What absolutely amazing news! Mainly due to getting ridding of Pearson but also because finally the club will be owned by a rugby league man. The futures bright..... The futures black n white!

Don't get my hopes up.

Great news!!! Surely have to be one of top 2 or 3 richest clubs in SL if that net worth is true??

I imagine one or two people who turned us down recently, might be kicking themselves now.

It's taken a while to happen but it was worth it. What fantastic news. Owners worth a combined half a billion quid.

Very exciting future ahead and who knows, our own stadium.

Thanks to Adam Pearson, he's had his critics on here but he loves the club and I doubt the Wembley wins would have happened without him.

Important question...

Are we now the Man City of Rugby League?

Honestly wasn't expecting it to be a 100% takeover and certainly not with that kind of wealth behind the owners. Best thing we could have wished for. As grateful as I am for what AP did for us, it was time for new blood at the top and a new direction.

birds eye or costello? haha

seriously though amazing news, wasnt expecting 100% takeover! thanks Adam for 2016 & 17, but time is right to sell up. Expect pass sales to have a boost too with this news.
