Perhaps Green has sold it on or brokered a deal with one of the other parties.

Not sure if something like that could happen so quickly or even be possible?

Perhaps the Duffman has been to Alton Towers

Now that would be interesting

Some Bulls fans are giving Marc Green a bit of stick on Twitter. It's quite embarrassing really.

As of yet, the bloke hasn't done anything wrong to warrant the negativity directed at him. We should as least wait to see what the current situation is before trying to force answers out of him.

Re: Ownership and twists : Tue Mar 25, 2014 7:45 pm  

Surely all that is being said is that Marc Green is the 'next best offer' on the table for the Administrator - now that BB2014 Lamb have fallen by the wayside?

Even once that happens, we then - and only then - move onto the stage of the RFL needing proof of funding? That's what has happened twice already, and presumably is just about to happen again.

There's no guarantee - at least on the face of it - that Green won't just fall by the wayside like the other two. Then we'll move onto the next best offer again. Rinse and repeat, until we get to someone (Mandy Koukash) who actually has some serious money.

In the meantime, the Bulls are in a state of paralysis, unable to sign players or make any progress. And the another match or matches go by with us falling behind at the foot of the table.

It has to be most cack-handed way of running a professional sport that its possible to devise

He was obviously Duffy's choice from the beginning. Conducting your business in a quiet, effective way is one thing but has he got any dosh?

Re: Ownership and twists : Tue Mar 25, 2014 7:54 pm  

Is this the same Stuart Duffy who spent the greater part of the last decade sugar coating the combined incompetence of Peter Hood and Steve McNamara?

Re: Ownership and twists : Tue Mar 25, 2014 7:56 pm  

Is Duffy still an employee? Was he one of the ones the administrator let go early on?

Re: Ownership and twists : Tue Mar 25, 2014 7:58 pm  

And the main question. How do you make money by spending £1m to get £250k back? If he can manage that trick then maybe he is the guy to take us forward.
