Not a sentence usually associated with the RFL. |

In Springfield, they're eating the dogs, the people that came in. They're eating the cats! They're eating the pets!:18686.jpg |

Gary Glitter is looking to invest in another sports club by all accounts. Apparently with a front line of Young Bent and possibly Keane Aston Villa have caught his eye.

The RFL have been fairly quiet of late, no threats, no promises.
Part of me hopes that it was Ted and his mismanagement that the RFL want shut of and not one of it's oldest member clubs.
I wonder if they're stalling for time to see what's going on and what state we are in mid season before making up their minds.
We are at rock bottom just at the minute, but within 6 months we could be a totally different prospect, if this takeover comes off and if we end up with a much shorter inquiry than people expect what with the bespoke timescale thingy.
A reinvigorated Wakefield Trinity with backing and a show piece stadium giving a sustainable future, would take a lot of dislodging from SL, and with a successful up and coming Football League club all thrown into the bargain, what a boost to sports fans and the city.

As we all know administration no longer counts against a club with respect to a SL license, but a poor financial position will. If this guy buys into the club and commits, much in the same way Steve O'Connor has with Widnes, then Trinity will be in a good position to retain their license. |

Bet going into administration will count. |

Maybe it's all wishful thinking?'"
Maybe he wants a new headquarters for his warehousing business? |

Maybe he does, but he doesn't have to buy a rugby league club to get one. |

Yeah but if he really wants to be in as a 'main player' in the newmarket development, owning the rugby club that plays at the crucial community stadium would put him and his company top of the list.. Anyway whatever the reason I hope he takes over asap! then we can talk about beating Leeds, Cas, Bradford etc etc instead of whether the club will exist anymore! |
