That's just as helpful as saying I know what Saturdays lottery number are and I will tell you on Sunday.
Do you mean it was nothing more sinister than he wanted to own a super league club not a championship club. He pulled out because he didn't get the same assurances by the that the old Celtic Crusaders regime were given when they screwed Widnes out of a place. |

Yeah, Its the RFL's fault for not taking a backhander.
May i just clarify, I arent personally accusing Mr Parkin of this, Its a story i was told by a quite informed Wakefield fan.
Tbh, Can you blame him for not getting involved looking at the mess of the last few days, He was probably aware that before the RFL cleared him as new owner, The Administrators would sell the star players, And leave you with nothing for this season.
He didnt get his £170m by been stupid.

Surely if he was really interested in WTW he'd of took over gone down and rose again much stronger as SO'C is doing at Widnes?
Maybe RFL learnt their lessons after Samuel offered the sane ultimatum from Celtic Crusaders?

How the hell does Ted walk away with half a million, if 350k goes to the tax man. The level of debate on here is reaching new lows. |

Jeez it just gets better, does Ted live in Area 51 as well. |

Really, so why did they do that then, I mean RL is just crawling with millionaires - I mean who needs them.
If there is any truth in your mumblings I'm pretty sure the RFL didn't turn the guy away just to hurt us. If the games bent and I'm sure it is, it's bent in the favour of money, in which case Steve Parkin would have got the gig and a few hookers thrown in for luck - get real. Parkin will have pulled out because there simply wasn't enough in it for him, WTRLFC is currently a crock and it would take certain things to be in place to tempt him. I'm sure the RFL was willing but I doubt it was able.

Rebel Rebel has already told you twice, will me telling you again change that. As far as I can see you believe what you want to believe.
That's not me taking the high ground by the way. I don't know the full story, what I do know is know one else does either and that includes you. Further to that the full story IMO will never be known and even if it were most people on here would chose to ignore it and carry on with their own version. |

1) not saying he hasn't, but has he?
2) never thought that for a minute!! 
3) makes your presumption that i'm wrong a bit lame then. |
