So you are agreeing that they were precluded from any monies from Sky ?

"LiVolsi says he has not spoken to Argyle for months despite a long-standing friendship with him, as he is one of the people owed money. LiVolsi has also pledged to meet the £500,000 owed to players for three months miss pay roll to date, and negotiate the terms of any other outstanding club debts he says are still emerging".


I'm not aware Livolsi is a $$Billionaire, but somehow he thinks nothing of offering to pay everybody up, and any more money owed.

Yet apparently David Argyle has gone bust? He's now just a Ornery guy.

His opportunity at Melbourne Storm to help pour more tens of $$Millions into that club is no doubt waiting for the time this "storm" blows over. STORM Geddit?

Was that a "yes" or a "dont know"

They're not eligible for any of the government loan, so not exactly sure where they think the money will come from.

It’s a “I’m xenophobic and I don’t care if it’s argyle or the other guy, I just want Toronto to fail”

I think being called a troll is actually a mark of honor on these threads.

I mean, who hasn't been called a troll by Donny? It's a good validation that our views are point.

It's a guess, from the king of the blaggers.

Well the ‘nuts finally out of the kernel’ Gareth Carvell has thrown the players union behind the beleaguered Wolfpack.

Asking for central funding to save them, an organisation that haven’t paid their players since June

Sorry Fartown..

I've had to climb over three trolls (or maybe two as two are the same) to get to your post. Not a nice experience

The players union are probably looking at this from the point of view that Toronto offered highly inflated wages, and the opportunity to travel and play in Canada. This opportunity isn't just for the elite players, lads who may not get to be Superleague regulars are getting opportunities with Perez at Ottawa, Livolsy is also wanting to do the same at Toronto and of course living and playing pro in New York has to have it's appeal.

The issue isn't the opportunities these clubs give young players, it's only Argylle who walked away without paying, the new man offers to pay all that up and to be fair I think Perez will honour his commitments too.

Lets hope this can become a discussion and not a troll fest

I thought you may have corrected him as his post took a quote, pared it down to something else out of context so he could troll as usual?
