What ever MC has invested it’s still more than anyone else has offered during the last 10 years. There must be a lot of secret millionaires kicking about this forum. Let’s hope when he leaves there’s a knight in shining amour willing to plough money in.

Carter hasn’t put anywhere close to £2m into the club, that’s his fantasist figure

I read somewhere that the only way he could reach that figure is by charging the club for unpaid CEO wages X 10 years

Whatever we are certainly after the last few seasons not going to forget him and maybe for what he leaves behind.

Look at the accounts, apart from that his net worth isn’t much more than that

So worse case, he invested £2.5 million?
Are you trying to imply that isn't good enough?

No, not implying that at all.

Merely asking an open question by asking if any investment has been put into the squad in the past 10 years.

Also pointing out that reporting a debt of £2m, when it was mentioned 10 years ago that the debt was much lower. I get that a debt cab be missed somewhere by missing invoices etc, it happens, but £1.5m.

Sorry it doesn't stack up

I know of two Hollywood "B" film stars who like investing in no hope football clubs who have just won promotion after 15 years in the doldrums (sound familiar?), gained millions of fans local and worldwide in the process, and become folk heroes in a small Welsh city. I wonder if they want to follow that up with a similar exercise involving a failing Yorkshire RLFC.

We had Richard Harris albeit no investment involved.
