Quote snowie="snowie"Bodene Thompson now leaves Toronto, can't use the visa excuse any more as Leeds showing how it's done https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/53763790 Who's next'" The visa thing always had a whiff of convenience about it. Mind you, having a "Canadian" side that wasn't actually Canadian or based in Canada, may have complicated things. When they become the Bradford Wolfpack or Toronto Bulls, there probably wont be the same issues

That would put a cat among the pigeons

You are getting warmer Folks.

I seriously hope not.
The death of one club to facilitate the promotion of another is just grubby and certainly not something to be celebrated.
After some of the dodgy "mergers" of the late 90's early 00's nothing would be a total surprise.
Surely, as a Bulls fan, after the "favouritism" over the "iconic" stadium debacle, you should want your club to progress through the proper channels and not want to arrive back in SL via some pseudo merger.

Were some of these players on holiday visas? Or student visas?!

Oh don't talk rubbish. If the Billionaire somehow dropped to a Half $Billionaire he still has more than enough money to pay the players contracts up. As for the drivel about [i"assett rich cash poor" [/i you read that crap somewhere else and copied it. If someone in big business has shares in companies they can sell them on the stock market and realise the cash in 24 hours.

TWP are a limited liability company with no assets, allowing Argyle to walk away, and walk away he has, leaving families in the lurch it's disgusting. Same for Ottwa Aces Ltd. another phoney set up with players signing on, BUT now knowing the financial risks they are taking. OK it's an adventure so these lads are taking that chance to swan about as a new wave of transatlantic RL players on an adventure. Anyway their risk, they now know what can happen......

But this has nothing to do with "Expansion" at all it's Perez just mucking about on the fringes of the game here.

Why do you think? It can't be because he cares for them? Maybe you can say this was the players look out, especially those with families, and maybe it was.

Obviously if he had the money he would pay the players.

I offer up the only credible reason why and apparently that's rubbish.

Go figure.

1. Go look up all the limited liability businesses that are wound up to the detriment of staff with the mega rich owners walking away still rich. Try Arcadia and Philip Green as an example.

2. Then go and Troll someone else.

Oh course it's rubbish you in their mind would think otherwise but delusional people with delusional dreams,

So what your saying is there is no money in their account who would run a business like that bar for a conman

Not defending the guy or his business acumen but try this: Aussie mining magnate resident in Canada, while head poncho of Potash Company in Brazil.Due to Coronavirus he is prevented from leaving Canada.He is unable to sell shares and is certainly prevented from selling his part of the owned businesses he jointly owns with his friends.His bank accounts have run dry.How do you expect him to free up some money?

I cannot see him continuing in the sport, nor do I see our financially impacted sport continuing attempting to fly out to Canada to play further games.
I don't see Argyle being 100% honest, but cash flow problems are certainly understandable given his,and the current,circumstances.

Not in any Argyle account according to the trolling above, all Argyles accounts have run dry, not only that all his shares are worthless and won't sell on the stock market, and despite well over a $Billion of assets none are currently realisable, and he somehow can't even borrow some pocket money from his banker against his extensive assets either









You couldn't make it up - but they do
