I'm stating a fact. Unless you have evidence to the contrary?

That's not how it works. You made the accusation - put up or shut up.

| Quote ="Sheldon"Wasn't that to merge?'" We were in dire straights with no money and in administration, Wilby tried to get us on the cheap (Almost for nothing) but was told no he then went on and got FC, shortly after the Irish consortium(sp) appeared.
The Irish lot wouldnt give any assurances over playing at craven park, keeping the name or anything else.
You call it a merger if you want but it kinda speaks for itself and the administrator thankfully saw right through it.
Like I have said both teams have played that game and neither came out of it with any credit.

| It was Hull KRs very own chairman Barry Lilley who was the main instigator at the meeting that denied Hull FC the chance of being relegated. He hoped that rallying the other club he would would force FC out of business and many KR fans at the time where cock a hoop over the plan.
Thanks Mr Lilley
Where the two Irishmen part of the plan to close you down or part of a merger plan, a plan your Mr Lilley proposed in 1995. Wilby wanted KR and FC to merge to get a promise of SL out of the RFL, FC won promotion and he no longer wanted KR anymore and that is the fact presented in the programme "Trouble at the top " Rovers Return. Putting that into a well known clip site will get you the whole story in three glorious episodes, laugh so much my sides hurt
Thanks again Barry
I would contribute a few pounds to a statue raised in his honour and few more £££s for the flock of specially prune fed pigeons that would be needed to sit on it ..................

The Irish lot appeard after Wilby but well before you got promoted.
If he didnt intend to on closing us down then why did he REFUSE to agree to the continued existance of Hull Kingston Rovers and if he had got us without those assurances what would have happened then?
We BOTH know the answer to that one don't we.
The joint team would have played from the boulevard, would have played in the colour of Hull sharks and would be West hull based.
So you pretend all you want that Wilby wouldn't have shut us down in the 'merger' but anyone looking at it with an open mind can see it plain as day.

So in otherwords.
I (Tarquin Fuego) want to lambast rovers and their former chairman but then the very second someone reminds me of the facts that I conveniently forgot I'm going to start getting upset and then start throwing insults.
Have I missed anything?

Can you actually show evidence of these facts.
I've done business with Tim Wilby and have spoken with him about what went on when he tried buying rovers and his reasons behind it.
The documentry that is shown on that certain site only show certain bits and certainly didn't tell the whole story about what went on at the time and unless you where actually involved with the negotiations doubt you would have any true idea what went on.
And to state as fact you know what either Tim Wilby or the Irish bidders intended is rubbish...
The difference between what you state as facts and what Hull Fc fans state as facts is that your then chairman told everyone what his intentions and hopes were.

I'm betting no one on here knows the FACTS so lets not pretend we do.
Unless anyone can provide any evidence that is.....

| So Bratfud will complete the fixtures this year.
Maybe the example the SPL are making of Rangers will be repeated in SL.....
Would Fax realistically take a spot on SL next year?
What about a Cumbrian team for 2 years, see how they go, not an established one, a new squad, playing games all over cumbria. Cumbrian Crusaders?

If I put "Bradford Bulls Rugby League" into any credit reference agency the response would be "don't be silly, they have no money, no assets and run at a constant loss"
so no, no loans, gifts or anything else from the rest of SL.
What there should be is a criminal investigation for those poor individuals that have lost their (combined) £500k, and prosecutions of the individuals involved.
