| Quote: altofts wildcat "Reading through the thread it appears to me that it makes perfect sense for Parkin to centralize his businesses in one place (Newmarket). It is also true that Guisley need to improve their ground shortly and by moving to Newmarket he can get Guisley a new ground for free which again appears to make perfect sense. The only thing that may cause issues is moving Guisley to Wakefield, we wont know whether they will loose or gain fans by doing this. As for buying us, it would make sense for him to invest what is probably loose change for him in order for him to effectivly control the newmarket stadium and also it would probably be cheaper to run two teams out of one stadium then it is to run one team because it would give him all round income as opposed to just football in the winter or rugby in the summer.'"
Just playing Devil's advocate here but what do you reckon he'd do if Newmarket doesn't come off which is, in reality, a possibility? |

Mr Parkin sounds the ideal future owner however don't build your hopes up just yet.
Ted is still around pulling strings.

I would have no idea to be honest we would just have to wait and see but from what i have heard and from what i know i expect Newmarket to pass through the public enquiry. |

As I understand it, the SoS must suggest another more suitable site if he turns NM down, we will have to build a stadium there, as he won't be able to turn that down.
I can't see him turning down NM now, it's just about the length of time it will take, I am heartened by the news that this will be looked into separately and get the feeling that it won't take as long as we first feared. |

HI all. I've not posted on here since the old forum. It's good to be back with you.
If as you say NM is been looked at as a lone issue. Then we may find we have a decision before the RFL deadline.
NM will get the seal of approval.

Meaning he's trying to make life difficult, or he wants to stay in charge of the club, or what? |

I would say he'll try to hang on and if he can't he'll make life difficult. |

I'll take your word for it. I'd've thought he'd be glad to get shot. What is there left for him to gain? |

"of it" is kind of implied, but if you think it'll raise more laughs than an "edited for accuracy" joke, by all means, try your best.
