inheriting having any historic bills?

With fixtures starting in 4 and half weeks you're not exactly negotiating from a position of strength. Why the rush?
If it were me I'd sit out 2017 as under the conditions imposed it's too big a risk to any new venture.

Out of the 10 expressions of interest, I bet at least 7 are Richard Lamb with fake mustaches and disguises on

Because the RFL are insisting on the rush so their Blackpool shindig doesn't get messed up. |

Hmmm. But presumably the RFL will give the licence to *anyone* at this point who says they will fulfil fixtures and play at Odsal. It's at the end of the season when we get relegated, there is no money, and it's easier just to let it die than continue to flog this dead horse when we are completely toast. The one consolation will be to see fans of various minor clubs attempt to use that as further evidence of favouritism.

I think there's a misunderstanding. The 10 expressions of interest are 10 people who might be vaguely up for playing for us when we're in Pennine League division 4. |

| Quote: Bullseye "I’ll say it again. Who is the money man behind the hot air spouted by the likes of Lamb and Irvine? As individuals they don’t have the money. No club will survive the season without a pile of cash. As for being profitable that’s just ridiculous. At Odsal it’s impossible.
As for getting behind a team of whipping boy rabble in order to save the RFL embarrassment for not buggering up the fixtures well Nigel can shove that up his enormous flabby backside.'"
I suspect, a supporters Trust. But that's only my guess and I'd be surprised if sufficient numbers have an appetite for parting with more cash, certainly right now. |

If done quickly ( by the end of the week ) there isn't a down side , if it drags on , it won't happen at all |
