The players are owed 3 months wages.
Linners is owed 5 months, Darran the physio 6 months, myself 2 months and Steve Gill is owed 3 months.

I still think he should have attended the meeting and given his thoughts on things. Josh and Linners turned up and I would have liked Gill too have too.

I'd be interested to know who exactly is involved but good luck to whoever it is. Fingers crossed it works.

| I think it will work, but the clock is ticking. I know some details, but wont mention names just yet. They are fans/sponsors.
Essentially Shane wants a payout to leave, 50k has been suggested. So he has walked in, taken sponsorship, gate receipts etc. Not paid anyone, including Gary Fawcett. He is possibly set to walk away with £70-80k for nothing.
This owner has history for this, i've heard some extremely unsavoury things about him. Whilst we cant blame the RFL fully....how has the transaction been allowed?

Makes me sick that Shane Spencer stands to make 50k+ out of this but as you say, the clock is ticking and the sooner we get rid of him the sooner we can start focusing on the playing side of things again. We're already miles behind other teams on recruitment and pre season training. Obviously just having a team on the pitch next year will be a success given what we've been through but I'd like to see us win at least some games.

| The only problem with only being able to put a makeshift team on the field is the fact that fans will not pay £15 to watch us get beaten more often than not.
Without a competitive team on the field I fear the crowds will drop to around 250/300.
It will then take someone with real money to come in and start building a team to get some supporters back.

I know what you mean but there can also be the opposite effect, where a backs to the wall mentality, playing against the odds etc actually brings out the pride and fight in the fans.
It's hard to predict, but when we (Bradford) reformed after liquidation, we knew with that squad and a points deduction, that we'd lose plenty and be relegated. But perversely this brought the fans together.
But I would hope that if you can wrestle yourselves away from unscrupulous people, that the rest of us will try to help you out as they did for Feath and Leigh. I know Bradford aren't your favourites but I'm sure we'd reach out to help if there was a constructive way to do so.
