.... well that's no good. We want a decent rugby league stadium, not a bloody supermarket lol

One earlier forum member (Mr Hot Dog) mentioned that a new stadium, or a revamped Odsal is la la land. As always ur entitled to ur opinion, but can we say 2 things, the first somewhat whimsically and the second a more serious comment and proposal:

1) La la land did after all win many Oscars, and
2) If you want to meet with us to review our ideas then let us know. Same applies to other members. It can be arranged in the next week or so.

We weren't inviting you mate; we were meant to be principally extending the offer to Mr Dog.

Anyhow, folk seem to want to know who 'we' are, and we are willing to meet some of you. Some of us should be known to you. And given recent and ongoing events you may be relieved to hear that none of us are New Zealanders.

Been in meetings all day mate.

We did have a mob # contact for you from you know who, but out of respect we deleted it.

So, could you kindly send us your mob # via PM and one of us will call you. Let us know a couple of dates and times when is good to call you.

When we speak we can tell you about two more alleged crimes that have just been unearthed and brought to our attention. Sadly, and despite what some forum skeptics may say, we are not exaggerating, but as we are not from the authorities (or the CPS) then it's for others to consider how to investigate such new allegations.

Cheers

You are correct and im still raging, hower after having time to reflect, the nature of my previous message was overly agressive and for that i appologies.

Like many on hear the last few days have done me in completely. Im sick of being lied to year after year after year. Chalmers can go jump as far as im concerned. Hes not a leader hes a coward who has buried his head in the sand these last couple of months. The sooner hes gone the better.

I do stand by what i said though. You coming on here spouting off does more harm than good. Sadly some will believe everything you post and this is how rumours get started
Can i politely ask, unless you have something factual and evidance to back up your claims can you refrain from stiring the pot and causing unrest amongst a fan base that you claim to be a part of.


Thank you. Your apology is accepted.

We note your comments. It is NOT our intention to cause harm.

We will be drip feeding evidence, but have to be careful, thus explaining the cloak and dagger stuff. There is a whole host of poop going down at the club most of which we cannot comment on because it may prejudice some enquiries. Yes, we are being somewhat evasive, but we trust you can understand why.

As for the sale of shares, it may happen this week. It may not. If it does we know c/o a reliable source (and again - like a scratched record - we presently cannot reveal our source as they are a 'whistleblower') that:

a) the consortium would include CB (as is already known), Rams owner, MS (albeit in a consulting role), and another guy, MW; who upon further enquiries does not even appear to exist - we are not kidding !;

b) in broad terms the proposed new consortium's draft business plan appears for the main part to mirror what Chalmers was doing (e.g increase season ticket sales etc), but with tighter financial controls put into place. At this stage we understand CB is going to creditors and staff one by one and trying to coerce them into doing a deal on the substantial debt that is owed. In our humble opinion that is not good or conventional business practice. Have they never heard of a CVA? That said there is without doubt a need to cut the cloth and to be fair any bunch of charlies could cut the club's (or B Bulls 2017 Limited's) losses and they could with a firm hand on the tiller conceivably stabilise the situation over the next 1-2 year period. As is likely already known the club's £175K central funding for 2020 will have already been swallowed up by debts and the pension 'admin oversight' etc., and

c) There appears to be no sight (yet) of a suitably wealthy financial backer behind the consortium.

Who is pulling the strings behind this so called consortium is for you guys (and lasses) to speculate on, but we suspect the same person has been the puppet master behind the scenes since the day AC was introduced to takeover the Bulls brand and playing licence from the ailing Marc Green's BBNL in mid to late 2016.

Other than the above we can confirm that one of the club's largest creditors is the electricity supplier who are owed in excess of £75K.

Some of what is said above may already be on social media, and if it is we apologise.

Do we have any positive news. Well CB does have a record from Wakey of helping to turn around a club's ailing fortunes. That said, it is unclear as to whether he has yet to fully grasp (or been told of) the size of the task at hand with the Bulls, and allegedly his current business plan doesn't on face value stack up to much. He also has said that he doesn't intend to have a hands on role. Well , somebody better do!

If we were betting folk (and of course MS is) then we would sadly foresee that B Bulls 2017 may sadly enter into administration within the next 2-4 months. We may be wrong, so let's hope not. And who knows there may be other major investors with significant funds on tap waiting in the wings !
