What retirement fund? The guy's in an IVA, for god sake. He's hardly going to retire on that.
Would he have walked away for nowt? I don't now - depends if he knew there was something he could salvage. What do you think was left that he could have got his hands on? |

Teds gone and he got nothing!
Steve Parkin pulled out for reasons he's keeping to himself for now!
That said, I'll endevour to find out what his reasons were.

Well as far as I can see he has had to. So as much as prat he is, Im pretty sure he did not honestly think he had anything to sell to parkin, he was trying to give away a shed load of debt and hassle and Parkin decided he did not want it. |

Probably not true at all. The RFL would love Steve Parkin involved as he has the money and the contacts that Superleague can only dream about.
I'd hazard a guess that he wanted some kind of guarantee over SL status and they wouldn't give it. |

Yes, of course you have!!
Go on then, enlighten us mere plebs with your knowledge.
Or just carry on pretending you know something when quite clearly you don't.
By the way I found out last night what Friday's winning Euromillions numbers are going to be but I'm just going to keep that to myself for now. Alright??

The ground was intended to be the retirement fund, hence the desperate bid to cover his tracks with the bid to raise £500k and his reluctance to go into admin three/four months earlier when he was first approached by by Parkin. |

He'd been to the RFL, Offered them £1 Million towards funding the World Cup, Which they are actively seeking funds for, As long as they promised Wakefield a SL Franchise.
This obviously couldnt be guaranteed, May not be the reason he pulled out, But he did approach the RFL, Or so i am told. |
