| If it really was just a temporary blip as claimed then surely our money man should have put in a short term loan - got the players paid - and this would never have got beyond the four walls of the club.
Now we have this embarassing public annoucement that once again we have cash flow issues, and while Bateman and Whitehead should learn to control themselves on twitter what they were saying was essentially right. If you were a player currently thinking of signing on the dotted line for us then this must be about the last thing you want to see.
Poor management I am affraid and I still wonder if you scratch the gilding from OK it's lead underneath?

| I'm worried about how this is going to look to potential signings.

| The club is experiencing a 'temporary financial issue' and our main sponsor is a pay day loans company

| Oh dear not good. Lets hope this is resolved ASAP!! But does not sound good.
Going to go into a rant now, although it not the RFL'a fault we are struggling again, they have made life damn difficult for us!! If the worse does happen as we go into admin for a second time wonder if the RFL will think it was worth it keeping our main income source. they also managed to stop us having a home game for several weeks which again does not help.
Maybe instead if coming up with blue peter ideas for the league structure next year they should actually concentrate in doing their job and maybe get a sponsor!!
Lets hope this gets sorted! COYB!

The trouble there is, while it might be easy for you or I to lend our mate £20 until payday, shifting round assets to cover the money for the monthly wage bill at a sporting club is probably not going to be as straightforward.
There have been known problems regarding the Bulls banking setup since OK took over. How many remember getting a receipt from a hotel when you bought your season ticket? Or Omar stating at the fans forum that he'd had trouble getting a bank account for the club.
Add to that you've got brand new people in charge of the club who are still learning what running a SL club entails and tbh I'm surprised there's not been anything other than a slight delay on wages once since the club changed hands.
And that's not counting the lack of income from the huge gap we've had between home games which won't have done the club any good.

| Well. What a surprise. I wonder what all the OK lovers have to say about this then.
This guy is a complete bombscare. We are NOT in safe hands whatsoever.
Sadly however, the next time will probably be curtains for the club.

There's a world of difference between being unable to pay your staff and being unable to pay your staff on time.
However, given the excellent result against Hull which has put us back in the play-off hunt, there's been very little doom and gloom for you to rub your hands in glee over in the past week, so I bet you're loving this.
Yes, it's a poor showing on the clubs part to allow this to happen. However, given there'd not be a club without the people currently in charge, I'm willing to give them a bit of slack.

Another meaningless comment. Who are "the OK lovers"? I think we should be told, if you want to discuss them.

What? Loving the fact that, once again, the club are a complete embarrassment??? Aye right.
However, if you wish to see a narrow win against a Hull side with eyes on the CC semi final as a massive boost then fill yer boots. You take your comfort.

Plenty are usually quick to defend him. What have they got to say on this issue?
