I've emailed Mr Green this morning to urge him to be more open and transparent about the current situation at Odsal.

Yes, we are a championship club and have to cut our cloth accordingly, but many supporters are hanging back on purchasing season tickets whilst the financially tight situation remains.

The latest statement from Steve Ferres about the sustainability of the club is interesting. He openly admits that the club need 5000 membership holders, yet last season gone only eight games saw crowds of over 5000 at Odsal.

I've suggested to Green that he consider the option to host a supporters forum open to everyone.

If nothing is done then I fear for a prolonged period in the Championship with ever decreasing commercial and corporate income, thus leading to the forced option to move to part time.

One final point is that Green isn't going to invest then maybe it's time to get on the phone to Richard Lamb or Mrs Koukash.

We could have forums like you used to hold all smoke and bulllshit.

may have only got over 5k for eigth out of 15 games at home last year. But the average for the regular season was 5222 so pretty much on target. average increases to over 5450 if you include the 4 playoff home games. Seem to remember the 5k membership ferres quoted was for SL sustainability rather than championship as well.

Not much point ringing Mr Lamb as he didnt have any money of his own to invest either and Mrs Koukash put the lowest bid in of any of the four bidders at the time so she was never serious either.

What's Andrew Bennet up to these days, often see him in Cue Gardens before home games. He seems a very decent chap, I wonder what his role (if any) was in the decline of the Bulls and first administration

Why don't you ask Mr Caisley about the decline, he orchestrated it.

I'm sure someone told me that Bennett used to essentially work for free. First and foremost, he was a fan of the team, which is why you still see him at home and away games, despite all that went on.

In this situation that's not as cut and dried as you make out. If like she said significant amount of money would have been spent on the squad you would want to get the remaining assets of the club as cheap as possible.

Of course, flanked by the teflon coated weasel, telling the very people who contribute to their wages what they wanted to hear, without a little thing like the "truth" getting in the way.

Shameless pair of tubes.

At least we held forums, open and free forums.

Open and free yes but so managed to avoid any meaningful questions or just spouting non truths Leeds wanting 3.2 mil compensation for Harris for example.
