| Quote: Shifty Cat "I know that Carter was appointed by the rest of the SL chairmen to look into where the RFL have been spending money, why it's been spent and if the money can be spent better elsewhere and they get better value - words to that effect. it was talked about it earlier in the year on one of the podcasts with Wilson and Schofield on. That's the only reason I can think of why his name, in particular, is being brought up. We personally haven't got the money and could spend any cash on a million other things.'"
According to that article he isn’t the only person at Wakefield getting involved inquiring about it. Whilst he’s been given a job to see how the RFL spend their money that doesn’t naturally equate to inquiring about Odsal’s availability for Wakefield’s use in 2017.
That article say Wakey originally wanted to use Odsal in 2017, not buy it which came this year, so talk of making sure “fair offers” from the RFL come up don’t add up completely.

Well do you actually know what your saying then, or are you just trying to create something from nothing.

Even if Carter was appointed by the other SL chairmen to look into RFL expenditure. That doesn’t equate to him artificially raising the price of Bradford’s lease.
The fact Hudgell is involved as well points to more than just ensuring financial probity at the RFL. It points more to 2 club owners getting annoyed at what they perceive to be another club benefitting from RFL action while they are not.

It means that he has done exactly what he was charged to do by the other SL chairman, the fact Hudgell is involved does not automatically mean Carter has any other involvement as implied by the Bulls chairman.

| Quote: ThePrinter "Just because that’s what you’ve decided it must be what Carter is doing doesn’t make it true.'"
I haven't decided anything i made an educated guess it's why MC was involved. The post is about what you said though, which was Quote: ThePrinter "According to that article he isn’t the only person at Wakefield getting involved inquiring about it.'" I just corrected you about the 2 people from Trinity that got in touch with the Bulls, which as it says in the article was about the use of the ground in 2017, and as the Bulls say it came to nothing because we sorted out rent with 88m.
Then you finished that post with this, Quote: ThePrinter "That article says Wakey originally wanted to use Odsal in 2017, not buy it which came this year, so talk of making sure “fair offers” from the RFL come up don’t add up completely.'"
Not sure if you're just making mischief but it's clear from your own posts, you understand there was contact in 2017 about the use of the ground and then Chalmers has heard Carter and Hudgell are in for buying the lease, which as I say is against RFL rules anyway but you almost dismiss his job that was given near the start of 2018 to look into the RFL finances and where they've been spent, which £1.3 million was on the Bulls and rather think the worse it seems - bet you wouldn't if it was GH.

He can examine the details of any sale of the lease by the RFL as much as he wants.
If he has artificially raised the price of the lease (or attempted to) he has gone way beyond his remit.

| Out of interest what was the market rate for the Odsal lease back when the RFL bought it, not the amount Hood said Bradford needed to survive but the actual market rate?

What if he's only raised the price to what its market value is?

Absolutely spot on. Carter being appointed to look into how RFL spend their money DOESN’T at all equate to his actions. Trying to act like this is a natural obvious course of action for someone in his position is BS.
Another poster said “would I be saying the same if it was GH”.....well would you and other Wakefield fans be defending these actions if it WASN’T Carter or if it was another owner doing it to Wakefield and Belle Vue? No you wouldn’t so all it seems to be is Wakey fans seeing Carter through rose tinted glasses and finding excuses for his actions.

Carter and Hudgell don’t determine the market value of something. The market does.
