The Bulls have always been my side. They always will be.
However, if I think that things are wrong or not up to standard then I have the right to a say on the matter. Some people are happy to just bury their heads in the sand. Pathetic.

| It's like the Life of Brian on here sometimes.
We should be united against the common enemy!
The Judean People's Front???
No! The Romans!
Oh!
Let's cut out the arguing among our selves please
This episode is a complete mess. Obviously there are issues behind the scenes with money or the players would've been paid on time. It isn't good and no amount of spin can make up for it.
....and I'd have thought someone would've proof read that statement from OK.

You only make comment on the negative aspects of the club. Even when the club do well, you belittle the effort.
However, while asking what someone defending OK would say, you seem to ignore it when anyone says something.
And you call it an "old chestnut" to say there'd be no club without OK. So please, tell us all who else was ready to step up and take control of the club. Seriously, I'd love to hear all these names of people who were in far better shape and a much better choice to save the club from folding. You clearly know them all from what you're saying.
You say you have the right to to say you're not happy with how the club is run. So why don't you say it directly to the club? There's an email address on OK's statement. Maybe you could make some suggestions as to how they could improve the running of the club? Perhaps you could do something other than just whinge and whine like a 4 year old with a skinned knee.

Yet I would say you do the exact same thing ME and bury your head in the sand to the good that OK has done...
Is he the perfect chairman? no! Is he the messiah? no! No one has ever said he is another other than what he is.. a man who saved our team when no one else did
I think you just love to hate on something... I doubt you enjoy the rumours of admin but some people just need something to moan a little about! Prime example was your comment on the Hull win... 'a close win over a team with an eye on a semi final' nevermind how well we performed against a team that hammered us 70+ last year when we had a bigger squad
On topic... it sounds very worrying again but hopefully OK is true to his word and sorts this quick! We don't need all those headlines again

They are? What did they quickly defend him from, when did they do it, and who are they? One example will do, don't go mad.
Quote ="mystic eddie"What have they got to say on this issue?'"
I don't know. Maybe you could ask them, as nobody seems to know who you are talking to. You seem to be making a point by posing rhetorical questions to people you can't identify.
Quote ="mystic eddie"... if I think that things are wrong or not up to standard then I have the right to a say on the matter. '"
Yeah, because there are plenty who have said not being able to pay the wages on time is right, or is up to sdtandard.
Quote ="mystic eddie"Some people are happy to just bury their heads in the sand. '"
And there you go again, Having a go at unidentified people for unspecified things. I find it odd.

Think it's more the fact that you only ever comment on the negative and never actually support the club, if you had valid arguments and used reasoned logic in is said arguments I don't think people would take to your comments quite so badly either.
If you're so fed up of the standards at the club you can get the clubs email quite easily, why don't you think of some real, thought out suggestions and send it to them? All the ranting and raving about things you can hardly be called an expert on does nothing but damage the club.

| The thing about "other investors lining up to buy the club" can be expanded upon from Guilfoyles report from 4 weeks ago. I'll try and get the relevant bits on here.

| With the sky money halved, the revenue from home games becomes more important. The Hull gate was a bit lower than I expected. Maybe OK was expecting a bit more as well.
Also does anyone know if the payment the club gets when they're on Sky has been halved as well? The payment which theoretically compensates for a smaller gate?

| We don't need the 50% Sky money. Also we can manage with income from just the one home game in 2 months or whatever. Because we have a money tree.

| I always worried that this might crop up again what with us getting half the sky money and not having a home game for 2 months. If the likes of Wakey on the full sky money are struggling for cash then it's no wonder we are.
The money better go in the accounts on Thursday.

Not sure there is going to be much to enjoy now to be honest. No one will blame the players for not really being up for this one.

| Have the staff been paid? Few people saying that players earn enough and should save but what about the staff who live from hand to mouth or even the fringe players and youth?
I feel for all players and staff as you can't be told one thing on Friday and then for it to change 5 days later. What other cover ups are out there?

| I just get the feeling the RFL are hoping we fold, Sky money, lack of regular home games, same poor ref for our games or if he is not the ref then he in on the line, disturbing.

| Lots of direct debits will need to be paid in the first week of the month so this couldn't be worse timing.
