| Thanks and welcome aboard!  
When are you throwing us a party in the flats then?!? 
Oh and personally, I thought it was nice to see you post on here so i'd say keep it up or at least have a weekly blog on the official site. |

| Quote: tigerman10 "Very good news for you today, but I was just wanting to know if Richardson has gone altogether from the club now or does he still have some part to play in the new consortium.
Also how does the HMRC thing work now, I thought if you went into administration all debts were writen off but if that is the case why does the club still have the hearing in a couple of weeks.'"
I believe that when Mr Glover buys the Club the money he pays over will go to pay creditors (in part) and that will include HMRC so that debt will be paid.
Thanks Mr Glover. |

| What a wonderful to start a season without even touching a ball. Hopefully the club can now put this disasterous off season period to bed once and for all and concentrate on the rugby.
Thank you Mr Glover, and welcome aboard!  |

| Quote: altofts wildcat "rlhttp://www.wakefieldwildcats.co.uk/2011/02/wildcats-announce-new-ownership/rl
Although i was originally drawn by the proposed wealth of Parkin i am extremly happy that Andrew Glover and his consortium have won the battle because from what i have heard they have the best interests of the club as heart which is what i personally want.
I have the feeling the future of the club is now assured for a very long time and whether it is in SL or NL i don't care at the moment because all i am currently bothered about is that we have a club to support.'"
Just like to say how good a press release from the club looks without Ted Richardson's name as chairman.
Congratulations Mr Glover and I would echo the sentiments of previous posters in thanking you for saving the club and hopefully taking us to a brighter future |

I often wonder what it would be like if Wakey were as successful as your lot. I think I'd get bored. Silverware might be few and far between, but its bloody interesting being a Wakey fan!

Superb answer ..so easy to follow a winning side - love Trinity & tonight feels like we've won the challenge cup . Might be the Northern Rail in a couple of years ....but so what , we're still alive

i have had a strange feeling tonight. in the back of my mind i always knew someone woud come in (and tbh i thought it would be steve parkin), but when i read the news that the spirit had bought wakey, i felt relieved and happy, like i hadn't felt for a long time.
i have now celebrated this fact with a few bottles of bud. long live the sprit of wakey and i am sure that the loyal (and new, and stayaway) fabs will now get behind the club.
rollercoaster on the up.....

"Castleford's biggest home crowd of the 1991-1992 season wasn't quite 12,000 while on average they'd sit around 6000 but the noise, the chanting and the singing just blows you away" - Tawera Nikau "Standing Tall"
"I can tell you the atmosphere was extraordinary at Wheldon Road on big days. The ground held around 15,000 people, every one of them close to the action on the field and the noise would be enough to send a rumble through the town" - Malcolm Reilly "Reilly - A Life in Rugby League":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39793.jpg |

| Quote: tropical1 "does anyone know who else is in the consortium?'"
Well done! It looked for a few hours there that come Wednesday it would be "Game Over"
The term "Consortium" has been mentioned a few times on this and other threads.
What consortium?
Spirit of 1973 is a limited company with only one director - Andrew Glover.
Who else is to come on board?
Anyone in the know?
See you all (well some of you) tomorrow! |

What land are you referring to ? Belle Vue does not belong to us so he couldn't have that. I believe now that Tillion are in receivership it now belongs to the Bank of Ireland who provided the mortgage and has 1st charge on it. I think we are paying rent to the receiver of Tillion to play there this season. |
