| Agreed Bulliac. However I'm going just to see who else is.
I'll let you all know what's discussed.

| Not much else I can share, but two of the bids are very well funded by wealthy people and this administrator seems to have a done a very good job in attracting serious people this time.
It's not a blind process for the administrator, the bids are all assessed side by side and financial due diligence is well under way.
However, whilst I know that two of the bids have wealthy backers who can prove the same it doesn't necessarily mean we're about to acquire a free spending sugar daddy - but I'd settle for one who can pay the hard working staff each month and on time right now.
BTW think about CC's connections in the wider game and the emotional ties to the Bulls that might exist for some of those people, that might help in understanding who his backer might be - it ain't rocket science

| I thought it was just me being dim. I have no idea who Caisley's connections are. I don't know the bloke.
The only person who has mentioned an emotional tie with the Bulls recently is Mark Lawn by way of his late wife. Whether the two know each other is beyond me but I wouldn't class lawn in the Koukash money bracket.

| I was thinking the other day about former players of the Bulls who might love the club enough to invest, but have any of them made it big enough to have the sort of money they'd need?
Only one I could think of is Sam Burgess. Wasn't Caisley his manager when he made the move to Aus?
What if Sam had a word in the ear of his boss Mr Crowe and convinced him to buy/invest with him in a feeder club in the UK?
The stuff of pure fantasy I know but what if.....

I thought it was bought for about £7m (between 2 of them)?
The last time I looked up how much Koukash was worth it was about £250m. Not sure how accurate these websites though.
