thinking about this announcement, AG wouldnt bother with this if you werent going to get the liscence... is it possible that he has had a little word from RFL that we will get a liscence. otherwise he is wasting his money dewveloping a championship ground, which isnt a good business move for anyone ... just a thought

Yeah but we find out whether we are in sl in july so we wont have started renovating the ground before then...

I'd hazard an educated guess your getting judged on whats in on April 1st not what happens in June

If it was in on April 1st, why wait till June to hold the meeting?

Perhaps because for once we are playing Cas at the PR game and left the announcement till now to not give others a chance to react in time.
It's not the announcement I was hoping for but it could yet prove to be extremely important to our future.

The worrying thing for me is that we may have oversold the meeting and annoyed the very people that we are hoping will join the membership schemes.

Yes I agree to certain extent but probably in their mind, it is the most important news, considering if we get the boot this time, I can't see us returning. They should have known though, people would be dreaming up all kinds of OTT scenarios that were never going to happen.

I don't know, did anyone with more than 2 brain cells really think WR was going to be sold for £ 200 billion.

So the warning sign were there throughout. Pens on the table (which i clocked straight away) then a common theme throughout the presentations that were focused on YOU the fans contributing towards us getting a licence and YOU making the bigwigs at Red Hall stand up and listen.

I seriously think they got the two main agenda points the wrong way round. First i would have bouyed peoples emotions with the news that Belle Vue was being developed to help is with our tick in the box for the ground issue, then i would have hit them with a "by the way we also need more members signing up otherwise the ground improvements are negated by the fact we don't have 5000 members".

Deflated on the way out, angry on the drive back, disappointed now.

Oh and yes i did sign up!

Glover's job is to develop the club and keep us in Super League. The announcement and other promises made have taken us closer. If all he is guilty of is overselling the meeting, I'll forgive him that.
