Hmm, creates more questions than it answers. We are in a position to be turning away investment...?

To be fair do you not think he's not had a hand in all along?
I can't see how you can moan it's like buying a scratch card hoping for a tenner, then winning £10k and moaning.
I want us to be the best we can be who cares how we get there?
I for one am sick of been the butt of RL jokes.

We could really do without another period like we had last Christmas. Periods of elation immediately followed by bad news, a complete emotional rollercoaster, constantly checking forums, Twitter and Facebook for updates.

Yesterdays forum and fairly positive feeling followed by the Koukash Article and then the Bulls quick fire response better not be setting the tone for the whole off season. I suppose with the court case looming in January as well it would be naive to think we might have a period of normality where we could focus on the rugby.

Difficult to answer without knowing who is making the offer and how sensible that offer is and their motives for doing so.

Nail firmly on the head. If they are turning away they genuinely do have confidence in following through. Or on the flip side they have been given assurances about the end game e.g. Licensing

I went to the meeting last night (overweight grey haired, bespectacled soul standing at the back of the room), and (IMHO) I heard a very professional delivery from an owner of a business who was desperate to offer a share of his business to the greater market place.
The forum was a great selling job, not only to most of the assembled faithful, but also to prospective partners.
We assume that there's no spare cash available to the current owners, so what better than a sales pitch to attract would-be investors ( god help them).
Hope its not an overweight, bespectacled, balding bloke with loads of "experience in the world of rugby league!

So either ac offered to sell, or someone offered to invest, maybe a month ago, maybe a week ago. Someone is lying or not telling the whole truth, and someone is looking to maximize mischief/embarrassment.

Not sure what to make of it really, I'll wait and see if koucash tweets in response, surely he won't be able to resist.

If someone approached ac and he said no then I'm not surprised it wasn't mentioned last night. If ac approached koucash and was knocked back, I'm not surprised it wasn't mentioned last night....either way, I'm not surprised it wasn't mentioned.

Hence the phrase, more questions than answers! Someone is fibbing, maybe more than one person. Either way, I'm not filled with confidence.

Someone is telling porkies here - or just being economical with the truth

Will the true slim shady please stand up

Possibly more red herrings than "Midsummer Murders" ?
