| Quote: MarioRugby "So, lets get the ball rolling...
Koukash has billed this up to be a "major" press conference. What are we all expecting? What do we think he'll say? What can we expect to be announced? Who will be talked about? Will we have new players?
My opinion and guess is that he'll announce he's going to sue those people who have made erroneous claims about his finances. I'm also guessing he'll announce the signing of at least one player probably Dave Taylor (although this isnt the best time considering he's playing very poorly over in Oz at the minute). I also predict he'll announce the contract extension for Cory Paterson, Junior Sau (god help us) and at least 2 academy players. He will clarify Bobbie Gouldings role athe club and may even announce a role for Tim Sheens. Iestyn Harris will either be revealed to be leaving at the end of the season or he will announce a contract extension for him as well.After this I think there will be a lot of fighting talk about how he is going to take Locke and Puletua and Brad England's solicitor to court and how they'll regret challenging him etc. He'll have to clarify the situation with the kit supplier as well and I think there will be a simple explanation for the alleged County Court Judgement.
My main hope though is that all this is done professionally. As has been said, if it turns into petty points scoring and name calling it will reflect badly on the club. Koukash has attracted a lot of media attention to this and even Rugby League Week in Australia will be reporting on it so anything said will reflect our clubs reputation to Australian/New Zealand players.
All of this is just my guesswork however and even Harris has said he doesnt know what to expect. Whatever is said its worth remembering to treat it with some scepticism. Just because Mrwan has said it doesnt mean it is enshrined in law and is 100% the truth. Marwans version of events will just be another side of the story and we will only find out the real truth either in Court or when the house of cards comes crashing down.
Either way, Tuesday will be an interesting day - hopefully for the right reasons!'"
you definitely have inside info.

I didn't say every club Jools did I? Some clubs will obviously be more financially reliant on their benefactors than others. As you say about Huddersfield, they would struggle to maintain their current status without a new benefactor, should Ken Davy decide in the future to walk away from the club.

Of course its loaned jools. Ken Davy, Calvert at Cas, Eamonn, O`Connor, maybe Moran as well put money as Directors Loans. Whether they ever take them back (Calvert did) depends on the cicumstances.

Perfectly correct EB. At the moment, if Dr K walked he'd get nothing back as all the money injected has gone on running the business and paying off the previous company debt. From the last accounts I think the Cash at Bank figure was just a few thousand!
IFIRC all the money that Wilky put in was done as loans to be repaid to his pension fund which of course never happened.

Yes I don't think any benefactors in RL realistically expect to see their money again. It's just a very expensive hobby.
