You can lead a horse to water but you can't climb a ladder with a bell in both hands.

Are we for sale for £1m? Do have to wonder if someone came in and said I'll take it off your hands for that price what the current board would say............


And by the above, I mean someone coming in and paying the £1m to take control....

(and I feel fine)

WTF. Where has the money from ther RFL gone? Thought that was securing our "long term future"?
I have the feeling someone has been pulling the wool over our eyes.

Sorry Mr Hood but you have completely lost the faith I had in you, what happened since the following article....

I won't be parting with any of my cash until I hear a few more honest answers as to why this has happened. And what has suddenly changed in the last couple of months, unbelievable news.

By all accounts the money from the RFL was so we could pay them back for a loan we took out.

We did not expect to have to pay this back as quickly as we expected. I get the feeling that the RFL knew we were struggling, have played an absoulte blinder in basically getting the lease of Odsal, BEFORE we went bust, and managed to get their money back that they loaned to us last year to keep us a float in the off season.

The bank have also asked us to lower our overdraft meaning we either had to pay a level of cash direct to the bank or we have little room to manouevure.

All in all, you can't really operate without cash and we are pretty much screwed.....

Either that or it's some crazy scheme to get people to the Leeds game.....

Waiting for an announcement...

:DEPRESSED:

W.T.F.

Ok, so I would be in the lucky position that I could donate £100, but my question to the club would be, assuming they raise the £1m to (presumaeably) pay next months wages and/or rent, what happens the month after. What restrucuring will magicly happen between now and the next bill to prevent the club going cap in hand in 6 months time??

more details needed I feel.

Great start to the day...not.

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid!

If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/

Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get!

Thank god only when you find a religion that passes the truth test!

Sums up a lot Fans feelings, I just wonder if a major sponsor deal(s) has fallen through recently

The Bank reducing the overdraught all of a sudden has caused this knock on effect

If Whinos pay back the Harris money that would help

Time for a Fans Forum cause if they want the Fans money a lot of questions need to be answered

Did it affect the Players regarding the Salford match??

You would have to offer this as a shareholding surely. Not a donation.

Begs the question what's been funding the cut price season tickets?

Not forgetting the 3.5 years of season ticket I have left remaining, what has happened to that? They already have a bit of my cash in advance, what is to say that I won't be just pouring my cash down the plug hole. I seriously hope they're planning on calling an urgent fans meeting, the release on the website just isn't enough.
