Releases his media splash of offering 10 million worth of shares the moment he finishes his presentation demanding full share of funding and before any conclusions can be made? The Momentum type pro Toronto vocal minority place their Dollars blindly into the fund and if Toronto are denied funding and/or expelled then he walks away blaming everyone but his crazy idea and the usual suspects scream Flat Capper,M62 Corridor ad infinitum. Meanwhile all the financial guarantees and assurances given to ensure admittance are washed away and the grand plan is achieved. Donald Trump school of business 101. If he does run rings round the other Chairmen then they deserve it.

Argyle himself has presented Toronto's excuses for myriad misdemeanors. Reported it's just finished now? What exactly was said and how the owners proceed is anyone's guess

Ask donny, he's a good guesser.

Plus access the Sky monies. It will be a great con if succeeds.
Once they were admitted they instantly became hard to remove even when not fufillling one promise and not paying players/suppliers etc.
Get rid now

I'd say he makes it up as he goes along, say it enough times and you'll believe it yourself works for him.

Breaking News Statement from Super League

Following Toronto Wolfpack’s withdrawal from Betfred Super League 2020 earlier this week, the Super League Board agreed this afternoon that the club’s record for this season should be removed.

Points earned in matches involving Toronto Wolfpack will be deducted, and for and against tallies will be adjusted accordingly.

Individual players’ statistics will remain unaffected - but Man of Steel points earned in fixtures involving the club will be erased.

Super League and The RFL Board will now give further consideration to Toronto Wolfpack’s future ahead of the 2021 season.

Well Wayne is on toast yet again, but the more important thing is the truth and the facts. As a Billionaire, $$30Million was nothing to Argyle, but if that is how much it costs to get a Transatlantic NA team into Superleague just to come rock bottom then what would it have took to see them carry on for several seasons more to try to establish themselves, let alone 20 seasons more to establish a Canadian grass roots game and player development? Now that IS about a $$Billion dollars.

It begs the question, posed when Wilby and Perez turned up with no rich owners in tow launching New York and Ottawa. If their clubs are treading the same pioneering path good old David Argyle trod they need to find people to give them $$ tens of Millions with no prospect of return. Anyome want to answer that one? Having tracked David Argyles spend and return at Toronto which North Americans would throw oceans of money down the drain for a game foreign to them?

Wayne's a great bloke I am sure, but some of the people promoting these phoney clubs in the RL press should know better and should have called it all out for exactly what it is..............................Oh sorry for exactly what it was. It was a bit of fun for Argylle and Perez whilst melbourne Storm or another NRL club gave Australian RL fan and $$Billionaire investor David Argyle his real dream. A place on the board of an Australian NRL club.
