Unfortunately the RL will not immediately support a club in financial ruin, they will have to prove their worth in the Championship as Widnes have had to do with their financial problems. Playing at barnsley in the Championship would generate only 1500 or so supporters, not enough to secure a future franchaise. So it looks bleak for the Wildcats.
I smell a scabbyRAT!!!!
One of our old friends, clearly mrs thatchers care in the community programme failed after all!!!

| The only way any player could walk away and join another club,is if he didn't receive his monthly salary,so as long as they are paid,no problem,but the administrators,i presume,would accept any reasonable offer for players.Does anyone know who any of the new potential owners are?would Sir Rodney be in a position to lead a consortium?

| Good luck to the Wildcats. Sorry it had to come to this ... the future starts now. I just hope the truth about Belle Vue's ownership comes out - and isn't as bad as I suspect it might be.

| Oh and get some proper scoring for your player ratings. 6 for nearly every player with the odd 7 is a little tedious now

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

| Good luck for the future to all the fans. As a Hull KR fan that went through this in 1997 I hope you get back where you belong a lot quicker than we managed.

| Quote: Wildcatfan "Sad state of affairs that it has come to this but I think we all agree its for the best and now we can all look forward to a bright new future !
Hopefully the millionaire new owner, completely debt free club, outstanding community department, impressive and championship winning academy side and a shiny new stadium on the horizon should allow us to keep our SL licence come June/July.After all the depressing times over the past months things now seem to be going in our favour !'"
surely you cannot be serious......even before this the clubs fate was decided. I for one am extremely sad and think it is completely unnessacary to remove any club from Super League as it serves no purpose and especially wakefield. unfortunately the bufoons at RFL have their own agenda and at least now richardson should go and take the rest of the clan with him. Hopefully a new owner will appear and run the club professionally and when all the above like the new stadium become a reality, and the club running as a profitable business, then I am sure the Wildcats will rise from the ashes and be back.
I would have thought even the die hard fans among you would surely realise that 2012 will be in the championship, and if they dont then they should really wake up and smell the coffee

45047_1329226743.jpg The saying 'bent as a 9 bob note' has now been dropped.....corrected phrase is 'bent as the RFL!':d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_45047.jpg |

| When in administration the expectation is that a lot of Wakey's debt will be written off and the rest will be paid back to the goverment at 'X' pence in the pound. The debt doesn't disapear.....it just adds to the countries deficit......so a special thanks to the Management and Board of Directors at Wakey for further hitting the tax payer due to their incompetence!!!
As for the club and supporters, my deepest sympathies for your team being in this situation!! Make sure that you get fully involved with the club as it re-forms, and never ....never let the clowns at the top or the RFL allow this to happen again!!

On thread drift:
[quote="tb":24qn1m99]Tough. Conversations develop. It's their nature.[/quote:24qn1m99]
Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”
[i:24qn1m99]There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair
with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back![/i:24qn1m99]

| I’m gutted for you all. As a Widnes fan, I know what it feels like for you at the moment. I know some of you think that this is sort of good news, because it will rid the club of a much despised owner, but this could well have serious short term issues which, if not handled properly, could lead to the loss of your Super League licence.
That would be disastrous for any Super League club. Once you are out it is so difficult (nigh on impossible) to get back in. Even with a great well-run club, you may find yourselves overlooked for lesser clubs, which have the RFL X factor – location!
I had hoped that you’d get the 500 shares sold and use the influence that would bring to oust the old regime and negotiate with possible new owners, thus leaving you ideally placed for a licence in 2012; no debt, no administration, a new owner and possibly playing out of Oakfield with your new stadium being built.
I know you could claim that the Celtic Crusaders went into administration, but we all know that it will not affect their bid the same way it could affect Wakefield’s. I think, no matter how wealthy your new owners are, this will probably cost the club its licence. I guess you’re just relieved that it’s all coming to a head and, as there seems to be wealthy owners looking to buy the club, there’s light at the end of the tunnel.
I’m not trolling our showing any sort of schadenfreude. It is always sad to see any RL club go down this way, especially one of the originals with all the history which goes with that. I wish you and your club well for the future, no matter what happens.

Your inept and have been for years.
Uncle Maurice called this over a decade ago.
Let's hope we can finally move on some of his plans that should have been forced on you all those years ago.
