You posted the thread asking the question at 11 o'clock last night and before 8.48am the next morning you've got the answer.

The ground was intended to be the retirement fund, hence the desperate bid to cover his tracks with the bid to raise £500k and his reluctance to go into admin three/four months earlier when he was first approached by by Parkin.

He'd been to the RFL, Offered them £1 Million towards funding the World Cup, Which they are actively seeking funds for, As long as they promised Wakefield a SL Franchise.

This obviously couldnt be guaranteed, May not be the reason he pulled out, But he did approach the RFL, Or so i am told.

The Lord spoke on to me in a dream surrounded by a host of shimmering Angels of which beauty I have never seen.










And this is his word[size=50"We are Wakefield, together we are stronger"[/size

Very close. Basically the RFL had opportunity to make us into a force again but decided not to. Instead they give us cowboy owners for a future of ass instead of a future of sunshine

So damn the RFL for not taking bribes?

jk!

That's just as helpful as saying I know what Saturdays lottery number are and I will tell you on Sunday.


Do you mean it was nothing more sinister than he wanted to own a super league club not a championship club. He pulled out because he didn't get the same assurances by the that the old Celtic Crusaders regime were given when they screwed Widnes out of a place.

it will have been the same voices in his head that tell him to kill!!!!

Yeah, Its the RFL's fault for not taking a backhander.

May i just clarify, I arent personally accusing Mr Parkin of this, Its a story i was told by a quite informed Wakefield fan.

Tbh, Can you blame him for not getting involved looking at the mess of the last few days, He was probably aware that before the RFL cleared him as new owner, The Administrators would sell the star players, And leave you with nothing for this season.

He didnt get his £170m by been stupid.

Surely if he was really interested in WTW he'd of took over gone down and rose again much stronger as SO'C is doing at Widnes?

Maybe RFL learnt their lessons after Samuel offered the sane ultimatum from Celtic Crusaders?

How the hell does Ted walk away with half a million, if 350k goes to the tax man. The level of debate on here is reaching new lows.

Jeez it just gets better, does Ted live in Area 51 as well.

Really, so why did they do that then, I mean RL is just crawling with millionaires - I mean who needs them.

If there is any truth in your mumblings I'm pretty sure the RFL didn't turn the guy away just to hurt us. If the games bent and I'm sure it is, it's bent in the favour of money, in which case Steve Parkin would have got the gig and a few hookers thrown in for luck - get real. Parkin will have pulled out because there simply wasn't enough in it for him, WTRLFC is currently a crock and it would take certain things to be in place to tempt him. I'm sure the RFL was willing but I doubt it was able.

Diskin and Buderus ??????

Those two dont get on well together remember.

Is he a neighbour of yours then?
Tell me where i've got it so wrong then?

Rebel Rebel has already told you twice, will me telling you again change that. As far as I can see you believe what you want to believe.

That's not me taking the high ground by the way. I don't know the full story, what I do know is know one else does either and that includes you. Further to that the full story IMO will never be known and even if it were most people on here would chose to ignore it and carry on with their own version.

1) not saying he hasn't, but has he?
2) never thought that for a minute!!


3) makes your presumption that i'm wrong a bit lame then.

Says on sky text,according to o'haras that the deal is being held up cos the other party keep coming back with queries.Does this mean thar mr parkin is still interested or is rocking the boat for some unknown reason?

I think you'll find that he's referring to Mr Glover !!

It says 'other'which suggests somebody else not mr glover.

Like any buyer, they need to know exactly what they are getting and the terms and conditions before taking the plunge. I believe O'Hara's passed on a substantial contract document to Mr Glover with respect to the sale, he took it away to study, as anyone would, and no doubt queried a few of the terms.

It could be interpreted both ways, but I am taking it to mean that O'Haras are one party and Mr Glover is the other...but I may be wrong....I'm sure I saw Richard Branson driving out of Superbowl car park yesterday

30 admin staff? WTF are they doing day in day out!!
