Mwahahahahahah

I don't think that's the same thing.
When you are made redundant you don't have a notice period. You are put at risk for a period of time but once they've decided who is redundant you go on the spot with a payment.
Working your notice applies to a compromise agreement where you agree to terminate a contract that has notice already in place.

I think ma's has presented himself in a professional manner. I don't think the job should have been his in such an important season
I don't blame him for taking the job and giving it a go, I'm not sure he should have remained in the job after the big 15 but he was and the board have much to answer for.
I would like to see him employed within the club because I have no doubt he's a Wakey man through and through.
Powell on the other hand will have no connections with the club and I suspect very little knowledge or links with the new owners.
I'm all for outsiders getting positions within the club, it needs to be a complete new slate.
All that remains that the present owners can slope off and the supporters get behind the new ser up.
Just one cautionary footnote, don't expect a SL return after 1 season, because that will. Not happen unless either rovers or Cas stuff up big style.

"Consultation period" is I believe the term used.

Why not ? It's all based on the IMG Criteria after next season and I would expect we will be scoring more that Fev & Cas if the club's estimations this season are anything to go by. Plus the new owner can see which areas he can spend some more money to increase our score in any of the other areas as well where I just don't see that happening with Cas especially with their ownership not really looking to invest anything at all.

Players and sorting staff will be on fixed term contracts anyway so redundancy talk is moot?

Indeed. Cas and Fev are both behind us by my calculation.
Unless we really stuff up the league and they both hit top four and win a trophy, and even then I think Cas would be behind without a lot if work on stadium.

Our area to improve is fan engagement on line. Wouldn't take a lot of effort to lift that.

Exactly

there's no way imo will they kick someone out like cas who get about 8000 the rules will be bent accordingly

Yeah close down this page and the RWB Facebook Group as well and all will be fine and dandy !

Facebook site is awful

Trouble is attendances are open to manipulation.
There’s been plenty of clubs on Twitter singing from the rooftops about increased attendances when they’ve had a poor season. Can see the same happening again regardless of wether they have a good season or not.

The King is dead, long live the King

Today is a good day.

Surely with so much at stake attendances will have to be audited independently? They use barcodes for a start and even though not 100% of season tickets attend each game they should be able to accurately report numbers for the means of IMG grading?

You would like to think so.
But there’s a few clubs started making things up as they go along already!

I really don’t know what the hold up with the takeover is, but international conglomerates change hands quicker that our club!
I’m sure it’s has to be right for the club BUT if it didn’t go ahead JM would still be at the helm.
Personally I don’t have a problem with that but someone with rugby knowledge must do the recruiting!
I sincerely hope it does go ahead because if it doesn’t the future looks very bleak to me.

Well at this moment in time I would let Mr bean take over, just to get the present owners out.
Thanks to Carter the clubs been set back 25 years, what a legacy he's left.
.

Never heard so much crap, If Mr Carter had not stepped in, it would have set us back 150 years

Yes, we're back in division two so I guess that's a fair comment. Using a similar analogy though I guess Richardson and Glover nearly set us back to pre 1873.

Just a lack of understanding of what is going on.

Oh give over by carter's own admission he's failed the club. His words, he's a failure, like it or not
