Regarding pieces of this thread (and ignoring the 20 question guessing game), has anyone any thoughts on Big Nige's podcast on the Beeb website. Bongser particularly refers his readers to 19 mins and 30 secs and to 28 mins on.

Thoughts? He doesn't say anything new.

Fair enough. I do think that that attitude is just saying 'I'll take my bat home because nobody was prepared to give the club millions of pounds" though, but you are entitled to it.

I think you're interpretation is a bit wide of the mark there. In my opinion nobody's asking the new owners to pump in millions. Just being honest and open with communication would be a good start.

I was one of the, at the time, many who would have rather gone down a league at the beginning of the season as the alternative was watching us struggle in the Championship. What's changed? We are struggling. We might survive, we might not, but I'm angry with the RFL for this situation, not the current owners who said straight up that they didn't have millions to invest. As far as I can tell from the administration process, nobody else did either.

Have you seen the editorial in today's League Express where Martyn Sadler mentions how the RFL have profited from our last period of administration and liquidation and potentially influenced who the new owners were - according to the administrator.

If you were feeling uncharitable you could point to the links that Chalmers and Wood had prior to our latest admin and wonder if something untoward were going on.

But what would the RFL have to gain from having Chalmers and Lowe in Place now?
If we carry on as we are or get relegated the fans will be gone and the club will go bust again..

We are a good few weeks on from when I started this thread but yet still nobody is any wiser, still no investment in the playing squad, no communication and no real progress after the initial wins and Leeds loan players, infact we have gone backwards.

There has got to be something that we are all missing?

If there is it's well hidden.

As for the Cha-Lo relatitionship with the RFL we know Chalmers and Wood have worked together in the past whereas perhaps other failed bidders didn't have such a relationship. Perhaps Wood wanted someone at the club they knew and could influence? The administrator wasn't happy with the role the RFL played in the process. We'll never know the truth but it does make you wonder.

Meanwhile we're treated like mushrooms.

What we are missing is the fact that with only three weeks to the season we didn't exist. The disruption this would have caused was avoided by what has happened. Imagine if a conversation went something like this. "Hey, we need someone with some rugby experience to pretend to take the Bulls on and fulfill this years fixtures. We can pretend that Geoff Toovey will be coach. This will make sure that all the fans are kept on board to swell the coffers of the other CH teams."
ChaLo : "What happens next year".
RFL: "That doesn't matter because we are restructuring to make sure we have Toulouse and Toronto in SL"
ChaLo: "What about the Bulls?"
RFL "What about the Bulls"
