Except the points form the season carry over into the bottom 8 playoffs, so our resigning of Sam Burgess might not help that much by that point. |

You do realise you've walked into a wake to tell the bereaved how much you hated the deceased right? You're THAT person. |

Nothing to do with the lease why not have a part time club with that amount of players or a full time club with less players.
You was not in superleague get you bully spectacles off this is down to how its run not the rfl or the rent'"
1. Nobody blamed the rent.
2. Everyone agrees that Lowes and Ferres signing 30+ players was partly to blame.
3. Lease = paying for the upkeep of the ground. That's cost £100ks. A SL Bulls couldn't afford it on crowds of 15k. A part time club on crowds of 1-2k certainly can't. |

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

Maybe not a Greek tragedy, but since most of it is done on the net these days, it could be a Geek tragedy, I guess..

This is quite a turn of events, if true. It certainly poses more questions than it answers.

If this was the Wakefield or Wigan boards then the idiots would be banned after five minutes.

Don't blame it on the rent, blame it on the boogie.

| Quote: KCNBABT "Just found out of my son that all players and staff have been told to meet at Odsal today at 4pm to meet the new owner. He's in a social media group which Leon have told all the players who don't have a club lined up to get to Odsal this afternoon. I asked how can this be possible with the club liquidated but on a message from Stuart Duffy he says the club technically hasn't been liquidated and is still in administration until the liquidation papers are in court. It all sounds positive news with Leon seeming confident a deal could be done as early as weekend.'"
Blimey. Talk about more questions than answers! What a feckin rollercoaster. |

If the club hasn't officially been liquidated and is still in limo like Stuart Duffy says it is then could a new owner just appear to buy the club and satisfy the creditors with the administrator? |

Just me. I spent a part of yesterday sharing my plan for the brick by brick removal of Featherstone so it could be rebuilt as a museum in a place people might want to visit. |

Without knowing the details of what's going on it's very hard to say. If it's not formally liquidated then it's still admin. If it's still admin then this bidder will need to satisfy both RFL and creditors. The terms of the deal may affect the sanction imposed by the RFL. It all sounds a bit weird and far fetched. Who is the mystery bidder? Not Green?
