Quote: The Dentist Wilf "I might be able to help a bit I asked him about the covid loan at a Reserve game a few weeks ago and he said it had be paid off last March but it was all a bit vague and whether that's right I have no idea.
As for the the lease its a fifty year one reviewed after 25 years so that means its up for review and renewal in 2027 and I'm told we are talking with the SMC (who manage it) regularly but they are reluctant to sort anything until nearer the time because of essential work at the stadium that has to be assessed costed and carried out.
As for the investor well that's the million dollar question and no one but no one seems to know anything or are willing to even discuss it and quite frankly if it were me investing and I don't know about you, but looking at today I would be thinking twice about getting involved at all as its looking more and more like a real poison chalice and dare I say a lost cause.'"
Always appreciate your insights Wilf.
Surely if the COVID loan has been paid off he'd announce that the black cloud has been lifted in the media? And vice-versa if it hadn't surely we'd have heard the government were chasing by now? It's all very odd.
Likewise we have been going after expensive signings like Asiata and Lam, if the investment wasn't secure surely that would not be the case.
I.dont understand where this club is heading and that will be a big factor (the other being utterly fed up going to games) in renewing or not
