Really it is time to let it go. Without an owner with bags of money the club just can't function for any length of time and history will keep repeating. We weren't even profitable in the golden years of Super League. End it and everyone can move on.

Re: Administration Again : Mon Nov 14, 2016 12:43 pm  

It is what it is and it'll be what it'll be. Third time round I'm pretty much past caring. I hope we survive, I hope we pull in investors or a new owner. I do. But it's not even 'news' anymore and I'm beyond worrying now. I wasn't getting a full membership this year anyway due to work but I probably won't even bother with the flexi membership now. I was going to go up over the weekend to sort it out too. Glad I didn't.

I actually feel bad typing that but it is genuinely how I feel. I want us to survive but the apathy has completely set in now.

(EDIT: I can't spell )

Wonder how long it will take some clown from the press suggesting the fans take over......

Enter Rod Studd...

I was waiting until the end of the month to buy a membership and from a selfish point of view I am glad a have. God only knows what 2017 will look like for us now... if at all.

Re: Administration Again : Mon Nov 14, 2016 12:50 pm  

Yes, let's - nobody will be interested so maybe if we can raise 500k or so, that will win the bid.

I would be glad to pack in my job and work for nowt full time for the fans committee and I know many of you would be willing to chip in twenty five grand apiece for the privilege of being able to work for nothing

Indeed why don't we all go the whole hog, sell our houses and doss in the Coral Stand?

That's who my money will be on!

Can't say it's a surprise we're in this situation again can we either......

Wonder if Julian Rhodes / Mark Lawn might be interested - can't think of anyone else that might throw a few quid at it who has some semblance of connection to the City.

I went for 4 month part payment, first taken 31/10 by Visa card, second taken by standing order on 8/11. Do I have a leg to stand on regarding claiming back either payment if passes turn out not to be valid? (Even though Green said they would)

Re: Administration Again : Mon Nov 14, 2016 12:59 pm  

Seriously, is anyone remotely surprised about this? It's been on the cards for months, let's be honest.

Right now, I'm beyond caring. I haven't bought a ST as I expected this to happen, and I don't expect anyone to ride in with a pile of cash to save the day.

We are doomed

Unfortunately I think credit card payments have to be over 100 quid for protection to apply.

As far as the standing order is concerned, you will not be able to get that back

Re: Administration Again : Mon Nov 14, 2016 1:01 pm  

So how can Marc Green promise to honour the 'too good to be true' ST offer for 2018 if he doesn't buy back the club. The Bulls fans have once again been taken for a ride by a 'business man' who puts companies into admin wherever he goes, and as someone has already mentioned he registered a charge on the company when the WU order was first presented to the club. Why would any new owner give free entry for a whole SL season to 1000 fans. Surely this must leave the players up in the air as no income to the administrators means no money for the players/staff
