I wonder if the collapse of Newcastle will affect the takeover because there is now pressure from the remaining 8 league one clubs to join the championship and have two conferences of ten clubs where you play each team in your conference home and away and each time in the other conference once 5 at home and five away. It would change a lots of things. More games but more very one sided games.

One more failed experiment to spread R L , Money wasted, by teams traveling up to Newcastle for what , nothing. When is those in charge going to get the message R L is a M62 corridor sport . Know I will get shot down and we will hear about Catalan. ,one club out of how many. It is like us winning our first game after 15 losses and saying what a great coach we got .And people wonder why those who run R L have lost over a million pounds because of poor attendance in Finals .Answer is cut the cost , Just take finals to Headingley ,give fans of the two clubs who are in the final first chance of the tickets ,then put them on sale. Just too many fingers in the pie from the people at the top , .to get were Rugby union is.

You’re such a visionary.

Monday could be a good day to officially announce the takeover has been completed.
Season officially over, fresh start and all that?

Well defo one too many......

Morning BLM, hope youre well

I reckon, your not too far off there, but then,it's just an anonymous rumour.

Who's to say if there are any holdups, could they be related to the 3rd party stakeholders, such ss the RFL or council, as mentioned in Minards previous interview.

Could there be also, a total re branding as such, with a name change of the registered business (ie Spitrit Of 1873 Ltd)

Are we merging with Newcastle

and getting a pay-out from from the RFL as Shudds and Hull?

The RFL caused the delay with the Glover take over if I remember correctly. The Administrator had to sell players that weekend (Obst? Millard?) because of it.
