Correct

However I just wonder if those two are hardfaced enough to continue strutting around the place as if nothing has happened.

Quote: Mable_Syrup "

Totally agree Mable
How anyone can not be grateful for the guy who stepped in and stopped us disappearing is quite bemusing.
However, by the sound of things,we are back in the poop and its going to be another tough time for the club and the fans.

I'm hearing interesting things about new investment, prompted by the restructure at the top of the club; perhaps today's press conference will reveal more details?

Hope there is more investment as trying to run a superleague as a business was more feasible when it was franchising. Now promotion and relegation is back then all clubs will live well beyond their means leaving us well behind.

I hope so Bren.

I can't imagine the new chairman taking on the role without further financial help from other contacts.

Fingers crossed.

I completely understand the decision as a business to sell Smith short term.

Something quick has to come out to get us buying those season tickets however.

Although I've posted this on previous occasions when the club were strapped and even mentioned it to the Richardson regimen at a shareholders meeting, maybe now is a good time to approach Michael Parkinson for support. Even if he doesn't stump up any cash, his name next to our club would encourage investment. If any of you have old programs from the Conway, Bell era, Parkinson used to have an honorary position on our board - I think we need him back. Couldn't do any harm.

Surely no one in their right mind would put money into an organisation that had so much debt. There is no way anyone would want to inherit that liability to West Yorks Windows for starters. Also which investor in their right mind
would want Jimmy as a 5% stakeholder.

The only way to attract investment would be a totally restructuring I would have thought and not knowing that much
about accounting the only way to do that would be to clear the decks with a pre pack.

No one invests for money return
You invest because you love the club, or want to give something back to the community, or most likely it is equivilant to your marketing/advertising budget and you get on Sky and in press, etc etc

People who have the money to throw away are few and far between. The main reason is that they don't usually get their money by being foolish and sentimental.

Any money being put into WTW right now would be nothing more than buying someones elses financial problems.
The decks need clearing, you need a straight edge financially and only then would someone consider stepping in I would have thought.
