Maybe O'hara saying that the club will die unless a deal is done today is trying to encourage Parkin to rekindle his interest?

Or am i just being optimistic?

By all ACCOUNTS? Am I MISSING something? Yet another PAGE in the miserable decline!

Not dead in the water just yet........lets all just sit back and wait and see.

I know its frustrating but there's absolutely nothing we can do.

It does make you wonder though how after months of interest , communication, meetings etc between Steve Parkin and the club, RFL, developers - why does the alleged 'bid withdrawal' come at the last minute ??

Doesnt make sense to me. What can anyone say that would put Steve Parkin off at the very last minute ? Surely if it was something major then he would of been aware of it a while ago and could of declared himself out of the running some time back. What can possibly have been said at quarter to five the night before the administrators get the accounts ?

Dont know about the rest of you but something doesnt quite feel right with all of this

This is shocking..............

I had heard that we owe far more than whatever has been revealed and the books are a joke.

However Steve Parkin and his team would have surely seen this first and new the sad state of affairs we find ourselves in.

So the optimism that was going to drive us onto cardiff.. might not be there.

Where's the flippin confirmation that O'Hara's have won the right to be the administrators. That needs to come first before all else. surely........

Anyone allay any fears.?

Take it thers a few skeletons appearing???

Something fishy about all this.

Surely mr parkin knew all the details so why pull out at the very last minute. Sounds like the administrators would prefer him as the one going off there comments. Could it be a last minute attempt to get a few more bob knocked off by mr parkin?

Word was Parkins was the strongest bid and the one most likely to be accepted by the creditors. If the debts are higher than thought and his bid is now not sufficient causing him pull out then Mr Glovers bid is also likely to fall short. Would he be willing or able to up it?

Sounds like the incompetancy of the Richardsons is still haunting us. If incompetancy is all it was.

So, are we actually in administration yet or not???

rlWildcats in administrationrl

No sale today then and it looks like Parkin is out and if they are still asking for investors it looks like Andrew Glovers bid has fallen short as well.

Looks like nothing is going to happen today then. Lets hope it comes to a successful conclusion early next week.

Wish something concrete wold come out either way, this is killing me.

Phew!!

Step 1!

If half the things I've heard are true then theres a helluva lot of dirty washing that MUST be aired in public so that the RFL, the Rugby League community in general and the Wakefield fans in particular know exactly what the people running our once proud club have done to besmirch our name and ruin our credibility.

Step 2!

We'll be back!

There is another slant to the Parkin thing, although I may be way off the mark. Six years ago, he failed to get Leeds United (I have no idea why not). If he doesn't get us, does that suggest that he tries to get everything at rock bottom too much? Those with the deepest pockets sometimes have the shortest arms, and is his desire to get us more connected with how Newmarket will assist a football team? Are we just a mechanism for a bigger prize, which wouldn't be good for us.

Time will tell, but losing Parkin may not be a bad thing, and at least Mr Glover seems interested only in us as a rugby club, not as a means to getting a football club.

Although I might be wrong.

I got the impression he saw us as a way of creating a 'Sporting Wakefield' group, in a similar way to Leeds and how the rhinos and tykes work. May be wrong though.
