And don't post them here. This stuff's been done to death.

Why Craven wants to drag it up again I don't know.

Slow news day?

Crap journalist?

I've just read the article and I don't see what the problem is. Peacock's point is a basic statement of fact. Hood could have called the administrator in prior to begging £500k and the net effect would have been the same. Had he actually done so prior to borrowing £700k from RFL and then selling the lease and losing all that money as well, the likelihood is the club would have held onto more of its assets, never have had their sky money reduced.... and so on and so on.

I don't see what's up for debate.

I thought the title was referring to the financial management at the Yorkshire Post!

Despite what is being saiid, I still think the perpetrators should be named and shamed, and possibly banned from any future role in rugby league. Further an in depth investigation of what went wrong would serve as a guide to future directors on what to do and what not to do.

I think that the latter part of the saga might be too embarrassing for the rfl for the facts to be made public.

thats clearly an issue for the RFL, however given their stated disenchantment with micro managing clubs it is highly unlikely they would have any appetite for uncovering stones only to find a mirror beneath. However desirable such a rev iew is, I am confident that in Marc Green we have rather luckily ended up with an owner that is aware of the pitfalls of sports funding and keeps the hype to the minimum, and is prepared for the long haul. So my focus is the future, not the past, the rake has been worn out as far as this forum is concerned whatever ashes may still be left.

Note that the OK saga rumbles on, and if he wins his case about the conduct of the creditors' meeting and gets to appoint the liquidator (of OKB) then an investigation at least into the most recent farrago, of sorts, may well result.

good point FA, its not diverting current management from the rebuilding task and its the most baffling one.

I wouldn't hold your breath a liquidator is unlikely to do anything other than what it says on the can - liquidate the company and I don't think that will include dragging any one in for questioning.
Just hoping the club can look forward now to a few years of good financial management - which will make a very pleasant change

Not having threads about 'management' would be nice..almost like the old days, though when I come to think about it. Enough already.

What!!! just when I was about to post my 10 page analysis of the last 10 years complete with 3d hologram graphs and a succinct fifty page introduction by FA?!!!!

Go for it. Screw Bulliac. It's what the people want.
