| Its hard to feel sympathy for the club when so many of its supporters have their heads up their @rse claiming this is all a RFL conspiracy.
Even more annoying are the claims that the rest of rugby league is allowing one of its member clubs to go to the wall.
The cold hard facts are that mismanaged clubs (member clubs or not) will go under if they fail to deliver on financial promises, and the majority of the remaining clubs will have to trade on a shoestring budget making ends meet the best they can. If this means picking up players on the cheap then so be-it, Wakefield have happily expolited similar opportunities in the past.
I agree with FeartheVee's comment that there are positives to be taken from the administration route but your potential new owner hasnt helped with instilling any positivity into matters by making statements that he clearly cannot back up.

Absolutely, the administrator isn't going to because it isn't in his best interests, where the hell is Glover? Pi$$ Poor!!!!!

| Shrewd piece of work from Shudds, just like with Brough, they now don’t have to get into a bidding war come the end of the season.
As with Hull FC, there’s no sentiment in SL, it’s a dog eat dog world, however, to the posters likening it to when we’ve picked up players in the past, Widnes, Cas etc, there is a glaring difference. We haven’t been relegated, making all contracts null & void.
We’ve just been shafted by the previous owners, with the RFL looking happily on.

Most of the RFL were probably off work yesterday. I had an out of office reply from one of the backroom staff on Friday, saying they were away for the Millennium Magic weekend, and would be back in the office on Tuesday. Today is probably the earliest possibility for a meeting with Mr Glover round a table rather than a hotel bar in Cardiff. Unfortunate to say the least that the Administrator has been pro-active in the meantime.

But you have been put into administration owing hundreds of thousands pounds.

Neither is punctuation but you haven't grasped it, have you?

So Mr Picky, there’s no difference in the two then?
Did London’s bones get picked when they went bust, same with Crusaders – oh I forgot, expansion, silly me.

He's still keen on the deal, he said when he posted on the forum nothing would put him off, and if this hasn't then he will have been true to his word.
