Nothing underhand or unethical at all. In the absence of someone stumping up the cash and buying wakey the administrators have made it known that players are available and Hull / Huddersfield / Catalans have made signings and other clubs are looking at other wakey players.

The idiotic rumour that ken davy is scheming to sign wakey U18s is laughable. That anyone would believe it is funnier still.

I think that not paying creditors for their services /products is 'underhand' and puts jobs at risk. Also failing to pay £300K+ tax at a time when cuts are being made in public services is appalling. Thankfully the administrator is trying pay a proportion of these debts.

It is also underhand when a club fails to honour player contracts....remind me which club poo'd on its own players in such a way

You saw fit, and been allowed, to use inappropriately emotive language, accusing Huddersfield and Hull of "raping" a club in trouble. If you are going to take such an accusatory and self-righteous stance about putting clubs in a precarious position in further danger, my point is a valid right of reply.

How do you know they wrote off all their debts and did not come to some arrangement with creditors? Perhaps they used some of the money they owe the RFL to pay the creditors a percentage. And before you say well the RFL would not lend us any money, well it was a secured loan on their ground, and due to the bad management and the chasing of the SL dream your club do not own a ground to use as security. Also perhaps their creditors took the view that as they(moss and co) inherited the debts and tried to keep the company going for a year without thus trying to meet the creditors needs, that they would be more lenient with them. Even so the debts were not theirs moss and co tried to keep the company going. Two completely different situations

When will people learn that SL is a franchise system now, and the RFL and the Clubs to some extent will chose the clubs they want in the league and at the moment the expansion clubs will get preferential treatment, the fact is they are not even in the picture as to who would lose their license and never were.

It may seem unfair to Joe public, but the fact is that these are the rules of the competition now, no point bitching about Crusaders. And what is more they have arguably achieved more than you in many other areas of their franchise anyway, for a club in its infancy to get the crowds they do is encouraging, they have brought a good few welsh players through to first team already, they are taking our game to a new audience, improving on the pitch, and so on and so on.

What real growth have Wakefield made in the 12 or so years they have been in super league?

both really sheldon but the young lads crossed the line for me its asset stripping as for mrs b i wont lower myself full stop. i hope wakefield can rebuild their side in time and their club.

If anything was certain to undermine or expose the myth of the rugby league family, it was franchising.

I feel for Wakefield as they look poised for the most prolonged and inevitable relegation ever. They were unlucky that Pickles didn't rubber stamp their stadium and now O'Hara's have decided that the best thing for Wakey's creditors is partial liquidisation (they may well be correct of course - they're the professionals).

Then argue the point - rebut the accusation of rape (which was clearly metaphorical, btw). Dragging in overseas players and Willie Mason's non-arrival turns it into diversionary trolling. And we've talked about that.

The AUP is to a certain degree open to interpretation. Your's is an opinion, on here RBA's is the rule.

get off your moral high horse particularly when you were talking to Aaron Murphy

It ain't gonna help Wakefield short term long term or any term.

Any money is paid to the administrators who use it to pay creditors.

But one could argue the creditors deserve any money they can get.

Makes you wonder how solid this takeover at Wakefield really is.

Is it okay to call you a mule?
