Where did Hirst announce it?

Call me pessimistic, but when something like this isn't confirmed anywhere, the doubts do creep in...

He did a very lengthy 1 hour long interview basically said everything was signed and sealed and they would be taking on the lease from the 1st november which was appax a week after the interview- i think this was then transcribed on the website

Cheers, I'll cash my "being on the other side of the world" excuse in for missing that then!

Bower must be desperate for clicks! I'm sure the knuckle draggers will lap that narrative up. I must have missed the section about improvements being made by the club since the lease was transferred.

Anyway it is concluded, hopefully onwards and upwards.

Definitely shoddy click bait.

The lease was concluded last October.

Peddling the RFL agreed spin on how they asset stripped a vulnerable member club.

RL journalism in this country is on its knees. Here is another example of the clickbait nonsense that Total RL/League Express/LRL post on a regular basis.

Sounds like a classic case of sour grapes from Bower. Some journalists can’t handle being frozen out, so they flip their stance just to stay relevant. It must be exhausting for him, trying to twist every positive into a negative just to push his anti-club agenda. You can always tell when it’s personal—when even the smallest compliment feels like it's being dragged out of them, like they’d rather swallow nails than admit the club is doing something right.

The RFL technically got the lease for nothing. They essentially took it because they had been down right moronic to lend Hood all that money under the table which he couldn't pay back. So they took the lease, all bad decisions effecting the club can be traced back to the RFL sticky fingers in 2010 and that loan and ultimately the 14 years which have followed.

Yeah should've allowed us to go into admin with the lease included in the assets. We might have attracted a better owner than Omar Khan and everything may have been different. Sliding doors eh?
