Quote: JEAN CAPDOUZE "It is indeed fascinating. So don't be sarcastic.

The question is

Is London Skolars a franchise and is he planning to relocate all of the "junior" players that are currently on The Skolars books ??
Please explain.

So Argyle might buy 25% of shares in London Skolars, he can't even move them 'down the river', never mind abroad.

I don't know the answer to your perceptive and relevant question.

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover. There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg

This.
If the RFL relax these rules then I'm done with them....... The f&=%Ed London I. 2008........and London offer more than any imaginary NA franchises. Argyle. Sniffing around makes me think someone has told him. No. to a second side and he's trying to circumnavigate the rules.
Would Hector sell is another pertinent question?

Leigh fans are spreading false rumours on their board that Toronto Wolfpack owner David Argyle hasn’t been seen in weeks. What utter nonsense, he was sat with Paul Rowley at the Salford v Toronto game.

Argyle taking a 25% stake in the Skolars is a strange one. Perhaps he just wants to help them out financially and on how to attract massive numbers to games, as happens at Lamport Stadium.

Eric Perez is not the owner. David Argyle is.
Westleighjim said the Toronto owner hasn’t been seen in weeks.

Either way, he never mentioned DA. I'm sure he wasn't meant to twist anything like you do. He obviously thought it was EP (Ex owner/founder),after reading the TW forum.

Eric Perez is a Minority shareholder and Director, so an owner, albeit a minority one. If you feel the need to lambast Leigh at every turn, at least be accurate when doing it.

Back on thread. The well read folk at TotalfacistRL.com seem to think he's trying to buy a seat at Fridays meeting, as he doesn't currently have one. Again, not sure of 25% permits him a seat, but it assuredly breaks RFL operational rules as to multiple club ownership.

Again. Not sure why Hector would be interested in selling any part of his club? He's built it from the bottom up and has shown what can be done on a shoestring....the Capital Challenge and the Friday Night Lights are streets ahead in terms of putting down roots and attracting interest.....both are projects they've stuck with and both are seen as "must attend" events in the capitals RL circles.
