Is it beyond the wit of MAN not to go into shares with a potential buyer who would own it as a consortium with a view to a package that would build a proper stadium of the future and then RL big games could also be held at Odsal .. it being accessible from the motorways, with plenty of accommodation nearby...

They say a significant statement will be made tomorrow. At this point in time it must be known what is going to be said.
Why are people immediately thinking it is liquidation. Significant could also mean big, surprising, unexpected and so on.
My money is still on a good announcement tomorrow - with a bit of a surprise thrown in there maybe from the RFL in the way of give and take from both parties. I am not in the camp of the RFL want us to fold. I still believe they will do their best to get a stable owner in charge.
That's how I feel and fingers crossed I am right.

If I listen to the administrator, I feel the announcement may be positive. Then I look at that statement from the RFL and I wonder why, if the club is about to be finalised and sold, why did they need to put that statement out?

The statement is a clear "we're not to blame" which makes me expect the worst.

I would take anyone owning the club at this moment. I don't wanna see the club go under.

If we fold, who is going to provide the majority of the England team in future?

Never mind, I'm sure the rfl can rely on those teams that can't be bothered to invest in youth

FWIW, as someone who decided not to be involved in this go round the sun, walked away and who checks back in once every three days or so, I am still largely positive. I'm prepared to be disappointed but I expect good news.

What a caper this is turning out to be!

It's either a super positive development, millionaire Wembley of the North bright future...

Or lock up the gates and use it for landfill

We could compromise and get someone to fill it with money.

In fact I believe Tigertot brought his considerable experience to bear and once told us we could get someone to pay us to allow them to fill it with money.

The main benefit of owning the lease would be the ability to borrow against it. Anyone looking to do that probably hasn't got much cash at the table. That sounds like the start of administration 4.

4 bids for the bulls, surely they all can't want to but the lease asap. Maybe in time.
