Who's censoring? I think all that's being asked for is that points are put across without the constant bickering and point scoring.

Thanks for suspecting but as I said I enjoy reading both arguments and don't favour any poster, I've disagreed with Adeybull on here before and probably will again. In terms of posting my views that's what I did and are doing again now...although you'll forgive me for not going somewhere else just because of one thread, if we we all did that I'm sure this Forum would die.

There's a fine line between outlining your view on your personal preferences for how debates should be engaged and what appears to be sanctimony. Im not here to mitigate my approach or ways of engagement.

You are entitled to interpret or dismiss it as you wish, but this is a forum not the European Court of Human Rights.



Maiselbugs, as usual, hits the nail on the head.

AGreed Adey, could be, or are there clues in his earlier press releases about the pledges, which coincidently cover the last two years. If so then satisfying his curiosity about what has happened in the last two years does not constitute a [ustrategic[/u review.

I broadly agree with that, though I think there has been too much ad hominem stuff.

The club's problems are financial and therefore fairly dense and perhaps Ren boring. Doesn't make them any less important though and I appreciate the time taken by Adey, GB and others to post in-depth analysis of the sort we'll never get to read anywhere else, agree with it or not.

Epic fail

Clearly having no cash is a financial problem, however this is a symptom of lack of commercial and playing success - if you don't get the results then you loose out at the gate and on attracting sponsors.

The opening seasons of the SL the Bulls were carried by a great, successful team, big gates and the "freashness" of the idea. When the gates started to moderate then the income from fans alone made it hard for us to compete against the clubs with big money backing and we gradually sank into the current situation.

Chicken and egg now - need cash to bring the success on the field, but it is the success which brings the cash

Guru is quite well informed....almost as much as I am , right Guru?

Don't shoot the messenger.. but some excellent news may be just around the corner.

I've not posted any 'news' for a while since the streak I had about the signings a couple of seasons ago, but I've heard from a couple of people now that Coulby met with the players this morning. We will not be entering administration at all, and that no players will be sold to other clubs - with the outstanding money problem being plugged by a benefactor.

Make of that what you will.

This appears to be all over twitter/facebook too.. lets hope its true!

Play Nice

Does this mean that we can tear Warringtons Bateman offer up?

You mean the offer that had already been rejected? Multiple times..

Possibly, but as far as I was aware there was a open offer on the table, 6 figures, according to Peter Hood. Forgive me if this is incorrect, but nobody has come out and said it had been rejected.

Peter Hood's been out of office for quite a few weeks now. As soon as this 'news' gets confirmed, that'll be considerable proof it was rejected.

I could kiss you.

Well fair enough, but there's still nothing saying if it was rejected or not.

whats being said on facebook/twitter? hope the news is true if we can do this well under all the financial uncertainty then what can we do with a bit more stability?

Just need the club to clarify this new claim now...

And if anyone from the club reads these forums, PLEASE don't make us wait any longer, as supporters of this great club, we deserve to know whats going on sooner rather than later.

That would be some news!! almost too good to be true

Clearly someone from the club has leaked all over the place the story that there will be an announcement about a deal with a benefactor which solves the short term cash flow issue. I don't readily remember a leak which has sprung up in so many places in such short order, since our Wayne 'fixed' the roof. More Niagara than leaks.

As it's been leaked it so assiduously, I assume it must be basically correct.

Someone at the club told me the same.

Be careful about anything said by people involved with the club, in situations like you find yourselves in a lot of it can be deliberatley planted disinformation (this doesn't just apply in sport - see mindless blatherings by any politician of your choice!).

The Concert Sec at the working men's club is as straight as the day is long. While sober.

Does he go down to the Gym, because it's all true what you hear down their too.

I hear the Fat lady's booked to sing at the next game - The PT instructor told me
