At least you'll not need to run the fantasy league in 2020. Every cloud....

Changed now to BBBBB LTD.


Not quite....both BBBBB LTD and the Orcas are shown as PWSC and both as owning 75% or more of shares or voting rights? BBBBB has 2 officers: Kimberely Stather (sole shareholder) and Charlotte Louise Monkman. Not sure where Wood fits in all this?

That's actually somewhat of a fallacy, bulls2487.

The truth is that it was Nigel Wood who on 3 January 2017 mistakenly announced to the press and media c/o a bogus press release that Marc Green's BBNL was 'liquidated' (see below):

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/38418199

The truth is that BBNL entered into liquidation in February 2017, as evidenced on Companies House website.

Everbody fell for the RFL's (or in reality Nigel's) charade. Worse still the RFL, and in particular Nigel, elected not to correct their blatant error.

Why was this? Because it paved the way to allow the RFL's (and Nigel's) chosen one, Chalmers, to very shortly thereafter be gift wrapped the club, its remaining assets and an operating licence for zilch, and for BB17 to be incorporated on 13 January 2017.

Given our RFL insider connection, 'we' have 100% proof of the above, but have been advised at this stage not to upload it on to a public forum. A court of law would be a far better place to make such a disclosure. Moreover, with the benefit of litigation privilege then 'we' would be suitably protected in respect of such disclosure and related assertions as part of for example any possible anticipated legal proceedings!

Regardless of the above legal mumbo jumbo, the fact is that what happended to the Bulls, in particular towards the end of Marc Green's reign, was to all intents and purposes a scandal, and to date we have only hinted at circa 20% of the truth in this regard.


Thanks Nestegg (first on here im guessing) has a bit of a chip on his shoulder at times

Wonder if she's related to the recent University Challenge legend. Or maybe she's a really poor superhero...


On a more serious note, a quick google shows that Ms. Monkman actually used to have what appears to be a H.R. style role at the RFL. Edit: Never mind, found it. She was Ralph Rimmer's P.A. and is now Secretary of BBBBBBBBB Ltd https://www.loverugbyleague.com/post/steve-prescott-man-of-steel-petition-handed-to-rfl/

Interesting that "Nestegg Bulls RL" has just been added. And the main director is listed as none other than Bruce Craig, the multi-millionaire owner of Bath Rugby! None of that is true. Or is it?! No.

Surprisingly your not a milion miles away Pumpety ..... you're a smart cookie with an excellent sense of humour. So may we politefully suggest that you don your best thinking hat .... and who knows you might get it right ! Another obscure clue ..... England.

As for BBBBB Ltd it's based out of what appears to be a Council House; nowt wrong with that, but when Charles paid a visit to the property at lunchtime he got a surprisingly hostile reception ..... :BEAT:

Never trust a man who, when left alone in a room with a tea cosy, doesn't try it on.

Yeah. It looks like she works for a company called Global Rugby League Solutions Ltd. who has one officer: Ms. Wendy Wood.

Popular surname that is, at the moment...

How dare you infer that Ralph's (former?) PA is involved with Nigel Wood and the Bulls c/o BB17 - scandalous :twisted:
