Agree to an extent BSC - but think that is RFL's role in approving any change in ownership. From MC's point of view as an exiting shareholder of a Ltd Co, there's nothing really is there? Fair enough check the new guy has sufficient brass to take on the debts etc but he can walk away pretty quickly and cleanly if he wanted. In terms of supply chain, current commitments - they remain with the company.


He can just walk away, but their point has always been they are custodians of the club and as such feel the responsibility to make sure its passing to good hands.
Otherwise you end up with a Pearman with invisible money or Glover who didn't really know how to run a sports club.

The deal isn't far enough through to be announced yet but I guess they've been forced to update because of the mischief makers muddying the waters.


Was this also placed on Facebook because I have not seen anything.

these mischief makers could have actually saved our club but you keep believing what you want and towing the club line.

So by mischief makers I'm talking about the people who started rumours that aren't true.
How are they saving the club?

Sorry to be the fun sponge but I think it breaches the AUP to copy the actual interview as its a subscription site so copyrighted.

I've added the link to Facebook where someone reading the comments may or may not see a transcript of the interview.
