Well, I'm pretty sure that last time around we were told that 'the Administrator gets the best deal for the creditors' - which was how we ended up with Green rather than Koukash.
It's obvious that Koukash has considerably more money, but offered a very poor deal for the creditors. By contrast, Green had no money (and, to be fair, never claimed he had) but offered a better deal to the creditors. It helped that he himself was the major creditor!
I agree that we are being told something different this time, with an Administrator seemingly more concerned about the longer term future than appeared to be the case last time or the time before. I wonder if the RFL have made noises about this to the Administrator? Either way, it's good to hear because it doesn't benefit anyone for us to be back in the same position in a couple of years.
