Quote: TRB "I actually believe the opposite now. I think we would have no chance with the current regime - despite all their efforts - but that by bringing in new money and management we may have a chance, and if that means going through admin to get there, then thank God for Crusaders and the rule changes they brought us!
Have the rules changed? Or are we just assuming Crusaders have reset the bar?

Hope you're right.

The rules were changed - so it is no longer automatic.

We have always thought that we would not be given parity on these matters, but the feeling is now more that it is our financial situation that was hindering us.

We may still get the boot, but nothing is predictable in RL!

Quote: Starbug "Ime glad there is somebody on here showing a smidgins of common sense , I take it from this post that Mr Richardson has been in control of WTW for around 15 years ( with a period where somebody less liked had the helm ) , people don't hang around at a pro sports club that probably doesn't make a profit for that long if they are inherently dishonest , with the way things are looking he is now out of his depth financially , is that a crime ? , is he the only person in this county who in the last 3/4 years is no longer able to'"


The problem is, and has been for a while, that under his stewardship, poor decision making is a year in, year out thing. Some questionable choices of employees, and doing stuff as cheap as possible with poor results.

Case in point, Wildcats TV is just a copy of what a lot of pro sports clubs are doing, but when you haven't got the resources to do it properly, it just looks crap and would be better without it.

Quote: vastman "Just out of interest, and frankly I'm beyond caring - if Ted resigns now, what happens next?

I really don't know but I assume whilst he is there WT exist (in a fashion) but if he goes we no longer exist as a company just a pile of debt.

Until the white knight arrives, is it not a case of better the devil you know than nothing.

Quote: vastman "'"
Yes Ted needs to go even if he hasn't deliberately done wrong IMHO. But before he does he owes us the time to allow others to step forward.
Quote: vastman "'"


So for me it's yes but not until a mechanism is in place to move the club forward.'"


erm, let me think! QUESTION,... who owns the ground vastman...

Has the wool been pulled over your eyes too ? c020.gif ?

running the club as a family business
the way hes left us in a mess

these are a few off the top of my head

finally vasty hes ruined the good name of our once great club. a name that stood for something, a name that years ago was one of the biggest names in the world.

With a little bit of tweaking and mixing we could turn that into lyrics for an Eminem, Julie Andrews collaboration.
