Creditors of £5m. Maybe administration and reboot is the way forward, in a lower division obviously.

Only a diehard fan would buy any SL team right now, only Wakefield turned a profit last year and that's through operating on a shoestring and look at how that is now going...
Then SKY could send the game back to part-time with a click of their fingers with the new TV deal. You'd buy a team as a plaything if you have money to burn and that's all.

If the debt is as bad as people say then losing our SL spot would end the club, no doubt so this isnt an option in all reality. I mean I dont get why you would think that is.
The trouble is one minute Pearson says one thing then in the next he is saying tbe opposite. I have heard he has turned down investment.

Clubs have ended before and risen from the ashes. It was almost an annual occurrence for Bradford not so long ago.
I’ve seen implied criticism about Pearson turning down investment a few times. But, in fairness, you need to know the scale of the investment and what the investors want. If somebody is offering to put in a quarter million, that’s a fairly substantial amount of money but if they want a 60% share of the club and, with it, control then I’d understand why he might be reluctant. I’m just making numbers up, but not all offers are good offers.

The only person to state AP turned down investment was Rockandrolla on this forum. I haven’t heard any such thing anywhere else. It’s a bit like Bonaire, if you say something a lot of times it becomes their truth but you don’t have to believe it. Rumours, rumours everywhere but not enough to think or believe.

It wasnt on the forum I heard it but like mild rover says not all investments are wise to accept.

The trouble we would have is if we went down that route is we wouldnt be able to play at the MKM as Bradford could still play at Odsal. We wouldnt have anywhere to house 10000 supporters and grow as a club.

Would depend on the new lease terms I guess.

If that's a reference to me then i said no such thing.
I do know there has been a recent investment in to the club as a close friend's nephew as just been given an 18 month contract with the academy. In his meeting with Pete Riding, Riding said an investment had been made but didn't allude as to whom it was.
