I think you have to take into account the finances under the previous regime when trying to work out how much money is being saved and who is benefitting from that saving. If as has been suggested elsewhere we were 200k a season in the red just trying to survive in SL then Glover would need to have at the very least halved the wage bill to be able to make enough profit to fund the 'cosmetic' touches he has made. Exactly who are we accusing Glover of getting rid of anyway? Jeffries, who according to those 'in the know' on here was on a fairly low wage hence the security of a 3 year contract, are there any others?

It is not necessarily who AG has 'got rid of', but employees who are not here now but were under the previous regime. eg Diane R, Francis S, BJ, Sam, Millard, Fergy. For me those six would add up to a tidy sum/saving

cant say really but i know we havent got franchise and im not saying through negativity or cos i dont believe we will i know we havent

Maybe so but doesn't add up to a money maker does it? Nobody would take on a sports club, that didn't own it's own ground, to make any money out of it would they? Now I'm not saying that Glover is a 'knight in shining armour' but I'm glad he came in and bought the club. Just trying to understand what the problem is with what he has done so far.

Richard Moore, Tevita Latu and Danny Brough. I know they went pre Glover but never replaced and there are a few more. As I say not judging but it's a fact that they have not been replaced and even bringing us back into line it still leaves some spare IMO.

How do you know? we all expect the worst (even me I've been trying to stay positive and drum up a bit of support but no one was willing except sc ngb4c fergus). I'll support the club in championship and that's whT we all need to do, especially if there is a chance of going up in twelve months time. The whole system is wrong, franchising could work if done properlybut the favouritism towards expansion clubs is killing the game. London should no longer be classed as an expansionist area, they've had 30 years at it and their still flogging a dead horse.

The debts were over a much shorter period than ten years, I could time line most of the big ones from the admin document, and most of the smaller ones would have been written off by companies after 3 years anyway as unrecoverable, Id say absolute maximum 5 years, but it looked to me nearer 3-4

To be fair no one really know if the 1.9 million was everything.

Add to that the SL instalments that have not been spent on players wages and you could have a nice little nest egg to spend in the lower leagues.

Sorry vasty but no it doesnt.

We needed a 7.5k average home crowd to balance the books over a full 3 year period, I know that was the business plan. Fact is we didnt even get that for the home playoff against Catalans basically as others have posted each 1k down from that is 10k of revenue per week, not in a maths mood but even if we averaged 6.5 k per week its 140-150k, and we dont average that in PAYING customers.

Was the name your thinking of JAVINE?

That's the fella - cheers.

Just to answer the question NO he didnt...

mmm... Do you not suspect that AG is perhaps as surprised as the rest of us

He certainly looked as though he'd seen his dead great great granny in the press conference after.

That'll be the "oh shoot! I've got to spend half a million quid on faecal polishing" look.

I think his booty fell out, when he wakes up in the morning he may regret ever wandering down to BV if thats not already happend.


Bless him.

He could sell us onto Parkin now and make a profit. As far as Parkin is concerned in a round about way the RFL have met his demand and we must look very attractive to him.

Maybe, one of the rumours at games pointed to AG being a front man for SP, just a silly rumours like many over the past few weeks.

Was it the shock of staying in SL or the thought of having to now back up what he said in the past?
Lets hope it was the shock of staying up and we now become a regular top 6 side.

I don't believe he's a front man but if he wants a get out he might just have one. Not saying he is looking to get out before his fan club get on my back.

Yeh like the one about us losing our licence on the 26th.CLASSIC.

Don't know mate.

Just think he may regret it

I've heard a thousand rumours but don't for one minute think i believe them.

You should believe them all then life as a Wakey fan is never dull,cos we are the main focus of every RL fan.

AG is elated at the decision and can't wait to get the ball rolling!
