Hood and co didn't say they'd made a dogs breakfast of it at the time of the pledge but quite obviously they had.

Checking with the RFL how much of the loan would be going back and with the bank as to how all this might affect the overdraft would seem to be fairly important things to do before proceeding.

All reasons why I'd be reluctant to see Hood back.


Isn't it accepted that the club were losing £100k a month by the time they entered administration?

Considering what had already entered the public domain, surely there was an obligation on the shareholders to call an EGM, oust the board that had brought about such a situation and examine the books.

The idea that Hood and his buisness plan, backed by a mystery Chinese billionaire were going to rescue the club from a fiasco of his own making is risible.

The 'we'll never know' theory is simply silly.

OK, so there was no sudden blind panic to raise half a million or die.

I must have misunderstood.


But we raised the half a million....and died. It wasn't a one off situation, it was systemic, month by month losing of money.

Just slightly off-topic, but I can't help feel the same about Lee St Hilaire, he seems to have been a mainstay throughout our on-field down turn!


I've said it before: all this started when the Joynt's Voluntary Tackle thread was deleted. Pumpetypump is to blame for all of this.

I am behind most things. My finest moment was driving the white Fiat uno through that paris tunnel, but this comes a close second.

I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying.

Why didn't they then purchase the club before OK if they were so keen.

Just read that myself....
He's angry about the fine imposed on him for stating the truth regarding the Rfl and sky tv deal.

It would read a whole lot better if you replace the word 'need' with the word 'had' :D
